Pioneer Ridge Gracious Retirement Living sits at 7210 Linkside Point Dr in McKinney, Texas, where the neighborhood stays quiet and the lawns are well-kept, plus you're near churches, stores, and The Hospital at Craig Ranch, which isn't far away. This community offers a mid-rise building designed for seniors aged 55 and over, with over 40 floor plans to choose from - there are studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and they all have roomy living areas, kitchenettes, patios, wall-to-wall carpet, and cable TV, with emergency pull cords linked to management. Residents can bring pets if they want, and every apartment can be equipped with safety fixtures for those with disabilities.
People get three fresh, homemade meals a day from the executive chef and culinary team, and those meals come with the monthly rent, just like weekly housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and maintenance. Staff's around all the time, day and night, with live-in managers who try to make things feel like family, and residents get help with arranging third-party care if needed. Transportation is included for doctor appointments, shopping, and local trips, and there's help with scheduling those outings as well as trips for errands or even personalized community tours.
Pioneer Ridge focuses on independent living for seniors who don't need daily assistance, and offers spaces where people can relax over puzzles, coffee, or books with friends, or join in for live entertainment, television and movie nights, or devotional services. There's a full calendar filled with activities like arts and crafts, exercise classes, health and wellness programs, and chances for educational programs, outings, and even travel both inside and outside the country. The Resident Travel Program lets you stay up to seven nights at any Hawthorn Senior Living community across the United States, enjoying their meals, guest suites, and community activities at no extra cost.
Besides independent living, there are also assisted living and memory care services on the same campus, with special communities for adults living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and a licensed skilled nursing facility offers skilled care if someone's health needs change, so people don't have to move away. Common areas, wide hallways, outdoor spaces, and community galleries give residents plenty of places to gather with neighbors or see what's going on, while Activity Directors plan outings, events, and engaging activities every day, aiming to keep everyone connected and active. All-inclusive rent covers electricity, gas, water, sewer, basic cable, transportation, caring staff, meals, and activities. Pioneer Ridge Gracious Retirement Living has an average 4.5-star rating from about 20 reviews, and for families who need it, there are resources for long-term care insurance and guidance with caregiving.
