Independent Living Communities in Irving, TX

"My brother moved to Solstice Senior Living at Grapevine. We chose it because of its proximity to where I live and I was very impressed with the place and its upkeep. It was spotless. They have lots of activities. My brother's in a wheelchair and they are elevator accessible. They have physical therapy on-site. Everybody seems very caring and very nice. My brother said the food was delicious. He needed to socialize more and I thought it was a great place. They do ice cream socials, they do bingo, they have people come in and help teach them to use their smartphones or computers, they have a library, different activities, and a happy hour. They are meticulous about keeping the place spotless. It's very comfortable. It's very nice and it was very affordable for me. I didn't think I would be able to put my brother somewhere like this, so it worked out well."

"This is a great place. Everyone is very friendly. I say it starts with management who encourage and are so welcoming. From my first meeting with Peggy and then Megan meeting with us to show my Dad around, we were sold. All of the staff do a great job. My Dad felt like it was his new home. Unfortunately, due to health issues, he had to move to a different community. He says his goal is to get strong enough to return to Eden Estates."

"I toured Emerson On Harvest Hill. Everything was nice. I didn't have anything bad to say about it. They were polite and answered all the questions that I had for them. They provide three meals a day. The facility was nice, neat, and much more than I expected."

"Belmont Village Turtle Creek had very large apartments, but it was very expensive. The staff who toured me was nice. It was a very nice facility, and I liked where it was located."

"Lived in a patio home for 4 years and enjoyed every minute of it. The home was spacious and comfortable. Full kitchen, laundry room, separate dining room. Large 2 bed 2 bath with HUGE CLOSETS, large living room, and a lovely front porch with a small front yard. Large enough for my flower pots. yard art, and Christmas decorations. The staff run by Nancy is Excellent as is Jenelle the concierge, Hector the chef, every staff member was dedicated, kind and knowledgeable.. they organized and ran so o o many fun programs everyday. Thank you all for your dedication in helping Senior live their better lives."

"We're very happy with Edgemere. It's very clean. The people are pleasant. They take good care of us. The meals are good. Maintenance and housekeeping are all good. They have a Bible study that we go to. They have a lot. We do movies and stuff. It's worth the money."

"We loved Briarview and if we could afford it, that's where I would put my mother. It is private pay. It's an assisted living place where most of the clients will move over to the memory care facility afterward. It was very nice. We sat and chatted with Janice for over an hour and a half. I knew that if we had the money, I think my mother would love it. We saw the floor plans, but we didn't sit down and eat the food. We talked to a couple of people. They just loved it there. My mother would have to be in memory care. My very first impression of the staff was outstanding. It didn't smell like a place that was trying to hide anything. That would be where I would want to stay if it were me and that's where I would like for my mother to stay if we have the money. It would cost us anywhere from $5000 to $9000 a month to put her there and we don't have that money and they're only private pay. That's the downside. You first go in, they make you feel welcome. We talked to another gentleman whose parents had been there for a while. The staff seemed happy to see their clients. The memory care is on the opposite side of the grounds and it's a locked facility. I liked it. What I saw was great."

"I toured The Retreat Senior Living. It was a very nice place. The staff was very nice. The rooms that I saw were roomy and spacious. They had an outdoor heated swimming pool, and the courtyard was just gorgeous."

"The bedrooms at Emerson at Rosemeade Park were just too small. The community was nice and clean and everybody working there was very engaging. The only problem we found was the bedrooms were too tiny for the furniture that my sibling needed to put into the apartment. Other than that, the place was beautiful. It was very well kept up. The dining area was very clean and it seemed that the people are very engaging."

"I toured Signature Pointe. They have very nice and courteous employees there. The people that live there are very nice and friendly. The whole environment looked very clean and very nice. The apartments were nice and clean. They had a lot of space. They always had something going on which was good. I enjoyed that. They have a nice lake outside. You can see the ducks and all that, so it's very, very nice."

"I visited Meadowstone Place. It was wonderful. I saw a beautiful apartment, a beautiful pool, gym, and they served me a beautiful lunch. The staff was wonderful. I met a few people. I met the chef and the director. Everybody was nice and professional. The rooms are very comfortable and very nice. It has hardwood floors and has a private balcony."

"I liked the Tradition - Lovers Lane very much. I looked at independent living. I think by the time I move I may go into assisted living, but I loved it. The rooms were very nice. They had an art studio because I paint. Everything was very clean and neat. I have not had a meal there, but I hear the food is very good. I haven't really met anybody or had anything to eat there, but I was impressed. I liked everything. Why I really looked there is because it was right next to Central Market and I love Central Market. The woman who toured me couldn't have been nicer. I met a couple of people who work there and they were very nice, too. She was excellent. She asked all the questions, and she showed me everything that I was interested in."

"I will move into The Reserve at North Dallas. I liked it because it was very clean and nice, and there were a lot of people who worked there in the hallway. The room was very nice. We looked at the room, and a friend of mine came with me. The lady who helped us was excellent. Her name's Brittany. She answered all our questions, and she wasn't pushy. They have a refrigerator and a stove. They have a full kitchen, and they also have washers and dryers. They drove across town to come to pick me up because I was wheelchair-bound, and I didn't have a way to get over there. So, they used their vehicle and came over across town, picked me up, and took me over to the place. Then, I took a tour, and they brought me home. The food was good, but they accidentally brought me one of the wrong things."

"Atria Carrollton was just as nice as the other place, but the location was good because it's near to where I'm living now and it's convenient. The staff was friendly and detail-oriented. They offered food, but I didn't try it. This facility was probably the largest out of all the ones that we looked at."
