Honestly, this is the best living experience. No complaints about my apartment. It's in a good area close to shopping, next to a school. The girls in the leasing office are amazing. *Chef's kiss.* They literally go out of their way to help. The Maintenance team responds quickly, the same day. I'm glad my friend referred me here, it's a hidden gem. :)

Love The Lakes!
I have lived here for about 9 months and I can't wait to renew when my lease is up this year. The grounds are so beautiful and well maintained. Everyone here is welcoming and I have the nicest neighbors! The office and maintenance staff are very responsive and I feel secure and comfortable living at these apartments. I highly recommend living at The Lakes!

RUDE
The ladies who work in the office are the rudest in the area. If you walk into that office, expect to be talked down to.

Do not move in here
Bad area of town and you can hear almost everything through the walls.

Beware
These apartments are very dated. Cabinets, appliances, outlets were in poor condition. Cockroaches were a problem. Management will try to bully you so if you feel you are right on an issue stand your ground. Utilities paid with rent are high (averaging $120 or more per month excluding electric) and there is no detail of what they are for. Don't expect any of your deposit back on move out and they will charge you a huge amount on your final bill to replace the carpet, $750 in our case.
