Cardinal Bay Inc

This is a gated community that offers independent and assisted living. I felt they leaned more towards assisted living. They were more expensive then the community we chose. The person that conducted our tour was nice and the community looked clean.

Carriage Inn at Katy was one of the communities that the family took a tour of. The guide was smart and gave us all the proper information in relation to the community. Activities are offered on site and off site. Meal plans are also available for the residents. It's a pet friendly community with transportation available if needed for the residents. It was a very clean place and well organized.

Very nice full service location, really like the limo service, activities. Big place, some times too big would. Like to see after they renovate halls. Really good move in incentives.

My loved one recently moved out of this community. It was very nice, and everyone was friendly. My loved one was just running out of money and couldn't afford to live here any longer. A really great place though.

Charlie and Mom went to tour. Liked facility. Looking at more tomorrow.

Carriage Inn at Katy is going well overall. They have a lot of varied activities. My only concern is we have had some maintenance issues. Its not major things but has taken forever to get done. I have e-mailed a list of things that need to be done several times. That is really my only complaint. Other than that my mom has been really happy there. Both the staff and the residents are really friendly. Mom is really picky but likes the food there. They seem to have several options.

My loved one is starting to adjust. It has been a good experience. Overall, i'm very pleased. I know a lot of the people that work there, so that makes it even better. It's convenient for the support staff. My loved one gets exercise. A good thing about the facility is that it's all on one level. The community is very nice. We are very pleased so far.

We toured this community when we were looking into options for a loved one. The staff we met here all seemed very friendly and professional. The independent living section of this community looked very nice, however I wasn't as happy with the assisted living section, which is where my loved one would have been staying.

Adorable place! Unfortunately, they do not have availability and the AL dining room was too small and there was no PT or exercise room.

This was a very nice place but unfortunately at this time it is only independent living and that won't work for my Mom at this stage in her journey. Possibly when they expand we can revisit.

We decided not to put our parents there. It was down to this and one other place. I didn't like that the Carriage Inn was over 90% women. I saw one man when I visited. They also had continuous serving of food which sounds wonderful but you don't know how often the food is changed how well they tend the dining hall. It wasn't like it was prepared in the kitchen. The staff would just fill the plate from the buffet line. I really liked that my parents would be able to go out their back door into a courtyard. The really needed he openness of a back yard. It was bout the same amount of money but it didn't seem to be as social, it was very quiet.

My mom would have preferred to go there but it was quite a bit more expensive than she could handle. She like the fact that is was closer to all of her friends that she had in Willis, where we lived. She's having to make new friends where she is now. That was the big thing - being closer to the people she knew.

We were leaning towards them but when we were looking they didn't have immediate openings so we didn't choose them. We liked that they had transportation to church and the value was good. They had more outings and things and it was more affordable than others and it had assisted living.

Steeplechase was wonderful, and the closest to our house, but the apartments were smaller and the price was higher than Terrace.

I might have toured 50 or so properties, ultimately my mom was drawn to the Village on the Park's concept, more of a traditional home. This was not my first choice, but it was hers. The food is good and the staff is super attentive. There hasn't been enough time to rate their Care Services yet.

I liked, Dad liked.

1200sf cottage with 1 car garage and covered car port. Wrap around porch. No pool. Water classes for residents and fishing pier at nearby park. Three meals a day included and snacks as dining room is open all day. Limo to chaufer residents to shopping and doctor appointments included. Many activities and classes at the campus and many trips and outings for free or low cost to residents off campus. In-house moveie theater. The furthest away from us with the exception of Glennloch Farms.

Was nice, saw a lot of residents out and about. The cottages are not for Mom too far removed and she would have to drive a golf cart to get to meals. They are a single level facility, but that also means a lot of walking to get to meals and activities. Liked the small patio where I could do flowers, bird bath and bird feeder for her. They have their own safety pendant system. They have the "safety button" to check in each day. They do not have set eating times, they serve 3 meals a day, you can eat anytime during the hours of 7 - 6.

Awesome facility, but targets independent seniors. No wheelchairs allowed.

Yes, heated pool? The common rooms look utilitarian, but the emphasis seems to be fun activities. Too extraverted?
