About Us

Stevenson Oaks is named for the sturdy chinkapin oak and for Rev. William Stevenson, the first Methodist circuit rider in Texas. Rev. Stevenson rode horseback through early Texas settlements, preaching and teaching. His efforts had a civilizing effect, helping those small communities turn the corner from surviving to thriving. We honor him by creating a community in which seniors can learn, grow, embrace the arts, remain richly engaged and find fulfillment – all Fort Worth-style. EVERYONE IS WELCOME! Our charter requires that you’re at least 62 at move-in. For couples, at least 1 of you must be 62 or older. And that’s it. We welcome pets and a big beautiful cross section of humanity, regardless of gender, race, religion, disability, or nationality. METHODIST RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES (MRC) Established in 1962, Methodist Retirement Communities (MRC) serves over 2,000 residents in 13 senior living communities each year, including College Station, Bryan, Huntsville, Lufkin, Texarkana, La Porte, Corpus Christi, League City, and Fort Worth with a central office in The Woodlands. MRC’s roots go deep in the Lone Star State with communities stretching from the Texas coastline to the pines of East Texas and many places in-between.
