Pleasant View Retirement is a beautiful facility with amazing people who live and work there.
Pleasant View is a wonderful place, the people who live there are quite amazing. It is a warm community where there is lots to do. A place where people dress up for dinner, and the facility is always decorated, for every occasion. The building is beautiful but it is really the people that make it special! The people who live there and the people who work there! There are many trips to be part of and lots of fun and activities! Pleasant View really does a great job of taking care of people!

Sunny and warm every day
I would like to tell you about our experience at Pleasant View Retirement Center. My parents moved back to NH from FL two & a half years ago due to dad's failing health. He wasn't very happy about the move as he really hated NH winters. Everyone at PVR was very welcoming. Mom & dad settled in & were soon busy with the many activities & outings offered. They raved about the dinners (in an elegant dining room) & the Thursday social, complete with cocktails. Dad even joined the Wii bowling team! They made many friendships with staff & other residents. Last Dec, dad's health declined rapidly & he passed away [date removed]. The staff at PVR were outstanding. They helped with a ZOOM call with dad's doctor during a snow storm, they helped set up (& take down) the Hospice equipment, cleared snow off our cars & much more. Mom has remained at PVR. Even though it's not Florida, everyone there makes it feel sunny & warm no matter what the thermometer says!

An Excellent Find
The staff at Pleasant View Retirement are so friendly. Someone is always there to greet you with a smile and to help answer any questions. The housekeeping is a plus. It's a beautiful, well kept building. My loved one's small apartment was spotless. The move in process was great, too. I don't know about meals yet. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. We had to wait a bit for move in availability, but someone always kept us informed.

When I received an email in response to my inquiry at A Place For Mom, I could not have imagined it is as great as was described. I toured the available apartments and one of them was perfect for me, and my budget. Everyone here is friendly and the staff is amazing! I am so glad to be living here !

An Enjoyable Safe Haven
Pleasant View Retirement (PVR) is an exceptional retirement center for independent living. The staff members go above and beyond to make sure the resident’s needs are met promptly, and with a smile, each and every day. The facility is beautiful and the environment is friendly. There are several comfortable gathering places both inside and outside the building where family members can visit with their loved ones. The dining room is elegant and the food is excellent. When looking for a comfortable independent retirement facility, I would strongly encourage you to visit PVR.

would recommend, a nice community with friendly staff
[name removed] is very happy there and it meets her needs perfectly! We love the proximity to family and friends. She is very pleased with the level of activity and the freedom to choose which she wants to participate in. The grounds are lovely and she spends much time sitting on the various balconies in the sun reading. She also loves the library on the grounds. And she has participated in a few of the outings.

Positives WRT PVR
My husband and I came here to live 7+ years ago. Here's a synopsis of what we found: 1. An historic building with each apartment unique unto itself. A gym, a pool, a library, large central areas such as dining room, living room, solarium, second and third central areas. 2. There have been changes over the years, such as in staff personnel, building and room repairs, (Covid year), but there has consistently been helpful, qualified, and caring staff. 3. Activities such as card games, excercise classes, Holiday celebrations, and concerts. In addition there have been trips to concerts, area attractions and day trips. 4. The feeling here is that we are a family. We know a lot about each other, our ways and idiosyncrasies, We get along surprisingly well.

Home away from home
It was the warm smiles and winning smiles that came with the reception that let me know I had found the right place to call home. Everyone was helpful and welcoming, showing me the ropes. Dinner schedules, social hour, and trying to see that everyone is thought of and made welcomed. I couldn’t have asked for more. After living here four months I consider the residents to be a family. We all look out after each other and are there for each other.

Wonderful community
My parents were residents for 5+ years until they recently moved to a higher level of care. Their experience and the experience of our family with Pleasant View Retirement was outstanding! The staff members are caring, kind and accommodating, the activities are varied and fun for different abilities, and the food is wonderful with a variety of options available daily. The facilities are well kept with very nice grounds for walking or sitting outside to enjoy the weather. On top of that the rent is reasonable and includes dinner each day. We highly recommend Pleasant View Retirement community for independent living!

I wasn't there that long, only about 8 weeks, the staff was more than friendly and very helpful. The resident that I met were very nice, polite ,and friendly. Most residents participate in what the community has to offer, exercise class, card games, movies and going out to different restaurants etc. I would recommend it if you are especially alone.

A Place for Mom has scored Pleasant View Retirement 9.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score.
