Ontario Place

I can say with confidence Ontario is the best apartment complex I have ever lived at (and I’ve lived at a fair amount). When we were looking to downsize recently, we toured roughly 10 other apartments around Omaha and came to the conclusion that nothing we saw beat Ontario Place.

First, the apartments themselves are laid out so well—the kitchen and living rooms are spacious and open, the bedroom closets are huge and often have built-in storage, and the giant bathtubs are better than what you’d… get in most homes. I also appreciate having a full-size washer and dryer, which seems to be a rarity in most apartments around town. One underrated aspect you wouldn’t know about unless you live here is that the utility bills are quite low; the buildings seem to be “overbuilt” as far as energy efficiency goes. On a related note, they also block outside noise pretty well. The first building we lived in was right next to I-80 and the noise was only noticeable when everything else was silent, and even then it was faint.

Just as importantly, the people who work here are phenomenal. Seriously, Gina is the most helpful and professional manager I’ve come across. She knows everyone by name and has a way of making you feel instantly at ease whenever you need to visit the office for any reason. Whether you’re just picking up a package or you’re going through the application/leasing process, she’s always so accommodating. I can’t say enough about her. And the maintenance staff is just as impressive. Greg is prompt to respond to any maintenance issue. I have never had an occasion when a work order I've placed took longer than a day—and many times less than half a day—for Greg to fix. And he is always willing to answer any questions you have while he’s working in your apartment. It’s clear he places top priority on us residents over his other daily duties.

If it isn’t obvious by now, I would highly recommend Ontario Place to anyone looking for an Omaha apartment with a staff that cares about its residents. We have families, young professionals, college students, and senior residents that have lived here for many years. After living here for over a year myself, I can see why. The floor plans are generous and functional, the central location and proximity to I-80 is convenient, and the management and maintenance staff are truly top notch. Don’t hesitate to give this place a look! Read More
