Mom has been here just over 2 years now and we couldn't be happier with the care she gets. All of her needs are met with caring and friendly staff. Food is great too. While mom has dementia and cannot always participate with activities, there are certainly a nice variety daily and weekly. Musical guests are wonderful since mom loves music and dancing.

We chose Eskaton Lodge for my dad 5 years ago. It wasn't an easy process acknowledging that we needed to find a place for dad that wasn't home. We looked at a lot of facilities and knew almost the minute that we walked in that It "felt right". Eskaton Lodge is homey and the staff was immediately welcoming. They supported us with every step. The private rooms are spacious and we were able to decorate his room so it looked liked home. It isn't a large facility and we really liked the personal, family feel. They had a lot of activities that kept him engaged as well as personal attention that ,we honestly feel, slowed the progression of his dementia. We were able to come and have meals with my dad in the dining room (the food is really good!) and join my dad for fun holiday celebrations. The staff became a second family to us. Unfortunately, my dad passed away last October. We never regretted our decision having him there. In fact, when we needed to find a place for my mom, we chose Eskaton Lodge again. My mom has only been there a short time but is already enjoying the meals, social activities and outings. The staff is so accommodating and is making every effort in making her feel at home too. The peace-of-mind in having her there is priceless.

Eskaton Lodge Cameron Park was well maintained and well managed. The residents seemed happy. I was impressed with the amount of light because of the huge windows in the rooms.

My dad and mom who are 95 and 94 years old reside at Eskaton Lodge Cameron Park. I am so grateful that they are in this incredible facility. This place does an amazing job of hiring very qualified people for each and every position. Qualified in the sense that they not only do their assigned duties extremely well, but also qualified in the sense that they all have caring hearts for the elderly. They love them all the time and in so many ways. Not just taking care of the daily issue of the residents, but zeroing in on the special needs of each person and knowing each resident and their family members by name.
The quality of the daily events keeps the residents entertained, energized, the dining is always nutritional and delicious, and the health care is superb with constant observations of each resident. The special events are well organized and very well done, for instance at Easter, they not only had a high quality buffet but also had live baby chicks and rabbits as well as live jazz music ensemble which entertained the residents as well as their guest. They seem to always do a little extra.
The feel of ELCP is definitely like home with snacks and coffee always available for anyone. I so appreciate that they inform me immediately when they notice a health care issue or see a shift in my parents actions or demeanor. I am grateful that my parents are residing in such a remarkable facility.

I can't imagine a better facility, from day one the care and attention to detail have been top notch. My Mom moved to Eskaton just a few weeks after my Dad passed so needless to say it was a rough time but the staff and the other residents were so supportive and authentically caring that it was a very smooth transition. The staff at Eskaton is truly amazing; it's not an easy task finding and keeping such devoted care givers and I hope they know how much they're appreciated.

I cannot say enough about the quality of care my mother has received at Eskaton. She has not only resided there, she has thrived due to the wonderful care and attention she has received. The nursing team, the dietitian, and the social aspects have made her last year's very happy and peaceful. Thank you all.

My mother is currently a resident. She absolutely loves it! She told me that the residents and staff are her "family". I, as a daughter, am extremely happy with the care she receives. She is always well-cared for and I never have to worry, which is a relief. I can't say enough about how much my mom and I love the Lodge.

Everybody has a choice at Eskaton. We can have anything we want off the menu, or the alternative menu like turkey breast. It's comfort food. They get the towels for you and make the beds for you. It's reassuring. I'm the only cat lady here.

It's comfortable. I get to do more of what I like to do. I like their meals. My favorite is breakfast, scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon, toast and coffee.

I have lived at Eskaton Lodge Cameron Park for only 3 months but I can tell you the staff is very good and the food is very good too. I love their desserts.

I visited Eskaton Lodge. I really loved that place. It was wonderful. The people were great. The rooms were very spacious and had built-in cabinets, a refrigerator, a big flat-screen TV included, and a private bathroom. It would be wonderful for my mom if she could go there. However, they do not have any rooms available with a flat entry into the shower. There were activities happening every day.

