I have lived here for almost 6 years and can truly say that in Mount Pleasant, to be able to be on Shem Creek, and be in such a convenient location, you cant beat it! The staff is so friendly and they truly work hard to make this property a place you enjoy coming home to!

I love the location. The bills are super high for the area to the point something is wrong, when you get at 100 dollar sewage bill here and issues is there. Black mold has been reported an issue in serval apartments which I have not had issue with but is a issue. All the people here are super nice, love the dog park, the area is great, the pool and pier is super nice. Maintenance here is super friendly and nice. Love them. I

The Watch at Shem Creek has some of the nicest outdoor facilities there are in Mount Pleasant. However, the value of the apartment is subpar. Apartments are old and they don't seem to have been remodeled in several years. The rent price is high and not a reflection of the value of the apartment.

The Watch truly feels like coming home. From the moment you drive onto the property you feel like time slows down. Its a charming complex where staff and residents are friendly and the warmth is unlike any other property in the area. If an apartment could give you a hug, this would be the one to do it!

I have lived at The Watch for 5 years. The property is very pretty, lots of trees and on Shem Creek, and is so peaceful. Very rare qualities to find in most apartment complexes. The management, maintenance personnel and staff are so wonderful! Any issues Ive had, have been addressed and resolved in a very prompt manner. I dont plan to move anytime soon!

Amazing Customer Service!!!
September 15, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
I can’t begin to say enough about the amazing customer service I have had with the Watch on Shem creek. The assistant Manager Pam has gone above and beyond to ensure that we were happy during our stay and also happy after we moved. She has dedicated many hours over the phone and through email to make sure our experience was pleasant and seamless. Any issues that occurred we knew that she would be more than willing to assist. Not only did she provide amazing customer service but the apartments ...
were always kept in great shape. If we ever are in the market for another apartment we will 100% lease hear again.
