Overview of The Doliver of Tanglewood

Twenty-nine; that’s how many dedicated Alzheimer’s units sit inside The Doliver of Tanglewood, out of 74 total beds, which tells you something about where this Houston community has chosen to specialize. It opened in August 2022 at 504 Bering Drive in Tanglewood, so it’s young, about three years in, administered by Bruce Hutmacher under Anthology Holdings, LLC. Pricing starts at $4,195 a month for one- and two-bedroom units.

The building itself is mid-rise, apartment-style, sitting in a moderately walkable stretch of Houston (Walk Score 55). Not a walking paradise, but enough that some errands don’t require getting in the car first.

Alzheimer’s certification backs up those 29 dedicated units, and 24-hour staffing runs across the whole community regardless of which level of care a resident needs. That combination, certification plus dedicated unit count plus round-the-clock coverage, is a more specific memory-care commitment than a lot of assisted living communities make.

Lifestyle amenities lean toward the substantial: an outdoor pool, fitness center, theater, and a salon and spa. It’s pet-friendly too, so a resident with a dog or cat doesn’t have to choose between the move and the companion. Transportation services handle outings and appointments beyond the property.

Regulatory attention here has centered on fire-safety systems, emergency preparedness, and documentation and care planning, the standard categories inspectors look at across senior living generally, not anything unique to this address.

What The Doliver of Tanglewood ultimately offers is assisted living built around a genuine memory-care specialty, wrapped in a newer, well-amenitized building in one of Houston’s more established neighborhoods.

Starting Price $4,195/Month

How many independent living communities are listed on this page?

This page features 418 independent living communities in Texas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right independent living community in Texas?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing.
