Peninsula at Northwood

I love it here. The location is awesome. When management switched, there were some expected growing pains, but I think the office staff of Ashley and Maggie have done a great job building a community here. They have added food trucks, social mixers, door decorating contests, game nights. The maintenance staff of Jason and Dave are seriously top notch and it says a lot that they live on property. They care about it! Yes, the community is older, but that means mature trees and shade instead... of me and my dog dying on walks. The walls are solid and to have a ground floor and nobody above you is awesome. I only plan on moving out of the community if I leave Florida. The floorplans make it feel like you're in a small home, not just an apartment. And if you move here, you'll understand why so many of the residents have been here for years. Read More

My husband and I literally researched every apartment complex in the Dunedin/Palm Harbor/Safety Harbor area. The Enclave at Northwood’s reviews over the past 4 years outshined all the rest. The grounds are beautiful, and the villa and townhouse units seemed much more homey to us than the barrack like design of other apt complexes. In fact, the way the units are staggered offers quite a bit of privacy for each unit especially on the screened-in patios/balconies.

The service that people raved... about in the reviews is totally true. Stacey and Miguel in the office have been nothing but genuinely friendly and helpful. The same can be said for the maintenance crew of Jason and Josh. In all the years we’ve lived in apartments, we’ve never received such quick response on maintenance issues.

Speaking of maintenance issues, there have hardly been any. The apt was spotless when we moved in with very few details needing to be fixed or replaced. As far as noise, it’s totally quiet even with all the dogs who live in the complex. Enterprise dog park is across the street. We haven’t heard our neighbors due to the cement block fire walls, which is smart to have considering these units have fireplaces.

The staff organizes many fun events for the residents, so you get a feel of community. My husband and I are beyond thrilled to find an apt complex like this. We’ve been living here for two months, and it feels like a home not an apartment.

I should also mention, we’ve felt very safe during COVID from our first visit here, to moving in and having a few service calls. They’re taking proper precautions and we’re very happy about that. Read More

We were thrilled with Enclave when we first moved in, and seven months later we still have nothing but good things to say. All of the staff are friendly and make themselves available at a moments notice.
The grounds are beautifully landscaped with many mature oaks, palm trees, and a nice variety of flowering and colorful bushes. The area is clean, and well maintained; and the pools are always clean. Josh and Jason are VERY fast to respond to maintenance requests, no matter how minor the... issue. They are always in a good mood and ensure they don't leave a mess behind when they complete a job. They keep the building exteriors looking great also.
Stacey is the office manager and has great people skills. We stopped in the office yesterday just to say hi since we hadn't seen her for a while.
The complex is quiet and so are the apartments. There are firewalls between the units so you don't hear your neighbor's TV or talking from next door.
This place is close to everything (mall, stores, restaurants, etc), yet still tucked away.

There are never many apartments available here, so if you see one in your price range, get a lease signed asap so you don't miss your opportunity.

We hope our review was helpful to you,

I chose Encleave at Northwood because of the good reviews online, what a mistake it has been! The only thing nice about it is the location and the neighbors. Prior to move in, I asked them a couple times to email me the lease so I can review as I am from out of town; they never sent it to me. I signed the lease on the move in day in a rash base on their email conformation that the unit will be in move-in ready condition. There was no inspection sheet provided to me.

In the last 2 weeks... or so, I had to request 5 work orders because garbage disposal and dishwasher were not working. Dishes came out of the dishwasher dirty and I have to wash it by hand afterward; the dishwasher was not even anchored in to the lower cabinet, every time you pull the racks out, the whole thing came out and tilted off balance. Move in ready? Don't think so. The sink was clogged up when you tried to use the garbage disposal. For 2 weekends, there was dirty smelly waste water in the sink for Saturday and Sunday, Lacey told it was not an emergency till it over flows and they could not get to it till Monday. This last time sink overflowed late in the evening, the cleanup crew did not come till close to 12pm when I was told it will be 1 hour waiting time The maintenance manager explained to me that lettuce leaf was exactly the kind of things I should not put into the disposal and it could not handle things like lettuce or rice because the pipes were built. No, it is not a joke. He was serious!

The maintenance crew did showed up quickly next day each time, however 5 emails to the manager Stacy and 5 work order requests later, my issues were still not resolved. I am left with not able to use the disposal or the dishwasher which is closed to 10 years old. The response from the manager was either “wait and test it out” or just blatantly ignored the issue I bought up.

Yes, the office staff are “nice”, but don’t count on them what you have issues with your unit. If you want to have old and non-functional appliances and plumbing while paying expense rent which entitles you those things, this is the place to move to! Read More

Going on my second year living here. The apartments and amenities are in great shape and clean. Everyone is friendly and the community is very quite, I tend to forget that others live right next to me. Great location, everything you could need is 5 minutes away. Also right between 19 and McMullen which is super convenient for commuting to and from work. Despite these busier highways being so close, you can’t here the traffic at all.
