There's not many sidewalks, so it isn't particularly "walking-friendly", but there's plenty of folks walking on the roads, and there's a dog park, too. The gym is small but it's got the basics.

do not move here do not sign a lease…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but after moving out, I honestly feel people should know what they're paying for here before signing a lease. The rent at this complex is wildly overpriced for what you actually get. I paid around $2,200/month for a one-bedroom apartment under 700 sq ft, and it honestly felt more like an extended-stay hotel than a home. They raised rent repeatedly while offering almost no real improvements or amenities. The "amenities" are incredibly misleading. Carpet is literally listed as an amenity on their website, which says everything. When we first moved in, residents were told we'd have access to the basketball and tennis courts, but then access became restricted. The clubhouse was constantly unavailable after certain hours due to vague "paperwork" excuses, and the pool closed absurdly early during summer months. For the amount residents are paying, there is very little actual value. The buildings themselves are inconvenient and poorly maintained. No elevators, disgusting hallways at times, minimal privacy on balconies, and dog waste frequently left around the property despite the luxury image they try to sell. Management was another major issue. Some staff members were polite, but others came across as dismissive, snooty, and unwilling to listen to resident concerns. It often felt like tenants had no voice despite paying premium prices. The move-out experience was what finally pushed me to leave this review. I cleaned my apartment thoroughly from top to bottom because I specifically wanted to leave it in excellent condition. I was then accused of pet urine damage throughout the apartment, which is simply not true. Anyone who knows my dogs knows they are house-trained. It honestly felt like they were looking for reasons to keep deposits and charge additional fees. Also be very careful reviewing lease dates and renewal timing. The lease structure felt intentionally designed to push residents into paying beyond a standard month-end cycle, which can create extra costs when moving out. At the end of the day, replacing carpet between tenants -- especially in pet-friendly apartments charging luxury-level rent -- should not come as some shocking expense to management. That's part of maintaining rental property. Charging premium prices while cutting corners everywhere else leaves a bad impression. This place markets itself as luxury living, but in my experience it did not deliver luxury service, luxury amenities, or luxury treatment of residents.

I wanted to simply remove my original YELP review of this place. I could not. So here it goes…read more My husband and I visited my son a lot because we all live in Cville. We loved where he was at Belvedere. Then the neighbor from down under moved in and made his life so unbearable, he was forced to move out. Such a shame that nothing was done and we were the bad guy in the situation. Too much noise with the footsteps on the carpet. Need to leave the pee in the toilet and not flush - ever because it disturbs the queen who lives beneath my son. Do not take showers at night or when it might disturb her because the pipes squeak. Anthony came to my son's apartment, checked everything out and NONE of this was happening. (the squeaks of the shower pipes, the squeaks of the toilet, the boards of the floor) There were things discussed that were going to be put in place to make it more pleasant for him to live there in peace. It never happened. She won!!. We have had to go through the pain of finding a different spot, and make all the arrangements of moving etc...... Leaving a place that was such a find we thought. So know this. If someone has a dog that continually barks like this woman did and NONE of us ever made a peep about this annoying thing - nothing will be done about it. BUT if you leave your garbage can out and it even LOOKS like it might be too heavy you will get slapped with a warning of a $50 fine. Such petty things that mean so much to this office, but the BIG disturbances mean nothing. BEWARE.
