    • The leasing office they use is bad

      May 25, 2025
      The leasing they use seem unreliable. For starters, they dont have many slots to work with with it comes to scheduling for a tour. On Tuesday, they told me the agent had a scheduling conflict for 1pm and asked if i could do 1:30, i asked if they had another time. THEY gave me the time of 5:30. I agreed to that 5:30 appointment for sunday, on Tuesday. Fast forward, they sent me a text Saturday night asking me to confirm my appointment for the following day, I confirmed. They texted me the morning ...
      of Sunday, stating the agent called out sick. This place doesn't seem like they want to work on weekends.

    • Little to no complaints.

      October 24, 2024
      I love my unit. Spacious, I hear no noise and I am on the 1st floor. Only complaint is that you have to get out of the car to unlock the gate to get in. Other than the the building is beautiful and well kept.

      I had to jump in and echo what other reviews are saying…I just moved into The Nook and I already regret it. The sound transfer, the noise above and below is crazy, like somehow I can hear everyone and every step they take. You can hear people up on the roof all the time. You can feel your neighbors washing machine shaking your floor. My neighbors smoke inside their apartment and it comes into mine, management doesn’t care. Other neighbors told me that the gym equipment was stolen awhile back and ...
      again management don’t care…so we’re paying for amenities that we don’t get. The property is always dirty like the elevator and the stairs. Wallpaper is bubbling everywhere like there’s constant leaks. They right about the hole in the mailroom. And nobody leaves packages in the mailroom anyway. They’re left outside all the way by the gate. Management tried to get people to stop parking in the lot but they still do. What bothers me day to day is these cheap appliances. For real listen, don’t move here

    • Do not move here

      August 19, 2024
      Like the other reviews have said, don’t be fooled. While the location is great, living at The Nook has been horrendous and I’m not even sure where to start. If you toured it yourself right now, you’ll notice the “secure gate” is wide open and has been for over a month - someone crashed into it and management has yet to get it fixed. You’d probably step in the poop that’s all over the parking lot because residents don’t pick up after their dogs. Residents park their cars all along the fire lane ...
      and handicap spots, making it impossible to get in and out of your parking spot - they’ll even park in your reserved spot that you pay $100 for. You’d see a mailroom with a huge hole in the ceiling, flooded floor, terrible moldy smell, and really your packages are going to get stolen anyway. The elevator randomly goes out of service and takes too long to fix. You can hear your neighbors every move thanks to paper thin walls and cheap sound proofing. We literally haven’t known a minute of peace since moving in and have to wait for our neighbors to go to sleep before we can go to sleep. Save yourself, do not move here.
