a peaceful home right outside of the city

February 15, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
I’ve lived and worked (maintenance) at a few complexes, and I must say that Lakeshore Ridge does it right. The quality is top notch. The amenities are well placed and well designed. The complex is very quiet, safe, eye catching in a subtle and more mature way, well kept. The staff is very kind and dependable. My neighbors have been great. I didn’t think I had neighbors at one point, a testament to how chill most people are and the quality of the buildings. From what I’ve noticed, this is a ...
mature community no matter the age, race, hometown. There is a few gas stations/convenience stores right outside of the complex, great selection of chain/local restaurants just a few minutes away, Red Mountain is just across the main road, a great movie theater less than 5 minutes away, good shops, several good gyms, and most importantly a Publix less than five minutes away. I looked around thoroughly at other complexes before moving in and looked even more as I am nearing my renewal date, but no place has matched my personal preferences like Lakeshore Ridge has for my price range.

BEWARE

July 8, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
I signed a lease here with a promised move-in date, but it was delayed multiple times. When I finally got into the unit, I was disappointed to find that the kitchen and bathrooms were in poor condition and clearly in need of major updates. The shower in the primary bathroom leaks constantly and desperately needs retiling. It’s obvious they’re just putting temporary patches on outdated units while continuously raising rent prices. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, and I make sure to tell ...
people exactly that. To make matters worse, when I planned to move out at the end of my lease, I discovered I’m required to pay additional fees due to vague "fine print" buried in the lease agreement. This feels like a deliberate tactic to squeeze more money out of tenants who are already frustrated. Rather than invest in meaningful improvements to retain residents, management seems more focused on charging existing tenants extra to make up for high vacancy rates. It's incredibly disappointing.

Management is nonresponsive to issues, not secure or safe

November 13, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
This apartment complex does not make any effort to ensure security as fences are broken and never repaired and the gates are broken more often than working. There are many college students here, being typical college students. Cars are constantly broken into and even our apartment with a 2nd floor balcony was attempted to be broken into twice but thankfully, my alarm scared them away. There are no security cameras and mangements standard answer is to call the police. Many residents smoke weed ...
in the complex and although the contract states that it is not allowed, management will do nothing about it. Our apartment, clothing and furniture constantly smelled of weed and was giving us migraine headaches. No help from management although they were contacted MANY times. The dog poop bags are never filled and residents leave dog poop laying everywhere to contaminate other dogs. Management is plain non responsive to any matters and hard to even reach on the phones. Be ware!

Be Aware

December 12, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
Tried to move in early December '22. Got told my move in date was the 5th. I was moving different cities so I went off of the move in date that we agreed upon. Got Uhaul and came to town. When I arrived I was told the background check was not back yet and was unable to move in but "should be soon" that they get that back. (I move alot and never have had a background check take longer than 48 hours.) I am also moving with a dog so places to stay are limited due to that fact. I called multiple ...
times the following days checking the status. The only answer I got was "I'm sorry it is taking so long but there is nothing we can do". "We will check on it." No problem. So I waited.. Calling back daily. Same answers. I asked for the contact info for the management company so I could actually get an answer. I was not given any information and was still told, "I'll call them and check." Still nothing. So hundreds of $'s later with hotels and such, and with a full uhaul and no ETA. They said, "It could take 2 more days, it could take 2 more weeks." Eventually, after a full week I quit and went to another apartment. I had the keys and moved in 2 days later to a new Apt. I would give 0 stars if I could. The staff is friendly, but take no responsibility and make nothing happen. I am very happy I went to another complex.

Thank you for reaching out. We apologize for this inconvenience, however, this situation was out of our control. This was due to the background check results being delayed. We called the company three times to get updates and to try to speed up the process, but we were unsuccessful. Our company policy is that we must get a completed background check on all applicants before they can move in. If you would like to discuss this further, please reach out to our office at your earliest convenience.

Best Value for the Price

September 29, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
I looked at a lot of apartments and I lived at both Woodmere Creek and Lakeshore Ridge. Lakeshore Ridge was superior in every way for about the same price. I lived in an "upgraded" apt. at Woodmere. It was small, dirty, ugly, and there were constant water leaks in the building. The gate out front was always broken with no attempt to fix it that I saw. You could also hear every step the neighbors took. At Lakeshore Ridge, I had a 1 bedroom on the top floor. Even though the sq. ftg was ...
supposedly the same as the Woodmere 1 bed, the rooms and bedroom closet were much larger at Lakeshore Ridge. The apt. was clean, had a nicer balcony and, being on the top floor, had great high, lofted ceilings. The apt. was also much more soundproofed than at Woodmere. It was very quiet and peaceful. What's more, Red Mountain Park is less than a mile away from Lakeshore Ridge and it has miles of trails. There is also a convenient Walmart, loads of restaurants, and a gas station right outside the complex. In my opinion, there is no contest between the two complexes. If you can get a top floor unit at Lakeshore Ridge, snag it.

Lakeshore Ridge Review

June 1, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
I moved in 3 years ago. We have had several problems with our power bill being extremely high and no one ever fixed it or tried to fix it. They did compensate us a small amount once. The management has changed once and maybe twice since I have lived here making it difficult to get things done or build a relationship with staff. There is always dog poop everywhere. I can always smell marijuana when walking through the complex. Not managements fault, just something to consider if you don't want ...
your home to smell that way. Our water heater caught on fire twice and it took much longer than it should have taken to fix it. The air conditioning unit was leaking into the water heater causing it to short out and catch on fire. The first night it happened the maintenance man was quick to help but he only put a bandaid on it and it caught on fire again the next day because he did not return in a timely manner to completely fix it, causing us to call the fire department twice. Overall, I felt safe living here but I am ecstatic to leave.

I would not want to move anywhere else!

October 8, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
First, not only my apartment, but my apartment complex is amazing. I cannot express how much I love living here. This complex is one of the very well hidden secrets in Birmingham, AL. The staff is beyond will to bend over backwards to help with any problems that we as renters may experience. The leasing manager , Karen, is like a second mom to everyone and she stays on top of any maintenance problems and is willing to work with you to get you that apartment that you can afford. It is not far ...
from anything that is needed like restaurants and there is a park right across from the complex for a nice walk or to go and do some exercising if wanted. The complex is even under construction for expansion because so many want to move in so they are building more apartments to accommodate the demand. I wish to continue to live here as long as I am living in Alabama.

My Own Get Away Paradise

July 21, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
An excellent get away from all of the daily hectic situations that may occur on your job and of everyday life, outside of the apartment community. Unlike any other apartments, it has huge vaulted ceiling rooms and spacious bathrooms, it's like walking into a mansion. The grounds are always well kept and the staff treat all of their residents like family. Therefore, if you are wanting an environment that will give you serenity, luxury, and a sense of feeling secure, this is the perfect place to ...
live! It's like coming home and starting your vacation all over again, in your very own paradise.

phenominal

December 10, 2013 - Review from Apartments.com
When I moved to Alabama, I needed an apartment that was not only well kept, but in a safe neighborhood and was lucky enough to find lakeshore ridge. Their rent is affordable, the grounds are always very well kept, the only "noise" you might here are the people who live above you or someone stomping up and down the stairs. The amenities are always clean and have always been available when I wanted to use them. Their office staff is the best around. I've lived in many apartment areas before with ...
staff that was just ok, but these people greet me by name everytime I walk into the office. One morning they were even handing out breakfast to people on their way to work/school! I love it here and daily think about how glad my roommate and I chose to live here.
