Watermark Retirement Communities

The staff was friendly and welcoming

We started with respite stays of 2-3 weeks for Mom when we had to travel. After her third respite stay - having thoroughly enjoyed the facility, the activities, dining services, and comradery of the other residents - Mom decided that she'd like to be a permanent resident. The facility is modern, bright, and well appointed. Mom's studio apartment is spacious and bright. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. The weekly activity schedule is varied with fun and interesting projects; they have field trips that range from local shopping outings, movies and plays, dining out at restaurants, to tours of Lancaster County, etc. Transportation to mass on Sundays, and in-house prayer services. Mom is really enjoying her new home and acquaintances that she's made while at Blue Bell Place.

Our family was so excited to find Summit Senior Living for our parents. They had lived in two other senior living communities but now they needed advanced care. From the moment we moved Mom and Dad into Summit, we felt assured that they would receive the advanced care they needed. Summit always involved us in their care plans. We were notified if there were any issues that needed our attention, any time day or night. This brought us, their family, a lot of peace. From the first day to the last, Mom and Dad loved it there. Everyone on staff, no matter what service they provided for them, cared for our parents compassionately, patiently and with love and respect. We will always love and be grateful to those at Summit who cared for our parents.

This place is very new and very beautiful. However, when I took a tour they were still growing so they weren’t as established as I would’ve liked for my Mom. The management looked like they were on the right path with hiring the right people and the person that took us on the tour was able to answer all of our questions. The rooms didn’t come furnished and the residents would have to provide that, which is something I didn’t like. Overall, it was just a question of their newness and if they would be able to provide exceptional service from day one.

Our Mom moved to Rose Tree Place from another area Senior Living place and we could not have been happier. The entire staff was wonderful to deal with including the admins, aides, nurses, housekeeping, and dining room. The building and Mom's room was kept clean, the entertainment was good, and the food was very good. Most important, the people there really care and demonstrate their compassion and kindness. I would highly recommend this community.

All tho I am not ready for assisted living, I can see why Joshua Springs is by far the best. The building is gorgeous and has so much to offer. This is where I plan to be when I ready.

Superior place. The food is great. The staff is friendly and very caring. Residents are the priority and treated with respect and kindness. Feels just like home.

We brought my my mother-in-law to East Village Place after visits to three area memory care centers and 6 months of trying to convince her husband that this was a better option for her than he could give her himself in their home. Her behavior had become erratic and his frustrations very real. She would not allow any of us to clean her and even fought feeding. She spent most of her days laying in her recliner staring at the wall. Finally she is in a place where she is kept clean and happy, with activities throughout the day to stimulate her mind. She has people to talk to and her caregivers have the patience of saints. Her husband at first had trouble coping with the move, though he himself had said he could no longer take care of her himself, but he has come to terms with the arrangement by going to visit her twice daily during meals to feed her. The staff are always welcoming and patient. They provide activities that get her up on her feet. She went from barely able to walk to the bathroom to participating in games with the other residents. This is not a nursing home, but a memory care center where she can live in safety. We are very happy with the arrangement.

The staff are great with encouraging my mother in law to participate in some of the daily activities. She is not impressed with all of the food options as she says the proteins are all over cooked. They do have good soup, salads and desserts. The community is well taken care of and the grounds are well maintained. We liked the friendliness of the staff and the condition of the rooms. I would recommend this community.

When I toured the Summit Senior Living I was very impressed with this location. The rooms were smaller but the lady sat with me for about 2 hours. I would have picked this community but my siblings thought it was too far, so we chose another one but this one was my top choice.

This is a smaller community and the staff are great. The food is good and if you get there early enough they have a good variety of choices. They offer several card games such as poker, bridge and pinochle. They also have other activities available. The community is close to the Northwest hospital. This community is well taken care of and I would recommend it.

I looked at a number of places, this one seemed to stand out. Firstly they do a good job with Alzheimer patiences. Nobody is in bed all day up and out of their room. Price was reasonable

My mother has lived at the grand vie for 6 months. She loves it there. The staff is very kind and she loves the people she sits with at her diner table. I am very happy to see her loving life there.

Choosing an assisted living facility isn’t easy. If faced with this task take into consideration Physical proximity to your family, physicians,and overall medical needs of your loved one. I strongly recommend choosinga location that is close to your family. Most places have a pre assessment evaluation for admission to their facility. If your needs are more medical then there will be a limited amount of facilities that can handle all their needs. The “Blue Bell place” meet all the criteria in my instance looking for a facility for my Father. I have looked and toured quite a few facilties. The one thing that that took precedence after all was done was how convenient it was because of how close to everything it was for us. It even had a Pub near by and believe me you’ll need a drink after it’s all over.

I am so glad I did not read these reviews until after I made my decision. I never would have came in and we love it here. We moved Dad in about a month ago and our biggest factor in choosing Blue Bell was the cleanliness. There are no odors and the place appears VERY clean. The transition was difficult. Dad had a very hard time at first but their activities people have done such a good job with him that he has settled in nicely. He loves all of the beautiful outdoor areas, the food and most of all the trips. Everyone is so nice. We really couldn't be any happier.

My mother recently moved into Rose Tree Place after spending her entire life in the same house......the staff at this facility went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and safe. Which in turn, made her children feel the same way!! Mike [removed] was more than gracious and extremely patient with all of our questions and requests. He is a pleasure to work with and has a heart of gold!!!! If you're thinking a moving a loved one, I would definitely suggest Rose Tree Place!

I would recommend The Fountains to my family and friends. After visiting I was ready to move in myself! This was the first community we looked at and it definitely set the bar high for other communities. My mom is still getting settled but already loves the community. I have had the opportunity to enjoy meals with her and the food is great. We received great service and the dining room staff was very helpful. My mom is also looking forward to attending the exercise programs available. Her room has a great view and she is very comfortable in her new apartment. The entire staff is very friendly.

This facility is really big, and they always seem to have a lot of activities for the residents to do. It is always nice and clean. The staff is professional and friendly. The other residents seem to be thriving and happy.

I was a prior resident at The Watermark Beveryly Hills, and am currently on the waiting list, with that being said I have had a wonderful experience here. I like it very much, they are very very nice to me. Everything I ask for is always available. It is not at all like a senior home its a very unique atmosphere and community.

The fountains is awesome!! Wonderful place!????
