Such a nice place to be!

My parents moved into an independent living apartment at Water's Edge about four months ago. While that is a very big adjustment for them of course, it has been such a blessing to be there. It's happy and friendly and feels so comfortable. The other residents are very welcoming and intentional about including them in what's going on. It's beautiful and clean and it feels nice to be there. The staff TRULY is there to help them. I know if anything happens or is needed, they will be there. My parents ended up moving

Our family's experience

This is in regard to secure Memory Care floor upstairs: - nice size apartment -Max of 18 residents -excellent food/meals - same food residents in assisted and independent - activities they can choose to participate in (even off floor and in other areas on campus) - apartment has a small kitchen like area which helps to make it feel like an apartment, and two rooms, not just a bed. - most staff are caring but nights and weekends can sometimes seem like one more worker would be helpful. Overall would definitel

[name removed] was very welcoming on a Sunday afternoon for my tour. The grounds were dry and shabby, maybe because of the drought. Inside was clean and nice.

Waters Edge was clean and friendly. The tour manager answered all of our questions & showed us all over the facility. Both the residents and the staff seemed to be happy. As we were leaving we even could hear them having fun at the Fri evening happy hour with a DJ!

Review for Water's Edge of Lake Wales

Staff at Water's Edge is great. Very attentive and caring. Apartment is perfect for those who don't need a large area to navigate but need room for their personal equipment and make the room into a home. Not a hospital type setting. Plenty of activities for all to participate in with several different levels of skills needed. Mom loves the place.
