What we like the most about the community is the value for the money, administrative staff, and friendliness of residents. Yes, we would definitely recommend The Fairfax community to other families based on the experience so far.

The Fairfax is a lovely continuing care community located in a beautiful area near Fort Belvoir, VA. We were warmly welcomed by the Director of Sales. She gave us a very nice tour & answered all our questions. The grounds are beautiful & very well kept. There’s a picturesque lake & pond on the grounds with a view from many apartments. We highly recommend you include The Fairfax on your “must see” list when looking for a continuing care community!

Our overall experience is definitely 5 stars. The staff is very friendly, welcoming, I have no negative comments on anything. Food, choices, service, cleanliness, all great.

I have been a Resident of The Fairfax at Belvoir Woods for the past five years. I would encourage anyone who is looking for a Retirement Community and qualify to consider making the transition to live here. It is now my home and I have found peace here. We have a wonderful caring staff to help us in anyway that they can, and we have a great atmosphere in our day to day living. We have many activities to keep us in good shape in mind and body.

I have lived here for 7 years and I love it! The residents are all very friendly and the staff is wonderful. Because of the environment and a beautiful campus I am very healthy at almost 84. We have a nutritious and amazing food service department, a beautiful lake and lots of walking paths, a wonderful activities department, indoor pool and gym as well as numerous exercise classes to only name a few.

I love that my mom doesn't have to deal with bad weather because all walkways are covered indoor passages. My mom loves the gift shop. She also is very appreciative that there is medical staff on site. As her daughter i appreciate the shuttle service that is offered.

This facility left a strong impression on me. It’s clean, welcoming, and well-organized. The nursing staff are knowledgeable, skilled, and attentive, demonstrating strong clinical judgment while providing compassionate care. Residents are treated with dignity and respect, and the overall environment reflects a high standard of quality and professionalism. It’s heartwarming and comforting to know there are places like this where people are genuinely looked after.

My mother has been a resident at The Fairfax for 13 years. For the first 12 years, before she moved to assisted living, she occupied a lovely and spacious apartment on the independent living side, with a screened-in patio overlooking the lake. The buildings and grounds at The Fairfax are quite pleasant and attractive, but what really makes the facility stand out is the staff. During her years in independent living, most of her contacts with the Fairfax staff came in the main dining room, where my mother still eats many meals with her friends. I have frequently shared a meal with her there, and found the dining room staff to be very friendly and accommodating toward her. Many of them know her and greet her warmly by name. For the last year, she has been a resident in the assisted living wing. Her transition to assisted living was made much easier by the Fairfax staff. My mother is now wheelchair-bound, so the aides assist her in getting out of bed, cleaned up, and dressed in the morning. They make sure that she gets to the dining room for every meal, and they get her into bed at night. Mom has developed real affection for her two primary aides, due to the caring way that they treat her. As a result, her adaptation to assisted living was much easier and faster than expected. For my part, I was treated generously and graciously by staff members at every level of the organization, up to and including the Executive Director, as I managed mom’s transition. Usually I made appointments, but sometimes I dropped in to their offices hoping they were available. On these occasions, they would inevitably set aside what they were doing and devote their attention to me. This was a busy and stressful time for me, and I will always be grateful for their generosity and personal attention toward me. The medical staff and the activities staff are involved in mom’s life on a daily basis. The nurses manage her prescriptions, and administer her medications every morning and evening. Mom is visited regularly by the physician’s assistant, who evaluates her and recommends visits to specialists, or changes to her prescriptions, as necessary. The activities staff makes sure that she is invited to every special event, and even pushes her wheelchair if she wants to go. All of these wonderful people are constantly keeping a close eye on mom, and call me if there is anything that they think I should know. Whenever I visit, they are busy, but they always take time to talk to me and tell me how she is doing and what she has been up to.

An excellent home for those needing independent care, senior living , memory care and LifeCare. Great staff of employees who really care about your health and your needs. Fees for apartments are the cheapest I have seen for all the amenities this facility offers. Monthly fees includes gas, electricity, water, sewer, trash removal, home security, home insurance, property tax, home repairs and maintenance, personal emergency response system, social and leisure activities and more

So glad I came to this wonderful facility which now I call my home! The team members are so warm, welcoming, well informed and very helpful, the facility is so appealing to the eye and to the soul, more like a country club, the food is truly delicious, the activities are wonderful in every way, there is something for every taste, the service is unsurpassed, the residents are so warm, welcoming and loving, right away you feel like they are your own family. I highly recommend The Fairfax to anyone who is ready to transition into this amazing life style!

Wonderful senior living space with graduated care from individual cottages, 1 through 3 bedroom apartments to full memory care. Beautiful grounds, Wonderful programs and amenities but what makes this place great is the staff.

Great new friends, Fabulous location, and wonderful activities and facilities.

Upscale nursing home and assisted living facility. Huge compound. They accept some insurance and Medicare A plans. Skilled nursing facilkty admission and physical therapy is really expensive but care seems on spot in health center/skilled nursing facility with physicians presence. I haven't placed my patient or elderly yet but visited to have an idea.

Mine was a virtual tour. I had a [Name removed] walked me right through the process. She was professional, friendly, and informative. I left with a favorable impression of the staff and facility. Note: for these facilities in the DC area income tax comparison for the 3 jurisdictions (VA, MD, DC) could be provided for those with military and federal pensions for those of us moving into the area.

I had a shoulder replacement and needed care for a few weeks. Help came in the basic needs of good food, pain management, hygiene, beginnings of rehabilitation therapy and personal care. I tell my friends I was on vacation while staying in the Skilled Nursing floor. We had entertainment also.
