My parents' experience
My father died in 2017, but my mother continues to live at the Fountains, now over 15 years. She moved to the Assisted Living residence in 2021. Overall, this has been a great place for both of them. They were active residents on the Board, bridge players, and friends of everyone. My mother will be 99 in July 2023, but her mind is sound and she appreciates that Assisted Living has what she needs at her time in life. We toyed with the idea of moving her to the DC area where we live, but the Fountains offers so much more than we could find here, plus she has personal ties there and better weather.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your parents' happiness living at The Fountains. By your description, I know who your parents are and they were and are special people. I had the pleasure of working closely with them, because they were so involved in the community. Residents of The Fountains' are what makes our community wonderful. I love seeing your Mom enjoying herself at the assisted living and we often reminisce about the times we accomplished projects when she was President of the Independent Living Resident Council. Her face just lights up. Thank you again for leaving a review. If there is anything you or your Mom needs, please let us know. Sincerely, Peggy Beasley Executive Director

Life at the FountaIns
We live at the Town Center at the Fountains at Lake Pointe Woods. The most important facets of living here are the very friendly and caring residents; and the very pleasant and delightful staff. The feeling during this lock-down due to the virus...we are safe and secure. We may not always be happy with the restrictions, but we are all well and getting very good care. We feel lucky to be here. Thank you,

New residents happy so far!
This is a preliminary review. We moved our 91-yr-old parents to a two-room apartment at the Inn three days before Hurricane Irma hit in early September. We could not have been happier with the care they got. Storm prep and communications from management were superior. So far, facility is very nice, food is excellent, and staff members are attentive and friendly. The facts that the Inn has medical personnel on site 24/7, allows pets, has a great pool, and has spacious and lovely grounds were major factors in our selection of this facility over newer and fancier locatons. So far, so good!

We know the Fountains very well as my Mom was there for 11 years. It is nice but older construction and always seem to turnover staff. Is a property that we might consider. The villas are new but quite expensive and all residences require a buy-in in the independent living buildings. Two bedrooms and Villas take 5-8 year wait.

Thank you for choosing The Fountains; I’m glad your Mother had 11 happy years here. I appreciate your review and the opportunity to address and clarify. Most of our associates have been here long term. The serving staff turns over, because they are students but otherwise we have a great retention rate. We are a membership buy in community, but our monthly rates are much lower than similar rentals because of the initial membership fee. We’re happy to walk you through a comparison if you’d like. We do have waiting lists for our popular Villas and two bedroom residences, but we have had some come available in the past six months and there will definitely not be a 5 year wait. Thank you for your review and the opportunity to respond! Please feel free to call us any time for coffee or questions. Sincerely, Peggy Beasley, Executive Director Posted on behalf of Peggy Beasley.

After searching for a place for my DAD in Sarasota, we decided on The Fountains, it has been almost 3 years now that my Dad has lived here, my family could not be happier with this place. Frances who is in charge of the Dining Room could not go out of his way more to please not only my family but my father, he is absolutely the best. Sylvia is another one of the staff that is just wonderful, she always is thinking of creative ideas for the residents, my Dad just adores her. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great home away from home. The grounds are also absolutely beautiful. I give this place a 5 star. Thanks to this place we can rest easy at night knowing our Dad is safe.

When you enter the community you are greeted by a very friendly smiling concierge. While moving throughout the community staff are always asking if you need assistance. Residents are smiling and friendly. Administration and Nursing staff are very caring and responsive to the needs of the residents.

The Fountains is the place to go
Our dad lived in the assisted living residences at The Fountains for the last year of his life. He was 89 years old when he moved in. We cannot say enough about the quality of his experience at The Inn. The staff is superb. The restaurant is wonderful and managed by Francis, who could not have been nicer or more accomodating. The nurses are so caring and responsive. They are extremely positive and work with you to find the best solutions. The administration is wonderful, too, and all about solutions. Paige [removed] is competent, caring and available. Most importantly, the caregivers, housekeeping and restaurant staff who have the most frequent contact with the residents are the BEST! They made our dad feel welcomed and loved. We would not hesitate to make the same decision again. Best in Sarasota, best in Florida!

