Great living, affordable, and location
July 9, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
After calling Haven of Ann Arbor home for the past 10 years (I moved here in 2016 when it was still Village Green of Ann Arbor), I felt it was only right to leave a review. Over the years, I’ve made incredible memories and met people I’ll never forget.
The only reason I’m leaving is because my girlfriend (now my fiancée) and I are expecting our first child and decided to combine our households. Since my lease expired before hers, it made more financial sense for me to move. Otherwise, I’d gladly ...
be renewing my lease.
The location is one of Haven’s greatest strengths. You’re only 7–8 minutes from downtown Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan while still enjoying a quiet community. Trinity Health, Washtenaw Community College, and Route 3 public transit are all just minutes away.
Another reason I’ve stayed so long is the staff. Jeff in maintenance has been here for years and is one of the friendliest people you’ll meet, and Kim is equally wonderful. They always stop to say hello and genuinely get to know residents. Every maintenance request I submitted was handled quickly and professionally, and knowing the people entering your home builds a level of trust.
I’ve lived in three different floor plans, eventually settling into the B1 loft for the past nine years.I appreciated how well the apartments were built. I never heard neighbors through the walls or anything.
The community is what truly makes Haven special. The office also does a great job bringing residents together with pool parties, food trucks, Kona Ice, grab-and-go breakfasts, and other community events.
I’ve seen complaints about the clubhouse renovation delays, but my experience has been different. The amenities were already great before renovations, and throughout the project the office consistently communicated updates and explained contractor and weather delays. That transparency mattered more to me than the delays themselves.
My only real complaint was the occasional stink bug. Living next to Matthaei Botanical Gardens and wooded trails comes with nature, but a little Home Defense spray and homemade peppermint oil around the windows solved the problem.
Leaving Haven is bittersweet. This wasn’t just an apartment it was my home for a decade. I rarely write reviews because people usually only leave them when something goes wrong. My experience has been overwhelmingly positive, and I wanted to share that. Thank you to Courtney, Nicole, Jeff, who helped make the last ten years feel like home.
