Just moved here about 2 months ago and I'm loving our apartment. Super cozy and cute for my husband…read moreand I and love how modern the apartment looks. Caitlin who works at the office is soo easy to communicate with as well as Ron who is in charge of maintenance. There has been a lot of noise lately because of all the stuff being done to the apartments but I know that won't last. It's a pretty small and quite community and you don't ever see anything shady or suspicious happen around the neighborhood. The pool hasn't been so clean lately but it's also because of all the work that is being done on the outside of the apartments. Totally recommend these apartments.

Avoid this place! Been here for over 3 years and really had no issues until moving to another unit…read more Upon move in we found out that the stove doesn't work properly to even boil water; the stove top coil also exploded and put a hole through our stainless steel pan also burning my husband's hand. The washer leaks water on the floor, dryer makes this crazy sound, cockroaches found on a weekly, shower caulking is cracked, you can't have the microwave on and the toaster going at the same time or the electricity turns off lol, paint splattered over countertops/toilet handle/towel rack, inside of the dishwasher is rusty, and the list goes on. I wish I was making stuff up cause there are so many things that are wrong here. At first, I wasn't too concerned cause maybe mgmt/maintenance had a lot on their plate and just didn't work on the unit thoroughly before move in. So I put in maintenance requests thinking that they'd come out and just fix the issues without a problem. Not only did they take forever to come out but also poorly fixed things and labeled it "normal" to still have a stove that exploded and doesn't boil water or a dryer that is squealing. They haven't even fixed a quarter of the things I've asked and it's been almost 2 months since move in. TLDR: Property is getting old and management is doing a poor job of upkeep. If you're looking for newer or updated apartments, just spend the extra dollar and go somewhere else.

Our rent just went up, as it does. What did we get that increases the value of our money? A new…read moreneighbor with dogs that bark and snarl incessantly. I'm not sure how the neighbors directly next door deal with it. These dogs are locked outside and the owners will let them bark forever, and these noisy mutts take full advantage. I'm not sure what kind of dogs they are, but they sound medium size. On behalf of the neighborhood, I think I'm going to file a complaint with the land lord or make a call to the animal shelter. It's way too hot to lock your dogs outside and make them someone else's problem

I rented an apartment for 22 Months from FPI Management / at lakeshore Meadow apartments on 2080…read moreSylvan way Lodi . When you move out they make you pay your final cost through a collection agency. Even though I was always paid rent on time and was a model tenant. My ending balance was $195.95 and I asked to pay that day at the office. They will not allow it and make you pay through a collection agency like you are some loser who doesn't pay their bills. This is a horrible management company who does not maintain their property's. Just drive through the parking lot and it will tell you the story about FPI. I would avoid all FPI managed property's.

This is probably one of the best apartments communities to live in in Lodi! I was in Lodi on a…read moretemporary travel assignment and my company put me up at The Fountains. The apartments are central to everything you might need (i.e. shopping, banking, hospital, entertainment, transport etc.). The gated community is secure and the area is quiet with, no major noise problems. The tenants are mostly working professionals, with a few small families with kids. The grounds are well maintained and there is ample parking. The pool areas are maintained and inviting. The gym has some good equipment, but one or two machines need to be replaced as they are non-functioning. I also seemed to always miss the paper towels in the changing area/restroom in the gym. The garbage/recycling area is close to all units and the mailboxes are right by the pool area. My second floor unit was a very spacious 2/2. There is ample storage throughout and very nice sized walk-in closets in both bedrooms. The living room area is nicely sized with a fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and good natural light from large windows. The patio is small, but serves the purpose. You can fit a small table and 2 chairs there. The kitchen has very nice cabinet space and all appliances (refrigerator, stove/over, microwave, dishwasher) are Whirlpool brand. The appliances are older (early 90's), but functional. The gas stove and oven worked well and there is a nice size box-style window that you can open, as well as sliding glass door off of the dining area. The unit also has a Whirlpool brand washer and dryer (both also from early 90') that are in the hallway past the second bedroom. There is nice cabinet space above the washer/dryer. There is new carpet throughout and the walls are nicely neutral. There is a ceiling fan in the dining area and central air conditioning and heat. The maintenance staff are friendly and efficient. The online maintenance request form is very easy to use. I needed a small part replaced on the dishwasher and was able to use the online system in the morning to request a repair. When I got home that evening my repair was completed. The property staff are very helpful, available, and friendly. Though it was short, I enjoyed my stay at the Fountains and would recommend this apartment.

First thing's first, I love the maintanence here. We needed our dryer, our dishwasher and our spare…read moreshower water temp knob fixed and each was fixed same day. They don't give you any grief about it either, they're happy to help. There are some lovely tenants here. It's nice. There are families here too. Everyone keeps to themselves and are mostly quiet. As for a few of our neighbors here, they seem to have signed a different rental agreement than we did...I'm pretty sure it states that if noise you are making in your own unit is audible in a neighboring unit, you are being too loud and is unacceptable. I believe it says that there is no smoking in the units as well. Both of our downstairs neighbors are problematic. One has a sound system that he likes to use at all hours of the day and even as late as midnight on a couple occasions. I have called about this issue and was given attitude by the front desk as if we don't pay money to live here and have a right to complain about our neighbors being a nuisance. Our other downstairs neighbor smokes weed in his apartment. Every time he smokes in his unit, the smell comes up the shared wall (our master bedroom and master bathroom wall) and makes it smell disgusting in both those rooms. And all I was told when I called in to complain about this was "I've been by there a few times and have never smelled anything, but we'll give him a courtesy call." I can name two other units where I've SEEN someone smoking weed (a bong sitting in your window sill while you're hacking a lung up with music blaring and standing outside your apartment just give it away) and smelled it too so there was no mistaking it. All I ask is that the front desk cut the attitude and do something when asked to assist in resolving an issue that rightly needs to be dealt with. Our rent is going from $925 to $1100...that's a huge jump in rent that honestly, we can't budget for, but they need their money I guess... Also, there's a homeless man that somehow manages to get into the gates and digs through all of our dumpsters. The police have come by a few times but he still comes almost every night. So taking the trash out at night is definitely out of the question after he scared the daylights out of me standing IN the dumpster I was trying to chuck a heavy trash bag into. I'd take my rent money elsewhere if at all possible.
