This property is great
July 11, 2023Just moved in a week ago. needed some maintenance work done went online to request an order and the maintenance workers came the next morning to fix the job now everything is good and I love my new place! Thanks, staff membersProperty Manager Responded
July 17, 2023Hi! It’s so wonderful to hear from you, and it’s even more wonderful to see how much you’ve enjoyed your experience at our community so far!

Review from Apartments.com
Pricey for lots of restrictions
April 5, 2023The neighborhood is alright, however there are a lot of restrictions here such as smoking rules and maintenance requests costing exponentially more than it would for you to fix the issue yourself. If there are two people with two cars you basically need to purchase a carport to be able to park your car at the complex due to visitor spots being far few and in between.Property Manager Responded
April 10, 2023We thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback. All of our Weidner communities are non-smoking. We understand that parking can be a challenge, but we're thankful to have alternatives to ensure parking is available. With maintenance requests, there is no cost for general wear and tear - things happen; there are only charges if the damage is due to negligence and misuse. Our team is happy to discuss the differences with you, if you have any questions about this. If there's anything else we can do to address your concerns then please feel free to call or text our office at your earliest convenience; we're eager to help! Hope to hear from you!

I love it here
December 28, 2021I don’t have many complaints, this is my first apartment to myself. Besides the crackhead activity at 4am from my neighbor it’s pretty nice, the office people were HUGE help with my move in date, I was in a pickle with moving and they help me in every way! Walls are a little thin, I can definitely hear the upstairs kids doing wwe.. but overall 10/10.. will be renewing my lease when the time comes. Happy to call this home. For nowProperty Manager Responded
January 5, 2022Thank you so much for your feedback! We are happy to hear that you had a wonderful move-in experience with our team here at The Ridge and Shores. We look forward to you being a resident with us and calling our community home for many years to come! Sincerely, Your Ridge and Shores Team

Review from Apartments.com
Not bad for Federal Way
August 10, 2015The Ridge and The Shores are two neighboring apartment complexes with shared management. I have lived in the Shores for a little over a year. The location is convenient, and seems quieter than most parts of Federal Way. The apartments are good size, and usually there is plenty of extra parking. The buildings are really starting to show their age, and feel a little run down. Overall they are a little pricier than they should be, but not bad.Review from Apartments.com
Not worth the money
July 21, 2015The rent is set way to high, for this 70 style apartment complex. I look forward to movingReview from Apartments.com
