DO NOT MOVE HERE
May 13, 2025
Ant and roach infested buildings. No matter how clean you keep your apartment, an ungodly trail of ants will always be crawling around. I almost crashed my car because I saw a trail of ants coming from my FRESHLY WASHED jacket as I was driving. I pay for a RESERVED pass ($75/mo) and my car was still towed FROM MY RESERVED SPOT. Only half of the washers/dryers ever work at a time, and they don’t work well. $3.50 for a half-done wash and $3 for smelly dryers. Management/leasing NEVER answers the ...
phone- you must go over to the leasing office where you’ll be met with annoyed gazes as if your presence is an inconvenience. Half of the residents are college students with remarkably poor hygiene, so the buildings smell like sweaty underarms or strong spices. PLEASE, for your mental health and sanity, RENT ELSEWHERE.

Disappointed with Prairie Shores: Mishandled Charge
December 31, 2024
I lived at Prairie Shores for quite some time and, unfortunately, my experience ended on a very disappointing note. After moving out, I received a charge for door repair, which I believe was mistakenly applied. I reached out to request detailed documentation supporting this charge. While Prairie Shores initially responded and assured me they would follow up, I never received the requested information despite sending multiple follow-up emails. Rather than addressing my concerns or providing ...
clarification, the charge was forwarded to a collections agency. The collection agency, IQ Data International, contacted me with what they called a "courtesy call" before proceeding with collections. During this call, I explained the situation and the reason for the delayed payment. However, their representative informed me that my only option was to "pay in protest." To make matters worse, I was pressured to make the payment immediately during that call, without being afforded even a single day to review the matter or seek further clarification. I am incredibly disappointed with Prairie Shores’ lack of transparency, communication, and accountability in handling this issue. Additionally, the high-pressure tactics employed by the collection agency felt unfair and unprofessional. This experience has been both frustrating and distressing, and I strongly urge Prairie Shores to improve their processes for addressing tenant concerns and disputes.

DON'T MOVE HERE
December 30, 2024
By far the worst place I have ever lived in 40 years! Cockroaches, low water pressure, laundry is hit or miss if the machines work, security it practically worthless, and the leasing staff is rude, incompetent, and lazy. 9 months in and I still don't have all the services that I'm required to pay for. DO NOT MOVE HERE!

Leasing office is a joke.
June 28, 2024
You literally have to beg them to pay attention to you. I don’t understand what the leasing agent’s job here is. Don’t waste your time here. I had an appointment which I was late to, due to being new to the city. An agent still attended me and sent me a virtual tour, and also told me to email her back so she could put me into her tour schedule the next day. I did so. She didn’t answer until the next day, then proceeded to simply ask me the same question she had already previously asked me. ...
Finally, she asked what day would work for a tour. I suggested the next day again. She emails back saying it’s full, and if the next day would work. I said yes! Whatever times works for you, I’m in… No answer. Next day comes, I follow up. No answer. Next day comes. Email her and the leasing office. No answer. Called the leasing office 3 different days, over 5 different times, all at different times. No answer. I mean… just exactly what do you do at work?

lived here for a year and I wouldn’t recommend it

They turned off the heat for a few days in one of the most coldest days of this past winter. Poor management service.
Review from Apartments.com

