Management team is always helpful and does fun events like food trucks or tye-die events for kids. They also have snacks and beverages available at all times for residents. Maintenance is great, they answer emergency requests almost immediately. Some maintenance requests are not fulfilled effectively, leading to the same request being submitted multiple times. The resident portal is easy to use and they now offer rent payment plans to help with your financial needs which is very considerate. I think this community is great. I had a year and a half lease and just renewed for an additional year and a half. Overall, I've been very pleased with my time here.

Resting just behind Rochester High School's football field there is not too much traffic except on schooldays at 7:30AM and 2:30PM. Also, there are many conveniences in the immediate vicinity. Within less than a 5 minute drive you have pizza, sushi, Chinese/Italian/American dining, Blockbuster, Rite Aid, Walgreens, CVS. 10 minutes will get you to Target, Meijer, Best Buy, Oakland University, downtown Rochester, and a couple of gyms. Not to mention you are so close to the Detroit concert/sports venues...I have had so many people crash at my pad after such an event. Another great thing is the service. The management has always been almost painfully nice to my fiancee and myself in our time there so far. They allowed us to carry over our security deposit to our new apartment (when we upgraded to a double) and have looked the other way on some of the would-be damages that we were expecting to see deducted from our deposit. For those concerned with aestetics, they keep the grounds and public areas of the buildings tidy and clean. Also, I have made only one maintenance call in 1.5 years but it was made at 5PM one night, and the issue was fixed the next day before 9AM. Pretty damn good turnaround time, I don't care what industry you are in. The apartments are air conditioned and spacious. Square footage and layout varies based on your budget, but they usually have a good selection of rooms to pick from. They allow you to do whatever you want to your apartment so long as you either put them back to the way they were, or pay them to do so (like if you replace the carpet orput a hole in the wall or something like that). Also, if you live there for a year or more they will repaint your walls for free (since they pretty much have to do that anyway). As for utilities, they are pretty standard. You get water price included in your rent. You pay for electricity and gas which given the relative size to a house is not that much. Insulation seems to be good so you won't really be losing much money through the windows. There is Comcast cable TV/Internet available, though you can also get ATT DSL/Telephone service as well. One of the things that is not-so-great is the price. They have pretty attractive 1-year promo contracts but after that. the market price can be a bit painful. Keep in mind that Rochester Hills is not a cheap place to live though and the prices reflect this. Naturally, utility costs will add to this as well. Also, the apartments all have a single washing machine and dryer to serve 8 apartment rooms (singles and doubles). This can have you fighting for the right to wash your clothes sometimes. They are also coin-op so expect to spend more money there too. Finally, this place is really quiet for the most part. There are a good deal of seniors here so if you play any instruments or are looking for a more college-dorm type of experience you might not get that here. Naturally your mileage may vary depending on who your immediate tennants are. As you can see based on my rating, the good far outweighs the bad. As a recent college grad just starting a carreer in the area, I couldn't be happier with my living situation.

I brought the concern to staff and was told that all staff/maintenance people have keys. I asked how they expected people in the pool ares to react if someone with bad intentions came in the area. There are no other ways out! Again they said staff has keys‍*** We are moving due to a job change for my husband. Back in January knowing this was coming, we talked to the office staff who said (prior to us signing the lease) there would be no penalty for breaking the lease after staying for 6 months. We discussed month to month terms and we decided since there wasn't a penalty other than staying for 6 months it worked better financially. My husband stated a new job in March and left the state. The kids and I stayed here to fulfill the 6 months. Now that it's time to leave (in 2 days) I get a statement last week dated 7/1.... That said our fees are $3,900+!!! I don't know that I would have gotten it if I hadn't asked about something else. The office here says they have nothing to do with the lease terms that is corporate. When you call corporate they say it's all done locally. While we have enjoyed our time here, not sure I'd recommend to friends or family. We have lived here for 19 months and have really enjoyed it. Other than the price change between seeing the apartment and the application move in and the 19 months were smooth. Maintenance department is quick and professional. The grounds could be beautiful if they had better grounds maintenance. The weeds are typically 3-4 feet high and EVERYWHERE! There is constant standing water at the drains in the grassy areas. They are doing some exterior painting but painting without fixing the rotten wood isn't going to fix the problem.

Updated review: Overall good place to stay, but it's pretty pricey for apartment living in the area…read more- compares to condo pricing in the area. Pros: Complex is fairly new (built in 2017 I believe) and they recently built another building. They offer locker services for packages as of July 2019, although I keep getting errors when I try to set up my account. The apartments look amazing inside and have updated features for the most part. There's an outdoor pool area and small gym in the inside. Cons: 1. (January 2019) The lease signing process is a pure headache. The first apartment I came to see had cosmetic damage to the appliances and a counter door off the hinges, on the day I was supposed to sign my lease. When I asked about the options for appliances to be swapped out I was told the appliances would not be swapped for cosmetic damage because it's considered normal ware and tear. Due to the floor plan being an open floor plan that was unacceptable, but of course there were more expensive options available, but the Property Management team made no effort to honor the price for the original apartment I applied to. 2. (Updated July 2019) During the winter there was a few weeks where the trash situation got completely out of control - not only was it very dangerous to attempt to take out the trash because the ice in the walkway wasn't melted, but there was trash overflowing in the dumpsters for several days. 3. (Updated July 2019) These are outside apts so no elevator to get to the top level floors (3rd floor) and there's exactly 20 steps to get to each level, (so 40 steps to get to the 3rd floor) it's a pain carrying groceries for sure.
