We visited my great uncle and wasn’t sure what to expect. We didn’t have an appointment so I wasn’t sure how we would be received. I was very pleasantly surprised at the friendly & helpful staff. They were very welcoming. The decorations and climate made it feel like a home. We were able to have lunch together and the food was great! My uncle just loves it there and all the extra activities that keep him busy and make him & all the residents feel like one big family. We left feeling assured that he is in the perfect place. We will be back to visit again!

I toured this facility and had lunch. Considering a place for my mother. The food was great and it looks like there are plenty of activities. The lady who led the tour was very helpful and knowledgeable. The rooms were very nice and the facility was very clean. We have toured several places and this is the best we have seen.

We found our new chosen family! The staff is friendly and thoughtfully engaging with focus on safety. They offer gourmet healthy food options that support diabetic and high blood pressure dietary needs. My mom loves the shuttle to her doctor appointments, weekly events and activities.

The staff is amazing and caring. My mom has been here almost a year and has some memory issues. Everyone here knows her by name and keeps an eye out for her. The apartments are kept clean, the meals are delicious and through the Covid pandemic, the staff has gone above and beyond. I visit often and at different times of day and night staff is attentive and keeps up with who enters.

We have lived here at the Waterford for over 10 years. We love the conveniences they offer such as housekeeping, maintenance, dining, food, library, and activities, party rooms for family get-togethers. Very friendly staff, clean, close to anything we need. They have helped us during Covid, making us aware of any changes and new policies. We feel safe here. This is our home. We love it.

Food - very good, able to order off menu and customize. Appearance - very pretty and well maintained, decorate for holidays. Others - very responsive to any apartment R&M, great entertainment and fun activities, plus many (non-care) outings. My mom loves it here!

We put my mother in law here on July 1, I can Not tell you how wonderful the staff, managers & residents are. We have felt like part of their family from day one. We have had health issues w/my Mother In law & the staff has gone beyond anything we could have hoped for or thought about. They have bent over backward to make sure that she was taken care of & that We knew all of our options & helped us get thru some very difficult days. They have so many activities for the residents daily, even through the difficult times of COVID. They really care for ALL the residents no matter how long they have been there. I can not say enough good things about the people who work in this community!

My mother loves The Waterford at Mesquite. They're very caring toward their residents. They take them on shopping trips, they take them on any appointments that they might have, and they take them on outings. They also give you choices for your lunch and for your dinner. The Waterford at Mesquite is just wonderful. They address all your needs. The residents are very well taken care of. They clean your room once a week, and they do your sheets and your towels for you. It is beautiful. They do exercises, they paint, and they play bingo. They just have a good time. The value for your money is excellent.

I really wasn't all that pleased with The Waterford at Mesquite when I visited. We toured the building and the room I saw had the carpets torn up because they were renovating. I'm not impressed with the room at all size wise. I don't think it's well kept up because there are too many dirty spots in the carpets, and that bothered me. I saw some people doing some artwork in one area. My impression of the people that work there were that they're really nice people, and I have nothing against the people there. The lady that took our information and showed us the room, and the one I talked to before were very nice. They even called the next day. They told me when they had a room that became available, but it was larger than what I'd seen, and more expensive. But they'll be re-doing the rooms and the carpets, and there's a kitchen area which had a little sink and hardwood cabinets. I saw the dining room, which was impressive, and we went upstairs where most of the rooms are.

I visited the Waterford for my mom. Its great; my mother-in-law is living there. It was very clean, friendly, pretty organized, and really informative. We saw several places and got to meet some of the residents. That was very nice. The price was in line with what people can afford. Theres a pretty well-stocked library staffed by an ex librarian resident, which I thought was really cool. The have a convenience store run by one of the residents, which was a nice touch. The view from the balcony was nice.

My father is in The Waterford at Mesquite. It's beautiful and clean. The food and staff were great. So far, we are really pleased. He hasn't really done the activities yet. He's still doing therapy, goes to church, and enjoys the lunchroom. It looks like they do a lot of activities. They have a library, computers, a beauty shop, a barber shop, a little store, and a room which you can reserve for parties, which is very nice. The food is good.

The staff at The Waterford at Mesquite was very nice. They gave my aunt lunch and a pie. The dining area was very clean. They had a beauty salon. It had a building that she would live into and eat into. However, she didn't like the air-conditioner on the sidewall.

My first choice for my mom was The Waterford at Mesquite, but their personal care was too expensive for me. It was very convenient for me because it was just right down the street. I can walk down there. It's new and kind of set up like a hotel. Their apartments were laid out more for special needs or extended need clients. Everything could have worked out except that the personal care cost was just way out of my budget.

My mother was at The Waterford at Mesquite for a month. Our experience there was incredible. It had a beautiful setting. It was like an apartment and the room was pretty. The food was excellent. The activities were wonderful. The staff was incredible. They had thoughtful and caring people. Mother just became sick and was too weak and she couldn't go back. I saw her today and that's what she was talking about, "Will I be able to go back?" and the answer right now was "No" so it was hard. I wished mother could go back there, but she's just not strong enough. I would give anything to have her back there.

My mother-in-law is in The Waterford. We choose it because it is close to us and she has lots of friends there. The have a lot of activities. They play dominoes and cards. They have entertainment come in sometimes. The place is nice. She's happy with her room. The staff seems okay. They have nurses that check on her. They don't have to do a whole lot other than feed her and clean her room, because she can take care of herself. I would recommend it to others.

An amazing community with a caring and professional staff. Mom loves her apartment and she can't stop talking about the food. With all of the activities that they have going on, its hard to get time with Mom anymore.
Thank you Waterford for taking good care of Mom.
