A Great Life Is Waiting for You

Life is great at Prairie Vista Village. You can live the kind of life you want to live: socializing, shopping, traveling, attending the theatre, and much more. Prairie Vista Village offers a diverse array of lifestyle options:

Independent Living Apartments: residences for those seeking the freedom of independent living without the burdens of home ownership.

Rehabilitation & Health Care: for residents who can benefit from health care during a recovery or a long-term stay. Designed with active seniors in mind, Prairie Vista Village provides a secure environment where you can enjoy the independence and privacy of your own apartment, free of the day-to-day burdens of home ownership. As one of our residents, you have the freedom to pursue an active social life and entertain family and friends in a safe, comfortable atmosphere. Everything you need is right here in Prairie Vista Village.

🦃 Happy Thanksgiving from Prairie Vista Village—where the turkey isn’t the only one getting stuffed today! 😄

As we dig into the mashed potatoes and pie, we’re reminded of a few things we’re extra thankful for this year:
✨ Zero dishes to wash (we’ll leave that to the professionals!)
✨ Maintenance-free living—because nobody wants to fix a furnace before dessert
✨ Friends who feel like family… without anyone arguing over who forgot the cranberry sauce
✨ A warm, cozy community that keeps the fun flowing—even when winter tries its best

If you’ve ever thought, “There has to be an easier way to live,” you’re right—and Independent Living is it.
Why shovel snow, cook every meal, and fight with holiday lights when you could be enjoying activities, great company, and a home that basically takes care of itself?

This Thanksgiving, treat yourself to a lifestyle that’s easier, happier, and a whole lot more fun.
Move in, settle in, and let us handle the hard stuff while you focus on the pie. 🥧😄

🚨Public Service Announcement 🚨
Did you know every area of our community currently has a wait list?
Current people on the independent living wait list frequently say they're not ready to move and stay on the list. Some as long as 13 years!
PVV has been open for 11 years.
Current residents get first priority when openings arise, spots fill even faster than you may think.

If you’ve been considering Independent Living “someday,” here’s the truth:
Waiting until the need is urgent often means waiting too long and superseding independent living.

Moving earlier gives you:
✨ First choice of floor plans
✨ Priority for future care needs
✨ A smoother, stress-free transition
✨ Time to build friendships and enjoy the lifestyle you want—not just the one you need

With demand higher than ever, now is the time to get your name on the list or better yet, reserve an immediately available independent living apartment and secure your future. Don’t risk missing the community you’ve been hoping for.

📞 Call Robin today to learn how to reserve your immediately available independent living apartment—before it’s gone. 515-967-8700.

As we head into the holiday season, many celebrations naturally revolve around food. Food brings people together and adds joy to our traditions. Sharing a meal with loved ones is meant to feel special, not stressful, and there’s no reason to feel guilty about enjoying it. One day of celebration won’t undo the healthy habits you practice throughout the year.

So go ahead and savor that slice of pie or an extra scoop of mashed potatoes and gravy. Food nourishes not only your body, but also your soul!
