*WARNING - READ THIS BEFORE YOU APPLY!*…read more I am extremely disappointed with Hudson Bishops Creek apartment complex and their deceptive practices regarding their location. It is truly disheartening to see a company stoop so low as to misrepresent their proximity to the beach on multiple platforms, including Google Maps, Yelp, and their very own website. Upon arrival at the location, Hudson Bishops Creek was nowhere to be found. I quickly realized that the claim of being just a few blocks away from the beach was nothing but a false promise. After doing some digging and asking around at local establishments where I might find the new apartment complex being built in the area, I found that the complex is actually a good 10-minute drive away from the coastline. Rather than being located right on the main island a few blocks from Surf City Beach, it is all the way back on the other side of the bridge to the island behind Walmart in an unfavorable tourist trap area. The difference means that you cannot walk or bike over to the beach. You must drive across the bridge that gets backed up with traffic and pay to park if you can even find parking. This deliberate misrepresentation of location is not only misleading but also a breach of trust. As someone who prioritizes living near the beach, I feel utterly disgusted by this blatant attempt to lure prospective tenants with false advertising. The purpose of listing your business on platforms like Google Maps and Yelp is to provide accurate information to help people make informed decisions. Sadly, Hudson Bishop Creek has completely disregarded this responsibility. It is incredibly frustrating to invest time and energy in finding a place that meets specific criteria, only to be duped by misleading claims. By misrepresenting their location, Hudson Bishop Creek has shown a lack of integrity and respect for potential residents. I strongly advise anyone considering this apartment complex to think twice before believing their claims. Don't fall for the illusion of a beachside paradise, as you'll be sorely disappointed when you realize the truth. If they are willing to misrepresent their location, then they probably are making other false claims as well. Overall, my experience with Hudson Bishop Creek has been nothing short of a letdown. They have tarnished their reputation by resorting to dishonest tactics, and I cannot in good conscience recommend this complex to anyone. I hope this review helps others avoid making the same mistake I did. I drove over two hours to see this place, wasting valuable time and money. I know many people who have moved to the NC coast from all over the US, some having to invest in application and move-in costs as well as a deposit before ever seeing their apartment or home in person. I have in the past done this myself even. I could not imagine moving across the country and finding upon arrival that my apartment is nowhere to be found at the address provided, especially having invested so much time and money as well as having signed a lease. One would think that they could trust an apartment complex managed by such a large corporate company like Bell Partners, but sadly that is not the case at all. See attached photos for screenshots highlighting the true location of this apartment complex versus the false location provided by Hudson Bishops Creek on Google Maps, Yelp, and their own website. It is clear that there was intent to provide a false location and that this was not an accident as they listed their property in 3 different places on the internet at this false location, and the false location is even pinned on the site of an empty lot indicating that an apartment complex could be in the process of being built there.

The first was at Hawthorne at the station hats. We lived in Greensboro North Carolina for over 30 years. My son graduated from Raleigh North Carolina. We lived in Cary and I decided to retire from Nursing after 30 years and we moved to Hawthorne as a station with ever seeing the apartment, but just talking to the staff and when we got there, we were so excited we were living on the courtyard and a beautiful two bedroom two bath apartment.

They even invited us down for all the meals that the surrounding restaurants brought them food and they were just in the process of building when we got here we were some of the very first and were greeted with open arms And we left everyone here summer gone and we love them deeply. We feel so secure here welcomed here and wanted here we have the best gym, a fantastic salt, water pool. We have amenities like the Christmas party last year and the Christmas party this year catered by Casey's buffet. It was so much fun and delicious and we're looking forward to next year And the year after we chose a smaller apartment here because there's just the two of us now and we love it it's like a little cottage inside.

If you enjoy predatory management practices with a failure to communicate, old, overpriced and…read morebug-infested units then Autumn Hall is the place for you. This complex is priced at the upper echelon of apartments in Wilmington, however the units are old and outdated masked by well-kept amenities and pretty landscaping as you drive in. On top of this, the management is predatory and fails to communicate effectively and sometimes even at all with their tenants. On day one living here we found over 15 German cockroaches that had completely infested the apartment. It was not in a clean condition and smelled of dirt/bugs as well. Management did respond by placing traps and apologizing, however we would go on to kill numerous roaches daily throughout the entirety of the lease. Our apartment was full of other bugs too like "rolly pollys", beetles, spiders and other insects until the winter cold hit. There were a few damages around the unit as well right when we moved in as well as an odor of dirt. Luckily we recorded these things or we would've been paying to replace them at the end of our lease. Perhaps the worst part of the experience is the communication from the office staff. As our lease neared our end date, I noticed high upcoming charges on our account statement. I reached out multiple times via email/phone calls and was completely ignored. After more than a week passed, I finally did some digging of my own and realized on the lease there is a required "60 days written notice" that you need to give before your lease end date or you are automatically enrolled on a monthly lease and your rent doubles. We were still 30 days out from our move-out date, but those days had already been added onto our lease at twice the rent rate. I instantly went in-person to deliver our notice so we wouldn't be charged for anything else and finally spoke to someone. They offered no apology, possible resolutions and a bare minimum explanation of the situation. The "notice" they had given had come months prior in an email similar to ones that are sent weekly with a misleading subject line containing one sentence at the bottom explaining what would happen. This entire ordeal was an extremely predatory way to make thousands of extra money off of us and the lack of communication was the biggest issue here only proving that. I understand the notice is in the lease, but as a property manager it is your responsibility to respond to your tenants and communicate to them- it is the bare minimum. Following this incident, I again followed up via email/phone calls politely asking if there was anything that could be done. I was again ignored for over a week until one of the property managers finally mustered up the confidence to write a short, AI-generated email response back to me. If you are going to take extra thousands from your tenants at least have the decency to return a phone call and have a conversation. As I write this I am still being ignored while asking about the process to receive our deposit. Communication and a clean living space are the bare minimum tasks- Headwaters cannot provide either. Do not live here unless you enjoy overpaying for an outdated, bug infested apartment that has an office staff that is scared to communicate with their tenants.
