The tour at Eskaton Village Placerville was excellent. The staff was just very thorough and friendly and answered all the questions. She went above and beyond, she showed us everything. They had cottages there, and the layout of the facility was very nice. I wish my mother would have wanted to live there gradually, it's just that the cottages were just too small for her and she didn't want something that small. She likes everything about the place, she just wants something bigger, a more open space. We heard that she said the food was good, but we did not try any of them. It was a very good tour and it seemed like a very nice place. The golf carts will pick up the seniors and bring them to wherever they want to go so they don't have to walk. It was very clean, it was very organized, and it was a nice layout.

I looked at the independent living at Eskaton Village Placerville, they're like little duplexes and it was nice inside. My dad is a smoker, and they only have one little dinky gazebo and if it's raining he'd have to walk out in the rain and stand under this gazebo just to have a smoke. The staff who gave the tour was very professional and very knowledgeable. You turn off Placerville Drive, and it's a single road going up to them and they're at the end of this road. It's very beautiful surroundings. I like the trees and mountains and they get some good views there. It's nice looking and well cared for. They have a little front balcony, a little porch area, and nothing in the back that I saw.

Eskaton Village Placerville was very nice. It's newer, and they have many floor plan options, duplexes and single family homes, and some of them had nice views. The cottages were very attractive, cute, and nicely landscaped. One disadvantage is that you would have to walk or take a shuttle to the main building for your meals; although the staff member said that you can have them delivered if you choose to. The staff person who gave me the tour was very nice. She was only able to show us one unit. They have a very long waiting list there, so there weren't many places free to tour. The rooms were a little bit smaller than some of the others; but then again, we only saw one unit because some of the other units were actually larger. They got a pleasant dining room with tables not too close together, which I guess that had to do with COVID. I've been there before because I have known people that have lived and purchased freestanding houses there. They were (in my opinion) pretty wonderful. They've given a lot of thought to the storage, and they had very, very nice floor plans.

Eskaton Village Placerville was actually very nice. We liked it and my mother-in-law liked it as well. It seemed like a nice place that she would have enjoyed. The person who toured us was knowledgeable. She showed us around and seemed to be personable. They also had a courtyard.

I visited Eskaton Village Placerville to check their independent living. Instead of apartments, they had cottages which were very nice. The layout was very sufficient and had good rooms. I saw people swimming, their dining facility, and the game room. The place was really spacious, looked well-kept and clean. The staff who was showing me around was professional.

Excellent fitness classes, activities and events for the senior population. Friendly, caring staff. 24-hour security patrol. Beautiful swimming pool and spa. Beautiful community setting, but landscaping around homes and in common areas leaves much to be desired, and is not maintained as well as I would have expected.

We are so happy that our mom is a member of this community. Sophie moved to EVP nearly 4 years ago. Sophie made new friends immediately, and began participating in the many activities EVP provides. Sophie has enjoyed many day trips, lunches at local resturants, and movies and plays. It gives us great comfort and peace of mind to know that Sophie is happy and active in her 90's!!! Sincerely B&C

My daughter lives in the area and she saw Eskaton Placerville on TV. We came in and visited. I was impressed and bought one of the houses right on the same day. I have a wonderful experience here. They have cottages, people that are in the lodge and people that have their own homes. I'm one of the one who owns their own home and I’m very happy with it. The dining and the food are very well too. I'm very happy with it. Sometimes, I have lunch there and sometimes I make my own. I'm very happy with the activities as well. When I'm a resident I can still participate in any activities that they have here at the lodge. I can have a swim in the pool or do anything that they offer. Anytime I need anything or something go wrong, I call them they're right on the spot. It's everything that they said. I'm VERY happy here!

So thankful my dad is here. Grounds are lovely, and secluded enough that you don't feel like you're in a city. Still close enough to town that we can take him out to dinner and spent the day with him. Staff is wonderful and attentive. Still have to deal with day to day issues, but him being at Eskaton makes it a bit easier.

I live in the cottages, so I don't need care yet. But I love the "events" and "outings" Eskaton plans for us. Jane is excellent at her job and so is Guy! The dining room staff is always kind, helpful and polite to us!

I have many food and chemical sensitivities. I lived in the lodge several months, and a cottage a year and a half, which was indepedent living. In both situations, Eskaton worked very hard to accommodate my extreme needs.

We moved here because you don't have to pull weeds or mow the yard. It was an ideal move.

I was very happy when I was brought here the first time. I liked the way it was laid out. I walked in the cottage and it was like home. There is a big room called the den where I have my desk and cedar chest. You are not bothered with traffic noise. It's very private.

When you look them over, this is the best one around. In a cottage, you are free to do what you want to, go to activities in the village center, take walks, take the bus. If I didn't drive, I can sign up to go shopping. I love this place. I love the people.

All services here in the lodge are excellent. The staff are all amazingly caring and supportive. They have become our friends - in the way we think of them. My only area of discontent would be the preparation of the food; it was so much better a few months ago.

Dining room - they serve you. They know your name and ask what you want. If something isn't working, they will get to it as soon as they can. They have a bus that takes you to a doctor's appointment. That really helps.

We chose an independent living cottage at Eskaton in Placerville for my mom. The grounds are nicely kept, and the facility is beautiful and really nice. The gentleman, Neil, was very gracious and showed my sisters and me around, then treated us to lunch there so we got to eat some of the food. It was a nice visit. The food was great, and the dining area was nice and clean. The waitresses were cheery and acknowledged the people they knew who came in. When you put your own furniture and your own touch on the rooms, it becomes your home. Otherwise it’s pretty austere, but it’s nicely planned out.

Eskaton Village was a very nice, large, warm community with independent-living cottages. They take dogs and they even have some homes on the grounds that people can purchase that are not necessarily senior-living facilities. The grounds were spread out, really lovely, and well-cared for. The location is in a rural community in the hills. They took me around the grounds and showed me the recreational areas, swimming pool, exercise room, and library.
