      Terrible management. Went without hot water for nearly 2 months. Had to threaten to sue to get it fixed. Now no heat for 3 months with temps in the 20s. Using oven to heat the apartment. Moving out as soon as lease is up

    • Pool has been down for months and more

      September 15, 2022
      Our college student moved in a few weeks ago. We were excited! Pool has been down all summer, sign says shut down by county health department. Apartment was disgusting, last persons hair and grime all over the bathrooms, carpets weren’t clean. No dresser, took being ugly to get one. We tried to be nice initially, but you have to be determined to get what should be provided per lease. Common area walkways need pressure walking. Stinks like trash. Large dark dirty areas on walkway common areas to ...
      apartments. There was trash piled up at entry door of our apartment when we got there. Old shoes and debris in balcony. We had to deep clean to move in. Elevator always on the fritz. Manager doesn’t take complaints serious. Not proactive. How long will tenants pay for a pool that hasn’t been open for months? How long will they tolerate a disgusting elevator? The only way I know to help them is a review everywhere we can until it changes. The website is lovely, gorgeous photos. They are not the reality. Make a visit and not just to the mock apartment set up they show you. Walk the floors of common areas, walkways, every floor and really see it. Change only happens with a voice, documentation, photos, videos. Here’s to helping those tenants get what they are paying for. What I’m paying for, as a parent. And safety, there are some concerns already. Doors being knocked on late at night, tampered door locks, and it’s not just for college students. Advertised as off campus housing for college students. Beware.

    • Do not live here:

      August 23, 2022
      Please DO NOT live here If you are looking for a clean, fun environment for your college experience. I have lived at lighthouse for 3 years and the pool had been out of commission 50% of the time (constantly failing inspection, poor ph levels, basically it was a health hazard). We basically never got to use the pool and they did not compensate for the lack of amenities. The fire pit that they advertise is also broken most of the time. We would go out there to sit at the fire pit and 2/3 of the ...
      time it wouldn’t turn on so with no pool or fire pit there was nothing to do. Not to mention that there is TRASH EVERYWHERE. I constantly had to step over trash to get to my apartment and my roommate had a dog and we would walk him often and there was just trash littered everywhere. Management had changed about 5 times since I had been living there, making it impossible to get anything done. It was so unstable and horrible to deal with. With no pool (when I left august 1st 2022, the pool was green and filling with algae and mold) no fire pit, trash littered everywhere, and poor management they INCREASED rent almost $100. The management turn over also resulted in maintenance problems, with trash everywhere and no maintenance the roaches were so bad. I was counting down the seconds until I was OUT OF THERE

    • Mold and Mildew central

      August 21, 2022
      If you value you or your pets health at all, don't live at Lighthouse. There are far better options for student housing in the Wilmington area. Don't waste your time touring Lighthouse, they show you a fantastic show room and make promises just to bait and switch once you sign the lease. Upon entering the unit, we were greeted with a place that had clearly not been cleaned after the last tenants left in July. The floors were not just covered, but CAKED in dirt. There was an air filter sitting ...
      on the floor of the kitchen. The dresser is in bad condition, a piece of the drawer track fell off and the whole thing is stapled together. Washing machine was broken. And when we took a look behind it we found moldy towels and socks had been left. Continue to find roaches in both the bedroom and common area. Security system does not turn on. Got a hole straight through the wall in the closet. We have brought attention to these issues and none of them have been resolved after a week. They said that they had bigger problems to take care of. I'm concerned with the health of my kitten and myself due to all of the mold, mildew and dust.

    • Don't waste your money

      October 5, 2021
      We have so many issues with our apartment. From broken dishwashers, dryer, ac broke in the first week of living here. Not to mention the pool was never opened. The only upside of this place is the maintenance man Rod. He goes above and beyond to try and fix everything on his own and never ceases to have a positive attitude and care for the residents. The issue is the front office being unhelpful at best. They don't seem to care about anything but getting their monthly check, especially not the ...

      December 12, 2017
      The only good thing about this apartment complex is the amenities and the location everything else sucks. I had someone throw up in my car and they didn’t do anything about it . The front office only fixes your issues if it’s convenient for them and not a lot of work. Parking sucks and your car will get towed

      The only perk to living here is the location, it's the closest complex. Staff is unfriendly and unhelpful. No one uses the amenities.

      Lighthouse has EVERYTHING I need to be a successful student at UNCW. Not only do they have a 24 hour hallway which has a gym, computer lab with a printer but also a study room so I don't have to go to campus to find a quiet place to study. I also like that they give you a choice between Macs and PC's and free printing. When I'm not studying, there is so much for me to do just on the site to relax! I love the new hammock garden they just put in and the fire pit. The experience I have received from ...
      Lighthouse has been the best and I plan on staying here the remainder of my undergrad!
