Brooks Apartments

My wife and I moved here across the country in July and were anxious about moving into another apartment. For the prices we were used to before, this place really is a luxury apartment deal at a not unreasonable rate. We've been given prompt and attentive service since move-in day. Overall, we've been very happy and plan to stay here until we buy our first house. Staff is quick to respond to maintenance requests. During the summer, lawns were cut every week and during the winter the… sidewalks have been shoveled and salted immediately, often several times a day. The commons areas inside are vacuumed and swept each week so we always feel comfortable hosting family and friends. There are gyms in two of the three buildings I believe, and they are well maintained and clean, with excellent brand new equipment for a variety of fitness needs. All the appliances in the units are two years old at most. There is a substantial amount of storage space in the kitchens, with beautiful granite countertops and a breakfast bar. Our only complaint is that they don't offer recycling pickup, so we have to take all our recycling to the center down the road ourselves. This may be something still in the works since this is a relatively new place. Residents are mostly young professionals, Dow interns, college students, etc. We did have one family with young kids live above us for a time, but they bought a house and moved out within a month or two. While we were concerned about not having reserved parking spaces, it has not been an issue. There is always ample parking due to the size of the lot. Lots of sidewalks connecting to the neighborhoods surrounding, so it's a beautiful area to be in if you like walking. Just a 5 minute drive from Kroger and the downtown area too. Read More
