2 years and wonderful
I’ve really enjoyed living here. The lake view and balcony are a big plus, and the pools and playground are great amenities. The office staff is always nice and helpful, and maintenance and the grounds crew do a great job keeping everything up. If you like hearing the sounds of nature, this is a peaceful place to live.

Good location
Jefferson lakes is set in a good location of Baton Rouge close to the mall, hospitals, and plenty of shops for eating and shopping. The complex has pull access and they keep maintenance up and running. You dont have a lot of people hanging out which I love. I have quiet neighbors and management tries to keep everyone up and up with following certain rules.
