December 23, 2025If you’re looking for a new home, I recommend Shadowood. In my opinion all your housing and amenities needs should be satisfactory. In addition, all team members of Shadowood are extremely professional and can provide support to make your living mutually meaningful!Review from Apartments.com
Nice spot
September 30, 2025Affordable, maintenance has been pretty good for me, friendly and helpful staff, good gym, good pool and rec area (volleyball court and tennis/basketball court). Location is good if you like accessibility to town and the rest of the area, and don’t want to get swamped by game day traffic. Bus stop is just outside so it easy to get around town if you’re not driving.Property Manager Responded

Cool spot
September 13, 2025I recommend living at Shadowood. I am new to Chapel Hill, and spent a lot of time checking out different complexes. I’m very happy with my decision to live here. The management team has been great and is on site. They’re very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The complex is older, but well maintained. The grounds are beautiful, lots of trees and ornamentals. The area is clean and there is ample parking. The neighborhood feels lively - I often see people walking around and using the community ...amenities. Overall Shadowood feels like a safe, quiet neighborhood. During the day as well as at night. It’s tucked away but still conveniently located. Rent prices seem fair for the area as well.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com

July 28, 2025The new management has become strict about rental payment and pool hours, and maintenance is slow/unresponsive. The pool is nice, and the apartments are close to the bus stop to go to UNC. The buildings are old and the walls are crumbly. Price is fine. They don't raise the rent significantly each year, which is why I stay.Property Manager Responded

April 10, 2025Shadowood has been such an amazing experience for me. My apartment is one of the most spacious I've lived in, and all at an affordable price. We're in the two-bedroom loft option, and it's the perfect amount of space for a couple and two cats, especially since I work from home. It's right by UNC so my husband can take the bus to his grad school classes with no problem, and the location is surprisingly green considering how urban it is. The amenities are also worth noting, I've literally taken ...up tennis because of how nice the court is! The pool is spacious, and the gym has nearly everything I could want. I have every intention of staying here until either circumstance takes us somewhere else, or we purchase a home. I've really enjoyed this community, and would recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful to live.Property Manager Responded
