August 4, 2016 - Review from Apartments.comMy wife and I have lived at Orchard Crest for the past few months, and I can genuinely say that I'm satisfied with our decision on moving here. First off, the location is in a good spot. It's close to my job, and since my wife is a stay at home mom, it's nice that there are a variety of parks near by that she can take the children. Second off, I think that we get the Bang for the Buck. We looked around, and not all places had the amenities that we wanted. Also, the apartment we got is pretty ...decently sized. Third off, we like the amenities that we can enjoy only steps away from our apartment. With the hot weather that we have been having, the pool has been nice to cool down in and have the kids play in. I do wish that there was a hot tub though. It might seem like a little thing, but it's relaxing to sit in after a long day at work. Fourth, the fireplace in the apartment helps add that "homey" cozy feel to the apartment, and the cabinets (even though they are older) help bring color and warmth to the apartment as well. It's not a brand new apartment, but if your are on a budget, there are things that you need to sacrifice -- like not having granite countertops and stainless steal appliances. Fifth, we love the community around us and all the friends we have made here. My wife even borrowed some laundry detergent the other day from our next door neighbors. I wish everyone the same experience that we have had.Read MoreProperty Manager Responded

August 26, 2015 - Review from Apartments.comI have been living here since Feb 2015. I was attracted to these apartments because of their price with washer and dryer included. Aug 2015 the property was taken over by Dobler Management. I have heard bad things about that company, but I'm quite impressed with the changes. I think this is a great starter apartment or for someone not needing much space. They offer covered parking to all residents, flat rate for water sewer garbage , and washer/dryer in unit.Property Manager Responded
March 29, 2018Thank you for your kind review. Rest assured, the bad reviews you have heard were from people who left owing money due to damages or unpaid rent. We have an open door policy both at the apartment community and in the corporate office. Should you have any concerns, please always feel free to reach out at: orchardcrest@dmcimail.com or to info@dmcimail.com. Thank you again for your kind review!