Thanks very much for providing a review of our community. Please do visit for a meal and at that time, we’d love to show you a few more residences to see if we have something more your style. With 13 different floor plans, there’s something that nearly everyone will like. Although you can always call to schedule a visit to dine, we have Discovery Lunch options coming up February 25th and March 31st. Please give us a call to RSVP as these fill quickly.

Best Decision Ever!
My wife and I moved into The Fountains at Lake Pointe Woods three years ago and have never regretted that decision for a minute. Everything about the place suits us to a "T" - beautiful apartments of varying sizes and a 53 acre campus, excellent cuisine, experienced management, reasonable fees and a caring staff. But the biggest unexpected bonus for us was making so many new friends! We feel that we have truly achieved peace of mind with this move.

Wonderful place to live!
My husband and I recently moved into the Independent living facility at The Fountains. We have a beautiful apartment and each day we comment to each other " We made the right decision." The food is excellent! Maybe too good as we have gained a little weight already. The staff is very friendly and helpful. As it is independent living they do not provide any kind of health care. Just a nurse from the assisted living facility who comes once a week to check blood pressure if you desire to do so. They also provide Flu shots once a year. All of this is made clear before you move in. We looked at many places before deciding on the Fountains. We liked the campus and the staff and the food. We felt this this was a great value for our money. We hope to enjoy it for many years.

Beyond Friendly!
The Fountains at Lake Pointe woods was by fr the best place for the money that we looked at in Florida. The staff and people there were friendly and accommodating of my mother's needs and they really went above and beyond. The property is large, so keep in mind that transportation to some of the amenities on the other side of property is needed.

Better Values are available
Not a good value. A dear friend of mine moved into Independent Living and then moved out. They charge an upfront fee that does not go to any healthcare. After checking around many in the area myself, I found that most charge this fee but it is for a guarantee of care. The Fountains does not offer this. It is simply a privilege to live there. My friend moved out 8 years ago and is still waiting on a partial refund. The Director even phoned her to ask her to take less so they could resell this apartment, allthewhile this apartment has seen a price increase numerous times over that 8 years. Do your homework and know what you are getting into. Many better value options in town. At 81, I try to stay young and active but this place was for "Old" people.

Thank you for the feedback on behalf of your friend. Our residents do especially appreciate the grounds, residences, dining, concierge and events here at The Fountains. As we speak with prospective residents about our fee structures we are very clear that our membership fee does not include healthcare services, which many residents cover with long term care insurance. While it is true that we have a few apartments that have not re-sold in several years, they are the exception. In these cases we may suggest a reduction in refund to stimulate a sale, but Watermark will match or even double the reduction. I’m very sorry to hear that your friend did not find her ideal home here at The Fountains and hope that she has found the community that’s just right for her. Best regards, Peggy Beasley, Executive Director, The Fountains at Lake Pointe Woods.

Consumer beware
My father lived in the community for about 6 -7 yrs and really enjoyed the activities and the friendships he made. It is a very beautiful community and the food is very good. Beware though - you will not get the large entrance fee back if you or your loved one needs to move somewhere else for medical reasons. The contract states it will not be refunded until the apartment is occupied. This can take years - so far my father's apartment is empty 11 months after he left. My father's health declined suddenly last year and I had to move him closer to family. Most of his money was tied up in this community and it could be years until he get this chunk of money back - this is a huge problem for us! Six years ago the apartments were filling much faster than they are now and we did not foresee this issue. The other concern is that many people assume they can use the skilled nursing located on the property if needed, but the facility turned my father down when he was being release from the hospital and needed skilled nursing.

Thank you for your feedback, I would be happy to discuss further if you could call me at your convenience. I want to assure you that when a resident moves out, we start marketing the apartment immediately to get your refund to you as quickly as possible. We will continue with the superior food and programming that your Dad enjoyed, and we have recently undergone an exterior renovation and painting to satisfy current residents and attract new ones as well. While it's impossible to predict the future, the Sarasota real estate market continues to improve and we are experiencing a very high level of interest. We have a strong sales team in place and we do expect success in filling vacancies. Again, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you’d like to discuss further. Sincerely, Peggy Beasley Executive Director

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 Florida 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 Florida regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Barclay at Sarasota

The Barclay at Sarasota offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Barclay at Sarasota 8.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
