PINE RUN VILLAGE
Pine Run is the name of the stream that flows through Central Bucks, creating the pleasant, park-like valley that cradles Pine Run Village. Nearby is Pine Run's own serene lake, surrounded by idyllic fields, woodlands and meadows.
Spacious garden apartments are set in clusters around each tranquil courtyard, landscaped to enhance its presence just outside your private entrance. Choose from apartments large enough to accommodate all your favorite furnishings and even your beloved animal companion.
What could be more convenient than to access, just steps from your front door, a country store, lounge, library, media room, beauty salon and café? The Community Center, the hub of group activities at Pine Run, is a favored gathering spot. And then there's Le Bon Appetit, where top chefs create the succulent, imaginative and healthful dishes served up for an exceptional restaurant-style dining experience right here at Pine Run.
The craft barn and woodworking shop provide an opportunity to explore a variety of artistic and creative interests on your own or with more direction and instruction. Pine Run Villagers direct and operate more than 50 lively committees that serve the diverse interests of residents. They include entertainment, exercise, sports, fundraising, travel, crafts, volunteer work and cultural events.
Or, ride Pine Run's regularly scheduled transport service into nearby Doylestown--historic county seat and prime destination for interesting, vibrant people of any age--and to other places that pique your interest.
Fitness
The Mission of the Fit for LIFE! program is to enhance the physical wellbeing and improve the quality of life for the Pine Run Community Villagers through group and individual exercise sessions. LIFE stands for: Longevity, Independence, Function, and Empowerment.

A detailed evaluation and consultation session with our fitness director will provide the necessary guidance and support as you begin your wellness journey.
PINE RUN LAKEVIEW
If you wish to maintain your independence but need some help with your daily needs, consider Pine Run Lakeview. Here, assisted living offers a secure, comfortable lifestyle in a responsive, tranquil environment for individuals and couples needing to relinquish more of their day-to-day cares. You'll be helped with such tasks as bathing, dressing and managing your medications, while housekeeping, laundry and daily meal preparations are ably handled by Lakeview's staff. With on-site nursing round the clock, health services and local transportation, you are always close to both emergency and routine health care.
Pine Run Lakeview offers accommodations in private suites and companion suites, each with a full bath, as well more supportive services and enhanced programming at The Arbor at Pine Run Lakeview for those with memory impairment.
The specially designed building and enchanting country surroundings at Lakeview provide many of the advantages of residing in your own apartment. Although your private suite comes furnished, you may decorate it with your favorite furniture and dearest personal items or refurnish it with your own pieces.
The fullness of your life at Lakeview unfolds, as well, in the beautifully appointed lounges, activity rooms, gracious front porch and serene courtyard, where you and your new friends can relax and socialize. Supported by a full compliment of services, residents find themselves freer than ever to enjoy this time of their lives.
This beautiful, assisted living residence is three and a half miles from Pine Run Community's rural campus. Because Lakeview is within view of downtown Doylestown, it's close to the borough's fine libraries, museums, restaurants, shops and the County Theater...and across the street from the recently expanded Central Bucks Family YMCA.
