Watermark Retirement Communities

My mom lived at the fountains for 2 1/2 years until she recently passed away at 100 years old. Her time at the Fountains was an absolute delight for her as the accommodations were beautiful, the staff was professional, attentive and loving, and the community that she built, despite her trepidations about engaging with new people at this point in her life was wonderful and embracing. During this period, my mom had a health issue which required hospitalization and a short time in a rehabilitation facility. The Fountains staff helped us through this process, engaging with both hospital and rehabilitation facility staff, and never let my mom for a moment feel that she was on her own. When we were searching for a community for our mom, neighbors told us about the fountains and said that it was the best facility in the area. I was a bit skeptical about such assertions but now, after 2 1/2 years, I affirm that indeed the Fountains is the best!

Beautiful. We are interested and will follow up. Sales person was warm and welcoming. We look forward to learning more.

I would rate the whole list as a 5. I viewed 5 different facilities and WaterMark was easily the standout. It is also the most convenient to my home. The staff is exceptional, the price is very comparable to other facilities, the activities and food are varied and plentiful. I am very pleased with the experience.

The culinary program is excellent. It has won awards. The staff are very friendly. The facility is modern and well kept.

Everything deserves 5 stars! The staff has been fantastic, caring, and attentive from the very beginning. We chose them because they came highly recommended by A Place for Mom, and they have absolutely lived up to that recommendation. We’re very happy with our decision and would highly recommend them.

Wonderful helpful attendents. Pleasant surroundings that are clean. At breakfast we always are greeted by Charmaine Anderson. She is the fun person who helps with games and music.

The Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She really cared about our personal situation and asked questions to make sure she understood what we were looking for. The place was very clean. Everyone we met while touring (other workers and residents) was pleasant and very happy. The rooms were a good size. The meals seemed to be varied and offer something enticing at each meal. The grounds themselves and the common areas within the building were kept tidy and neat. I think my mom would be very happy there.

The tour was very good. The person who took us on the tour was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions.

Very impressed with the whole establishment. Happy people, good food. Everything clean. Very knowledgeable sales department.

I love living at the Fountains. Both the people that live there as well as the people that work there are wonderful and very friendly. They have lots of activities and fun things to do. There's outings to various restaurants and events, there's several games and activities within the residence. For example, they have bingo several times a week, there's various games, such as Uno, beanbag baseball, Wi-Fi games, karaoke, General music, movies, crafts, and much more. There's various services as far as cleaning your linens, and your general laundry and light housekeeping. The people are so friendly and if you're new, everybody tries to make you feel welcome. Even if you don't have someone to eat with, there's always someone that welcomes you at their table during meal time. I love it here. I only wish I'd moved here sooner.

The staff is very good. The physical plant is new and beautifully designed, well appointed with large windows to let in the light. Food is good with always 2 choices. Staff knows each resident & their needs and accommodates them. I visit my spouse almost daily and find her nicely dressed and her room made up and clean. They have numerous activities from live music to guest lectures and group exercises.

It's been less than a year since I became a resident of Legacy CB. In that time I have learned that friendliness and outgoing personalities of residents and staff are the norm and not a fleeting occurrence. The number and variety of activities astounds me. There doesn't appear an interest, no matter how rare, that doesn't have a group waiting for your participation. The dining room and meal selections continue to delight. There is something for everyone's tastebuds. In general, Legacy CB looks and feels like a cruise ship. It even has regular "ports of call;" e. g. Shopping destinations, restaurants, casinos, and arts/culture. Whether you're an extrovert or introvert, Legacy is designed for you and your pet. Yes, pets because they are a very important part of your life and well being.

The Watermark at Almaden has been a great facility for my dad. He’s been there about a year and a half and really likes it. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. The food is consistently good, as I have joined him for lunches and dinners many times. His biggest complaint is the sometimes long wait times for an aide to return to the dining room to escort him back to his room once he has finished his meal. This short staffing issue may not be unique to WM, however.

Everyone was so friendly and made us feel welcomed immediately. I had looked at 10 previous locations and Rose Tree Place impressed me and I knew it was the right place for my mom.

I had a very informative tour. Skybridge is situated 35 minutes away when traffic is low but during rush hour the time is longer. Therefore this location is not at the top of my list.

Great experience Lots of social events. The current residents appeared happy and engaged. Dining menus were great. The residents rooms were plain. No modern upgrades.

We were given excellent tour. All of our questions were answered. The head of nursing and the executive director took time to spend a few moments with us and answer all our concerns.

Very nice, clean, and wonderful staffs. Both apartments for assisted and independent living are well maintained.

The care is 100 times better than her last facility. We love it for her. Beautiful common areas, great food and opportunities to order from their restaurants. Daily array of activities. Field trips. Hair salon. Super friendly competent staff. No falls!! Super clean room and super clean [name removed]. Quarterly reviews as well.

Front desk was very friendly and we were greeted right away. There was a lot of activity going on in the large entrance room, a Jewelry show was going on and were in shopping for lunch. We were impressed with the number of activities going on, the courtyards and green spaces, and the overall cleanliness. We chatted with a group of residents playing RLC and they were very happy and welcoming to my father, trying to recruit him to play. [Name Removed] was very informative and friendly. We were able to ask her honest questions and appreciated her answers. She showed us multiple rooms to give us different examples of the type of views available. Overall, it was a very positive experience. The cost may be a little beyond what we can afford, but I’m sure dad would have been very happy there.
