I chose Eskaton Village Grass Valley for my wife. I'd heard about it. I went to tour it, and it was good. The staff are quite good, caring, and they take good care of the people. The food is a standard American diet, and she's a vegetarian, so that does not work easily with them. They do have a salon. There is a physical fitness area, but there's nobody to take her over there.

I toured Eskaton Village Grass Valley. I liked the little houses that you can buy into, and it was a very nice community. And I liked the fact that it was so near the junior college, so you could take classes and just walk to them. The houses were very nice. Like any place like that, they're not particularly appealing architecturally or anything, but they were very clean. I liked the fact that anything that you need, like the yard, the painting, and so forth, is all taken care of. It was very appealing. They have washers and dryers. One thing I thought was impressive about it was that they have like these things on stands, where if you wear a thing around your neck, if you fall, it somehow can tell, and it tells the front desk that something's happened. The person who took me around was a realtor, but I've talked to the staff and they're very, very friendly. I really liked the person that I talked to. I talked to them about my daughter's father-in-law living there, and she was very helpful. I looked at the swimming pool, which was really nice. The whole pool area was exceptional. It's like being in the country club almost. They have tables and chairs that you can sit in and you can bring food and drink and things like that. It's really quite first class, but it's also expensive.

I went to Eskaton Village Grass Valley. We had an appointment with someone and met with her and then she showed us around a little bit. The experience was good. The rooms were spacious. We just met one person, and she was very nice and professional. There was a nice, secluded area outside that had two seats, and it was very nice and peaceful there. They have transportation for the people living there, and they take the people that are living there to various events. It's a top-rated place.

My mother has been living at Eskaton Village Grass Valley for four years. It is clean and very attractive. My mother is living in a very, very nice place. There's a nice dining room. When you come in, there's coffee and water available. I have no complaints whatsoever about the physical appearance of the place. There's a very cheery atmosphere. When you go there, everybody's friendly and warm. You say hello to people in the hall, and they say hello back to you when you're visiting. It's a very warm atmosphere. The staff members are very responsive. When we call to find out anything, they remember my mom's name. They always get us the right person. I ate there once. My mother is a gourmet cook; so in her opinion, the food is not gourmet. It's fine; but if it was a restaurant, I wouldn't go there. I seem to remember my mom telling us is that they have various activities and an exercise class that she goes to. There is like a place where you can go read and talk with your friends. She herself runs a book group. They let her have the book group. People come to her room, and they read the books. She is fine with all the activities. Her room is small, but adequate. She has a view, which is nice. It's an expensive place, but my mom's lucky that she's able to afford it. She's getting her money's worth. I don't feel like she's in a corporate place where she's just being handled. The people there are caring, and they know my mother by name. I feel like she's in a family.

Eskaton Village Grass Valley assisted living was absolutely stellar in every way. It's got every amenity possible. They have an indoor swimming pool, excursions, an alpine view in their dining room, amazing food, all kinds of classes and services, yoga, painting, sculpture, cooking and gardening, all kinds of stuff to keep people engaged and involved in life. You can have a small animal if you want. My parents enjoyed the fact that they'd still be able to have beer and wine with their meals. Little details like that end up mattering.

Eskaton Village Grass Valley was clean and professionally run. The staff was courteous, seemed very knowledgeable, and helpful. All in all, I was impressed with the facility and the personnel. My mom says the food is good. They have field trips, and they have quite a variety of activities. Theyre awful pricey though.

Eskaton Village Grass Valley was nice. However, it's really large, and the location wasn't convenient. The staff was fine, and we saw the apartments, but it was far from stores and doctors. They showed us the library and where they provide exercise and arts and crafts.

My five stars are for the sales office, the clear communication and extra-mile helpfulness of Lynette and Yvonne. I researched this facility for my in-laws, impressed by Eskaton's many 5-star reviews. Sales teams can be aggressive giving you the upsell, but they were fast, thorough, and up-front in answering my many questions, gave a clear sense of the range of their options, and ultimately referred me to another nearby quality facility that might be a better fit. If you are at all curious about the place, I strongly recommend giving them a call.

I recently moved my 89-year old mother into an assisted living apartment in the Lodge at Eskaton Grass Valley. From our first interaction, the staff have been great to work with; professional, caring, and thorough. The entire operation is first class and I think my mother is in a great situation with real caregivers.

The care and service here is beyond 5 stars. Under both the best and worst circumstances our parents have been treated with the utmost respect and compassion. We are confident that our mom will be able to live an exciting and independent life here for many years. (Lynette is amazing!)

