Lakeview at Josey Ranch Senior Living sits in Carrollton, built in 2009, with 189 units spread across four stories, and it's managed by Sagora Senior Living, so you're getting experience and organization, and it's right near highway and freeway exits for easy travel, plus medical centers and local attractions are close by, so outings aren't a hassle, and if you don't drive, the facility offers transportation services, including scheduled and complimentary rides to appointments and events. The community offers different types of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, adult day care, hospice, respite care, and even nursing and rehab, and residents can stay as independent as they choose with aging-in-place options, so there's no need to move again if more help is needed later. The apartments range from one- to three-bedroom options, including arrangements like 1 Bed/1 Bath, 2 Bed/1 Bath, 2 Bed/2 Bath, 3 Bed/2 Bath, and even 3 Bed/3 Bath, with spacious layouts starting at 1,100 square feet for the two-bedroom homes, and every apartment comes with a full kitchen, balconies or patios, extra storage, and views of the lake, pond, pool, or rose garden if you get a lucky spot, and all utilities except telephone are included, so you don't have many monthly bills to juggle.
Pets are welcome, up to two per resident with some breed restrictions and a $500 non-refundable fee, and the facility keeps everything tidy with weekly housekeeping, laundry rooms, and a maintenance crew, so you aren't stuck with chores. Meals come from a restaurant-style dining room that serves food throughout the day, with nutritious options made from quality ingredients, and there's also room service if you'd rather eat in, and snacks and drinks find their way into daily life too, especially during Happy Hour or events. The social calendar stays full-bridge, dominoes, flower arranging, sing-alongs, poker tournaments, and daily classes or programs make it easy to keep busy, and if you like something quieter, the library, computer lounge, or card room are ready, while the arts and crafts room and Activity Room help keep hands moving.
Wellness plays a big role, so there's a fitness center with bikes, TRX straps, and a recumbent stepper, plus occupational and physical therapy on site and nurse support available around the clock, with doctors on call and regular visits from podiatrists, dentists, and home health providers, which makes it much easier than arranging all of that off campus. Accessibility is top of mind with wheelchair friendly showers, elevators, and wide halls, and there's a parking garage for your car if you still drive. Residents can visit a beauty and barber shop in the building for haircuts and more, and the clubhouse has a fireplace and welcoming seats for neighbors to gather on chilly afternoons.
Outdoors, you'll find a peaceful rose garden, a pond with a fountain, a swimming pool with accessible entry, and a hot tub, plus plenty of tables and chairs for relaxing in the sun or shade. Indoors, common areas include a plush movie theater with a piano for music, a billiards den for pool, a game room with poker and shuffleboard, communal dining halls, the Cactus Café, and a cozy living room with its own fireplace. Security and safety matter too, with emergency response systems in every apartment, no indoor smoking, and staff that stay trained, helpful, and friendly without being overbearing.
The facility cares for both men and women, though sometimes it offers gender-specific options. Lakeview at Josey Ranch treats residents with respect and kindness and keeps a warm atmosphere thanks to details like hardwood floors, high ceilings, rustic chandeliers, stylish furnishings, and big windows that pull in lots of sunlight. The staff deliver help with daily needs-bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and chef-prepared meals-plus therapy services like physical, occupational, or speech therapy are available for those who need rehabilitation, so there's plenty of peace of mind for many different needs, big or small. The setting by Green Trail Lake means there are nice views and some fresh air, which can be hard to come by in other big facilities, and there's always a social event or class on the calendar if you want to try something new or just chat with new friends.
