What we found

Front desk staff, especially Chrissy and Larissa, earn consistent praise for warmth and problem-solving. Pools, fitness center, and grounds are well-kept, and rent is reasonable for Cedar Park. The complex struggles with widespread roach problems, paper-thin walls that carry noise, outdated units with plumbing issues, and slow maintenance response during peak demand. Recent residents report bedbugs, mold on move-in, and surprise water shutoffs.

Serious issues emerge in recent reviews: pest control remains inadequate despite complaints, move-out fees shock departing residents, and gym hours have shrunk from 24/7. Long-term residents note the complex has deteriorated under current management. Families and individuals seeking affordability and amenities may still find value here, but pest and soundproofing concerns are material deal-breakers for many.

Recent shift: Sentiment has deteriorated in the past two months. Older reviews (5-11 months back) praised responsive management and clean grounds. Recent reviews (last month) highlight severe, ongoing roach infestations, failed pest control, and staff sometimes ignoring office visitors. Long-term residents express they cannot recommend the complex under current management.

FAQ

What is the current gym schedule?
The gym no longer operates 24/7; reviews note it now closes too early for residents working 9-to-5 jobs with commutes. Exact hours are not stated in reviews.
Are pets allowed?
Yes. The complex has a pet park and is lenient about pet policies. No breed or size restrictions are mentioned in reviews.
How are work order response times?
Serious maintenance is handled quickly. Routine and non-emergency work orders are slow due to maintenance staff being overworked; residents advise documenting unit damage before move-in to avoid deposit disputes.

Regal Parc draws strong loyalty from many residents who praise the quiet grounds, spacious floor plans, and the genuine care of frontline staff like Molly, whose responsiveness during move-in stands out. Maintenance crews solve problems quickly. But a significant minority report serious problems: pest infestations that persist despite complaints, a deteriorating pool and hot tub left unmaintained, and a punitive move-out process with undisclosed cleaning fees and aggressive deposit charges. Some residents also describe a jarring shift from helpful leasing staff to cold or dismissive behavior once the lease is signed, especially from management. Aging infrastructure and weak AC on upper floors add to wear complaints.

Buttercup Creek Apartments

Current residents praise affordable pricing, responsive managers LeAnn and Tiffany, and prompt maintenance from Russ. The complex is quiet with ample parking and landscaped grounds. Older construction means thin walls, higher utility costs, and unit inconsistencies. Past reviews cite serious management and safety issues from 2020-2022, though recent praise suggests improvement under current leadership. Be aware occupancy limits (4 per 2-bedroom) may affect families, and soundproofing remains a structural limitation reviewers consistently mention.

Long-term residents praise Cedar Park as a quiet, safe haven where maintenance staff like Jose and German respond promptly and show genuine care. However, prospective tenants report a leasing office that cancels appointments without notice, delays move-ins repeatedly, keeps deposits without clear dates, and rarely returns calls. The property itself shows splits between newer upgrades and older units plagued by mold, poor AC placement, and fixtures the office refuses to properly repair.
