Independent Living Communities in Waxahachie, TX

"I'm in Emerson South Collins. They have a lot of people in here who should be in assisted living, but that's my personal opinion. What I like best are the people and the staff. Everybody's friendly. They look out for each other. The staff is also very caring. It's institutional food. The structure is old, but they're upgrading it constantly. They're getting ready to start again on the third floor. Every morning, there's a coffee and conversation. There's an exercise. They have seven activities a day. They have a book club, bingo, card club, and dominoes. I like my room. It's great. I have a one-bedroom, and it's perfect for me."

"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."

"My mom moved to Morada Lake Arlington, and the big deciding factor was that I have a special needs brother, and he was able to find a place there with her as well. They were able to get a two-bedroom unit within the facility. All of their activities and the super welcoming environment have been great and accommodating for both my mom and brother. They have everything they both need, which makes things extra great because he's not a senior citizen. So, him being able to still reside with her and have a lot of engaging activities and stuff going on was a big selling point. My mom and brother say the food is fantastic."

"I went to visit Morada Pantego. The grounds were well-kept. When you walked in, there was no clutter or anything of that nature. It looked very nice. One staff member toured with me and showed me one of the rooms. They were very nice and pleasant. They liked what they did. The dining area was nice. It wasn't crowded. You didn't feel like you had to sit very close together. The room was nice; I did get to see that. For one person, it was great."

"My mother-in-law is in here. I visited several places and when I went in, everyone was very nice and cordial, but for some reason, that place just gave me the impression that they were all very caring. For one thing, it wasn't just the fact they were caring. It was the residents there that made me feel at home also. They all would just pass by me and start talking to me. That impressed me more than anything as far as the rest of them. All of the people just were so, so friendly, the staff, residents, everyone. That's how my mother-in-law is. She talks to everyone and I said she will love this place and she does. They provide three meals a day and snacks during the daytime. I ate with her the first night and we had an awesome meal of barbecued chicken wings and it was awesome. She goes at least to two meals a day. She chose a studio because she doesn't really have a lot and she absolutely loves that she has a backdoor that goes to a patio. That sold her as much as the people being so sweet and so nice. They have exercise classes and they have all kinds of games. Her main thing was they do have a church service on Wednesday. Even last night when I went to visit her, she made me take a bite of her taco salad and it was good. Everything looks really good. I visited several of the rooms too, and they were all really nice."

"I toured Pegasus Landing of Chisholm Trail. The place is very clean. It's very personable. The people who live there seem very happy. They care about their needs, like taking them to Walmart, or if they want to go to a museum, or taking them on little ventures, and doing crafts with them, so it's a nice place."

"Arlington Plaza was very nice and well-kept. The apartment was a nice size. The eating area was good. The staff was very nice. They engage with the clients there. I didn't observe any activities, but I saw a list of the activities, and it seemed like they had enough to keep your interests."

"We were so happy with Cambridge Court. Everyone was very helpful and caring. They did all they could do for Mom in trying to accommodate her in everything. I was just very happy that she was there for the short time she was there. The facility was beautiful and they took care of everything. It's just wonderful. The food was fantastic. They had bingo, people came in and sang for them, exercises, Bible reading, all kinds of games, and music."

"I liked Heritage Place Independent Living. It was nice, clean, and updated, and they have a washing machine available that you can use, and you don't have to go out. They do laundry, but it's $50 a month if they do your clothes, and they do your towels and sheets free. They clean your apartment once a month. I liked the lady director who took me around. She was very personable. The food was good, and there was nothing I disliked about it. The staff was good, especially the lady that we took the tour with and the people that we met in the dining room. They were all personable. It smelled good. I didn't see anything out of order in the places that I went."

"I loved The Hamilton at Garden Valley. It was beautiful. I got to see the apartments, and they looked nice. The staff was very courteous, and she was very willing to show me around. She took the time to answer my questions. She was just very open and very positive."

"The apts.are excellent Great staff maintinence. Manager is the best and has a heart for the residents. Very large and maintained pool. Always very well maintained"

"The Rose at Cedar Hill was not a large facility. I think they've got only 93 or so and I am looking for something like that. It looked like it was fairly good. I think the complex has been there for three or four years, but it looks well-kept. It's very clean. As far as the facility outside, like the grounds and everything, it was very clean. They gave me enough information and I asked questions as far as putting me on the waiting list and they assisted me and helped out on that. They had certain times during the week when they had movies and other activities going on, and they've got it posted in a calendar where you'd be able to see them."

"I toured the Villas of Lancaster. I like the way the community looked. It was clean and just looked quiet. I like the upkeep of it and everything. I didn't get to visit one of the apartments. They didn't have anything for me to look at, but the property and everything looked well-kept. All I did was fill out an application. He didn't give me a whole lot of information. I just left my information out with him. I just looked at the property and it looked good to me."
