September 28, 2024The entire move in experience was fast, easy, and very comfortable. The community is secluded and gated, giving me an extra feeling of security. Rent prices will always be wacky in general, but the quote I was given was well within my price range without overextending myself. This also includes the cost of renting a washer and dryer for an extra fee, which I opted to do. My unit was clean and ready upon move in, with appliances all in working order. My pets were welcomed on the property and the ...fees to bring them in, were a little high comparatively, but not outrageous so it wasn't a deal breaker. I can't wait to experience everything that's here and enjoy my time in my new place.Property Manager Responded
October 5, 2024We appreciate your positive feedback and are thrilled to hear about your smooth move-in experience. It's wonderful to know that our community's environment and pricing met your expectations. We're also glad that your pets feel welcomed. We hope you continue to enjoy everything our community has to offer. Sincerely, The Escalante Management Team

August 21, 2024Honestly can’t complain about here, I’m new to Texas and almost everywhere I’ve looked was overpriced roach infested hole in the walls in awful parts of town… This place is beautiful along with the location and its quiet!! the neighbors are always so friendly, we love that Escalante keeps up with the community we get so excited when they host food trucks or little events at the front office. The apartments have so much space and open lighting, the pool/gym are great amenities my family and I ...love! CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW AMAZING IT IS THAT THEY KEEP UP WITH PEST CONTROL OMG!! Maintenance Is fabulous also imo (:Property Manager Responded

August 15, 2024I love the apartment and we have some pretty great neighbors. I do wish there was a safer alternative to having to walk in the parking lot, like having more (and continuous) sidewalks as my family likes to go for walks or take the kids out. The maintenance are pretty on top of things and always super friendly. It would be awesome to have a small playground as well but I’m not complaining as we do have a good park down the street. I think my only complaint is having to use a phone app to open the ...gate. Key fobs are much safer and less distracting while trying to drive, and take less time than sitting at the gate to unlock phone and attempting to use the app that doesn’t even work half the time, especially when there are people waiting behind you.Property Manager Responded
August 28, 2024We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you're enjoying your living experience with us. Your suggestions regarding the sidewalks, playground, and gate access are valuable and we'll certainly take them into consideration as we continually strive to enhance our community. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to us at 1 210-479-7010 or escalantemgr@willowbridgepc.com. Sincerely, The Escalante Management Team

August 5, 2024I’ve lived here for, I believe, around five years now and I still absolutely love this place! The view is nice and the maintenance is wonderful—as are everyone in the office. They’re all easy to talk to and willing to work with you on any issues that may arise. If you’re looking for a great community and a wonderful place to live: this is it.Property Manager Responded

July 31, 2024I’ve been living here for a little over 5 months, and there isn't one bad thing I can say. Sure, the apartment isn’t perfect, and some things could definitely be improved, but that's true for every apartment. Overall, the people are great, and I feel very safe living here. My apartment is super spacious, and I love the amenities.Property Manager Responded
