ARK Villas Furnished Suites and Apartments

I’ve lived here for the last 5 years now, going on 6. This place has its good and bad like with any apartment complex. The pool is awesome in the summer! They keep it clean and it doesn’t get overly crowded. Nice but pool too. Gym does it’s job. Good amount of machines but I know gym buffs will note it’s small… but it has your basics. Treadmills, bikes, free weights, machines for arms, legs, etc. When I first moved it, amenities were great (brrakfast, free cable, coffee) but through the years they’ve taken a lot away while still raising rent. They are not the best during the winter. Parking lot is always a mess and I’ve slipped on ice more times than I can count… not ideal at all! Maintenance could be better. They respond to most things, but small things seem to be forgotten. A friend of ours had to have their heat fixes 4 different times before they finally decided to replace the system. You do get a washer and dryer in each apartment though which is a plus… is it worth paying $ 200-​$ 300 more on average than comparable, depends on the person I guess. Its also a good area. Near lots of shopping and grocery. All in all, I can say I’ve stayed 5 years because the office is great to work with. Probably won’t leave until we buy a house.
