Florin Hill Apartment Homes

My husband and I have had wonderful experience living at FH. They have the best staff from Diana to the maintenance team. Living here for the past 3 years has been a dream. Having the gardens taken care of, the beautiful pool in the summer and the clean gym to work out in it’s been a vacation with no responsibilities of a house. Location is amazing too with having the ability walk to the grocery store it’s been a charming community.

Expect to lose part of your security deposit. This is the only place of 5 apartments that has billed my security deposit for cleaning. I spent 6 hours taking care of the unit after moving out. They will mail you a cleaning list that is PAGES long, and not reflective of what's agreed in the lease agreement. The will also bill you for turnover costs and 'Standard carpet cleaning fees' not including in the lease agreement. Can you take them to small claims? Sure, but do you have PTO? Are you... willing to drive back to the area and actually file over 400 dollars? They are banking on that you wont. Seeing as they've dropped rent almost 200 dollars a unit, it seems like people are realizing they aren't the spot to go to. Don't live here. Read More

I've lived here for 5 months so far and I've loved it.

Pros:
- Private pool and gym
- Cafe next door
- Beautiful pond and horizon views
- Spacious apartments
- Updated appliances
- Washer/Dryer in unit and dishwasher
- Reliable electricity/water, efficient heating/cooling
- Plenty of parking
- Safe area, 5 minutes from town

Cons:
- Can hear neighbor's dogs often
- Chalky matte paint on the walls that scuffs easily
- Carpet everywhere except kitchen/bathrooms (personal preference)
- Master... bedroom door covers master bath (weird layout)
- Garbage truck comes multiple times a week and is very loud

Overall, my gripes are very minor and I would highly recommend this apartment to those looking to live in Mount Joy!

Don’t live here, It’s awful. One Neighbor and HOA have made our household life so unbearable we’ve decided to move after a year. No parking. This community is Letter happy, ticket happy, and miserable. Belligerence abound.

Lived here for 2 1/2 Years.

The apartments are huge, well layed out with a washer and dryer. I had the upper level so the stairs (the go straight up) are a bit daunting but not horrible, just a pain to vacuum.

Maintance here is top notch. Rarely had a problem but when we did it was taken care of quickly. They do regular routine maintence too, like changing out the furnace filters.

The apartments are all electric, wish the furnace was gas but the bills were manageable.
There is plenty... of parking for guests, at least where I was in the complex. With your unit you will have a garage plus a carport. The garage was great to have either for a car or extra storage.

Neighbors were quiet, lots of people have dogs (never heard them either). I’d say it’s a great place to live. Wish they had more bars / restaurants within walking distance but maybe that will come as they have vacant retail spaces available.

If Florin Hill is in your budget, I highly recommend. Wish I could move this apt to Virginia where I’m paying more for a lot less (1bd/1b no garage). Read More
