Amazing

The Emerson is a wonderful place to live. It’s quiet and the staff are very welcoming. Maintenance is always so efficient and fix issues within 24 hours! They always have community events going on like they served ice cream at the pool. This is my first apartment and I’ve loved living here these past few months !

Wonderful

I’ve lived at the Emerson for 10 months so far and I’ve really enjoyed the experience. I have 2 pitbulls so finding renter friendly options to often banned breeds is HARD! I’ve never had an issue with my dogs there and the amenities really make me enjoy the space. Apartments are also usually sooo loud but I’ve never once had a noise problem with any of my neighbors. I really do recommend leasing with The Emerson!

Very good!

i love the emerson! we have had a few issues, here though. our internet was out for like a month during finals, our air had been messed up, water in the bathroom, ants, and leaks. HOWEVER, things like the internet was not the fault of the emerson and they were quick to respond and fix the issues! they don’t have any dog restrictions, which is amazing and every apartment complex should implement! carrie, shea, and cooper are some of the best people i’ve met! they’re all so sweet and genuinely... care about you. i would definitely recomend the emerson to anyone looking for an apartment with a lot of amenities for a good price!!
