Robert616782 2017-01-05 My mother-in-law is in Lockwood of Waterford. It is very clean. The nursing staff and the medical team are very helpful. The administration is great to work with and address your needs. They have movie night, game night, and craft night. The dining area is great. The food is reasonable. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Tim000085 2016-11-28 We felt that Lockwood of Waterford is a great place. Everybody was friendly, and we really liked it. The staff was really helpful and accommodating. This is actually one of the places my mom is considering although she has not made her decision yet. They have lots of activities, and their rooms are of good size. I visited this facility

Troy434873 2016-11-08 I liked Lockwood, I was impressed, the atmosphere is good, and I think my father would like it. The accommodation seemed OK, and they had meals and services if you needed help. I visited this facility

Crystal 2022-04-04 I went to Lockwood of Waterford. The least I liked is that they hardly ever answered the phone when I called. Then when I went for my appointment, the girl wasn't there. I had to wait a while, at least ten minutes, and then one of the residents let me in because the door was locked. So I feel like if we needed to get a hold of them when my mom was there, I had a feeling it wouldn't be as easy to do that. The place inside seemed fair, it seemed nice, and it was one of the lower-cost ones. So I like the price there. The room that I went into, hadn't even been cleaned. Probably not enough help or something there. Somebody had moved out and it was never cleaned or anything. The bathtub was dirty. The person who gave me the tour seemd to be in a rush. She answered all my questions, but when we went into one of the rooms for her to talk to me, there was a lot of stuff she had to move out of the way and it wasn't like a planned out thing. They have bingo with big cards, which I thought was nice for people that don't see very well. They have large-sized cards. They had a TV room with nice movie theater chairs. So they have a movie every so often, and they had a craft room where they could do crafts and things. I visited this facility

Joseph 2020-03-14 My mother moved into Lockwood of Waterford. She likes the food, the staff, and the people there. The room gets cleaned, everybody is nice, and the place is nice and clean. The snow removal is taken care of, they seem to be on top of everything, and the maintenance staff seem to be really good too. The dining area is fine and large. Mom said they have lots of activities. They have transportation services, they have a beauty shop, they have a small store, a movie theater, a pool table, they have a library to take out books, and places to do jigsaw puzzles. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

ER 2019-01-01 My favorite one is Lockwood of Waterford. It was just remodeled, so everything was modern. It looked classy. The rooms could have been a little bit bigger. The food was all freshly cooked. The staff was very nice. The activities were very similar. The building was near the main road, but more than a block in, so it felt secluded. It was very close to lots of shopping. They took the residents to the doctors. The staff members that I met were very nice and helpful. They had aerobic exercises and crafts. The place was gorgeous. I visited this facility

DD 2018-03-22 Lockwood of Waterford was a slightly older facility and a bit more condensed with the number of units and the building itself. I got a quick tour of the one-bedroom apartment and the common room. It was about that time everybody was coming down for dinner. The staff was very open and very helpful. I visited this facility

KG 2017-10-23 Lockwood of Waterford was where Mom would want to live if she decides to move from California to Michigan. We like the area. We lived near there all of our lives and she's been away from Michigan for 30 years. She was comfortable in that environment. She liked just everything about it. She liked the convenience of it. We were able to see the rooms, and they were very nice. One of the things that we found is that because of her income, she could qualify for rent assistance, so that was important to her. They are sending her calendars of activities each month so she can take a look at them. We walked around and saw the entire place. I have a friend that actually is a nurse that works for the agency out of Lockwood and she was even there and that helped the comfort level. The person that we spoke with still keeps in touch with us. Michelle is very accommodating, very informative, and has been very responsive to any questions we continue to have even though my mom has decided she doesn't want to move to Michigan right now. One thing that I thought was very noticeable is there were cleaning and maintenance people throughout the building and everything seemed to be real clean and well taken care of. I visited this facility

Nancy460513 2017-04-18 We loved Lockwood of Waterford. The tour and amenities were fantastic. We spent a couple of hours there. The food looked great, and their little apartments were cute. The place was very clean, very neat, and very inviting. The residents were busy because they had something going on every single day. We loved it because if you want to be busy, you can be, and if you don’t, you don’t have to participate. I visited this facility

Janice248401 2016-11-13 I liked Lockwood of Waterford basically. The rooms were nice, and it was apartment living. I found out that the meal included was only dinner, and it was served at a certain time. The staff who assisted me was very nice and very helpful. She was telling me about their activities and how the entire family would be invited which was important to me because I've got lots of grandkids. It was easy to get to places if I needed to because they have a shuttle. The dining area looked really nice. I visited this facility

Julie460627 2016-10-27 I liked Lockwood of Waterford very much, but they didn’t have a vacancy on the first floor. I didn’t look at them that thoroughly, but I liked what I saw. I saw some seniors getting ready for their shuttle. The dining area looked fine. I visited this facility

Deborah271252 2016-10-24 We were very impressed with the cleanliness of Lockwood. The apartments really stood out since they were a good size, very spacious, and laid out well. The staff was very friendly, and it had a very nice dining area. I visited this facility

Betsy006567 2016-10-20 Lockwood of Waterford is nice and clean, and the staff is friendly. The layout makes it convenient for you to get to where you need to go especially if you're handicapped to some extent. The dining room was nice, and the room was OK. I visited this facility

Bill842322 2016-09-02 We were very pleased with Lockwood of Waterford. The person who met us was very personable, answered our questions, and gave us a tour that enabled us to see that it was a well-run place. They had a lot of programs during the day and events. The dining area looked very welcoming and well-kept. I think I would enjoy eating a meal there. I visited this facility

Hazel4 2014-12-09 I visited Lockwood of Waterford, and I really like it. I really wanted to be in this facility, but I can't afford it. They took me to the rooms, and they are beautiful and spacious. It has lot of convenience to it. The lady who hosted the tour gave us lunch, and the food was very good. They have a lot of activities going on like crafts, movies, and bingo. The staff was very nice and helpful. I visited this facility

Patty20 2013-11-21 Lockwood of Waterford is clean and everything. It is a really nice place, but for my mother's needs, the other facility works better. Also when I went there on Saturday, there were very few residents that were out of their rooms. In comparison, there were a lot more going at the other facility than this one. Lockwood was also $100 more expensive. I'm really glad I didn't choose this place because of the location of the bathrooms in their apartments. We want the bathroom to be accessible, but with this one, you have to go around the corner and almost into the kitchen to go to the bathroom. To me, that's not acceptable. I also don't want to walk into an apartment and find the bathroom the first thing I see. And that's the way it is there. I visited this facility

caring06231 2013-06-27 Lockwood has senior apartments and you can choose from one, two or three bedrooms. Mom and dad have a beautiful two-bedroom apartment, they get one meal a day and they have their own kitchenette so they can cook in. Lockwood also offers the Med Team that takes care of their medical needs, bathing, housekeeping and laundry so they can be together. I am a friend or relative of a resident
