Holiday Aspen View sits on nearly five acres of Montana land, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Billings Rims and close to the Yellowstone River, and the place itself feels peaceful and open, with walking paths, gardens, fishponds, fountains, waterfalls, and lots of green landscaping, while the three-story building gives views from balconies and private patios, so residents can watch the scenery, enjoy some fresh air, or stroll through flower beds. The community offers several kinds of senior living-independent living for active adults 55 and over who want a hassle-free lifestyle, assisted living for those who need help with daily tasks, memory care for seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's, and skilled nursing for more serious care along with a full continuing care retirement community so someone can change their level of help without moving away. Apartments come in studios, one- and two-bedroom sizes, and even cottages, with options like kitchenettes, private bathrooms, walk-in showers or tubs, cable TV, and safety features such as emergency call systems, safety rails, and self-controlled heat and air, plus some units have private patios or overlook green areas.
Everyone gets three chef-prepared meals every day in the communal dining room, and there's always coffee or tea to sip on while chatting or looking out the large windows. You'll find weekly housekeeping and linen service, maintenance help, laundry rooms, covered and underground parking, as well as pet-friendly rules so folks can keep a companion animal with them. The building stays safe with sprinkler systems, smoke alarms, locked mailboxes, and community managers who live on-site so help's always nearby. There's scheduled transportation for errands or doctor's appointments, and utilities like water, sewer, gas, and electricity all come included, so budgeting's simpler and residents don't need to worry about bills stacking up.
Social spaces fill the building with easy gathering spots, such as the naturally lit atrium lobby, a cozy TV lounge with a big television, game and activity rooms for puzzles or cards, and a billiards table for anyone who likes pool. There's a chapel, a library with comfortable seating and big windows, a barber and beauty salon, a business center, and a theater, while on nicer days you'll see residents out on the paved walkways with their pets, maybe waving to friends by the gazebo or near one of the bubbling fountains. Safety and accessibility matter, so the whole place is wheelchair-friendly, and elevators connect all floors, with parking and entryways that are easy to navigate.
The community keeps a full calendar of activities and events, so whether someone likes fitness classes, gardening in the outdoor beds, group outings for shopping, games, or just a quiet afternoon with a book, there's always something to do. For those needing extra care, staff offer help with daily living or special needs in the memory care and skilled nursing areas, plus home care agencies are welcome to provide services, letting residents age in place even if their needs change. The facility's close to Billings Logan International Airport, local shopping, and hospitals like St. Vincent Healthcare, so family visits and medical appointments are convenient.
Holiday Aspen View is part of Holiday Retirement, run since 1971, but it's now managed by Atria Senior Living. Residents find a mix of countryside charm, safe housing, and flexible care that aims to give seniors both comfort and independence, with simple, friendly assistance and well-kept grounds that offer plenty of chances to enjoy Montana's open skies.
