The "beach" area is pathetic. Took my family and small kids. First thing I noticed right off the…read morebat was broken glass in multiple areas of the beach. Do not walk barefoot in the sand unless you enjoy getting your feet sliced up and a bank breaking hospital bill. I had rubber flip flops on the whole time and told my family to wear theirs. Then, the whole beach area isn't open?? They cordoned off most of the water area, except for one sandbar and maybe 75 feet of water across from the entry sand area to the back area on the other side which narrowed to like 40 feet. The exposed sandbar which you were allowed to walk on had what looked like goose droppings all over it. There is very little space to play or wade without bumping into someone with it being cordoned off, and the section of water that is open just looks like a big bowl of muddy water because the cordoned off area is far away from the waterfall and streams that it doesn't get as much movement aside from people. Between the droppings all over the sandbar, broken glass, close proximity of multiple people in that tiny area, it's just asking for a visit to the hospital due to some infection. You do have to pay a fee per person and idk where that money goes, needs more maintenance. It's a shame, the beach area has potential. We will not be going back.

We asked what time we could come in to set up our decorations for a 50th birthday party and they were only going to give us an hour to set up and they were telling us that we had to pay an extra 50 dollars an hour to come early to set up decorations. As we were taking down the decorations and packing up they turned the lights off on us . They have the worst customer service and the worst attitudes I have ever seen. I advise all of you not to even dare to book this venue. It's not worth it.!!!

The main banquet room could be a lot nicer, in my opinion, if they would make some simple updates to the decor. The window treatments and other decorative accents are very dated. There's ample parking available in a well-maintained lot. However, there was a large pothole in the driveway leading to the venue when I was there for a party in late October 2016. The venue itself boasts a large reception/entrance area, a spacious kitchen and prep room for caterers, plenty of tables with comfortable chairs, and large restrooms. I've never held an event there, so I cannot comment on pricing.

My husband and I have lived here for two years and we are planning on renewing our lease and…read morestaying at least one more. First, the pros: the Porterdale Mill Lofts is a visually stunning and interesting place to live. It's full of history and character. As other reviewers have said, each unit is a little bit different, which adds intrigue among residents; we like to show our units to our friends and comment about unique aspects of our own space. The ceilings are high, the windows are gorgeous, the building is clean and full of friendly people. The staff is out of this world--helpful, welcoming, and quick to respond to any little thing. I've always felt safe here and my husband and I have really enjoyed being here. It feels like home, not like a transitory apartment-living situation. Now onto the cons: I've heard that in A and B buildings, the noise of neighbors is very limited. Unfortunately, this hasn't always been the case in our apartment, located in C. Honestly, though, I think we've just had really loud neighbors who cackle and play video games into the night, usually not even beginning until 10pm. I will say this: when we've called the after hours number, someone has ALWAYS taken care of the issue in only a few minutes' time. Because the ceilings are a bazillion feet high, your power bill will be a bit of a booger. If you control your thermostat, you'll be fine. It just takes a little practice. The pool is nice, but the music is nearly always country and residents (for understandable reasons) do not have access to change the station; bring your ear buds if you aren't a Carrie Underwood fan. Sometimes the "locals" wander in, despite posted signs that declare the pool for "PML Residents ONLY." If you call maintenance, they'll shoo them out in no time flat. Overall, this is a wonderful place to live. Porterdale has been neglected for a long time but is making a comeback. Many of the "cons" associated with living in the Lofts are not the fault of the staff; it's more an issue of location. Many of the locals are curious about the building and can sometimes be annoying, but the Lofts staff cannot be everywhere at once. All entrances are passcode protected and the staff is very responsive. I recommend this place all the time and we are happy to stay here for another year. This is the only apartment-style living arrangement we'd even consider outside of Atlanta.
