Pleasant View is a city in Weber County, Utah.
Pleasant View became a popular tourist stop because of the natural hot springs located in its north western corner that lies adjacent to Box Elder County. The Utah Hot Springs Resort was created at the site in the 1880s. During its peak, the facility offered visitors bathing and swimming pools, a hotel with 40 rooms, a dance hall and a saloon where a mug of beer could be bought for five cents. The facility no longer exists.
Pleasant View has many upscale, family oriented communities – although the housing prices are usually less than those in Salt Lake City. As of 2000, the share of housing units in Pleasant View that were owner-occupied was 97%. The city housing had been constructed more recently than most cities of its size. As a whole, property taxes tend toward the pricey side in Pleasant View, but this often equates to better schools and government services.
