Overview of Watercrest Spanish Springs

Facebook

Watercrest Spanish Springs offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Lady Lake, FL. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks, memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

Having these care levels in one community can allow a resident whose needs grow to move to a different level of support without leaving the community. The community has 100 beds and offers suite accommodations, giving residents a suite-style living arrangement rather than a single standard room.

Starting prices are $5,595 for assisted living and $6,595 for memory care, so families can compare the entry price for each care level. Pets are allowed, which means a resident may bring a pet when moving to the community.

Chef-prepared meals and restaurant-style dining give residents an on-site dining setting, while salon services provide grooming appointments within the community. Verandas and outdoor living spaces give residents places to spend time outside, and transportation is available for residents who need rides. The community is administered by Shana Gresh and operated by PX SHS Spanish Springs Operator; it is in the Spanish Springs neighborhood. A Walk Score of 38 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride.
