Chateau McKinney

Patricia

The Chateau was very nice, but the rooms were kinda small. After I went there, I realized that's not a place I want to go yet. There were things that I wanted like an attached garage (which they did not have) and a patio (which they did not have for the independent living). I guess I didn't feel I was ready for The Chateau. They had activities, a gym, swimming, bingo, and painting. They had a big movie room, and they show movies periodically. They had card games. The staff was wonderful. The lady that gave us the tour was just the nicest, most pleasant, very informed, and very kind. Everything looked good. The other thing that I was amazed at was it was so big. I was thinking that I'll get lost here. She said if you leave your place and you keep walking, you'll end up back at your place because it's a square.

My mom is living at The Chateau. It's great and she's getting used to it. She gets three meals a day and I don't have to worry about her cooking for herself. The facility is all indoors and she has indoor hallways so she doesn't have to go outside in inclement weather. The staff is all very caring. They have a lot of activities. It was also the least expensive place.

The Chateau was nice, and I liked the two-bedroom apartment. The people and staff were nice and very friendly. They served three meals.

The Chateau is OK. Everybody is really nice, and I am pleased with the apartment. Everything is OK. The food is OK, and the rooms are good. They have card games, exercises, dominoes, movies, Bible study, and other things.

The Chateau was a beautiful place. I would love to live there. The amenities were just amazing. They had a 24-hour coffee bar and snacks, and the dining room with salad bar was just amazing. They even treated us for lunch one day. I ate really good fried shrimp. They even had a pool. It was a beautiful place; unfortunately, it was independent. We had a wake up call that my mom was not a candidate for independent living anymore. It would be too dangerous because she has dementia, so this community was not an option for her at all.

The visit at The Chateau was very nice also. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We had a delightful visit and enjoyed touring the facility. There was a quite a price difference between this facility and the other facility we visited. We had lunch there, and the food was wonderful. They did a very nice thing for us, that they put us with another couple that we can talk with about the facility, and I thought that was very nice.

The tour at the Chateau was OK; it was a very nice facility. It has a lot of amenities; there’s a pool. The rooms were just a little bit not to the liking of my dad, but we liked the lay out.

I have lived in the Chateau for the past 6 months. . My husband had died and I needed to be nearer to our only child. My daughter and I located this on Internet! We scheduled a tour! It was/is far nicer than I ever imagined I would be able to live in? The amenities are far superior to the places I had checked out and much more reasonably priced! You need to check it out if u are in need of a new living situation.I

The Chateau was a very nice place, and we had a very good experience there. They were very nice, and the tour went well. The facility was a little newer. I walked away very impressed with it and liked it a lot. It had a large common dining room and an ancillary smaller dining area set up for tables of four to eight, which allowed for small and large groups. It was table service, so they take your order and serve you.

The reason why I chose The Chateau is because it had an attached garage, and it also had solid flooring. There was no carpet and no need to make any changes. All the entryways were handicapped-accessible, and it also had no need for a cutout in the tub. It was a walk-in shower, which was huge. Their apartments were bigger compared to the other place I saw.

I visited The Chateau. It’s a very nice place with good food and good entertainment. The rooms were nice. They have several activities available.

I visited the Chateau, and it was probably one of the better ones that I looked at. They were bigger rooms, the dining area was large, and it was nice.

My mother liked the Chateau very much, and the experience was very positive. The thing that she likes about the environment is that it is a retirement apartment with amenities and three meals a day, which is what she needs. She loves the freedom to be able to go where she want to at the same time have somebody cook meals for her. There were some things that she is getting used to, but I think it’s more a matter of adjustment. It had a lot of great views and it was only 4 miles away from us.

I visited one a couple of weeks ago in McKinney, but I haven't made a decision. The name of the place is The Chateau. The staff was very nice and very helpful. They answered any questions, took me around, and showed me the various apartments. They were nice. It is a nice facility, but I'm not ready to move in there, and I don't have the resource to do that right now anyway. There was some kind of person there leading a song or singing a song. The apartments were nice and well done.

I wish I had known places like this existed before my husband died. We would have been so much more comfortable and his life would have been enhanced being around others our age and activities that didn't require a vehicle to get to. Instead of being cooped up in the house, he would have access to many activities in his wheelchair. But now that its just me, I feel safe and carefree for the first time since he died. My kids are relieved. And most of all I'm very happy that I made this move before I "had" to. My kids don't have to go through a monster of a house sorting through things that should have been trashed long before. No sorting, no burden on them. I culled my possessions down to only what I needed and what they didn't take, the Salvation Army was happy to. I am so relieved that everything is done. But most of all I love the small space, lots of windows, high ceilings and decorated to my taste, its beautiful. I love that our front doors are enclosed in a locked building with security gates. Yet the way it was designed gives me plenty of privacy and actually more room than I need. And I have to admit that I love not living around children and teens and partying adults. Set back off the road, it is private and surrounded by green space, yet in the heart of McKinney and very close to all my family. This is what retirement should be like, a vacation at a plush hotel condo, all inclusive.

My grandmother is now living in The Chateau. Her apartment is really nice. It is an all inclusive facility and has a lot of things for seniors. The staff working there is very friendly and helpful. I would say that the food and their dining room are adequate.They usually play cards, bingo and watch movies. They also have trips to places like casinos.

The Chateau was very, very nice. It was a little casual than the other facility. It was more casual living; it was not quite so high-end. They have everything that you can imagine. They have activities. They have movie theater, billiards, game room, exercise room, I mean, they have everything. They have social recreations. They take them on trips to places. It is actually where I'm going to put my dad. The apartments were extremely reasonable for the amount of space you get. They have a lot of apartments for a lot less than what the other facility has. The food was great. It was awesome. It was excellent. All the people were very, very friendly there. I would definitely recommend this place.
