No complaints
January 6, 2024This is the first apartment that I have rented, but it seems perfectly fine to me. I have not had any issues worth noting. I love the ducks and the geese that like to paddle on the lake; they add a lot of character to the area.Property Manager Responded

Horrible lying management
April 17, 2023Absolutely horrible management they have here. This place went to the dumps of hell with dirty hallways and roaches in building despite charging each resident 8.00 monthly pest control. They admitted to only spraying the hallways. That not going to help inside if roaches going through the walls of everyone’s apartments. The hallways stink from dog pee and dirt all over carpets tracked from these nasty animals. They should steam the hallways with how much money they make here. Also they have loud ...drug addicts living in third floor that bust up whole hallway and fight constantly with loud noises. For this high charges they do here better off to move somewhere else as this place is turning into a slum hole. Management does not care to reply back to residents ever here only worried of raising the rent here.Property Manager Responded

Awful!
July 7, 2022The management in the office are THE worst. Let me start with the apartment it self is run down and just a quick job of a “remodel”. Then when my microwave that was attached to the cabinet started throwing sparks and not working, we reported it to management to get it fixed/replaced. What I was told was they knew about a recall on them and were just “taking them out as they went” with no replacement. Claimed it was stated in the lease. It was not, I had to read the lease to them. AND NOW being in ...the military I have a pcs date before my contract ends. They tried to deny my request, but after saying they better lawyer up they agreed and granted it. I also had a paper saying I will owe $0 for prorated rent signed by management. Day is here and they say I owe $500!! These people are the awful!Property Manager Responded
August 2, 2022I am sorry to read this feedback. We want the most for our residents, and it is disappointing that we have left the wrong impression. I apologize for the issues you have encountered with your unit and for any miscommunication on behalf of our team. I would appreciate the chance to speak with you to see what more I can do to help clear things up. If you are willing to discuss this further, please feel free to reach out.

It's alright, but not a forever home.
September 23, 2021When I first got approved for my apartment, I received a call from the office. I asked if I could view it ahead of time and was told I could not. No biggie. They sent me a virtual tour and told me my apartment would be the same. USB outlets, updated interior and everything. I was very excited. I got to the apartment on move-in day and it was NOT updated at all. It is an ugly apartment and very outdated features, no USB outlets or white cabinetry. I had a ceiling fan in the kitchen that was ...drooping and couldn't open my cabinets when it was turned on because it would be dangerous. When it finally almost fell out of the ceiling, the maintenance man told me the previous tenants installed it themselves. The bathrooms were not taken care of at all and have a lot of water damage on the cabinets. I made a service ticket because when it rained I had a lot of water coming in from the ceiling near the patio door and it took a week for maintenance to address it. I feel duped. I'm very sad that I was tricked into thinking I was getting something better. I will be moving out once my lease is over.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
STAY AWAY!!
September 20, 2021Thankfully I will be leaving this place in a few weeks. It has been nothing but trouble from the beginning. When I first talked to someone in the office (when we were going to move in) they knew what unit was becoming available but were unable to show at the time.. okay no problem. I asked if it was how the pictures on this website are they said yes the apartment was updated. Come to find out move in day the apartment is not updated. Okay whatever I got over it. Then comes the bathroom… water ...damage BAD. The whole cabinet needed replaced. They replaced the cabinet BUT did not find the source of the water damage which I can now say is the toilet. Water damage is also seen under kitchen sink (oh how I wish I could add pics to this review). All the cabinets stick and were very gross when I moved in. I am on the ground floor and would start experiencing ants near the patio door. No problem put in a request and they sprayed for ants (it comes out of our rent every month anyways but they only spray when there is a request). They sprayed but there were still ants. Come to find out there were holes in the sealing of the patio door. Getting them to come is impossible so I plugged it with play dough which is doing the trick for now. Now on to the AC. Our living room AC hasn’t worked since move in. Didn’t really matter at the time since it was winter and it wasn’t being used. Summer is hot so I put in a request to have them look at it. I cleaned the filter prior and even the guy who looked at it said it was clean. He said the condenser is not working they will have to replace it. He said they currently have six that it will be replaced in about 1-2 days. I told him that was fine… a week passed… still nothing until we had another issue. On that day I get a call from the office asking if the AC has been replaced. I told them no it still has the same worn buttons and everything. They then tell me I have to be wrong that they are pretty sure they replaced it. I told them they haven’t and that was the end of the call. I then get a message a couple days later stating they are waiting for more AC units it will be a week or two. A week later I get they have replaced it and the request is closed They haven’t replaced a single thing I work from home and they haven’t been here besides that first time. Not to mention there NO parking. So unless you want to walk a very far distance because people who shouldn’t be here are taking up the parking lot then I wouldn’t even consideRead MoreReview from Apartments.com

May 4, 2021This is probably the worst place I’ve ever lived. The people in the leasing office never know what’s going on and fail to accurately relay info. Parking is terrible there’s never enough spots. During the winter maintenance will snow your car in but won’t dig it out even they did it. The leasing office intentionally reminds you after that fact about the 60 day vacate notice so they can collect more money from you. Don’t waste you’re time looking here, there’s plenty of better looking apartments in ...the area.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