I was very impressed with Eskaton, and we don’t live far from it. It just seemed they had more available all around, but I guess it depends on the condition of the person who’s there and if they have any memory of what’s going on. Eskaton would be great for people who want to remain active because they have a swimming pool, and there seems to be quite a few buses going everywhere into town. And they are right next to a high school which has activities, plays and music, and a theater. If it was me going into one of those places, I would probably take Eskaton. I didn’t eat a meal there, but it seemed like the menu was interesting, and they were really working on having good food.

Eskaton Village Grass Valley had a nice entrance. The residents seemed to be nowhere in sight and off doing something. The rooms were OK. The dining area had a really nice view of the grounds. They had a movie room, library, and salon.

My husband and I came to the "Yes I Can!" seminar at Eskaton Village Grass Valley. After the seminar, we asked for a tour of the community. Yvonne showed us around and answered all of our questions. She is so cheerful and efficient; truly she is outstanding! I own a real estate business and I would love to recruit her to work for me. My husband and I will return to Eskaton Village Grass Valley!

Thank God we came to Eskaton Lodge in Grass Valley! It was Christmas. My husband was having trouble walking and I couldn’t handle alone. We signed up for a 3-month “respite” and settled into a lovely, spotless apartment where we could be together. I was still my husband’s caretaker but I had help when I needed it. Eskaton nurses connected with our doctor. They helped us call in PT & OT. We had wonderful meals, a comfortable bed, and were surrounded by cheerful, loving caregivers, and friendly residents. In spite of all the help, my husband continued to decline, but at least we were still together. We extended our stay past the 3 month respite period. When it was time the nurse called in hospice to make my husband comfortable, our family members arrived to say “good bye”, I was able to order lunch delivered to our room - for 12! And, Eskaton set tables together in the dining room so we could eat together. Thank you Eskaton for making a difficult time in our lives as smooth as possible.

I’ve moved my mom into Eskaton Village Grass Valley and am very happy with it. They have a medical staff that will administer her medications. She has her own apartment, so she can be left alone as much as she wants and still feels independent. She only calls when she needs assistance. Right now, she has been wanting to stay in her room and watch TV, so that’s better than trying to force her into a community situation where she is going to be depressed. I wish she would socialize, but the action is there, so when she wants to socialize at least it’s there. I like that she has her independence still and has her own space, apartment, and bathroom. I also like that they bring her meals to her room when she is not making it to the dining room. She has a little kitchenette, so if she wants something special, I could fix her something right there without bothering the kitchen. I think they’re great. It is a very well-organized business. The staff is very caring and impressive. This place really feels like it is there for its residents. It feels very homey and very comfortable.

Eskaton Village was very nice, large, and clean. The rooms were much too large for my friend, as she doesn’t get around too well. It was newer and more modern, but it didn’t have a homey feeling. I rate it as a 5, but it just wasn't a good fit for my friend.

Eskaton Village was actually the one that was most impressive to me for my mom. My mom really liked this facility. This was the one that she thought was the best, but it was a lot more expensive. They had a lot more to offer. Their rooms were similar to the other facility. The one difference was that the kitchens at Eskaton Village were full kitchens, and that was a nice feature. The staff was great both in the tours and follow-up phone calls. They're exceptional. Activities would be a 5 because they were the standard that I was looking at. They have art classes. The facility has a swimming pool, and they have aquatics program too. It was just top-of-the-mark. Also, it was in a secure location in the woods, and their food was great.

We liked Eskaton Village. If my parents both survive, they may end up here. The staff was nice and plenty of them giving lots of attention to residents. The small size of it was a plus. My parents’ friends were there, so they already have a favorable impression of it. My wife and I visited and we liked pretty much everything about it. The grounds were beautiful. They have an attentive staff and happy residents. Everything was clean and the apartments were nice. It was great and probably the best we've seen. They had organized activities and field trips.

My relative is Eskaton Village Grass Valley. The staff is very professional, very well trained, and she is very much happier there than she was in the previous place. The apartments are beautiful and spacious. She is in a small apartment, but it is very comfortable for her needs. They have all manner of apartments available because some of the people there are not there for illness, but they are just there for retirement. So, there is a wide variety of people, activities, and rooms. It is just less focused on illness and more focused on activities and preserving memory and all that. The food is excellent. The chef is wonderful. They have very fresh well prepared food. The activities are planned for different levels of ability. All of the staff people are professional in their chosen area. So, it is well planned and well designed. It is one of the nicest I have seen.
