"It" is one of those impersonal nouns, but yes, it seems to modify "visiting..." (the whole phrase).
The phrase "last weekend" is adverbial, telling when the action happened.

1.Thank you for visiting our nursing home. It was great fun last weekend.
------------------------
In Sentence 1, what does 'It" refer to?
2. Look at the elderly person.
3. Look at the elderly people.
---------------
Are both OK? Is Sentence 2 grammatical? Can we use the singular noun after 'elderly'?

1. The visit.
Elderly can be used to modify both.
