I would strongly recommend looking into other newly built complexes instead of this one. While living here, my partner experienced multiple break-ins to his car. When we reported this to management, nothing was done--no follow-up emails, no communication, and no visible safety measures put in place to protect residents. We used the gym regularly, and the facility itself was nice. However, there were multiple occasions where we saw unhoused individuals using the showers. This raises serious concerns about building security--how are non-residents accessing a gated community? Maintenance was also handled poorly. Sections of the complex were frequently closed with only two days' notice, whether for parking lot repaving or hallway painting. This lack of advance notice made it difficult to plan, especially for residents with pets or work schedules. On top of this, my partner's car was towed, costing us $500, despite the parking permit being clearly visible on the floor of the vehicle. When we raised this with management, again, nothing was done. We were even told at the tow yard that this has happened to other residents before. If this is a recurring issue, it's unclear why management hasn't taken steps to prevent it. Overall, the price did not match the experience, and the lack of responsiveness and security made living here incredibly frustrating.

I've stayed quiet long enough, but this place is seriously lacking when it comes to maintenance and…read morebasic communication. Today the laundry room was locked all day with no notice which is super inconvenient when residents rely on it. This has happened before with the pool too locked during posted hours, so people are literally jumping the fence to access amenities we're already paying for. The laundry room is an absolute health hazard. Dust, grime, spiderwebs, mold, and dirt everywhere. It's clear it hasn't been cleaned in months. For over 5 months, there was no porter and whoever was supposed to be in charge just let it go. This isn't just gross it's dangerous, especially for families with kids or anyone with respiratory issues. Photos attached show just how bad things have gotten. Dirty machines, mold inside washers, filthy windows, layers of dust. We deserve better than this level of neglect. If you're considering moving in do your research first.

ROWAN APARTMENTS My…read moreboyfriend currently lives in this apartment complex and it is super nice, spacious, and decent. The walk in closest is amazing, and all the amenities are great. The pool, hot tub, gym, and club room are great options to have and opened at specific hours! The location however lost a star for me, there's a bus station right across the street and a parking lot next to the building, there are lots of noises and homeless people at night wandering, so it gets a bit disturbing at night. The area is not the safest, however, this complex does a great job with the garage being only opened to those who have a fob/key. Overall, this place has a great price for the space and kitchen, but the area is not the safest.

It should be noted that whenever we lodged a complaint about the neighbors I mentioned, the front office was always quick and responsive, and the maintenance team has been as well, usually out at our apartment the next day to fix whatever issue we have. The fitness center leaves a lot to be desired, as they only have a few machines and no barbells at all. The dumbbell set only goes up to 50lbs. as well, and one of the 35lbs dumbbells is missing. It's pet friendly, and they provide waste bags for dogs which is nice. Yes, it's pricey to live here, but you have to know that going into it. It's unfair to the complex to move in and then complain about the cost of everything when you knew beforehand that that was the case. All in all, it's been a pleasurable experience with the green scenery, beautiful trees, and our lovely apartment with its vaulted ceilings. All of our friends and family love coming over, and we love hosting. I would recommend this complex to anyone.

I co-signed on an apartment for my son and his friend while they were in college…read more I recently moved out of state and so I was not there to help them pick the apartment but we had rented other ones with no issue so I didn't think much of it. The hidden fees were ridiculous. They say everything is included but quote a base rent and then over charge for everything. Both boys and myself believed that a 12 mos lease was signed but at 9 months we are getting notifications that it is expiring. I am trying to contact them incessantly...with no response. I emailed multiple times, called every number (oh yeah there are multiple numbers that nobody ever answers) and my son is going to the leasing office which always has a sign that says they are out showing apartments. I finally got ahold of someone after almost 3 weeks and they said no problem they can extend the 2 mos. He told me that the rent would be more that month because it charged daily but then would go back to original amount. Of course that didn't happen and the rent went up $225 and not surprising nobody will respond. When they are actually supposed to move out the amount due was incorrect and they were being charged for full months of parking, internet, mail etc and nobody would change the amounts. I asked that a late fee be waived since I emailed multiple times before the rent was due and they didn't fix it and the leasing manager said he would "make a note" until I heard from some. Again, they didn't fix it and charged a $50 late fee. Upon move out they are charging $400 for repainting of entire apartment, $220 for trash removal (but apartment was clean) and multiple other charges. One room would require repainting but that is due to the bathtub getting stuck on and running the hottest water possible for hours. They filed a maintainace report right away but it took many hours for anyone to come and there for the steam caused damage to the walls. I never write bad reviews because everyone has an off day but this is the ABSOLUTE worst customer service and shady business i think I have ever seen. DO NOT MOVE HERE! THERE ARE PLENTY OF BETTER OPTIONS NEARBY.

There are lots of eucalyptus trees and plants all around and we have quiet neighbors. We find the floor plan for the two of us & the dog in our two bedroom apartment to be very spacious. The pool and Jacuzzi area are so nice to relax at and well maintained. I've had to walk the dog in the middle of the night and every area is well lit. There are designated dog areas with bags and a cute dog park area. With a two bedroom apartment we got a two car garage (which I have to share with the neighbor) and one designated parking spot. If you have more cars you probably need to park on the street. If we ever have a slight issue maintenance is always on top of it. The office staff is very accommodating also; when I didn't have a printer and still needed to conduct business they helped me out. I love the long patio and the oriole's and hummingbirds that come and visit our feeders. We have also seen goats twice being corralled on the hill of the next door apartments (I'm not sure where they come from) and three hawks in nearby trees. I highly have enjoyed living here and recommend it.

The Pines is in West Escondido which is by far the best/safest part of Escondido. The pines is also gated, which was a big plus to me. There are only like 12 or 14 units there and everybody knows each other. My husband knew 3 or 4 people from Westminster Sem who were living there at the same time as us and I made some lifetime friends there! The couple who own/manage the pines are sooo nice and they always took good care of us. The apartment was beautiful and central A/C was nice during San Diego summers :) The only thing I would have wanted was a gas stove for cooking! :( But seriously...do your homework and make sure you aren't moving somewhere dangerous!! Check the crime maps online first! I did and there was NO crime at all when we lived at the pines! My car was always safe and we could even leave our stuff outside! I would highly recommend the pines and I wish we didn't have to move out!!

The owners were wonderful. Everything was well taken care of. We moved in on a budget, and thankfully, the owners did not give us crazy rent increases every year. This was a big relief, because we moved from our previous two places because we got huge rent increase notices each tim our lease was up - which is common for San DIego, but not at the pines. :) The pines quiet and small and everyone really gets to know everyone. As a woman, I place a high value on having a personal sense of safety, which I definitely had. Also, there was ever any crime while we were there. They have a huge gate which is automatic and always stays closed which probably helped. I could leave my bedroom windows open in the summer and my car was always safe at night! The pines is just a really beautiful place. I don't think you can get much better in the area. I don't have any complaints.
