Had multiple maintenance issues that went unresolved for long enough that I fixed them myself (including rodent issues). My ceiling started leaking water and it was not "fixed" for literally months -- all that they did was redo the drywall and paint over it, so obviously water still got through. The way they send information is very indirect and unhelpful, and they don't put much effort into maintaining good relations with tenants. This place is extremely overpriced and I would suggest you... stay away no matter how desperate you are. Read More

Awful place to live. Management staff are unhelpful and rude and disorganized. Walls are thin and the buildings are falling apart. Constant unresolved maintenance issues. Trash overflowing from dumpsters and in the ponds. I don't have one positive thing to say about this place after living there for 2 years. There is a reason this place has so many one star reviews. The only reason there are any positive reviews is because they were offering prizes to residents to leave them. Save yourself the... trouble and look elsewhere, there are much better places to live than this over priced dump. Read More

I am a PhD candidate at MSU, and thought this would be a nice place to live not far from my work. Unfortunately, in my 17 years of renting, this has easily been the worst. Stay far away from this place!

If you like your privacy and just want to be left alone to do your own thing, forget about it. They have been inventing mandatory "inspections" of my apartment over and over again. It feels incredibly violating to have strangers force themselves into your home as often as once a month it seems... .

All they care about is the facade. Sure it looks nice on the outside, but the inside is crap. I pay more in heating this little apartment than I paid to heat the multi-story house that I had rented previously in Lansing. When we moved in, there were gaps under the door and under the gas furnace through which I could see daylight. I fixed those, but our gas bill is still extremely high despite the apartment being chilly during the winter. The heating vents barely put out any heat, which implies the ducts are bad, and all my heating cost is going into heating the floor of the apartment above me.

Management is constantly nitpicking and staff is rude. For example, they claim I cannot park my bicycle in my assigned carport. Rather, I have to keep it inside the house. They're constantly nitpicking about exactly what I can and cannot have on my patio. Of course none of this stuff was in the lease that I signed (despite their claims to the contrary), but what am I gonna do? Take them to small claims court for taking my bike? I don't have time for that, and they know it.

Crime is terrible at this complex. Our (locked) car was broken into twice in less than a year and stuff stolen. Stuff gets stolen from porches all the time. Our laundry has been stolen from the laundry facilities. Homeless people sleep on the premises. For most of the year, most of the outdoor lights near our apartment were not working. We complained several times, but they didn't get fixed until we made vague threats about a lawsuit.

I have rented at three other places in the greater Lansing area, and have never had an experience this frustrating and aggravating. Read More

I never write reviews for pretty much anything.

If there’s one thing I wish I knew before moving in its that management doesn’t care about anything. Our unit was literally underneath the property maintenance manager and we’ve had an insulation issue since we moved in. Our electric bills are through the roof because our place is poorly insulated.

Leasing office hours are a joke. They kicked me out at 10am after I came in because they didn’t “open” until 11:30. I usually make fun of reviews like... this but god I can’t wait to move.

I would give less stars if I could. Read More

A new management company took over a year ago. They raised our rent and have continued to allow our buildings to decline. Additionally, they now made it a rule that we cannot even have our own bikes in our own carports and stated they must be stored on the deck or patio. Ironically, they also stated we cannot have "personal property" stored on the deck or patio. so I am not really sure where that leaves us to store our bikes.
