Awesome place to live

I’ve really enjoy my experience living at Creek Apartments. It truly feels like a place I can call home. The amenities are great, the community is beautiful, and everything is kept clean and welcoming. I also want to give a special shoutout to Hope and Jen in the front office. They are always so kind, welcoming, and willing to help whenever I need anything. They make such a positive difference and genuinely care about the residents. I’m very happy to call Creek Apartments home!

great price and great team!

I loved the creek at forest hills. The team here was so amazing and accommodating! The maintenance was super fast, and the office and leasing agents were always there whenever I needed ANYTHING at all. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, affordable, and comfortable living situation.

Friendly and respectful

Neighbors mind their own business in a good way and it gets real quiet at nights. U just hear the owls in the woods. It feels very secluded like you are out of the city but still in a good location where it’s convenient to travel. Airport isn’t far. Food is close. Costs are affordable. People at the office are the real mvps and communication isn’t an issue to solve any problems. Routine pest control, safe parking, fast internet package with spectrum. Plenty of privacy. Everything feels like a… home and not a shack in the wall.