Look elsewhere and stay away
January 16, 2024
I have lived here since early 2023, and have had relatives here in the past. I currently live in one of their "renovated" units. -Heating issues are terrible here. WGN came out on 1/16/24 due to the excessive complaints of no heat, my own unit is barely 50 degrees currently. Golub/Prairie Shores wasted a ton of money on the "Hub" building instead of replacing these windows that are from the 1950s. -I constantly see ants and tiny bugs in my apartment. My building had a whole building pest ...
control happen 2 months after moving in as roaches kept getting seen everywhere. I still see them maybe once or twice a month. -Ground floor units suffer from plumbing issues it seems. My kitchen sink would constantly back up from the sewer. The explanation given was that it just happens to the ground floor units due to all the units above it, which is just not an acceptable answer. -Bathroom faucet constantly leaks out rusty water when it's first turned on. -Freezer would constantly have issues going into a defrost cycle and ruining my food. It was swapped with a new unit, and that new one developed the same defrost issue within 2 months. -Parking is atrocious, and Contract Tow should be ashamed for raising the annual $125 parking fee to $25 flat fee every month (now it's 300 total). You get no guest passes. Winter parking is terrible for guests as King Dr has a winter overnight parking ban. -People here are inconsiderate in general. Laundry machines are communal in the basement (10 washers, 10 dryers) as most units do not have their own laundry units. People will take up more than 3 washers/dryers at a time, and then leave their clothes in there for hours on end. If you don't do your laundry in the early morning or late at night, get ready to have to move peoples laundry out and deal with them crying about it. -Lease renewal is a joke. They jacked my rates up over $150 for a studio. I am moving out shortly, and checked that they listed my studio for the original rent I was paying instead of the lease increase. That is just ridiculous.

STAY AWAY
November 6, 2023
Sent in my application never got a call, text email from anyone at the leasing office. I called multiple times and never got an answer. Sent an email on Saturday which according to their website, and on the application form, both leasing and management office are open: OFFICE HOURS Monday-Friday10AM-6PM Saturday10AM-5PM Sunday12PM-5PM Please note, above are the Leasing Office hours. The Management Office will be opened Monday through Saturday. Spoke with somenamed Demisha who said no one ...
was in the office Thursday, Friday, Sat or Sunday. So essentially 3 out of the 4 days that they have posted as open. Again, I was the one who had to constantly call without a response. And after all that ordeal, she tells me that my admin fee will be refunded in the form of a check in 30 days. Ridiculous, how can I be sure that I am going to get a response or even get my $425 if they are very difficult to get a hold of. I also find it extremely frustrating that I was the one that had to chase them down for a response. Please be careful when filing out application to live here as they lack basic business etiquette such as communication and basic customer service skills. If this was the awful experience applying I cant even begin to imagine how awful it must be to address any issues living there.

Liars. Sub par, roach infested building.
June 28, 2023
When moving in I explicitly asked about the roach problem I has seen in the reviews but was assured that this was not the case. Upon move in a dead roach fell out of my blinds. A couple months later: my apartment is infested. 3001 does indeed have a roach problem. No updates in the bathroom. Noise isn't too bad. The windows don't shut all the way and I have already had maintenance come but they did nothing but add a bit of caulk. Small flies are now entering my apt through the hole they left. ...
Lastly, the hallway consistently has trash in it.

Definitely not as professional as they seem
June 24, 2023
I was shown an apartment that had potential. As soon as I walked in there, I turned on the water faucet Rusty water came out. Turn off number one the apartment actually look pretty decent. However, they had old outdated window air conditioners in every room. Keep in mind. This is a two bedroom, therefore the air conditioners were in three of the only rooms available (high electric bill) and as I mentioned, they were old and outdated. The hallways reeked of garbage because supposedly the garbage ...
shoot was broken. my husband and I left the apartment and went home to discuss if we would proceed we were going to give it a chance however, the agent we were working with has not returned my call for the last four days I’ve called over eight times and no one has even called me back. All bad signs. I definitely don’t think it’s worth it. Beware at your own risk

RUN
April 4, 2023
I moved here last year in the summer and let me just say it has been traumatizing! Not only is there pest issues but there are people who steal packages every day. Not to mention my car was stolen in the parking lot to my building. I paid for a parking pass and it was still stolen. They will also towe your car no matter if you have a parking pass or not! I can smell all of my neighbors food through the vents. This is not a safe complex to live in. For the price I’m paying, it is NOT worth it! You ...
have been warned. The only thing good here is the renovated units. If you want to keep your car run far away from this place. It will either be stolen or towed.
