The Heart of River Country!

Reaching Virginia's Northern Neck

and Middle Peninsula

logoWelcome to Pleasant Living, the magazine that celebrates the heart and culture of Virginia’s River Country.

Since 1989, we’ve published the unique voice of Virginia’s Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula—life inland and along the Rappahannock, James, York, and Potomac rivers. Folksy, intelligent, nostalgic and contemporary, simple and elegant, PL presents a fresh, uncomplicated point of view that captures the essence of this very special place. No other publication offers the singular perspective that we do. For over two decades (we celebrate our 21st anniversary this summer!), PL has become a name spoken around dinner tables throughout the region.

We cover a diversity of topics—about people making a difference, about food and health, nature, gardening, history. We publish book and art reviews, poetry, commentary, essays and memorable images by regional photographers. We write about ideas and about what makes life here unlike any other place.

There are many publications out there singing the praises of the new ‘high life’ on the Bay, the ultra-expensive yachts and houses. Pleasant Living speaks of something else—an experience that can’t be bought.—PL reader

If you want to know what it’s like to live in the villages, hamlets and towns many call God’s Country—if you want to know the character of the people who make this region so distinct, and if you love good writing, read us and you’ll see. Our artful style and genuine voice bring readers back year after year.

We’d love to hear from you. Write and let us know what you think—about the magazine, about living in the River Country, about life! Here’s to pleasant living!
