About Lakeview Retirement Community
Overlooking the calm waters of Lake Murray, Lakeview provides a distinctive, all-inclusive independent living experience. Located in Irmo, conveniently situated between Lexington and Columbia, our community is surrounded by rich historical sites, excellent dining options, and a stunning 650-mile shoreline. A key feature of Lakeview is our straightforward pricing model. All services and amenities are included in one monthly rent payment, with no large buy-in fee required. This approach allows residents to fully enjoy their retirement with financial peace of mind.
Our community is thoughtfully designed to support residents as their needs change, allowing them to age in place comfortably and confidently. Should a resident ever require additional support, they have the flexibility to contract with trusted third-party in-home healthcare providers. This service can be delivered directly within their own residence, ensuring continuity and comfort. It is another way we help residents maintain their cherished lifestyle without compromise, offering a secure and supportive environment for the years ahead.

A seamless, welcoming experience from start to finish! Our experience with Lakeview Retirement Community has been outstanding from the very first visit. From the moment we toured the available units, it was clear that this community values professionalism, warmth, and true care for its residents. Every step of the process”exploring options, asking questions, signing the lease, orientation, and finally settling in”could not have gone more smoothly. A special thank‘you goes to Sharlett, who was our primary contact throughout. She was consistently professional, caring, and incredibly informative. Her guidance made every decision feel easy and well‘supported. We always felt she had our best interests at heart. We also want to recognize Sharon, who went above and beyond to ensure the move‘in process was effortless. Her attention to detail and genuine kindness made what could have been a stressful transition feel comfortable and even enjoyable. Now that we’re settled in, we couldn’t be happier. The entire team, from management to staff, has been exemplary, the community is welcoming, and the entire experience has exceeded our expectations.

Review for Lakeview Retirement Community “ Columbia I want to give a huge thank-you to Sharon Aragon, the concierge at Lakeview. She went above and beyond this past weekend when I had an issue with my mother’s room that normally would have had to wait until Monday. Instead of telling me it had to wait, Sharon stepped in immediately, made sure everything was taken care of, and treated the situation with genuine care and urgency. Her professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help truly made a difference for my mother and for our family. Lakeview is lucky to have someone like Sharon representing their community. Highly appreciated and highly recommended.

Lakeview Retirement Community has been such a blessing to our family. From the very first visit, we could feel that this was more than just a retirement community”it was truly a home. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and filled with joy. The staff treats the residents with so much love and respect, as if they were caring for their own family. They are patient, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure every need is met. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our loved one is surrounded by people who genuinely care. What makes Lakeview so special is the sense of community. The residents aren’t just neighbors”they become friends. There are so many opportunities to stay engaged, whether it’s sharing a meal together, joining in on activities, or simply enjoying the beautiful lake views. It’s a place where laughter and conversation flow easily, and no one ever feels alone. The food is wonderful, the activities are enriching, and the environment is both safe and uplifting. But most importantly, Lakeview has given our loved one a renewed sense of purpose and joy in this season of life. If you’re looking for a place where your family member will be cherished, respected, and truly at home, I cannot recommend Lakeview Retirement Community enough. It’s not just a community”it’s a family.

Love love love this place! My 86 year mom has been here over 1 now and is doing great! She has made more friends and had more fun than her whole 10 years plus in SC. The staff is great and there is always something going on. She barely has time to talk to when I call to check on her. I can't recommend this place more. Its worth the price.

Lakeview Retirement Community is truly a Resort Lifestyle Community. A home where one can enjoy all the great amenities from Freedom Dining to movie nights in the grand theatre with a Life Enrichment Calander that always keeps everyone active. With 24-hour Concierges and an emergency pendant provided to each resident, safety is a piece of mind.

Warm & friendly community. The management couple is very caring and professional (they live at the community also). Lots of variety with the food choices and they have a great social calendar. Would recommend anyone seeking retirement community options to go in and take a look.
