FAQ

Vista Point at Fairview will expand upon our current Life Plan Community, also known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community or CCRC, offering nearly 200 independent residential maintenance-free living units for adults age 62 or better. These residents who we refer to as “life champions” will benefit from services, great food and amenities in a dynamic, fun, and stimulating environment. Modern health care options delivered by an organization that puts resident needs first will also be available, setting us apart from other living arrangements like traditional active adult communities. A one-time entrance fee along with monthly fees offers lifetime residency, enjoyment of amenities, and access to on-site health care. This continuum provides genuine peace of mind and security for a predictable future so each of our life champions can truly live their best lives on our beautiful, waterfront campus community.

Our selection of luxury independent living floor plans will include 13 different floor plan options ranging in size from 824 square feet up to 1,600 square feet. They will offer high-end finishes and all will have either a walk-out patio or balcony for outdoor access.
