North Wood Apartments

I've been a resident of Northwood for 2 years. And I've never regretted my decision. Management and staff are incredibly friendly, accommodating and supportive. Work requests are often completed in a timely fashion. Apartments have modern appeal, well insulated and sound proof. The community itself and surrounding areas offer space for sports, picnics, and other social outings. I often walk my dog down to the nearby park after a long work day where we play frisbee. Not a luxury that you find at… most apartments. For the price you pay, it's well worth it! Read More

This will be my third year living at North Wood, and the way the staff treats residents is for sure one of the major reasons my dog and I stay… not to mention how beautiful North Wood is on its own! If you find the apartments to be a bit pricey, which made me apprehensive initially, then consider that you truly get what you pay for: spacious and comfortable units, a gorgeous and peaceful area away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Ithaca, a couple minutes' drive to groceries or anything… else you may need, and a wonderful staff that works hard to make North Wood an enjoyable place to live. My only complaints would be things outside of their control, like residents not moving their cars after a blizzard when prompted by the office. I cannot emphasize enough how amazing each member of the staff is, always accommodating, welcoming, and understanding; they are responsive to any concerns and genuinely friendly whenever I've interacted with them. I (being extremely frugal) almost went with a different apartment that was lower in price and closer to campus, but I am beyond thankful that I chose North Wood. I've always felt safe in this quiet community (although I can't promise you'll never hear a dog bark!), and I would recommend it to anyone. When looking at apartments, remember that you'll be spending a great deal of time wherever you live - so make sure it's a place you love with excellent management. For me, that's North Wood to a T.

This is a great, quiet place to live. The staff is super nice and accommodating! I just moved here a few months ago and I have been impressed by the the helpful staff, the quick winter maintenance, and overall area.

North Wood offers really nice apartments in a wonderful location - close to everything, and with a Zone 1 bus stop on site! The grounds are beautiful, and the apartments are quiet. The way the buildings are arranged, with the patios and balconies facing each other, you can get to know your neighbors, if you want to. I love the mix of ages, cultures, and "family units" - college students, young professionals, couples of all ages with and without kids. Plus, pets!

North Wood also stands out in… the rare occasion when something isn't quite right. There is one maintenance technician assigned to my building, Todd. He knows the building and every apartment. I have one of the vintage kitchens, and there was some normal wear-and-tear issues. Todd "tuned up" the cabinets - including making a brand new drawer front, because yes, he is that talented - and they look great and function perfectly now. From Lauren, Jess, and Lisa in the office to Todd and all other staff I've met, everyone here cares not just about the apartments, but about those who live here, and making us feel at home.

In short, this is a great place to live. Read More
