Waltonwood Senior Living

My father passed away unexpectedly in 2021 and mom needed to find a senior independent living community that would accomodate her visual and audible impairments. Waltonwood Lake Boone provided the perfect setting for mom to thrive by providing a large apartment with a patio overlooking the courtlyard on a floor with easy access to the dining facility. The large apartment size enabled her to create a comfortable living space using many of her home furnishes. Adjusting to a new reality was made easier by the very helpful staff and wonderful group of volunteer residents. Waltonwood Lake Boone is located minutes away from Rex hospital and a vast network of medical support facilities. They provide in-house physical therapy as well as many life enrichment programs. For my mom Waltonwood Lake Boone was the right place at the right time.

About 18 months ago, I could not be convinced that I would be happy living in a "hotel " for more than a week. Actually, this new lifestyle far exceeded my expectations. I have lived at WALTONWOOD senior living independent community for 1 year. Nothing has surpassed my expectations more than what I have found here. The community is warm, inviting and friendly. The activities are designed to meet the interests of most residents. T ainment, are frequent, affordable and are selected with staff input for variety. The entire staff here works together to make us feel safe, secure and loved in a quiet home felt environment. I am at home and I am proud to share home with my family and friends.

Our father is an active and independent 101 year old who is currently residing at Waltonwood in Raleigh, NC. Following a couple of unsuccessful six-month residencies at other senior homes we were ecstatic to find Waltonwood which has truly proven to be an oasis. From the welcoming leasing department, the ever helpful-24/7 concierge desk, accommodating dining room and cleaning personnel to the caring life enrichment and kind management staff, Waltonwood has been an answer to our prayers. The building is stunning, and beautifully maintained, the meals are diverse and delicious and the programming very inclusive. We highly recommend Waltonwood.

My father was living at home with me. He was doing okay, but had no social life whatsoever. He is mobile to a degree but limited due to his hearing challenges and the fact that he is in his nineties. From the very first time that I toured Waltonwood, chose Waltonwood as a good fit for my father, moved him in, and every moment since, I have been reminded that Waltonwood is simply ideal. There is an aura of peace and love in every aspect of this facility. I am daily impressed by the kindness and caring of the amazing staff. They are all truly saints. Every staff member I have ever met has been upbeat,, enthusiastic about working here and so very attentive. Every detail is addressed immediately and with care and respect. The building is spotlessly clean and bright, modern and welcoming. My father’s apartment is ideal for him. Spacious and comfortable and home. He is beginning to socialize with the other residents and to make friends. Waltonwood has been a godsend.

The heart and soul of Waltonwood lies not in the physical space alone rather in the staff who plans, organizes and facilitates the multitudes of excursions, activities, services, sporting events, professional arena shows and on-site entertainment of every variety for residents to enjoy. The food preparation and quality here are unparalleled and planned by our on-site professional chief with particular attentions to quality of taste and nutrition. The activities director coordinates multiple activities available for most every hour of the day. Most importantly on a personal level, I feel safe, secure and well cared for living here. I recommend Waltonwood most enthusiastically to anyone needing a little help while aging.

I would recommend to other families. It was a really wonderful experience. We were both in the independent and assisted living communities and my mom loved her time there. We picked this community, because of the gorgeous rooms and facilities, and the location.

Waltonwood - Cary has been very easy to work with - sensitive to all of our needs and individual situation. My parents love the food, the socialization, the activities and the grounds, apartments and amenities are beautiful. I felt peaceful and safe while visiting and the entire facility is clean. All of the staff and physical therapists and occupational therapists are wonderful and very engaging. They remember everything and that is so meaningful.

We picked this community, because they had a huge incentive going. It's a very nice place. They have caring administration. It's lots of community, and opportunities for engaging with other residents.

The one thing that made Waltonwood University stand out was the feelings we got while there. Everyone was truly caring. It radiated from them. The other places...were fine but they were doing their jobs. Truly the difference. My brother has been in the hospital and rehab the past couple of weeks. I can tell he misses WW by the statements that he makes. That means everything to us!

The staff members at Waltonwood University are great! Our mom is happy and safe! We would absolutely recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

My loved one is a resident at Waltonwood Cherry Hill and everything has been great. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. We didn't even feel the need to tour any other facilities, this one was that great. I have and will continue to recommend this facility to others.

My loved one was there only a couple of months and it was only adjusting time although they did seem to feel comfortable and was meeting people. I would recommend it to others for their loved ones. It's too bad my loved one wasn't around long enough to fully enjoy the community.

The cleanliness got a 3 because there is a lot of construction going on at the moment. Based off of our personal experience, I would recommend Waltonwood - Cary to others who are looking.

I went to the open house and the food served was wonderful. Wow what a treat. The plants to take home were great as well Cannot wait to use my free dinner coupon. P and R

My parents moved in at a crucial time and my mother required back surgery one week after the move. The staff helped us get them in and the support services like home care and physical therapy were arranged quickly. Everything they need other than some medical specialists is right there in their building.

I have visited Waltonwood Twelve Oaks for a number of years to give presentations for the residents. I see an effort by the staff to provide positive activities for the residents, teaching, and providing entertainment, comfort and care.

We give all above categories 5 stars, we really like the attitude of the staff and it is an outstanding physical plants. Given the chance we would absolutely recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.
