Why we like it

Eskaton Village is a 500-bed assisted living community in Carmichael, operated by Eskaton, a community-based nonprofit. As Sacramento County's only Life Plan Community, it offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing across a 37-acre campus, allowing residents to transition between care levels without leaving the community they call home.

The campus features an indoor pool, putting green, bocce court, fitness center, chapel, library, and restaurant-style dining with multiple entree choices nightly.

  • Nonprofit mission-driven operator

    Eskaton is a community-based nonprofit — surplus revenue goes back into the community rather than to shareholders, aligning the organization's incentives with resident care.

  • Sacramento County's only Life Plan Community

    The only CCRC in the county, offering a full continuum from independent living through skilled nursing. Residents can transition between care levels without relocating.

  • Expansive 37-acre campus with resort amenities

    Indoor pool, putting green, bocce court, fitness center with a full-time coordinator, walking paths, chapel, library, and beauty salons spread across landscaped grounds.

  • Restaurant-style dining program

    Multiple entree choices at dinner with locally sourced ingredients. The dining program consistently earns praise from residents and families.

  • Excellent safety record

    The FYI Safety Score is 9.9 out of 10, placing this community among the safest in California.

  • Premium pricing with complex contracts

    The financial structure between care levels can involve unexpected costs during transitions. Families should review contracts carefully and consider consulting an elder law attorney before signing.

  • Campus shows its age in places

    Some buildings on this large campus haven't been updated recently, and the distances between buildings are worth considering for anyone with limited mobility.
