a peaceful home right outside of the city

I’ve lived and worked (maintenance) at a few complexes, and I must say that Lakeshore Ridge does it right.

The quality is top notch. The amenities are well placed and well designed. The complex is very quiet, safe, eye catching in a subtle and more mature way, well kept. The staff is very kind and dependable. My neighbors have been great. I didn’t think I had neighbors at one point, a testament to how chill most people are and the quality of the buildings. From what I’ve noticed, this is a...
mature community no matter the age, race, hometown.

There is a few gas stations/convenience stores right outside of the complex, great selection of chain/local restaurants just a few minutes away, Red Mountain is just across the main road, a great movie theater less than 5 minutes away, good shops, several good gyms, and most importantly a Publix less than five minutes away.

I looked around thoroughly at other complexes before moving in and looked even more as I am nearing my renewal date, but no place has matched my personal preferences like Lakeshore Ridge has for my price range.

BEWARE

I signed a lease here with a promised move-in date, but it was delayed multiple times. When I finally got into the unit, I was disappointed to find that the kitchen and bathrooms were in poor condition and clearly in need of major updates. The shower in the primary bathroom leaks constantly and desperately needs retiling.

It’s obvious they’re just putting temporary patches on outdated units while continuously raising rent prices. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, and I make sure to...
tell people exactly that.

To make matters worse, when I planned to move out at the end of my lease, I discovered I’m required to pay additional fees due to vague "fine print" buried in the lease agreement. This feels like a deliberate tactic to squeeze more money out of tenants who are already frustrated.

Rather than invest in meaningful improvements to retain residents, management seems more focused on charging existing tenants extra to make up for high vacancy rates. It's incredibly disappointing.

Management is nonresponsive to issues, not secure or safe

This apartment complex does not make any effort to ensure security as fences are broken and never repaired and the gates are broken more often than working. There are many college students here, being typical college students. Cars are constantly broken into and even our apartment with a 2nd floor balcony was attempted to be broken into twice but thankfully, my alarm scared them away. There are no security cameras and mangements standard answer is to call the police. Many residents smoke... weed in the complex and although the contract states that it is not allowed, management will do nothing about it. Our apartment, clothing and furniture constantly smelled of weed and was giving us migraine headaches. No help from management although they were contacted MANY times. The dog poop bags are never filled and residents leave dog poop laying everywhere to contaminate other dogs. Management is plain non responsive to any matters and hard to even reach on the phones. Be ware!

Be Aware

Tried to move in early December '22. Got told my move in date was the 5th. I was moving different cities so I went off of the move in date that we agreed upon. Got Uhaul and came to town. When I arrived I was told the background check was not back yet and was unable to move in but "should be soon" that they get that back. (I move alot and never have had a background check take longer than 48 hours.) I am also moving with a dog so places to stay are limited due to that fact. I called multiple... times the following days checking the status. The only answer I got was "I'm sorry it is taking so long but there is nothing we can do". "We will check on it." No problem. So I waited.. Calling back daily. Same answers. I asked for the contact info for the management company so I could actually get an answer. I was not given any information and was still told, "I'll call them and check." Still nothing. So hundreds of $'s later with hotels and such, and with a full uhaul and no ETA. They said, "It could take 2 more days, it could take 2 more weeks." Eventually, after a full week I quit and went to another apartment. I had the keys and moved in 2 days later to a new Apt. I would give 0 stars if I could. The staff is friendly, but take no responsibility and make nothing happen. I am very happy I went to another complex.

Property Manager at Lakeshore Ridge responded to this review

Thank you for reaching out. We apologize for this inconvenience, however, this situation was out of our control. This was due to the background check results being delayed. We called the company three times to get updates and to try to speed up the... process, but we were unsuccessful. Our company policy is that we must get a completed background check on all applicants before they can move in. If you would like to discuss this further, please reach out to our office at your earliest convenience.
