In the heart of Yakima, where community spirit runs deep and holiday lights glow a little brighter, there’s a senior living community that feels more like family than a facility. Peach Tree Retirement Center has long been a hidden gem for Yakima seniors — and every year, during our beloved Holiday Bazaar, the secret gets out.
The moment guests step into our festively decorated halls, they’re met with the aroma of cinnamon-spiced cider, the sound of cheerful carols, and warm greetings from residents who truly love where they live. Unlike larger, impersonal retirement communities, Peach Tree thrives on connection. We’re a place where names are remembered, stories are shared, and aging is celebrated with dignity and joy.
Take Mr. Franklin, for instance. A former music teacher with a twinkle in his eye, he spends every Tuesday leading a sing-along in the lounge — and every December helping decorate the lobby tree with ornaments he’s collected since the ’70s. Or Miss Lila, our unofficial “Hallway Mayor,” who bakes extra cookies for new residents and never misses a craft night. This is senior living with soul.
Whether you’re exploring options for 55+ apartments in Yakima or looking into independent living alternatives that offer both comfort and community, Peach Tree sets a high bar. We blend care with independence, and support with spontaneity. And nowhere is that more evident than during our annual Holiday Bazaar & Food Drive.
