Orchards of Newburgh Apartments

I’ve been here for 6 years now. The staff will go above and beyond for you. This is literally home for my family and I. I’m glad to still be a resident !!! Come join our community !!

I've found living here to be quite good. It’s a peaceful and quiet spot, which I really appreciate. The pool area is nice for relaxing, and having a laundry room onsite is definitely convenient. Also, the management and maintenance team are helpful and respond quickly when needed.

I've lived here for 17 years and the staff has always been kind and very helpful! If want to live in a beautiful community with friendly staff then come to the Orchards of Newburgh!

Do you do laundry? Guess what, it won't happen here. They can raise your rent without reason and none of it actually goes to new appliances. And even though it's common knowledge that basically every laundry machine is broken, the management had the audacity to leave a sign up that says "Use at your own risk". That is the care that Orchards shows to its tenants.

If you have a pet, save yourself money by never telling the office. they will never find out. There is dog poop everywhere on the… grounds, despite the fact that they tell you they can identify the type of dog that made the poop from some DNA test thing. It's all just talk. They wouldn't even know I had a dog without my honesty.

Bugs are atrocious on the grounds and in the windows, and crawl through the AC units.

The AC/heat are electric and draw a LOT of power, so your DTE bill is going to be hefty unless you like being uncomfortable.

Perhaps the worst crime they've committed, though, is the negligence of appliances. My toilet supply line burst early morning on a Sunday, spewing water everywhere. The shutoff valve would not turn (needed replacing). The water damaged my carpet and leaked into the neighbors apartment beneath me. Their "emergency maintenance" did not come out for maybe an hour. Had I not been home, my entire apartment and my neighbor's would have been flooded and ruined. Water was getting into the lights, so it was dangerous, not just inconvenient.

This is not a safe area, apparently. My bike was vandalized, and speakers were stolen off of my neighbor's bike. there are no cameras and break-ins happen a lot.

I held off saying anything for a while. I'm stuck with these people until January. but if I can prevent one more unlucky soul from landing here (especially with these probably fake five star reviews), then I have to say something.

However, if you like that 1999 aesthetic, musty/wet clothes, and waking up to a toilet flood, this might be the place for you! Read More
