What this means for your family

The Watermark is an exceptional choice for families seeking a high-end, resort-style lifestyle with top-tier dining and engaging social programming. However, if your loved one requires intensive 24/7 nursing care, you should carefully audit the 'extra' costs beyond the base rent and inquire about staffing levels during late-night hours.

Key Review Excerpts

From the moment I met Grant Wegner (Executive Director of CNV) and David Escobar (Sales Director of CNV), I felt we were comforted and welcomed. They introduced us to the special care provided by the Luminescence Unit and urged me to give them my most loved person.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★★

The environment, amenities and personal care he received lived up to our expectations. His initial residence was a beautiful one-bedroom apartment situated in the independent living section... Later, when he needed the services of memory care, the staff made the transition to "The Gardens" absolutely seamless.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

The facility is lovely, for an able bodied person that wants resort type retirement, the care unit is not equipped to care for patients. There is not adequate staff to care for residents, so this leads to families spending extra money to get care for their family member.
