Elegant, modern

Apartments are light, airy, well thought-out at very reasonable prices and the facility is spotless and new. All amenities are available. I have not moved in yet, but am excited with the possibilities.

Perfect choice for Mom!

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.

Excellent staff

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.
