Assisted Living Communities in San Marcos, TX

"I toured Alexis Pointe. I liked that it's in a small town, and it felt very warm. The staff seemed to know all of the folks. They were very open talking to me, and I like the three levels of care in one facility. I only saw one room. They were fairly full. They had one that had just come available, but it had not been cleaned out yet so, I didn't get a real sense of it. It was adequate. Knowledgeable and kind staff. I talked to the intake person. And then I talked to the person that had responsibility for memory care. And they were all very professional. I saw some activities in the memory care wing, and they had an activity director talking to a couple of women."

"I love the staff, and I like that it was kind of a home. There's a nice grassy courtyard out at the back. I would rate them highly because of the staff and the activities. They offered me a meal, I saw it and it looked good. They have a nice back porch with rocking chairs and a nice yard to walk around in. The cleanliness was good. It was kind of far away for us, but we felt like my relative was very well taken care of there, and happy."

"I liked Brookdale New Braunfels a lot. I enjoyed it. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was and how nice the people were. I liked the model that they showed me and what my mother's living quarters would look like. The staff was very friendly and seemed very nice. Everybody seemed happy there. However, some of their air-conditioning ducts didn't have vents on them for some reason. I don't know if they're cleaning them or what, but they did not have vents on them. That's the only complaint I have. They need a little touchup paint on a couple of doors, but that was it."

"GOLDEN AGE HOME ASSISTED LIVING gave my mom exceptional care. She enjoyed the other residents, the activities and the helpful staff. She was given more food than she could eat and absolutely loved the soups! My mom was very happy living here!!"

"My tour experience of Buda Oaks Assisted Living and Memory Care was wonderful. It was very informative. We were able to tour the whole facility. It's small. They have a maximum of 66 residents and have lots of living room-type spaces for them. There's a library, an outdoor area, and a gardening area. It's home-like and very comfortable. The dining area looked very nice. They have a menu that is out. It has some standard things that are always there, and there's a main dish that changes. You can choose their main dish or you can choose from their standing menu. They had quite a good variety. I thought the units were quite nice and spacious. The staff who gave the tour was friendly and informative. I thought the place was fantastic. They had a PT room, too."

"Village on the Park Onion Creek was chosen because my mother has an outside entrance with a patio -- we can go to the patio and visit her, so we don't have to go into the building -- and also the price. The main thing was the accessibility to visit. The staff members seem pretty nice. The room is quite large with a separate bedroom, nice windows, and a kitchenette. With COVID, the activities are extremely limited. They have exercise class, bingo, and she has joined a riders club. They were the nicest facility for the value."

"My brother with Dementia lived there for over a year. We had such a wonderful experience with Dave , Theresa and the staff. The food is cooked from scratch every day. The small intimate setting was perfect for my Brother. I would recommend this facility and staff to anybody looking for a more hands on type of care. Monte Armour, Kyle Tx"

"Ledgestone Senior Living was nice, but it was too far away from my family and everything. I don't have anything bad to say about it. The people were very friendly. They have many, many activities. I like that they recycle, and that they have an onsite physical therapist and equipment. I am looking for independent living with access to assisted living as needed. The staff was very nice. At almost every end of the hallway, they had a little table for games and puzzles, and so forth scattered everywhere. They had many, many, many activities."

"I will move into Sodalis Austin. It's outstanding. I couldn't be happier. They were just very, very professional. I met several staff members who were super nice. Everything just went well. The rooms and dining area were clean and spacious. I met the food services director - super nice. If everything goes and falls into place, this will be ideal. It's what I'm looking for. The staff who gave the tour was very professional. Stephanie was the director and also a nurse. She was very on the ball and compassionate. The facility was clean, neat, and smelled great. It's very nice because it's a square setup. So, the outside area is accessible from two or three different exits. It's very nice, spacious, and well-kept."

"I like Brookdale Beckett Meadows very much. It was very nice. They had a resident dog there. It seemed good. The staff was awesome. I saw some activities. They had a place where you can fold laundry if that made you happy or hold a baby."

"We were very impressed with The Brooks of Cibolo Senior Living. Everything about it was top-notch. The people were nice. The facility was relatively new. The location was good. The lady who helped us was great. The apartments we saw were the perfect size for my father. It felt clean and well-kept."

"My mother will be moving into Brookdale Gaines Ranch. I chose it because of the look and feel of the place. The residents looked happy and seemed to be enjoying the place and they were out and about and active. The staff was friendly and caring, and we had good communication, so far. It's a very nice facility with a lot of amenities. They have a gym, salon, indoor pool, courtyard outside, walking trail, pet park, poker room, and deli. They had more than anybody else."

"I had an in-person tour of SoCo Village. Their facility is approximately three years old, going into its third year, so the facility is very new and fresh. I was able to see the dining area where they come for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have a variety of menus for each meal time. They have an area for gatherings in case your family members want to celebrate or do something. The courtyard is very lovely. They offer some gardening that can be done nearby. They have a salon and a physical therapy area. They have several different options for your living quarters in the assisted living area. I'm particularly interested in the one bedroom. It was a model that I saw, which was very nicely done. I like the services that they offer, like how there's no additional cost for medicine management. They offer various discounts, which I found to be very helpful. The staff member was very knowledgeable and friendly. She was able to answer all of my questions."
