Renters prioritizing affordable North Austin location and willing to accept maintenance trade-offs for pet-friendly amenities.

What we found

Staff like Bob and Monica earn consistent praise for leasing support and attentiveness, and rent is competitive for the North Austin location. Behind the friendly front desk, reviewers report ongoing battles with roaches, delayed repairs (elevators offline for a week), broken security gates, and frequent disturbances from residents and transient foot traffic. Management appears quick to lease but defensive when issues arise.

The dog park and fitness center work, and quiet units do exist. However, maintenance follow-up is often incomplete, pest control treatments fail to resolve infestations, and ADA accommodations break down under pressure. Several long-term residents have left due to roaches; others cite mold, drug activity, abandoned furniture at dumpsters, and a permissive attitude toward rule-breaking. Affordability and location draw renters, but living conditions often fall short of tour promises.

Praised for
  • friendly leasing and office staff
  • responsive management for maintenance requests
  • affordable rent relative to Austin market
  • quiet common areas and good amenities
Watch-outs
  • persistent roach and pest infestations
  • slow elevator repairs and mobility access failures
  • broken security gates and safety concerns
  • inconsistent maintenance quality and follow-up
  • excessive noise and disturbances from residents and transients

Long-term residents praise the leafy North Austin location, friendly individual staff members like Kimberly and Lauri Jo, and the value of spacious older units at moderate rent. Yet recent arrivals report weeks-long maintenance delays, severe cockroach infestations across apartments despite requests, hostile office communication, and property-wide condition issues ranging from cracked stairs to debris-filled dumpsters. The divide is sharp: those who stay longer tend to overlook dated infrastructure; newcomers cite systemic unresponsiveness and sanitation failures as dealbreakers. The business website highlights pet-friendly policies (cats, dogs up to 55 lbs), a pool, and picnic areas. Several reviews mention prompt response times and grill facilities as positives. However, the reviews that detail pest control involvement show that treatment has not resolved infestations, and multiple reports of uncooperative or confused staff undercut claims of friendly service. Lease termination disputes and parking/security complaints add further friction.

Residents consistently praise Danielle Schoenig and the maintenance team for quick, attentive service. The small community feels safe and quiet, with clean, modern apartments at affordable rent. One recurring note: the laundry facility needs improvement, though management doesn't control that aspect.

Residents consistently praise the office team, particularly Dania and Joann, for going beyond typical help. Maintenance responds promptly to requests, and the pool, bbq grills, and proximity to Walmart and restaurants make the property appealing. One recent complaint about mailroom package theft and shared access codes raises a security concern worth clarifying before move-in.
