This place is awesome! The Waterleaf at Land Park has the nicest staff and lots of activities. If you are looking for a safe, fun, beautiful, affordable place for your elderly loved ones I highly recommend The Waterleaf at Land Park.

Waterleaf in one word is a shitshow. The high female staff of this low assisted living is a disgrace to the elderly who live there, with the facade of beauty and the inner workings of a clock that's ticker is going too fast. Though in this small community there are beams of light, but few and fading.

The workers here, are disrespectful, rude, rough, and the only reason why they are there is for money, not because they want a future in health care and not because they want to help you. They will not put in care for your parents, they will not put your parents needs first before their own. I know it's hard to find a care faculty that is even decent, this is one that may look very nice from the outside and clean on the inside, but the workers, and the managers do not fit the bill. Though, I do appreciate the housekeepers, and the med techs. The housekeepers are full of heart, diligent, warm, sweet
