I will be moving into Touchmark at The Ranch. It is a one-bedroom apartment with a good-sized living room, a decent-sized bedroom, a good closet space, and an outdoor terrace. For an extra fee, I was able to rent a storage room down in the basement. They have a built-in health club that you automatically become a member of. They have a swimming pool, hot tubs, and massage tables. They have parking available. What I like about the facility is that I can live in my independent living apartment for as long as I can do it. If I should deteriorate, and when necessary, they would move me into a comparable apartment where the facility is more to my needs. They are all seriously interested in protecting their clients. Everyone I've met has been courteous, polite, and concerned. Of the facilities that I have personally seen, this is the best. They have three restaurants. One of them is a very fine restaurant open to the public, and it's expensive. But they also give you a monthly allowance to use. The physical facilities are top-level. They have movies, occasional concerts, a calendar of events, and transportation into town.

We toured Touchmark at The Ranch. It's absolutely beautiful and it's everything anybody could want. But they want a huge down payment, hundreds of thousands of dollars, and that's not acceptable. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. They have a gym, a salon, and a nice swimming pool. The facilities are wonderful. The whole place is just beautiful, and I couldn't find anything to criticize.
