The Watermark Vision

When you think of retirement living, what do you see? If cookie-cutter apartments, bland food and bingo come to mind, then think again. Whether it’s our living choices, cuisine, programming or the way we deliver care, Watermark communities are nothing like what you’d expect, and that’s exactly what we’re aiming for.

When it comes to living choices at Watermark communities, choice is the operative word. We offer an incredible variety of options from affordable studio apartments to deluxe penthouse suites. But we don’t stop there. We also offer The Cottages, spacious private homes with all the benefits of the Watermark lifestyle, as well as The Villas, family-scale residential environments which boast high caregiver-to-resident ratios and the best in proactive care. The Cottages and The Villas are a perfect fit for our culture of choice.

About that drab dining – don’t get us started. When it comes to our incredible restaurants, we’ve got it all – from casual to elegant to delicious-on-the-go. And whatever you’re in the mood for, choice is always on the menu. We pride ourselves on it, and so do our Chefs.

Boring stereotypical activities – not at Watermark communities. One visit and you’ll recognize that our innovative brain and body fitness programming through Watermark University is far from ordinary. So you see, we call it “unretirement living” for good reason – because Watermark communities are never what you’d expect.

How’d we do it? Over twenty years of experience in the retirement living industry have taught us that today’s seniors want more choices and are leading a more active lifestyle than generations before. That’s why we invest in our communities to make them unlike any you’ve ever imagined - whether we’re adding state-of-the-art senior wellness and fitness centers, innovative technology, eco-friendly cafés or indulgent salons and day spas. No, it’s not what you’d expect from retirement communities, but we think our residents deserve it.

It’s not just the building and design that makes Watermark communities different. When it comes to health care, we don’t just “offer” assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing – we do it in true Watermark style. Monotonous call bells and squawking intercoms – not here. Staff in scrubs pushing medication carts - no way. Let’s put it this way, if you wouldn’t want it in your home, you won’t find it in our communities. Just top notch care tailored to your individual needs, when you want it, how you like it, 24-hours a day. You might even find yourself asking our staff, “Where’s the nursing area?” And that’s fine with us, in fact it’s what we’re hoping for.

At The Watermark, you’ll flourish, thrive and be empowered to express your true self, all in an environment unlike anything you’d expect from a retirement community. That’s our vision and we think it’s what unretirement living is all about.