The room was OK, but I just didn’t think Eskaton Lodge was the right fit for my dad, so we didn’t pick that place. We looked at it, walked around, went upstairs, and looked at the dining room. I didn’t like it. I didn’t think it was very clean.

Mom is 95, sharp as a tack but mobility challenged. That staff is helpful and kind. I feel they always have her best interest in mind when interacting with her.

Eskaton Lodge Cameron Park was just one facility for residents. It was a lot smaller so it meant it had less residents. So, you would have more attention, possibly because there were less people to take care off. Their community room was small, but they were loads of people in that room. I knew that the activity director was doing something in that area on the day that we visited, and a lot of people were involved. So, that was kind of good. The rooms were smaller there, but they were also very nice. They had outings. They also took their people to their doctor's appointments.

My mom uses Eskaton for respite care when my husband and I travel. She looks forward to her stays at the lodge and, if necessary, would enjoy living there.

I have nothing but high praise for the staff at Eskaton Lodge Cameron Park. I moved my mother to Eskaton Lodge after a very negative experience in a home care situation. Everyone at Eskaton was so kind to my mom, and she really felt happy and cared for there. The entire staff treated her as a family member! They were always patient, accommodating, and extremely respectful to mom. The caregivers and the nursing staff took initiative to solve any large or small issues that came up (like mom not wanting to eat) and never gave up trying to find solutions. The kitchen staff went out of their way to prepare foods that mom requested. I was also impressed with the low staff turnover. Employees seemed to truly like each other and like working at Eskaton. My family and I will be forever grateful that we found this gem of a place so close to where we live in the foothills near our home. Thank you Eskaton Lodge for making the last years of mom's life ones that were so filled with love and care!

My father has been at Eskaton Lodge for 3 years. His care has been excellent and he loves the staff. As he says, "They have the patience of saints". He has thanked me and my wife many times for finding the place. We are totally happy with his care!

My mother lived at the Eskaton Lodge for many years. There were some challenging times for her as she had dementia. She was well cared for and had a good home there. The staff was always considerate and loving towards her. They administered her medications and saw to her needs with great skill. The meals were also well planned and delicious. I would highly recommend this community to anyone who is looking for assisted living.

The quality of meals in Eskaton Lodge is good. The care quality they provide is above average. Healthcare workers maintain a very friendly rapport with the residents. The workers are knowledgeable and observant too.

The quality of care my aunt and uncle have received from Eskaton over the past two years is excellent. I find the community clean and well - maintained. The staff and administration are always kind and professional. I love how I can easily receive information regarding the status of my aunt and uncle whether it is in person during a visit or over the phone. They really care for their residents and treat them as if they were family.

Eskaton Lodge is fantastic. They have many activities, and the whole staff including caregivers, nurses, and the management, is all great. It makes my husband feel like he is needed somewhere. They call him by his first name. He likes it over there. He’s only been there almost 3 weeks, but he’s already gone to Wal-Mart. He went to a barbecue out in Cameron Park Lake, and they have entertainment come in all the time. What they do is they put a great big calendar on the wall. They say each and every day what they’re having, if there’s going to be a rock and roll group or somebody from the church coming in. That’s great for all those who can’t see too well.
They have a maintenance man who is so wonderful. He does everything. We really like him. We had to have some batteries for a flashlight, and he said not to ever worry about buying batteries. He went and got me a black marker so I can mark the sheets.
My husband is a hard one to please, especially when it comes to food, and he likes what he’s getting so far. It’s very clean. They gave him a room that just had new carpeting put in, a new refrigerator, and a new 40-inch TV, plus the fact that he’s not afraid to go out the door to go somewhere because he knows the whole area. We lived in Cameron Park for 12 years, so he’s familiar with the stores, restaurants, and everything around it, and that helps him. Our neighbors still live there and they’re visiting him, so he has more company that way.
