      • Best place in Lincoln

        September 3, 2023
        Property is always being upgraded. Every week I see someone out here working on the lawns, the roads, the apartments, etc. Management is great. Gabby herself is one reason to stay here. She is absolutely kind and amazing and friendly. She actively shows and stays at apartment events. Maintenance is responsive and well coordinated. Terrence is here practically 24/7 and is happy about it. He has fixed about 80% of our requests. When Terrence isn't available, they send out Rick, who is also ...
        awesome Extremely pet friendly. No breed or weight restrictions. You're more likely to see friendly Great Danes than terrorizing chihuahuas! And if you're scared about all the dog poop, don't be. They have a DNA service to properly fine residents who do not pick up after their pups. Property has a well maintained pool, management is communicative, and its located right next to a park and the Lincoln bike trail. Overall an absolute 10/10 experience. Bills are surprisingly cheap. Worst month was when we paid 13 dollars for water bill. LOL

        October 14, 2020
        Property is very dog friendly. Staff is always friendly to my pup when when we stop into the office for help PLUS no weight restrictions.

      • Surprising bills in the end.

        July 13, 2017
        I was looking for a decent place/price, however this was very poorly kept/managed. Carpet was old and looked dirty. The apt. smelled like cigarette smoke. Got charged for random things I didn't touch in the house because I did not search every crevice at the beginning of my lease. 24 hour maintenence is not helpful. In 85-96° weather, AC did not work and didnt get it fixed until 5 days later (even though its considered an "immediate emergency maintenence issue". Gym is atrocious and sketchy. I ...
        would not recommend to family/friends.

        If you call very rarely will a staff of the apartment answer. This is due to them being out talking with tenets and fixing know problems or issues with the building or neighbors. They keep tenets well informed with what will going on in the near future around the complex. If you have a maintenance issue, no matter what it may be, a maintenance staff is usually there to fix it in three days or less. If your looking for a quiet, pet friendly, just on the edge of town apartment complex. I would urge ...

      • Great!

        August 20, 2015
        My roommates and I were looking for apartments in Lincoln that allowed big dogs. Sadly there weren't very many, and if they did there was a breed restriction on the husky part of our puppy. The Ruskin place apartments are great! They allowed us to have our puppy and they throw parties every so often to keep the community having fun! There are a lot of good qualities to for the dogs: doggy park, doggy stations every few feet, spacious courtyard for you to walk the dogs if you don't want to let ...
