The Best $1000 You'll Ever Spend!
Deciding on senior living is a major life choice, so it makes sense to want to “try before you buy.” To make the decision even easier, the Rappahannock Club was created as a proactive way to introduce future residents to Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury’s (RWC) amenities and culture.
Rappahannock Club members get special access to exclusive events, allowing them to meet others considering the transition and current residents who can share their experiences. Think of it as a way to fast-track forming friendships and getting acclimated before move-in day!
RWC’s priority reservation program serves as a short-term waiting list for those seeking accommodations that are currently unavailable. It also secures a priority position for those who are planning for the future but aren’t quite ready to move. Maintain your independence and flexibility while planning ahead with complete confidence.
Invest in Yourself
Rappahannock Club members may not be residents just yet, but we treat them as part of the RWC family. We understand that finding your future home goes beyond a tour, so club perks are designed to help you make the most of your time on campus. A refundable $1,000 deposit is required with a completed registration form.
*Continue your Living Well membership after the trial, and we’ll waive the joining fee!

The Earlier, The Better
If I had to do it all over again… I would not wait. I could have been here earlier, sooner. And that’s what I should have done.
—Phillip C.
One of the greatest gifts of living here is the peace of mind it brings—not just to us, but to our family as well.
Recently, with a big winter storm approaching, my daughter-in-law sent me a message that really touched me. She said how thankful she is for the peace of mind our choice to age well at RWC has given the whole family.
Knowing that we are safe, supported, and well cared for means everything to them. That’s what RWC truly delivers—peace of mind and safety.
And it doesn’t just affect residents; it impacts our families too. Thousands of people rest easier knowing their loved ones are in a place where they are appreciated, supported, and truly cared for.
—Kerley L.
Please note that participation in the Rappahannock Club is not a guarantee of approval for residency, nor does it grant priority access to Assisted Living or the Health Center.
If you’re ready to take the first step towards active retirement living, the best way to get the most out of your membership is to sign up while you can fully enjoy an active lifestyle. New RWC residents must meet health and financial qualifications. If you wait until you need advanced care, RWC may not have availability. Special levels of care are reserved for current residents.
