Well I have lived here about 5 months now, there are good and bad aspects of course, but the bad is…read morestarting to outweigh and win the day here. The property is supposed to be "controlled access" but there are holes cut in the fence by the homeless occupants of a nearby encampment which abuts next to the railroad tracks. The trains are a HUGE nuisance with the noise, fumes and constant idling airbrake releases. Management is told about the holes and they just look away and say "we are getting bids", weeks turn into months and nothing is done. Man gates can be pulled open from the outside, talking about loss of control access. This is supposed to be a non smoking property but the smell of people smoking weed and tobacco hangs in the air like a noxious cloud. Some residents don't even try to hide their smoking. Dogs are allowed to run around off leash and crap without being picked up., even though there are dog parks located on property. I enjoy the activities and some great neighbors.

It's honestly a great little community to live at. The office is relatively helpful when they are…read morethere, maintenance usually resolved our issues promptly, parking is fairly available, and all of our neighbors were so great! The issue I have with them is the move out experience. I deep cleaned the whole place and was still charged a fee of $140 for regular cleaning. Plus $75 to get the carpets cleaned (which I expected after 4 years in the same unit). I took the time to fill in all of the nail holes, but was charged $50 because I did not paint over the nail holes on the accent wall (maintenance never provided me accent wall paint, just the regular). Now I've left a place that I loved for 4 years with a bitter taste in my mouth. I wish them well, but I'd really have to think twice before living here again.

I lived at Springfield for two years and was very happy there. Sarah the manager was wonderful!…read more She really cares about the residents. The property is always well maintained and if we had any problems they were fixed the same day. The thing I liked most about the apartments is that it felt like a community, a place where you could chat with your neighbors. A larger complex is so impersonal. We moved to Arizona to a large complex and while it's nice, it lacks the personal touch of Sarah.

They are not the greediest place I've rented from but definitely not forgiving when it comes to any situation or mishaps with rent or the renters insurance in which if you are late to get the insurance they will charge you 50 dollars mid month and another 50 on the first of the month and every month after that . If you hate spiders or spider webs they are coated in the hallways during that season . I took my own broom and had to clear my area and the hallway before . Last but not least , parking has been an issue on the weekends with no assigned spots for your apartment unless you pay additionally for a car port or a garage . Parking has been so full that there will be no additional spots available throughout the whole very large complex and you end up having to park illegally because you have no other option unless you want to walk a mile . Other than that no issues . I still appreciate my home but if you're moving here for the sauna , I would hesitate .

The good: -Great management. Very kind people that work in…read morethe office who seem to really want to get to know you. They always put me in a good mood when I went in to pay my bills. -Fast maintenance. Literally would put in a request and it would be fulfilled within the next two days. I've never had such fast maintenance in a complex. -Very safe. I have never felt unsafe coming home late at night, or have had any strange encounters with other residents. My car has had no damage done to it, I always felt okay leaving it parked. -No surprises. There were no hidden fees or anything of that sort. Neighbors were respectful. -Overall a great experience! The bad: -Parking can be challenging. We ended up having to pay $25 more for another spot a month because the visitor parking is not always guaranteed. -Small Apartments. Pretty cozy in these apartments! But you get what you pay for. -Meh appliances. Kind of cheap W/D, shelf in kitchen broke, handle on bathroom mirror fell off. Maintenance was always very responsive in these situations though, so I can't really say it was too bad. And again... you get what you pay for, and we had a cheaper unit. -Children can be loud. Overall they are sweet and respectful kids, just be aware if this is something that bothers you.

The building we moved into was new but all buildings and yards are maintained regularly and with high standards. Maintenance has only been needed a few times but the response time was usually within hours! The office has been extremely easy to deal with. Nice personnel!!!! I put multiple exclamations marks because ALL office managers/workers seem truly interested in what they can do to make our stay comfortable and nice. Jay and Bridgette are the two on staff right now and I like them a lot! There is a small gym downstairs filled with modern, very expensive equipment. It has been a life saver for me since I am in a wheelchair and can't do much walking (recumbent bicycle is my go to!) There is a modern elevator which is also perfect for those with mobility problems and sure does help a lot when moving in! It's quiet here--for an apartment complex. I know there are children, but we just don't hear them. Friday night brings visitors, of course, so it gets a little louder but usually everyone respects the legal quiet time -- almost always! I am older, so this is helpful for us old folks. Negatives: Parking is the only thing I struggle with. And it seems to be the only thing most of my neighbors struggle with. I'm handicapped and quite often have to deal with autos taking over the handicapped spots with no placard. (And the usual "I'm gonna use my grandma's placard and park close because it's convenient" even when we NEVER see a handicapped person occupy that auto is prevalent here just as it is in shopping centers.) Unfortunate but I don't have an answer. Weekends we fill up quickly with guests--but what can I say? That's it for now. If you come here, I am a good neighbor to have.

Yes it is required in most apartments that you apply for. What they do not tell you is that they expect you to pay that on a debit/credit card, but they will not be providing a refund back to your debit/credit card. Instead, they will be mailing a check out to you. It has now been 3 weeks since I was not approved and I have been getting the run around about my deposit being returned to me. I have called everyday starting last Thursday. Still no refund. How many other people have you done this to? I mean, if no one says anything do they just pocket the $300 deposit?!? Not, a place I want to rent from. At this point I will be filing with the BBB.
