    Lakeside at Southwood offers a well-maintained community in a peaceful setting. The apartments are well-designed with plenty of natural light, and the amenities (pool, fitness center, and clubhouse) are a nice bonus. I appreciate the responsiveness of the management team whenever I’ve had questions or maintenance needs. Overall, a reliable and comfortable choice in Tallahassee.

    Review from Apartments.com
  • Extremely disappointed in the management and maintenance at this complex.

    June 26, 2025
    The front office constantly lies about resolving issues—they make promises, schedule repairs, and then ghost you completely. Maintenance claims they’ll return to fix things and never show up. You’re forced to chase them down repeatedly, and even then, you’re ignored or fed more false assurances. Most concerning is the ongoing leak in my unit, which has now spread to the electrical panel. This is a major safety hazard, and yet there has been zero urgency from the apartment staff. I’ve reported ...
    it multiple times, and still no real action has been taken. The situation is dangerous, unlivable, and completely unacceptable. If you’re considering moving here—don’t. They do not care about tenant safety or basic maintenance responsibilities. Rent somewhere else where your health and safety will actually be taken seriously.
