Renters Reviews and Ratings

July 29, 2024It is a basic community. It has average amenities. It is an old community and unfortunately it's age is starting show. Trash thrown on the ground by residents. An overwhelmed maintenance staff. Finally rats running around in broad daylight. So in conclusion this is a place to stop on your journey for a place to live permanently but not the end goal.Property Manager Responded

March 25, 2024Worst place I have ever lived! Dirty, overpriced, and lied to multiple times from the very beginning. I continue to pay for “amenities” that aren’t available and have been overcharged (stolen from) at every opportunity. Some of the “management team” are the most unprofessional people I’ve had to deal with. Regret moving here and can’t wait to move out.Property Manager Responded

Unprofessional Staff/ Cluttered Complex
February 21, 2024I went into this apartment complex inquiring about a one bedroom one bathroom. The receptionist was nice, however was very distracted while trying to give information about the complex, prices etc. The complex itself was okay, however people’s properties were very cluttered on the outside with belongings scattered around. Would not recommend this complex.Property Manager Responded

If you like rats, this is your place!
August 21, 2023We lived here and it is rat infested. You can hear the rats in the walls and ceiling. They run all over the garage and it's embarrassing when you have visitors. We complained, wrote emails, made calls, all to no avail. Do not live here!! Run!!Property Manager Responded

Going downhill fast
June 23, 2023Hope you don't want to use the pool in the summer, management decided it's only open office hours which is TUES-SAT until 5pm. So if you actually work for a living, you get to enjoy the pool Saturday afternoons only. Not to mention the breezeways are disgusting and full of trash and stains. The parcel box is broken every other month now it seems. Put in a work order? Expect that to be completed months later. Office staff doesn't know anything and good luck getting a call back.Property Manager Responded
June 30, 2023Hi there. We are saddened to see your concerns and think it would be best if we furthered this discussion with you directly. Please give us a call at your earliest convenience and we would be happy to speak with you.

stay far far away
October 1, 2022If you enjoy rats, break ins, “miscommunications,” and empty promises then this is your place!!!!! First year was great but then management changed 3 times over the course of about a year. Maintenance requests were never fulfilled, staff was rude, and the garage was nauseating and dangerous. The pool was fun if you need to practice snorkeling in murky water where you couldn’t see a few inches in front of you. if you enjoy sending many emails and meeting many many new people in management, run ...over to lakeside.Property Manager Responded
October 7, 2022Due to the nature of your concerns, we think it would be best if we spoke with you directly. Please stop by our office at your earliest convenience so we can discuss these claims. We look forward to speaking with you soon.

Terrible experience here
August 9, 2022Parking garage is horribly unsanitary and UNSAFE! Huge rats and ants everywhere! The parking garage is also a hot spot for break ins. Literally dozens a week. No cameras and the entrance gate stays open so anyone has access 24/7. Management has done nothing about it even though you'll pay $15 or more a month for "safe and secure" parking. Maintenance personnel are unprofessional and rude and the units are not near worth what you'll pay. Skip this place it doesn't deserve even 1 star.Property Manager Responded
August 12, 2022Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are concerned by this assessment of our community, as we strive for an exceptional experience all-around. Please call us at (512) 600-9400 to discuss these and any other concerns directly. We care about your comfort and would like to address these issues as quickly as possible.
Review from Apartments.com
Terrible Living Conditions and Horribly Run Complex
January 26, 2022All of the previous office personnel and managers have quit within the last 3 months as well as a majority of the Maintenance team. I wholeheartedly believe it's due to the new ownership. Renovated units literally just added a new paint color and replaced the carpet with wood. Water clogs, Floods, leaks, cracks in walls and horrendous communicating from the office!Property Manager Responded
May 17, 2022Hello. Due to the nature of your concerns, we feel it would be best if we spoke with you directly. Please give us a call when you have a moment.
