Capitol Lakes Health Center

Situated in the heart of downtown Madison, Capitol Lakes Health Center provides exceptional skilled nursing care at 333 W Main St — just steps from Wisconsin's iconic State Capitol building and the vibrant cultural life of the city's isthmus. Managed by Pacific Retirement Services, a nationally respected nonprofit organization known for its person-centered philosophy and commitment to dignified, compassionate care, Capitol Lakes stands as one of Madison's most distinguished skilled nursing communities. Residents benefit from an extraordinary urban setting nestled between Lake Mendota and Lake Monona, giving the community a serene, resort-like atmosphere despite its downtown address. Families visiting loved ones can stroll along the Capitol Square, explore the nearby Monona Terrace Community and Convention Center — a stunning Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired landmark overlooking Lake Monona — or enjoy a meal at beloved local restaurants like The Old Fashioned or Sardine, both within easy reach. For medical needs, Capitol Lakes is exceptionally well-positioned. UW Health's main campus and University Hospital are just minutes away, and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital and UnityPoint Health-Meriter are also close by, ensuring seamless coordination for residents with complex or evolving health needs. The proximity to UW-Madison's world-class medical school also means residents have access to some of the most advanced clinical expertise in the Midwest. The surrounding Tenney-Lapham and Downtown neighborhoods offer a walkable, culturally rich environment. Families can visit the Overture Center for the Arts, browse the Saturday Dane County Farmers' Market on the Capitol Square, or relax in James Madison Park along the Lake Mendota shoreline. Hilldale Shopping Center is a short drive away for everyday conveniences. Pacific Retirement Services brings decades of experience operating senior living communities across the Pacific Northwest and Midwest, with a consistent emphasis on resident wellness, staff excellence, and community connection. At Capitol Lakes Health Center, that mission is evident in every aspect of daily life — from individualized care planning to meaningful engagement programs that honor each resident's history and preferences.
