My husband and I have lived at Lakeside at Campeche since June of 2015. When we initially moved it, we were satisfied with the unit we were in (1B/1B, plan 1B). Decent amount of space, parking isn't too bad in the FRONT of the complex, and the pool area was nice. The grounds are kept up to the level I'd expect for a low-to-mid-range apartment complex.
Things went downhill, VERY fast. The office staff has changed multiple times. The first two sets were incredibly rude and incompetent. The
...current staff is friendly, however, they blow you off anytime there is an issue. They claim that they "can't find" any record of my past maintenance requests, the pet addendum we filled out, the vehicle information form that I gave them (twice), or the incident report from when our vehicle was broken into. When we resigned our lease the same employee told us that, although we should have a new lease written, due to my name change, she "didn't want to do anymore paperwork".
Some of the issues that we have are:
1. DUST. An excessive amount of dust layering every surface within an hour of dusting with a damp cloth. It is SO bad, that we are having horrible headaches and sinus congestion within minutes of entering the unit. The new office staff came to our apartment and basically said that it is a common issue in this region, and something we just have to get used to. We have lived in the area for years, at other complexes, and have never had this issue. It was a problem well before we had any pets.
2. There is water coming through the ceiling (we are 2nd floor), creating large water damage spots. We reported it MONTHS ago, and nothing has been done. The water marks have grown in size since then.
3. The wall by the window has water coming through whenever it rains- it looks like the the wall is about to fall through. We also reported that months ago, they had someone come look at it, including a contractor (who agreed it needed to be repaired), and still didn't do anything.
4. All of the caulking and surface paint in the bathtub is coming up
5. If you do not run your dishwasher every day (even empty), water and other things back up into the bottom, creating a TERRIBLE smell. It also happens whenever the disposable is used.
I would not recommend that ANYONE moved to lakeside at Campeche unless you want constant allergy attacks and headaches inside your own home, your car broken into, the staff to ignore you, and water leaking inside every singe time it rains.
