Pendleton Manor

Nestled in the heart of Franklin, West Virginia, Pendleton Manor offers dedicated skilled nursing care to seniors in one of the Mountain State's most scenic and serene settings. Located at 68 Good Samaritan Drive, this community sits within Pendleton County — a region celebrated for its breathtaking Appalachian landscapes, including the nearby Spruce Knob, the highest peak in West Virginia, and the iconic Seneca Rocks just a short drive north along Route 33. For families who value both quality care and a peaceful, unhurried environment, Franklin provides a genuine small-town atmosphere where neighbors know each other and community truly means something. Pendleton Manor is operated as a non-profit corporation, a distinction that reflects a genuine commitment to resident well-being over profit. Non-profit governance means resources are reinvested into care quality, staffing, and the overall resident experience — not returned to shareholders. This mission-driven approach is evident in the attentive, skilled nursing services provided to residents managing complex medical needs, post-acute recovery, or long-term care requirements. Families will appreciate that Franklin offers essential services close at hand. Pendleton Community Care, the county's primary health center, is located in town and provides an important medical resource for the community. For more specialized care, Davis Medical Center in Elkins — roughly 40 miles north — serves as the region's major hospital. Augusta Health in Staunton, Virginia is also accessible for residents requiring additional specialty services. Day-to-day life in Franklin revolves around its welcoming small-town character. The Pendleton County Farmers Market brings fresh local produce to the community, and local diners along Main Street offer familiar, home-style meals that reflect the warmth of Appalachian culture. The surrounding Monongahela National Forest provides stunning scenery and, for visiting family members, exceptional outdoor recreation including hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing at Dolly Sods Wilderness. For seniors and families seeking skilled nursing care delivered with genuine compassion in a community where you are known by name — not a room number — Pendleton Manor stands as a trusted cornerstone of care in the Potomac Highlands.
