Renters Reviews and Ratings
Amazing experience..
February 28, 2022I just moved in at the beginning of February and I have had an incredible experience with every aspect of this move. Ashely was phenomenal in explaining everything from the contract to welcoming me on my first day and making sure the apartment was good and to see if there was anything that I needed. I love it here! My apartment is fantastic, it has French doors that allow a ton of natural light and the master bedroom and bathroom are very spacious. The community is super friendly, I highly ...recommend this property for your serious consideration.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
office staff leave much to be desired.
October 26, 2021My wife and I lived at this apartment complex for 18 months. The unit itself is nice but not worth the prices they charge. They charge downtown city prices even though it is located in a small town. The current maintenance person Frank is great and very nice. For serval months during our time living here there was NO maintenance staff at all and when something would break the property manager would just try to delay. We had a Refrigerator that did not work correctly for 3+ months she always ...had some excuse as to why it could not be fixed/replaced at any given time. The property manager Ranell & office staff leave much to be desired. The office rarely returned phone calls. No way to open your own maintenance request you have to talk to the office and they don't return calls or pick up the phone most of the time. Parking "rules" are NOT enforced by management. Ranell would often say she had to "Contact Corporate" to find out my question but there was never any follow-up. I asked for the contact for the corporate management company on two different occasions and was never given the contact info. It felt like there were trying to hide. They used COVID-19 as an excuse for not providing access to amenities long after local & state restrictions had been lifted. The location is nice and quick access to the blue ridge parkway. It is a very safe area.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Management ruined it for me
June 2, 2021Parking is horrible, and they do not tow so that parking pass they give you is meaningless. I have had to park at the front office several times in one week. Calling this apartment a gated community is a marketing ploy, at least one gate is always broken. I had them lose my rent payment and try to charge me again by wedging a piece of paper in my door while I was gone for the holidays. That is not a secure way to communicate a time sensitive message for one, and two it is so unprofessional that ...they are unable to keep track of payments. This also happened to my roomate.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Nothing but fond memories
March 25, 2021I lived at VPH at Balsam Mountain for 8 years, and can attest it was the best place I ever lived. Certainly the nicest amenities. Management & Staff are very professional and responsive. The quality of construction is first-rate, as I believe the complex is less than 10 years old and used modern building techniques and materials. Also, very energy efficient, I don't believe I had an electric bill over $150, and I lived in a 3 bed-room.Review from Apartments.com
rude staff and price gougers
February 16, 2021I moved in with a friend who needed a roommate to help with rent. I was added to the lease and was made to pay a deposit, which is weird. They were treating it like a new lease yet refused to provide me a key claiming my friend had gotten the max number of keys over the several years he has lived here. The parking is a travesty. They offer garages for and extra $150 per month but don’t have enough regular parking. People are forced to park on the curb. If you complain about anything the manager ...gets an attitude. I won’t be renewing my lease here.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Bug Infested? Pet murderers? Money Grubbers!
January 26, 2019We stayed there while building our home in the mountains and it was the worst decision we ever made. They charge for your pets and then give you no ability to protect them from their constant pesticide spraying - even after requesting not to have the pesticide team come in, they came in to the apartment when we were not there- is that even legal? They sprayed the poison while our cats were in the same room! My most curious cat must have gone to lap this mixture up and it caused a severe bout ...of Pancreatitis that he barely survived. After narrowly escaping that we soon learned that it had also damaged his kidneys. He was a perfectly healthy (he had just been to our vet before we moved) 8 year old cat before we brought him there and now 2 years later and thousands of dollars in vet costs trying to save / extend his life our sweet boy died 2 days ago; we had no choice but to put him out of his misery. We are devastated and heartbroken. When I questioned the office people they stated that the notice of apartment spraying was sent in an e mail! I never saw it since they sent it less than 24 hours before.The invasion was confirmed by the extermination company.Really!! ...that seems enough notice to warn against our home being invaded while we were not there and our beloved pets being poisoned? I don't think so! They were cold and callous and did not seem to care. Just wanted the money for pet rent etc. Do NOT bring your pets there, they are NOT to be trusted! I will never forgive them. Clean up your act Vantage Pointe Apartments - you have blood on your hands! You turned our mountain dream into a nightmare. Skip this place -black mold in bathrooms - ancient shag carpet , way overpriced.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Sassy
August 17, 2015Love the walking path and the stream behind the apartments. Fairly clean and has recycling on site. Pet friendly and very strict with rules on pets. Needs more parking enforcement and restrictions. Needs to have recycling picked up twice per week. Overall a very nice place to live.Review from Apartments.com
