Overview of Legacy Reserve at Fairview Park

At 538 Harrison Bridge Rd in Simpsonville, South Carolina, Legacy Reserve at Fairview Park runs as a three-story community covering assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care. Housing comes in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom sizes, and pricing starts from $3,200 up to $6,000 a month.

A Walk Score of 44 out of 100 means a few nearby services are reachable on foot, though most errands still call for a car. For families with an animal in the household, pets are welcome here too.

Respite care is built into the offering, useful for families who need a short-term stay rather than a full move. What stands out most, though, is the amenity list: an indoor heated saltwater pool and a theatre aren’t standard features at most communities this size, and they sit alongside a fitness center, multiple dining venues, and an outdoor terrace. Transportation services and additional fitness and recreation programming fill in the rest.

Four care types, real price flexibility across a wide range, and a genuinely distinctive amenity set point to a community built for families who want breadth in care options alongside a fuller slate of lifestyle features, rather than a smaller, no-frills setup.

South Carolina Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including South Carolina) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
