Rent at your own risk !!
June 8, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
Property management is horrible ! I’ve lived here six months and their office phone has been out for 7.5 months, they do not fulfill maintenance requests though it’s apart of our leasing agreement to stay compliant. They’ll send mad emails asking for rent to be paid on time but can’t take care of minor issues in the home. Will definitely not be renewing my lease and highly recommend having any issues in the apartment fixed BEFORE signing your lease because once your lease is signed and they have ...
your money clearly nothing else matters to these people.

Telling lies
September 15, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I was told a lie I was under false pretence to get my application fee and then told the truth and couldn't get my $100 back

We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and we apologize if there was any misunderstanding during the application process. Our residents' satisfaction is our top priority, and we're committed to being transparent at all stages of our service.

Horrible place to live
July 18, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I've lived here for 14 months why, because the rent is cheap for a family of 5. They do not repair anything. The maintenance team blame everything on the contractors so they feel they should not fix anything. We once had a management team that spoke kindly. Now everyone in the office has an attitude. Water has been leaking from my ceiling in the kitchen since I moved in. It has not been fixed. The tech will say they will go in the opening to see what's going on and never do. This is far the worst ...
place to live. If your credit is good and you can afford to live somewhere else please do so. Don't move here.

We intend on addressing this immediately and we invite you to reach out to us so that all pending repairs can be fast-tracked for resolution. We are also taking note of your comments about our team, and will address this as part of our commitment towards improving the tenant experience.
Roaches
March 16, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
This place is disgusting and horribly ran. No clubhouse, playground is broken, apartments are very run down, roach INFESTED, and homeless people everywhere. Do not recommend! Also, keep a receipt EVERY time you pay rent or they will tell you every single month you owe thousands in back pay and lie about it!!

October 3, 2025

As for the concerns about rent payments, we would deeply appreciate the chance to discuss this further and find a solution which suits you best.
A lot of problem with maintenance and cockroaches
September 30, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
there is a shorty who is rude in the offices . don't pick up the phone, they take long time to fix things, I went to the office today 9/30/22 to have the floor fixed, I've been waiting more months for it to be fixed and they told me that when I move they will fix it, ask x my deposit when I moved in and they told me they didn't know what was going to happen to my deposit.
many cockroaches do not come to do the pet control because I have guess or put many excuses. One of the maintenance guy ...
come inside the apt. With cigarettes.

DO NOT COME HERE
March 17, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
New management took over in December and it has been worse since then. (It was already pretty bad) My heat and air has been out since January and is still not fixed. It has been looked at a few times, but they refuse to have someone come out who can diagnose the problem. They patched it up for a couple days, but have not been back in over a week since it went out. Keep these things in mind before you rent:
They are raising their rents.
There is mold in these apartments.
There are roach ...
infestations here.
Electrical issues exist inside the units.
IF YOU HAVE A MAINTENANCE EMERGENCY NO ONE WILL FIX IT!!!

Terrible
September 18, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
They do not respond to any service requests. Management is terrible with nasty attitudes. They are putting on a front to take your money, avoid this place at all cost.

Not as advertised and full of issues
May 26, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
We have lived here for a year now, still having repairs needed- in which they refuse to fix. The actual apartments are nothing like the show houses. Bathtub is seperated from the wall, AC doesn't work (upstairs and downstairs ductwork isn't connected together - they said in these apartments they will offer window units instead), very rude, unwanted and extremely loud outdoor church services by the front office, decorative molding is incomplete, they make you pay to have Comcast wire your ...
apartment - it's not pre-wired, office staff nice when you sign your lease then are negligent. Not to mention huge spider, ant, and wasp problems (that go untreated). Water heater has gone out 3x in 4 months. Doors on closets fall off. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Don't walk, Run from this place!!!
August 26, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
This place is ran by poor management and it shows. The incompetence of the staff is only one issue of this place. Do a tour and you will quickly realize this is one of the worst places in the Huntsville area to rent from.
