Cottonwood Creek

It's not a matter of if but how many times will your vehicle be damaged in the parking lot. In just under a year we had 6 breakings including an instance of a catalytic converter theft where the thieves put a gun into the maintenance mans face. The management has no interest in increasing security. They have an attitude like it's cheaper to clean up a dead body out of the lot and hire a new staff member than it is to put in more security measures. Instead the enacted an illegal parking permit... that is not in the terms of our lease threatening residents to comply or they will tow their cars. Just garbage. Read More

Pros: 1) Covered parking, 2) Very little noise gets through the walls, 3) Maintenance: The maintenance workers are quick in responding to complaints. My only complaint is that although they sent out letters stating they had to do work on each apartment, they didn’t give a good time frame. I work nights and luckily I have an additional lock on my door or they would have walked in while I was sleeping. Yes we had a warning, but it was a “We will be working on buildings E, F, and G between the... hours of 0800 to 1500.” Given that I live in Building G, I figured we’d be one of the last ones and was wrong, 4) Gym: It's nice. 5) Dog Areas: They provide doggie poo bags and stations which is awesome. I just wish the residents would use them more. But, I do see maintenance cleaning up the poo quite often. Sucks that they have to, but they are pretty good at keeping up with it. 6) Moving out: This place has received a lot of bad reviews due to high moving out costs, but mine was less that $50. Which, for living there for a year with a puppy, I don’t feel that is bad. 7) Location: This place is very conveniently placed to a lot of things, a mall down the street, easy access to Highway 6, and a ton of stores and restaurants nearby.

Cons: 1) Very little additional parking, 2) Dog Park: The dog park is full of little rocks that my dog would unintentionally eat while playing fetch and the park always wreaked of urine. Hardly anyone would clean up after their dogs even though bags were provided in multiple locations in the park and on the property, 3) Management: I spoke with the managers on multiple occasions for different situations and they sounded helpful and stated they’d keep me in the loop, but never got back to me unless I went back in and speak with them again, 4) Safety: First, when I first moved in there were multiple vehicles being broken into on the complex. The complex did add extra lights, so hopefully that deters the people doing this. Second, my dog was attacked while I was walking him on the property. The dog that attacked mine has attacked 4 times on the property but the property continued to let her live there with the dog due to not documenting anything although it was reported all 4 times.

This apartment complex is close to Larkburger, Whole Foods, Best Buy and within a short driving distance of a local Target. You are also only a few blocks from King Soopers and a King Soopers gas station.
There are plenty of amenities such as a pool, basketball course and covered parking.

Cottonwood Creek is a small gem found on the west side of Littleton, CO. Close to retail, restaurants, and even a Whole Foods store, the apartment complex is nestled in a park like setting and is always clean & well manicured. A nice size workout room & pool will keep you relaxed and in shape! The entire staff is helpful & friendly. Quite the find!

2 bedroom 2 bath and very quiet, pet friendly, covered parking, awesome exercise room, downside is that the A/C is a wall unit like the ones that you find in motel rooms, takes a lot to cool down the whole apartment. My apartment is dated as well (1980's) but the grounds are superb and up to date with gated dog runs for both large and a separate one for small dogs, Basketball court, Outdoor grills and tables, lots of shade trees, very nice updated place to connect to the internet in the office... area.
