Bent Tree Apartments

Only thing I didn’t like was the old stove that we had and the refrigerator but other than that the apartment was nice . Didn’t really have any problems but if we did kantienne made sure it was fixed .

Not at all what’s pictured. The tennis court is dilapidated and the pool hasn’t been opened in years. They’re gonna tell you “not this weekend but the next one” when you ask about it opening up but according to other residents, it’s never open! The dumpster bins are always full with trash juice trickling in the street which makes the area smelly. Oh, listen out for gunshots every now and again (may be from neighboring apartments??)

Lived there for 3 years. It's cheap and relatively close to downtown. The complex never looks great. Trash is littered throughout. People hardly clean up after their dogs. Those are more so the fault of gross people but it'd be nice if it was cleaned up. Landscaping is taken care of routinely, however. If you don't really plan on going out downtown (because ubers are way too expensive and might not even come) it's alright. Had a crack in the tub that I had to tell them about multiple times until... they had to entirely replace the tub which I got no advanced notice of and couldn't shower at the apartment for a week. AC went out a few times. Heat never worked. Had maintenance come out to check on the heat, they cut a hole in the ceiling I guess to check something up there, and never patched it up. Multiple wall outlets are loose for whatever reason, so they can't be used. Expect some pests during the summer months, whatever pest control sprays doesn't really work. I got my own stuff that worked better. All that said, my neighbors were pretty quiet and I never had any complaints about that. Could always sleep early with no noise. Management was nice and whenever I had a complaint it was addressed somewhat quickly. But when you put in a maintenance request, you never know when they come. Could be within a few hours, could be a couple days. And for certain requests they will just open your door without warning. It's an ok place to live if you're a working adult and don't want to spend a lot to live downtown. But you get what you pay for. If you're looking to save money it's probably your best bet, but if you've got the money I'd look elsewhere. Read More

I moved to this property after seeing a friends unit, but I regret not doing a more thorough evaluation of this complex before moving in. The exterior of the buildings are kind of drab and ill managed along with the inside of the units. I moved here thinking that a great price such as these it would not be that bad but I was sadly mistaken. I had a major roach issue in my kitchen areas such as cabinets, doors, etc. You can request Pest Control at your discretion but whatever chemicals they were... using didn’t seem to work. Within my first 6 months of staying in this unit my water heater pipes bursted and flooded the entire laundry room and front entrance area. When I called the emergency maintenance technician he tried to “talk me through turning off the water” instead of simply coming to fix the problem immediately. After two days of straight rain, I noticed water coming in from beneath the floor boards in my dining room area. If you are looking for a cheap place to live in the Columbia area but don’t care about basic amenities/services THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU. I moved out with no intent of renewing a lease here.

My overall experience here at Bent Tree has been great. Upon moving in, The two ladies in the leasing office makes everything 100x better. They were very helpful and pleasant. Certain appliances could use some upgrading being that’s its 2020. But for the price, you definitely get what you’re paying for! I love it, my 1 year old and I are comfortable and we feel safe.
