"Woodhaven Village was gorgeous. Love it. However, they require the food plan, which means that we're looking more towards $4,000 a month. My mother weighs 100 pounds. She does not eat breakfast. Everything we looked at with the full meal plan was not anything we were even remotely interested in. Woodhaven is opening up a 55 plus, but they are requiring a one-year lease, and we would like something a little bit more flexible. The amenities are gorgeous, beautiful, and in a very well kept area."

"I toured The Lakes at Woodhaven Village. It's very well taken care of. It's gated. It has a great pool, not only just the pool. They have a hot tub and they also have laps where you can swim laps. There are all kinds of games and things. There's a coffee bar. There's all kinds of stuff. The apartment itself was very nice."

"I toured Heritage Tomball. It was very pleasant. I had a young lady named Mary. She was very straightforward, very polite, and very pleasant to talk to. She answered my questions. The reason I went back the second time was because my mom was asking for a different floor plan, and so I had only looked at it the very first time. They were very small, just a bedroom, which my mom did not want, so I went back a second time just to look at a bigger room. Mary was there and still once again spent plenty of time with me. I didn't feel rushed like I was with some of the other places. The only thing that I did not like was its one story and my mom is in a wheelchair. In order for her to get to whatever room she would be in the dining room is quite a waste. It's a very, very long hall. That's my only issue. So, I mean, that's not that big of a deal. She could probably call for help because it might take her a while, and she might miss lunch or dinner by the time she got there. The heritage seems to be reasonable, and Mary even said that she could possibly get the rental down even a little bit more for us, so nobody else had ever said that to me before. No complaints. The location is great, right by the hospital, and right across from my doctor's office, if she needs a female doctor or anything like that, and about 20 minutes from me. The facility didn't smell bad. Everybody was pleasant. The staff members that would walk by me would say hello to me."

"My mother is at The Wellington at Conroe. The staff is always so pleasant, kind and helpful. It's a clean place and the staff adores the residents there. I show up there almost every day and they're always nice to everybody. The food is awesome, although sometimes it looks like they're throwing something on the plate, but that didn't happen very much. If a client wants something different that day, then they'll make that. It seems like they can't keep a housekeeper, but the staff steps in and they do the work. I honestly think that they need more people. Every day, they have activities starting at 8:00 in the morning, like exercises. When I go up there, they're out playing games. They have the most awesome lady that does activities with their clients. They do bingo, dominoes, everything you can think of. They make crafts. They're good with my mother, and they change her."

"We visited Ella Springs Senior Living Community. It was clean. It didn't have any smell. It was nice. We got there right around lunchtime and did a tour. We saw what they offered, like their private, semi-private and shared rooms. The person who gave the tour was nice. She took us and walked us around. The people in memory care were pretty nice. They explained to us that if a person can't feed themselves or decides they don't know if they're supposed to eat, they are sitting there feeding them. The food looked good and smelled good. They had two churches that came in twice a week, one on Sunday and one during the week. They have bingo nights. They showed us around where they sit and watch movies. Each room has its TV. We enjoyed everything we saw and liked it. The only thing is that we couldn't afford it."

"I toured The Conservatory at Champion Forest, and it was the best I've seen so far. It was more modern, and the staff was kind. They followed up with me three times, even trying to adjust the price to fit my budget. However, it was still not cheap. Their rooms were clean and fine. They put a wooden floor instead of carpet in the living area. They have a kitchenette, which is enough for senior living, and I think for the washer and dryer they wanted extra."

"I toured The Solana Preserve Vintage Park, and it was awesome. It was amazing. It just wasn't what we needed. I physically went in and I spoke with Sierra but we didn't go very far other than the lobby, the eating area, and the little bar area because sitting and talking with her, we realized that what my mom needed, the facility wasn't going to suffice, unfortunately. They were all very friendly, mild-mannered when you were speaking with them, very easy to talk to, eager to help, wanted to make sure that they were trying to find a way to meet my parents' needs, I thought that was great. It's beautiful. It's like a higher-end hotel. It looks like an amazing facility. It looks very nice when you walk in, it's very nicely decorated, and you're greeted by a nice person at the front desk. It's very bright."

"We chose Mera Vintage Park. It's fabulous. We were really drawn to it. We like the bocce ball court, swimming pool, and pickleball. It appears that there are activities going on there. People like us are still fairly active. The dog park, that was important to us, they have an exercise room, a basketball court, outdoor grills, several seating areas that would be nice to get out and about, and that backs up to a preserve. And we were very excited walking into that preserve. We dealt with Jasmine, the sales staff. We're moving there."

"I toured The Laurel at Vintage Park. They had extra things like appliances, garbage collection, and utilities, which were extra charges, whereas, in other places, they were all included. I was not all that interested in activities because all planned activities are indoors, and I'm more of an outdoor person, but my wife might be interested in it. The rooms were okay."

"Carriage Inn - Conroe was very clean and very pretty inside. They were friendly and open with any questions. The structure of the building was nice. It was very clean and very pleasant. The rooms and its size were really nice, too."

"We went to Park Creek. We have already toured there and we're set up for another tour. We liked them, they looked quite nice. We were looking at the largest rooms, and we really liked the one they showed us, which was a corner, a first-floor corner that had a little patio that had a ramp. Instead of a step-down, it had a little ramp. I use a walker to get around and every once in a while a wheelchair (depending on distance), so for us, that ramp would be handy. We liked it. The food was quite good, we had dinner with them."

"Cypress Woods is a beautiful facility. It was perfect for what I wanted for my loved ones. We had an appointment for 11:00, and nobody was available. We waited around. We had to stop some of the kitchen staff and tell them that we had an appointment, and they said, "We'll get somebody." We stood for probably about 45 minutes before somebody came. The apartments were small. They have no stove, just a refrigerator. Meals and snacks were included. The place looked like it would be good. Initially, they had told us they were going to serve us lunch, but they didn't. The girl was wonderful. She was really nice. She was great with the residents. It was everything I had hoped for for my loved ones, but they just couldn't afford it."
