Willow Creek Apartments

Based on comments and more importantly replies from management... I will not look at moving here. The management seems very rude and confrontational. Will continue to look else where.

Overall, I've been pleased with my experience at this apartment. It's set up like a hotel, with all of the units located in one building. In the central area of the first floor, there's a lounge, a pool room (with sauna and hot tub), and a laundry room. The lounge is spacious, and you can rent it our for the day (for a small fee) and have a decent sized get-together. However, you can only have two non-tenants in the pool area with you, so no big pool parties. The laundry room has ten washers and… fourteen dryers, and they generally work well. When they don't, the staff is pretty efficient in getting them working again within a week or two.

Our unit is nice overall. Two good sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living room, and a fairly small kitchen. The living room has a fireplace, but we haven't used it yet. Everything is in good shape. The stove seems older but works well. We have a patio that looks out on the "backyard" area of the building - a fairly large yard with a small woods beyond it. (Rent is slightly more for a unit that faces the back of the building as opposed to one that faces the front.) The smaller bathroom has a corner that smells like animal urine, perhaps left by a former tenant's pet. Didn't notice it until a few weeks after we moved in.

Parking can be a bit of a headache. My roommate and I were given two parking stickers for our cars. We're assigned one spot in the garage underneath the building. This is convenient because I'm guaranteed a particular spot, but be aware - your vehicle needs to be relatively small to fit in these tiny spots. I wouldn't recommend trying to park anything bigger than a mid-sized car down there, and I've seen apartment staff tell other tenants to park their SUVs and minivans outside instead. Even with a properly sized car, you need to be very particular about how you park, so that the tenants on either side of your space have enough space to get out of their vehicles. Outside parking is even more difficult, since you're not always guaranteed a spot. My roommate used to complain often about guests being parked in tenant spots rather than designated guest parking (even overnight), but the staff may have cracked down on this since I haven't heard about it in a while. One last note - when leaving either the garage or the outside lot, you have to turn onto a street with a fair amount of traffic and often a LOT of parked cars. This can make it very difficult to see oncoming traffic as you're leaving. Read More
