  • Great place

    August 9, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
    I recently had the pleasure of living at The Birches Apartments, and it has been an exceptional experience. From the moment I moved in, I was impressed by the attention to detail and the quality of amenities offered.

      Greetings User, Thanks for the kind words! It's great to know that we were able to provide you with the highest levels of service. As always, our team is looking forward to your next visit. Hope you visit us again soon!

  • Horrible

    December 14, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    We moved in thinking it wouldn't be that bad but everything is absolutely terrible... they don't want to fix or replace anything. I have never lived in an apartment that had roach problems until I got here, I guess it's a first time for everything. Everything is extremely outdated and nothing was finished before we moved in. They just want your money. They do not want to fix anything or replace anything because they try to save as much money as possible for end of the year bonuses. DO NOT MOVE ...
    HERE. It's not worth the stress or money

  • Never Again

    September 5, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
    My family lived here for one year and we knew we would not be renewing our lease. Day of move in we released there was so much stuff not done to the apartment prior to us getting the keys. A lot of stuff they didn’t fix and the stuff they did took couple weeks. Our ceiling had water damage from a bad storm took 2 weeks of me calling to have them come in and spray over the water stain. Water pressure was low the whole time we were there. For the money, wasn’t worth it at all!

  • Not worth the money

    February 8, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
    I lived there for two years. Management are nice in office and easy to get ahold of, but is horrible when trying to get items replaced. Out of date appliances, my stove was full of mice poo and they refused to replace it.

  • Actually not bad

    August 26, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    Been here for three years now and honestly it isn't as bad as some of the reviews make it seem...at least for us. It isn't a brand new place or super updated; however, you can make it nice. Maintenance has been out day of any time we've ever needed anything. The landscaping and pest control is well maintained. I think what you are paying for with these apartments is the location (any and everything is around here) and the amount of space. I am in a two bedroom and find it to be relatively ...
    spacious for the price. *Remember you are living in an apartment complex, so you will have to deal with some typical things like a loud parking lot or hearing your neighbors walk above you.* My only semi-real complaint would be (with respect) the office staff. Generally the employees are super friendly...maybe just not the most organized/fail to follow through. I usually have to reach out a few times... which is fine if you just know that's what is to be expected. If anything I would blame the manager for not making sure the employees are following through/not following through herself. Other than that...it is dog friendly, a beautiful area and somewhere we have enjoyed to live. As long as you aren't expecting anything fancy it's a great property and overall I would recommend :)

  • Dont do it

    April 6, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
    I moved out due to it being managed terrible and the safety in the complex has gone way down since i moved in. It is not kid friendly or family oriented. The price is way to much.

  • DO NOT LIVE HERE

    March 20, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
    Terrible place to live. Mold growing in the walls, ceiling has leaks and caving in, neighbors smoking in their homes and due to poorly maintained complex the smoke seeks in through the walls. Awful place to call home. Do yourself a favor and find a complex that provides a nice, safe place to live and where the front office doesn’t treat you like trash when you try to get things fixed in your apartment.

  • Unfortunately Disappointed

    March 18, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
    Moved into the Birches thinking things here couldn’t be that bad since I was moving from the Green Run area. I was wrong. Everything I HATED about that area is also here, if not worse. My apartment smells of marijuana throughout the day, management has called the neighbors, patched holes, problem is still there. I hate to call the police, but my newborn will NOT be around the odor. Management (excluding Jordan) is very rude when making complaints, which is very unfortunate. These aren’t the ...
    nicest apartments in the greenbrier area and are a little overpriced, which seemed fine before moving in since they’re tucked away but still close to everything you could need. Down stairs neighbors are loud and rude, generally at night. Complaints, politely knocking, nothing fixes it. You hear the entire parking lot none stop. Do your research and find something nicer for the same price. Save yourself the irritation of dealing with the leasing office and awful neighbors here.

    The property manager is rude and condescending. The spaces are small. They do horrible maintenance. The rent is too much for what you get. Don’t come here
