  • Bad experience

    March 21, 2025
    Walked in for a tour and the front desk worker was very rude and not accommodating. Was not eager to help and was upset that we did not schedule a tour online.
    • Property Manager Responded

      June 17, 2025
      Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience at the front desk during your tour visit. This is not the level of service we strive to provide. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we’ll be addressing it with our team to ensure every guest feels welcomed and valued—whether they schedule online or walk in. If you’re open to giving us another chance, please reach out to me directly at 804-395-6288. We’d love the opportunity to provide you with a better experience. Thank you again, Cardinal Forest Management

  • Horrible

    October 28, 2022
    I lived here for 3 months. I was getting bit up in my apartment, and the exterminator couldn't even figure out what was biting me. I was told I would have to pay 4 months rent to break my lease. I would have paid 5 months just to get out of that apartment.

  • Terrible apartments

    August 23, 2021
    I still live there for now but they are very slow on repairs, if they even repair anything. Trash everywhere because they took out all the trash bins for a centralized compactor that hasn’t worked yet. The front office is trifling, won’t answer the phone and want to argue over the simplest of things. I tried to get a 2 day guest pass for parking and they won’t even do that. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

      We value resident feedback and would welcome the opportunity to address any concerns you may have in greater detail. Please set up a time to meet in person with our office. We hope to work together to improve your rating of our community.

  • False statements

    July 15, 2021
    When ever I call them they say they have apartments available for lease, they tell we can come and look at the apartment . Once we reach there they say there are no apartments available . This is the third time we were experience this!!! Not sure how would it be after signing the lease thanks we got experienced before!!

      Hi Swathi, it saddens us to see your experience with our community wasn’t more positive. Our future residents are important to us and while we strive to provide excellent service, we are sorry we missed the mark with you. Thank you for your feedback

  • Don't Move Here

    May 9, 2017
    This is the worst apartment complex we have ever lived in. We've only been here for a year and 10 months and we've have more problems than anywhere else we've ever lived. Our gas water heater broke twice, causing us to have to vacate our apartment both times. The toilet in our master bedroom hasn't worked since we moved in, despite numerous calls to maintenance. More recently, the ceiling in our bedroom collapsed while we were sleeping in bed because of a crack we told them about 4 months ago ...
    that they never fixed. I wouldn't suggest anyone move her until the do some serious work to their units and not the patch job they seem to think is okay.
