Views of Ben Lomond and the Salt Lake Valley
The sights in Pleasant View live up to what the city’s name suggests — pleasant views. Valley homeowners can gaze up at Ben Lomond Peak while houses sitting on Pleasant View’s bench peer into the beauty of the Salt Lake Valley. These vistas, paired with a quiet lifestyle, are the city’s two most attractive traits. Along residential streets, elaborate arrangements of low water plantings, trees and rocks are propped within mulched front yard gardens, and spacious cement driveways lead to four-car garages and RV pads. Small parks with playgrounds and ball fields are scattered throughout town, and locals can also enjoy the natural recreation provided by their mountainous surroundings.

Pleasant View parks and trails keep locals active
Residents can stop by playgrounds such as Pleasant View Park, Shady Lane Park and Henry Barker Jr. Park, which have slides, swings and giant stairs designed to look like the side of a mountain. Tee-ball and baseball teams share Pleasant View Park’s two baseball fields, and pickleball courts provide a healthy combination of competition and fun for adults. The Pleasant View Trail offers year-round recreation — mountain biking in summer and snowy hikes in winter. The Ogden area is also known for its skiing and snowboarding. Snowbasin Ski Resort is a 25-mile drive away, and it was the site of the downhill skiing events in the 2002 Winter Olympics. Golfers can visit The Barn Golf Course, and families can find indoor entertainment at The Rush Funplex.

Housing options in Pleasant View
Homes range between the mid $500,000s and $3.5 million, but buyers will find most listings within the $650,000 to $1,000,000 range. New traditional-style residences with stone facades and wood siding are popular, especially on the bench. “Houses on the bench sit above inversion in winter,” says Doug Russell, an associate broker for Coldwell Banker Realty and a lifetime resident of the area. “The warm air above traps the cold air, keeping all the pollution in the valley.” Homes on Pleasant View’s flatlands commonly include privacy fences, but grand evergreens provide a natural source of privacy for newer builds. Buyers might find a two-bedroom manufactured home for less than $100,000 and a two-bedroom ranch-style residence from the 1960s might sell in the mid-$400,000s. New traditional houses generally start at around $750,000 and sometimes surpass the $1 million mark.

Founders Day and the Food Truck Giddy-Up
Pleasant View citizens spend several months preparing for the city’s special Founders Day celebration, which commemorates when pioneers settled in the town. Locals can test their agility in the Heritage Foundation Goose Chase or take on the 5K with their running buddy and enjoy the hot breakfast waiting at the finish line. In late summer and early fall, community members can spread out their camping blankets in Henry Barker Jr. Park for The Food Truck Giddy-Up, which usually takes place on Monday evenings.
Barbecue from The Lost Texan and cinnamon rolls from the Straw Market Café
For fresh barbecue, locals can head over to the Lost Texan, which specializes in smoked, slow-cooked meats, including pork, brisket and chicken. They can also get baked goods and comfort food at the Straw Market Café. “It used to just be a little neighborhood grocery store,” Russell says. “Now they serve food as well. It’s not fancy, but it’s delicious. They make fresh-baked cinnamon rolls, and they know that I love my cinnamon rolls without frosting, so they save me a few.” Groceries are about two miles away at Lee’s Marketplace and Smith’s Marketplace. Big-box retailers such as Walmart and Lowe’s are around 5 miles south, and the Newgate Mall in Ogden is a 10-mile drive from Pleasant View.
