My husband & I lived here for two years and it was, by far, the best rental experience we have ever experienced. The units are very clean & have plenty of space. Any time I had a maintenance issue, they were there the same day. Chris with maintenance was always polite & helpful. The only reason we left these apartments was to buy a home, otherwise we would've continued living there.
All of the office staff knew me by first name whenever I walked in, which wasn't that often. The maintenance crew never showed up more than an hour after I made a request. The amenities are impeccibly maintained and the gym is new and nice. The gates were an issue, but I honestly liked it better when they were broken because it was such a pain to get guests in. The water pressure was very low, but nothing that stopped me from doing what I needed to do. The complex is within walking distance to a nice grocery store. The only thing I didn't like was how many loud young kids were always at the pool or running up and down the stairs, and there were quite a few solicitors. Other than that, I think it's a great place.
I can't say I've lived here yet, but I can review on my first impression of the place. I was shown a Laurel Oak 2 bed/2 bath 1,446 sq foot apartment on the third floor facing the tranquil lake. It was beautiful. Upon walking in, I felt as if the place had a positive chi about it. If I move in here, I think my life will be more balanced than ever. It's perfect for having a roommate because of the split bedroom floor plan (each with spacious full bathrooms with very nice garden tubs). I love the laminate wood flooring that looks well taken care of. Another huge plus is the laundry room, not space, ROOM! All the windows face the beautiful lake lined with a paved walking/jogging trail and dotted with crape myrtles. Every day is going to feel like I'm living in a vacation home. :) I am stoked! My only disappointment was with the fitness center. It is small, and the machines could use updating. Also, I'm attracted to the friendlyness of the staff, security of the entire place, and poolside atmosphere complete with a gigantic firepit that's lit every weekend night. Fun!
