Reserve at Prairie Centre Apartments

My son recently relocated to this property, and I must admit, I had my concerns. The area is rapidly developing, with easy access to Chicago via the Metra train. Coming from a small farming town where my husband and I know our neighbors well and hardly ever lock our doors, we initially felt anxious about his move. However, our worries quickly dissipated!

My husband and I had the chance to visit our son at Prairie Centre, and we were truly impressed by the beauty and comfort the property... provides. His apartment, situated on the second floor, felt like a private oasis. The buildings feature secure double-door entrances and a monitored mailroom with video surveillance. The hallways were fresh, clean, and quiet, making me feel like I was in a resort in Mexico as I walked through.

The apartment itself was stunning, complete with stainless steel appliances, beautiful countertops, and flooring. He also enjoys his spacious balcony for his array of plants and flowers. The clubhouse is three stories high and impressively large, offering a variety of amenities. It includes a reasonably sized gym, a movie theater, a yoga studio, and a lounge area with pool and card tables, all overlooking a gorgeous pool.

As a mother, I began to feel more at ease witnessing the safety features in place. Every door was secure and required key access, there were emergency police pull alarms on the walls for urgent situations, and I noticed several police officers patrolling the property during our brief stay.

One evening, I had the opportunity to meet Nadia, the property manager. I introduced myself, fearing she might think I was an overly protective mom, but she greeted me with grace and understanding. She, too, has young adult children and took the time to reassure me by sharing insights about the additional safety features the property offers. Thank you, Nadia, for your comforting words.

If you're seeking reassurance about your college-aged child living in this property, look no further. This place is impeccable, with clean and quiet apartments. The property manager was wonderful to talk to and ensured our son could reach out to the office with any questions. Unlike many other apartment complexes in the area, which rely on answering services, having a real person – a fellow mom – made me feel much more secure. This property truly cares for its residents beyond just being paying customers. Read More

From a Teen Living at The Reserve at Prairie Centre:

Living at Prairie Centre has been an amazing experience for me and my younger brother! My parents live in separate place now - I'm sensitive and my brother doesn't like change. So when we learned that it was going to take longer than we thought to move into a house my Dad told us we would be getting to live in a new complex with a lot of extras. Our unit is very close to the Geneva Commons and downtown Geneva - I love having girlfriends sleep... over to enjoy the theater and pool. I love all the people that live here and adults that run the building. I've always felt so safe and protected. I love going to the gym to workout, especially when its cold outside! No matter why you are thinking of living here, I have to tell you, it wont disappoint! Read More

Living in this apartment complex has been a generally positive experience. The amenities are a highlight, providing a comfortable and convenient lifestyle. The staff is friendly and responsive, addressing concerns promptly. The location is convenient, with easy access to essential services. However, there have been occasional maintenance issues, though they were resolved in a timely manner. Noise levels can be a concern at times, impacting the overall tranquility. Despite these minor drawbacks,... the community atmosphere is welcoming, and the grounds are well-maintained. Parking availability is satisfactory, and security measures provide a sense of safety. Rent is reasonable considering the location and facilities. Overall, it's a solid 4-star experience, offering a good balance of comfort and convenience with room for minor improvements. Read More

One of the closest and cheaper options close to my place of work. Amenities include a gym and exercise room I frequent, as well as a social lounge I hope to utilize more often and host future events. Staff are very friendly and easy to contact in case of any questions

Things to be aware of: there is a decent amount of construction occurring as the area expands. Also, majority of payments are handled via physical checks, rather than online payments.

I’ve been living here since they opened and no complains! The management are so easy to deal with and maintenance are very friendly!
