All 5 stars. My mother is happier here than she would be in a nursing home. What stuck out most about The Waterford at Colby over other places we looked at was just how very friendly all of the staff are. They really know how to work with the residents who have Alzheimer's. I would most definitely r...

5 / 5.0

I will never be able to convey my gratitude for [name removed], [name removed] and the entire Our House Team. The care they have shown for my loved one is unbeatable.

4.4 / 5.0

Activities are great, so much to do and so helpful. From [name removed] to [name removed], nurses. To much fish, needs better cooks, to many people with memory issues. Need more info for the flu shots, and boosters and votes. Very safe here
