A very well organized facility. The staff really cares about the residents. They had a lot of activities that even included families and they did a lot to keep everyone busy. I would recommend this community to others.
Crossgate
Best place for senior community in the Capital District area! Staff is very attentive and provides care in a loving, friendly way. Residents are great too. It totally has the feel of a family..and I wouldn’t have my mom living anywhere else. They truly made transitioning to this environment so much easier than expected.

Happy 4th of July! 🎆
This year feels extra special as we celebrate America's 250th birthday together. There's something heartwarming about gathering with friends and family to honor a quarter of a millennium of history, the kind of history many of our residents have lived through and hold close.
Here's to good company, sweet summer treats, and the stories that connect us all.
Wishing you and yours a safe and joyful Independence Day. ... See MoreSee Less

Jenga was a hit here this week at Peregrine!
One of our Wellness staff, Priya taught our residents how to play Jenga for the first time. It was fun, suspenseful, & engaging.
Another fun way to play this game is add trivia questions on the Jenga Blocks ( was requested for next game ) 😊
