Recent reviews of Independent Living in Gunston Manor, VA
Forest Hills of DC in Washington, DC
4.6

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

English Meadows Prince William Campus in Manassas, VA

The community really helped my loved one improve his mobility and he was himself again. The community was clean and neat and the staff was very friendly. I would recommend this community to others.

Victoria Park in Woodbridge, VA

Management Staff is very professional and patient...much experience in senior needs and challenges. Maintenance request and response have been on point. Although, desire that the maintenance department be more focused in repairs so as to avoid repetition of the same job. Desire that parking be monitored more. Would not mind paying a fee for a reserved parking spot. Overall, this community is a good place to retire and call home. Very convenient for your shopping, banking, and spiritual needs.
