My loved one is currently a resident at The Craig Senior Living and it has been a great experience. Everyone has been outstanding. From the janitorial staff to the administration, everyone has gone the extra mile to be helpful and cheerful. I would definitely recommend The Craig Senior Living to others.

mom is happy, a perfect fit, highly recommended for retirement living
I would rate all questions with a 5. Mom is really happy there. Apartments are the most spacious for the price and very updated. Staff is very helpful. Location is great. It has far exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend The Craig to others looking.

a friendly place to go
The overall value for cost is really good - now they are in the process of changing hands so we will just have to wait and see if the value changes at all. Our loved one really likes the meals and dining service, there have been no complaints there. There are plenty of different activities going on nearly everyday - sometimes our loved ones forgets but they do a great job sending our monthly newsletter's, calling the residents, and posting them on the calendar. Based on our experience so far we would recommend The Craig Senior Living community to other families.

They're awesome at this facility. My mom is very happy here. Everything has been above and beyond our expectations. She's been able to use their transportation services and it's been great. She was on time and no issues, she said it was great. She really is pleased with everything here. We made a great choice and couldn't ask for more. I would certainly recommend them to friends and family.

I Toured This Community
We were not impressed with the community, the rooms in the memory care unit was not very big, there are bathrooms in between two rooms, you had the option to take both bedrooms but with an upcharge or just take one bedroom and have to share a bathroom with another resident. There was not enough individual care for the residents.

Tour of The Craig
I toured The Craig Senior Living and the community was nice, with very nice people who showed me around. We chose another community because The Craig does not accommodate or accept those who smoke. Once we were told that, we didn't feel the need to look further into their community.

We Have Appreciated Their Service And It Has Been Helpful
The Craig is a good place. The pandemic has changed several things for including the food. The food is being delivered to the residents now. The community has several activities for the residents to choose from outside of the pandemic.

Overall very satisfied!
So far our overall experience with this community has been excellent. Our loved one loves the staff members there. With COVID the food is being delivered to their rooms, and the quality of the food is not as good as what it used to be when they could eat in the dining room.

we focused mainly on the Independent Living side of things at The Craig & could not be more impressed. What a beautiful place! Everyone was friendly & courteous. The grounds are spectacular. We had only a brief tour of the Assisted Living side of the facility & at face value it did not look like what we were looking for. We would need to go back again before making a decision.

The assisted living rooms looked like hospital rooms
I toured this community and I think, as far as their independent living is concerned, they’re good. I didn’t like the assisted living much because it was more like a nursing home. The rooms in the assisted living side were very small, more like a hospital room. I saw their dining area and they had a buffet that looked pretty good. I was able to interact with the supervisors of the different wings and they seemed to be knowledgeable about the facility. Ultimately, the location wasn’t ideal so we decided against this community.

I love my new home!
I wasn't looking for a room to rent in a mixed Independent and Assisted Living community. I was looking for a home and a new lifestyle. The Craig was the perfect fit. The 60ft buffet is filled with a delicious variety of 5 star cuisine! The dining staff are kind and they are also superior. There is indeed a "sloped" walk to the dining room but its so beneficial, and not a problem for residents. Those who have difficulty, use a scooter because you have plenty of space to enjoy! You should see the small lake with all the baby goslings! I am delighted I made The Craig my home.

Hallways are on a slope.
We toured this community and liked it. It's very spacious and elegant. I was very impressed with it. However the hallways are on a slope to the dining room, and that would not have worked for my loved ones. It was very nice, but just not the right fit for us.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for my loved one. Everything we saw during our tour looked very nice, it was a well kept clean community, and the staff were all very friendly and professional. This wasn't the community we ended up selecting but was definitely somewhere we considered.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Texas regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Texas regulations for Assisted Living.
