Eskaton Properties Inc

I like all the things above. It's clean, it's bright and happy, it has got great food, it has got great service. The apartments are nice and everyone was extremely friendly and helpful as far as the move in and everything. It's been a really positive experience all the way around.

What I like about it when you go there, the people that live there are smiling so you know they're happy and cared for. They have resident meetings for them to decide what they like and don't like and then the place makes it happen and I think that's fantastic. The residents run the library and the activities. Any ideas they have the place works with them. My father thinks it's tremendous - like a carinval cruise on land! It's not a feeling like it's the end. It's retirement community so it doesn't feel like a hospital. They have a golf course and spa. It's very nice for activities. It has cement block walls in between each apartment so the noise factor of someone who is hard of hearing and trying to watch tv or something is accommodated for. The balconies are huge so you can actually enjoy them.

This place has been wonderful to my parents. EVERYONE including the director have been extremely helpful & friendly. All the employees treat the residents there as family. This was a extremely difficult move & they made it as comfortable as it can be. The residents there are very friendly as well and many have been there for many years. The rooms are large & the deluxe one bedroom is the largest living area we found. I visit frequently & have gotten to know the staff as well as residents. They have many activities & very nice grounds. I really can't say enough about Eskaton Monroe Lodge, they have been a Godsend.

Loved this place. Only studios available. One bedroom is the ideal, but waiting list of at least a year.

Loved this facility; however; price does have to be considered and the price here was too steep.

Great location, beautiful facility.

We loved this facility. It is very comparable to Aegis. I thought it was a great fit for my parents. Such an open, spacious and happy environment. It has lots of potential for my parents. I like the pricing structure of the Parkview as it was easy to understand. Right now it is on the top of my list.

Loved everything. I need to take my parents there for a lunch so they can view the homes and try the cuisine and see if they like it.

The best thing about Eskaton Monroe Lodge is the friendliness of the people that work there. My dad talks about this all the time and we experience their warmth when we go and visit him. The dining rooms are beautifully decorated and the wait staff is extremely friendly. Rooms are quiet and being in a tall building gives you a feeling of connectedness to the out side world as you look out the many windows.

My mom's overall experience, since moving in, has been going well. I believe it is a good community for her. It's a pretty good place. They are providing good meals with activities to stay busy. It is also a clean place with very good staff.

My dad lived in the Memory Care facility and my mom currently lives in Independent Living in the Cottages. The whole property is spotless! The staff are so nice and attentive. The food is great! Lots of activities for all levels. The value is really good. Nice spacious living, restaurant-style meals, beautiful surroundings. I would recommend this facility to anyone who wants to live in the El Dorado County area!

My mother was in the independent living there, Silver Oaks. There were times that she complained about the food but they had a menu that they were catering to a lot more people and it was workable. She was there for 10 years. It's a nice place. We liked that the facility itself is lovely, her personal apartment was fantastic, the staff is great. They were very accommodating. As my mother started to decline they really tried to facilitate her needs. They really worked well with me which I appreciated.

They were really good. It was very clean. I'm not sure what the final bill came out too becuase my father is the one paying. From what I remember, we felt that the cost was okay but on the high end of okay. My understanding is that they are happy with the level of care for my mom. Any issues that we've had have been more of a misunderstanding on my dad's part of what they are supposed to provide. My mom is in the assisted living and the caregivers show up every coupde of hours which is what they're supposed to do but my dad thought they were coming around too much. The food was okay - it was better than the nursing home food she had. Overall I would recommend it. They were always respectful and treated my mother very well.

The things I like most: -the staff are friendly and warm with my dad -the staff are well-trained in redirecting my dad who has memory issues -the staff have contacted me quickly when there was an issue that I needed to know about. - Yes, I would recommend Reutlinger to other families

Our family had an in person tur with Eskaton Gold River and out of all three communities we toured, we liked this community the most. Unfortunately, it was just too far from my home

It has been a difficult time during COVID, but overall we have had a positive experience. The community itself seems to be fairly clean. It is not cheap but it seems worth wile. The activities are very limited due to COVID.

It is a nice community. Everyone is kind, friendly, and helpful. The only thing I didn't like was when they had power outages they didn't notify family and as a result my father had a fall and was alone in the dark,. The food was good. The services were good there. It's a clean and nice place.

Very convenient and close to our house. Room was like a large dorm room but had a nice patio. Residence say they like the food. Also, [name removed] can bring their own furniture, (has to bring their own as it is not furnished.) Laundry every week but room clean every 2 weeks. Smaller and older facility, Memory care was depressing. One of the least expensive but prices were more than advertised by $700. Yikes!

Would be great but a little pricey.

Had difficulty finding parking. When we arrived, they said they were not expecting us and [Removed] was not available so her assistant gave us the tour. Property has only 6 two BR units, none available, a long waiting list for them with little turnover. Saw 1 BR unit, the kitchenette was just inside front door of unit, was the tiniest we have seen anywhere, is called a "tea kitchen" and basically fridge was a tiny minibar type like you'd find in a hotel. Living room was small, but the closet in it had been nicely converted to an office space with desk and shelves. Bedroom was ok size for mom's bed and furniture. Bathroom was nice, liked there were two different accesses to it. Lots of closet space. Patio units $300 extra/mo. Dining area seemed ok, tables very separated which made it feel sort of lonely. Food was very good, all day a la carte menu, specials avail first two hours of meal times. Receptionist seemed stressed with juggling tasks when we arrived, had two other people she had to respond to plus a phone call but was friendly to us. No individual mailboxes seen. Since it is also assisted living facility also, it was noticeable the range of differences in the residents. One resident was just sitting in hallway in his wheelchair, and one lady in the room with the fireplace was asleep with her head hanging all the way backward. Saw same lady later at lunch at a table with other residents but was still asleep with her head all the way back. Saw other residents participating in activities. Mom liked raised bed gardening area. Overall, fairly nice place but miniature kitchen and small living room was a deal breaker. Since there is so much demand for two bedroom units, Eskaton should build properties with more of them and also include decent kitchens in all their independent living units.
