at Independence Village of Oxford (Waterstone)

We toured the facility twice with Josh. He was very informative and personable. It was nice to see that he knew and chatted with residents in the hallways and diningroom, even after he'd made "the sale".

I went on a tour with my parents and we were all so impressed!! Josh was so informative and everyone was so friendly. My parents have been here now 6 months and have made many new friends. They are always talking about the wonderful meals too

We had my dad look at Independence Village of Oxford after my mom passed away so he wouldn’t be by himself and it was by far the nicest place we looked at! We looked at a few before this one and he was not interested but as soon as we entered this place it felt like a warm welcoming place! He has been there for about 2 1/2 years and it has been a positive experience! He is very comfortable there and the staff go above and beyond in everything that they do for the residents! I can’t say enough good things about Independence Village Oxford! Your loved ones will be well taken care of and they always have something for everyone to do! Thank you again for everything you do!

Our facilitator was kind and knowledgable. He was solicitous of our comfort during the tour and answered all our questions.

Josh was very professional & knowledgeable regarding whatever information we requested!

This facility was so easy to work with as far as understanding price, policies etc. Our mother always comments on how kind and helpful ALL the staff is. The move went very well and the community has engaging and fun activities. The food is excellent! Our family loves to go and dine with her. The facility is clean, beautiful , and maintenance updated consistently. We are very thankful for Independence Village- Waterstone!

The staff was very responsive to our inquiries. The tour and facility was great and we had all our questions answered by the time we were done.

I can’t think of a better place for my mother to have moved than to Independence Village. At 99 years old and having lost my dad 11 years ago, it was apparent she had to move closer to us and out of her condo in Florida. She loved her home and friends but summers were hot and lonely, she was too far away, no longer driving and hurricanes were becoming more prevalent. I stumbled on Independence Village at a Chamber of Commerce meeting and was so impressed with the appearance, atmosphere, food and staff that I knew this was a solution. She has made so many wonderful friends, is engaged in activities, loves her apartment, is playing piano and giving concerts, and has flourished. And I can’t say enough about the staff. Management assisted in navigating the process and amazing meals are prepared for the residents every night with terrific choices. They are all caring and involved people who truly enjoy their work. I’d move in too but they don’t allow horses yet, only dogs and cats.

Very clean facility, lots of activities for people to engage in. The people and fellow residents are very nice and accommodating. This would be a great place to move mom/dad into and know they are in good hands.

This facility offers many options for a loved one to get involved with fellow residents and interact with outside activities. The food here is outstanding with several different options each night. My grandma has lived here for 2 years and has loved every second of it. She has gotten to meet great people who have become some of her dearest friends and it has allowed her to get involved with certain events and activities that she was unable to do when living at home. The community here is very caring towards the residents and truly becomes home.

Independence village is the best! All staff is amazing and super friendly, the space is so cozy and homey. My daughter and I love to come and visit and check out the birds!

I am really pleased with my parents' choice to live at Independence Village of Oxford for the past three years. Their apartment along with the common areas are always clean and well-maintained, providing a sense of comfort and security. It has been a true blessing knowing that my parents are living in a safe and welcoming space where they are appreciated and truly feel at home.The daily care provided is exceptional. Staff's dedication to my parents' health, comfort, care and happiness is evident in every interaction. They are always ready to address concerns and offer support whenever needed, regardless of the time of day or night.I would not hesitate to recommend Independence Village of Oxford to anyone looking for a caring and supportive environment for their loved ones. The leadership and community's commitment to create a warm and nurturing atmosphere makes this an ideal choice for families seeking peace of mind and the best quality of life for their loved ones.

My father has been here for nearly three years (the independent living side of the facility), and we have nothing but great things to say about it. The friendly and attentive staff, excellent quality meals, and access to health services if he needs it. From the director [name removed] to staff...[name removed], [name removed], [name removed] (too many to name), it is a well-run and beautiful facility. There are less expensive places out there, but in this case you definitely get what you pay for to ensure your loved one(s) are safe and well taken care of.
