    I love the character of a historic building and the Shorecrest has it. There's a charm that cannot be duplicated in a modern building and it attracts a wonderfully diverse tenant base which I appreciate. The location and views are near perfect, at a fair price and dogs are allowed. Having a new baby we are extra appreciative of site washer/dryers and parking. While no place is perfect it was a good move for us. And the on site manager is diligent, helpful and friendly. We'll be here for a while.

  • Love the Shorecrest Hotel!

    September 16, 2020
    We moved into the Shorecrest as new empty-nesters. Sold our house, downsized, and very much enjoy the freedom of apartment living. The walls are thick here and it's much quieter than we imagined it would be. The management and maintenance staff are great and attend to problems quickly and they do a good job. The building is lovely, rich in history, a gracious place to return home at the end of the day. Our view of the lake and cool breeze through the windows all summer was so great. We never ...
    needed the air conditioner. The apartment is spacious and open with great natural light, hardwood floors, tall ceilings, nd a nice layout. And! there's a great cast of East-side characters who live here and are awesome to get to know. We love living here. 5 stars!!!

  • Amazing location, rustic look, wonderful staff

    September 16, 2020
    I’ve loved my time at Shorecrest! It’s in the best location there is- walking distance to most anything (especially the lake). It has such charm and history to every part of it as well- the lobby, the hallways, the rooms! The staff is also always kind and willing to help no matter what.
