    Cons

      Review

      As a visiting physician, I've had the privilege of witnessing many senior care options, but I am genuinely impressed by the staff here. What stands out most is the personal involvement of the owners themselves, which translates into a level of care and attentiveness that feels rare. The family-style atmosphere and the hands-on dedication from the leadership give families a sense of trust and peace of mind. I can confidently say that I highly recommend this home, where the heart of the operation is clearly visible in everyday interactions and decisions.

      This remarkable home is described as intimate and nurturing, with up to seven residents, and it is located in the Willow Ridge neighborhood in Prosper. The story of how families arrive here is telling: my own mother suffered a serious fall at an assisted living facility, fractured her back, and then fell again at a local rehab center. We moved her here a few weeks ago, and the care she receives is described as being like family. The staff's commitment to safety and comfort is evident in small but meaningful acts - Roxanna even spends the night in the room when she senses fear or discomfort, which speaks volumes about the level of reassurance and presence offered to residents and their families. The home's long-standing presence - over 17 years - adds to the sense that this is a trusted, well-established place where those who run it truly know how to care for their residents.

      Another family's experience centers on the owners and the entire staff as a model of excellence. In this account, Roxanne and Horatio are highlighted for being helpful, capable, trustworthy, and kind. The staff as a whole is said to exceed expectations, and the overall effect is that a father becomes not only safe but happy and content. These testimonials emphasize not just medical or physical safety but emotional well-being and fulfillment, suggesting that the care here goes beyond routine tasks to actively supporting residents' happiness and quality of life.

      There is also a strong sense of authenticity and warmth in describing this place as a genuine, loving home. One reviewer notes that it was the fifth and last place they visited for their mother, and it was a moment of relief and gratitude to have found such a caring environment. The attention to detail and the remarkable staff help put the reviewer at ease, and both the mother and the reviewer felt they were part of a family. This sense of belonging - coupled with professional, diligent caregiving - appears to be a defining feature of the experience here.

      A further personal touch underscores the welcoming culture: the home consistently takes good care of residents and remains friendly and inviting. One reviewer specifically thanks Roxane and Horatio for celebrating a mom's birthday with the family, illustrating how everyday moments of joy are integrated into care. These gestures - recognizing milestones and creating opportunities for meaningful connections - reflect a commitment to treating residents with dignity, respect, and joy, reinforcing the sense that life remains vibrant in a supportive home setting.

      Finally, the professional aspect of the experience should not be overlooked. The reviews commend great customer service, with professional and helpful communication throughout the entire process. This emphasis on clear, respectful, and proactive engagement from the moment a family begins the search through ongoing care demonstrates a holistic approach to care that values families as partners. The combination of personal, involved ownership; a strong, compassionate staff; a secure and home-like environment; and a respectful, professional process makes this home stand out as a trusted option for loved ones in need of assisted living or residential care.

      Taken together, these experiences paint a picture of a care home where the owners' direct involvement permeates every level of operation. The environment is intimate, with a small resident population that allows for individualized attention. The staff's dedication to safety, comfort, and emotional well-being is paired with genuine acts of kindness and family-like hospitality. The location in Prosper's Willow Ridge area and the long tenure of the home further reinforce the sense of stability and reliability. For families seeking a compassionate, hands-on, and personable place for their loved ones, this home offers a compelling blend of professional care and heartfelt warmth that is difficult to match.
