Thank you for visiting Eskaton Monroe Lodge. We are happy to read you enjoyed the gardens. We are sorry you were only able to view the commons areas on the ground floor. You are invited back to tour the residential apartments any time. During a tour you can expect to meet an Eskaton ambassador, a resident who will show you their apartment and answer question on what life is like at the Lodge. It also gives you a friendly face to call upon when you join us at our community. Please call Tristin or Scott at 916-441-1015 to schedule the tour.

If Eskaton Monroe Lodge accepts dogs or cats, what indoor/outdoor areas can they enjoy?
Pets are part of the family, so our Eskaton community loves for you to bring your furry family member to live at the Lodge.

Pets are not allowed in spaces where food is present, and not allowed on common area furniture for those who may be allergic.
