Saddle Creek Apartments

MURDER in SADDLE CREEK APARTMENT! A man who lived here was shot and killed in the yard of his apartment. There is no security here. Please read the reviews of Pepper, Joseph & Joe B! I completely agree with them. The management is the biggest problem here. I have never lived anywhere where the staff is so unconcerned about their tenants. I could list many examples of my experience as well as that of my neighbors. But suffice to say that I absolutely would NEVER recommend S.C. to anyone. It is my opinion that if anyone gives them a positive rating, it is likely written by the office staff.

Gun shot last night. It’s so terrible.

This place is horrible! Aside from the old and disgusting apartments that they do not keep clean or updated, the leasing office staff are rude and unorganized. They lost our papers (due to staff turnover apparently) saying we would move out and proceeded to charge us an additional month and a half even after we had turned our keys in! DO NOT RENT HERE! You will get screwed!

Well, at first look these apartments seem great. In the warm months the landscaping is beautiful, there are 2 ponds, lots of trees and green grass. Nice clean parking lots and a covered spot for each apartment. The pool is nice and clean and there are not too many kids that use it so you can relax in peace and quiet.
The gym is a nice added bonus but in the winter people cannot follow the sign that says to change shoes before using their equipment so half the time the treadmills are broke because of salt that has got into them.
Now, upon further inspection you will find that the beautiful grass is filled with dog poo because a lot of the residents with dogs do not clean up after them. When I was moving out we had to lay cardboard over the dog bombs so my friends would not step in crap. 4 piles in about a 30 foot stretch from my door to the truck.
As for the apartment, there is no insulation and the windows and doors leak air, you can expect a high electric/​gas bill in the coldest of winter and the hottest of summer. The apartments are old and have been painted and patched to make them look better, everything in them screams «CHEAP». Stove top was crooked, one burner didn’t get as hot as the others, tiles falling off the bathroom shower, one shower would not get water as hot as the other shower, wasp problem that was never resolved, I could go on and on.
And those are not even the real problems, the real problem is the management! Very unprofessional !! One time a maintenance man entered my apartment when my teenage daughter was home by herself, he had read the work order wrong and entered the wrong apartment. The apartments have big numbers on the side of the door, there is no way that type of mistake should have been made and when I called to voice my concern they pretty much blew me off. I am NOT ok with a man entering my home with my daughter inside ! Also, I wanted to do a walk through when I moved out to inspect wear and tear on the apartment, they said sure no problem let us know a day ahead of time. Well I did and that’s when they told me «we can’t do walk throughs on saturday» This was noon Friday and I had errands to run, totally messed up my schedule. They also require a 60 day notice of termination, I turned it in Feb 4, saying I would be out Mar 31. Well they didn’t bother to tell me I might as well keep my keys till April 5, because they prorated 5 days ($ 105.00) and took it out of my security deposit. They should have told me I was paying for that place for an additional 5 days when they took my keys. Oh yea, we also had a problem with break ins that they didn’t bother telling anyone about… found out from my neighbors.
Soooo… the moral of this story… Don’t Move to Saddle Creek !!

This place is SHADY! If you value your hard earned money, your privacy or your sanity you may want to look elsewhere for residence. First off this place has absolutely terrible insulation and the door and window jams are loose allowing your heat to escape in the winter and air conditioning to escape in the summer. Furthermore, if someone wants to break in to your apartment it probably wouldn’t take more than a screwdriver. I considered adding additional locks but didn’t want to be charged by management. The security on their doors is shabby at best and almost faulty.
Second, people here don’t seem to clean up after their animals regularly so you may likely step in a steaming pile at some point.
Next the maintenance, they don’t seem to be punctual and on occasion they let themselves into your apartment without your permission or knowledge.
Lastly, the management seems to enjoy causing it’s residents aggravation and they do so with a smirk on their face and an audible chuckle coming from the employees in the back room. It almost seems like they believe they’re above scrutiny. I would recommend this place to no one. You’ve been warned.
