Short-term residents renewing leases with established staff support; avoid if you need responsive maintenance.

Core details are sourced from this business's Google Business Profile (checked 2026-09-22). Website-sourced details were fetched 2026-07-21.

What we found

New residents and those renewing leases often praise staff member Jillian's professionalism and the peaceful setting with walking trails and a pool. The property shows well on tours and common areas maintain cleanliness when management is stable.

However, most recent residents report a sharp operational decline since mid-2024. Maintenance requests sit unaddressed for weeks despite follow-ups, pest control has failed to handle an ongoing squirrel infestation, and the office frequently does not return calls or emails. Former residents describe being ghosted for security deposit refunds that remained unpaid months after move-out, and multiple ownership and management transitions over the past year appear to have disrupted basic operations and tenant communication.

Residents also flag that single-pane windows cause high heat load and poor soundproofing lets neighbor noise bleed through, making the space stressful for sensitive sleepers. Appliances like toilets, refrigerators, and dishwashers are reported to have lingering defects that maintenance has not resolved across years of work orders.

Praised for
  • Leasing staff attentive (Jillian named)
  • Trails and pool amenities
  • Peaceful setting and neighbors
  • Clean property when maintained
Watch-outs
  • Management changes tied to service collapse
  • Maintenance requests ignored or falsely marked complete
  • Security issues (theft, broken gate)
  • Unresponsive to calls and emails
  • Security deposits not returned
  • Poor soundproofing and aging appliances

Best for: Short-term residents renewing leases with established staff support; avoid if you need responsive maintenance.

Strong leasing experience with Jillian; severe operational decline since mid-2024 with unresolved maintenance and poor tenant communication.

Dog park available; however, pest control failures (squirrel infestation) and unresponsive maintenance suggest care gaps.

Great Hills

3.9(163)✓ Google-verified

Great Hills has a split reputation: residents consistently praise the leasing team (especially Isabella, Kristine, and Melissa for professionalism and friendliness) and value the quiet North Austin location near shopping. The core problem is aging units with limited upkeep. Reviewers report original 1984 appliances still in use, chipped paint, single-pane windows, and cockroach cycles. Critical complaints center on broken move-in promises, slow emergency responses (heating during winter outages), and high move-out charges even when apartments were left clean. Staff quality masks structural decay. Several long-term residents stayed 2+ years and plan to remain, citing safe surroundings and responsive leasing staff who personally know tenants. Others left within weeks due to failed HVAC during summer heat and management defending failed-seal windows. Maintenance quality is inconsistent: some praised Alex and Bruno for evening AC repairs; others waited days for emergency heating fixes. Cost of living is high (electric bills up to $250/month reported) due to old single-pane windows and inefficient systems.

Good leasing staff like Terri and Brad make the tour and signup process smooth, and some tenants report maintenance responding within days. However, mold growth tied to water quality, slow repairs, and management unresponsiveness dominate complaints. Security deposit disputes and move-out cleaning fees are common grievances. The community offers spacious one- to three-bedroom units with high ceilings, pet areas, and a pool. Dog waste and unleashed dogs on grounds are recurring concerns. Residents note a divide between professional maintenance teams and inconsistent management, with significant turnover making it hard to know what standard to expect.
