It's actually the only facility we looked at. It was the only one y'all recommended in the Katy area. Mom really liked it. They were awesome to work with and my mom is settling in quite nicely there.

I’ve enjoyed my time at Watercrest so much. The peaceful atmosphere, combined with a wide variety of activities, makes it easy to feel at home. I opted for a more independent lifestyle with some meals and housekeeping, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. It’s a place that allows me to be as active as I want while still offering the support I need.

I would recommend with reservations. A menu for breakfast is printed, showing fresh fruit, pastries, bread of different varieties. Since October, they have NEVER been available. Why print it then?? Food quality, and food safety is sub par. Evening meal is only take out. Ever since covid. Meals are very far from the restaurant meals advertised.The "free" monthly cleaning service does not include dusting or any actual cleaning. And it's not free. We are charged $50.00 for it, like it or not. It is also being taxed.. I would also like to mention some safety concerns that I have. There is no backup system for when there is a loss of power. Mobility impaired people are prisoners in their homes. It is difficult for people with no disabilities to navigate the stairs in the dark, but impossible for people unable to walk. A safe room, in case of fire, is supposedly on each floor, but with fire doors automatically closed during power outages, they are inaccessible.

There are too many things we like about about this community. My dad loves the community, the different events they have going on but mostly the sense of community. He said he feels like he is really living for the first time in a long time. He loves the pool and having physical therapy on site.
