The Athenaeum of Skaneateles
The Athenaeum of Skaneateles offers assisted living and respite care in Skaneateles, NY. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks while residents have private rooms, and respite care provides a short term stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover. That respite option may suit families seeking temporary support during a caregiver’s absence. With 16 beds, the community is small enough for staff and residents to get to know one another.
Assisted living starts at $8,500 per month, with a separate $5,000 move in deposit paid upfront. Pets are allowed, so residents can bring a pet with them. Restaurant style dining uses table service, and guests may join residents for meals, while the beauty salon, barber shop, gardens, hobby classes, exercise classes, organized activities, group outings, and around the world dining program offer ways to manage grooming, spend time outdoors, pursue interests, and take part in meals and activities. Peregrine Properties of Skaneateles operates the community.
