We know that moving into a new apartment is challenging; that s why we re here to help. Your first choice is to decide which apartment best suits your needs. Our community offers around 70 spacious senior apartments, including studios, one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms. Each apartment has a kitchenette as well as large windows to let in ample natural light. We also offer companion suites where two residents, who either don t want to live alone or wish to save on rent, can share accommodations. You are encouraged to bring your own furnishings, photos and treasured keepsakes to decorate your apartment in your own unique style.

Our memory care residents enjoy such physical activities as walking and bean bag baseball, socializing at get-togethers, reminiscing about the old days, pet therapy and enjoying music. Maybe you ll find them playing cards, singing karaoke or cooking up some culinary delights. Each of these activities is part of a carefully designed care program to help them flourish and use meaningful life skills and talents even with advanced expressions of the disease.

With a 24-hour security system and enclosed walking areas, our residents living with dementia or other cognitive challenges can safely explore the outdoor gardening area, courtyard and the rest of their surroundings. As an assisted living resident, you and your family can sit at one of our pergolas on the beautiful banks of the Brazos River, watching the wildlife and enjoying nature.

Our assisted living lifestyle provides all the independence you desire and a helping hand when you need it. We re here to help with such daily tasks as managing medications, bathing and dressing, as well as housekeeping, laundry and meals, leaving you to enjoy your independent life with confidence.

If a resident ever should need a deeper level of assistance, it s an easy transition into our memory care program, which is deeply rooted in a person-centered approach focused on creating feelings of belonging and purpose for your loved one. With gentle guidance and visual reminders, we provide a secure, safe place that meets them where they are and allows them to flourish even with advanced expressions of the disease. While your loved one benefits from our care, you ll have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
