Recent reviews for independent living in Driftwood
Brookdale Beckett Meadows in Austin, TX
4.3
People are very friendly and caring. They are staffing up a bit which is helping. Any issues we have had is directly related to not having enough people power to handle the demand.
Overall, the car has been good. It is clean. The food is good. The activities are plentiful.
Sodalis Austin
4.3
The medical Director, the executive Director, the sales Director and the receptionist were always very welcoming and available anytime I needed them. The only thing that was a little slow was that sometimes when my dad pushed the button on his pendant, it took longer than we expected.
The Continental Retirement Community in Austin, TX
4.8
What we like the most about The Continental Retirement Community is the book club, transportation and the library. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.
