Echo Ridge Apartments At Metzler Ranch

This is a wonderful place to live. It is close to everything and easy access to the highway to Denver. The Castle Rock community is great with lots of things/​events to do for all ages. The maintenance is prompt and good. And the staff is amazing, friendly, and willing to do most anything to make your life here the best!

Have been a resident here since June 2015.
3 stars for good apartment units and poor common area maintenance.
The units are actually quite nice, equipped with good appliances.
The amenities the residents here pay for rarely seem to be kept in good condition. Example: Gas grills in the pool area do not work. After a year? Same story. Probably no near-​future plans with those being fixed. Just one example. Tour the amenities yourself.
If apartment parking frustrates you, this may not be a good place. A LOT of folks use the common parking area to park their vehicles/​bikes and it literally just sits there for storing purposes. Have no idea why that is a theme here but it is.
The staff here is nice to deal with in person or via phone. Occasionally, they’ll nag you to death about the porches. One day bikes are okay, next day they’re not okay. Who knows why. I don’t.
And as far as the neighbors, they all seem to have a dog that craps all over the grass and gets left there. You’ll know it for a fact because the grass is constantly dead in random spots and maintenance is constantly doing lawn maintenance to try and bring the dead patches back to life, one after the other.
Don’t walk on the grass.
Not the best I’ve experienced with regard to apartment living but it’s not the worst. Cheers

Great place! Staff is very friendly and maintenance is always on top of it! Amenities are awesome and buildings are built very well so there is little noise issue!

No problems, we love living here! Friendly community, maintenance is always fast to respond, parking is easy, and the complex is updated, safe, and nice!

Been here about 6 months. Haven’t had any huge problems. We’ve had many maintenance calls and most are handled same day. Rent is about average. Pool area is nice. Staff is helpful. Location is awesome. The issues regarding parking are true but if you have a garage, which we do, you have lots of parking; one in garage and probably two compacts in front of the garage. I would recommend this place most days of the week. =)

We’ve lived here since Oct. ’14 and have been impress with the complex. The staff is outstanding and really cares for the residents. All of the office staff have always been willing to help whenever problems arise. After reading some of the comments from 2012 and 2013 I begin to wonder if I’m living in the same place. We’ve experienced none of the problems mentioned in any of the those comments. The common areas are always neat and clean. Snow removal starts as soon as the snow starts. The maintenance staff is courteous and hard working. They are spot on when we’ve had any problems. Can’t speak to the future but, for now, all’s well. For apt living this isn’t bad at all.

We have been living here since May 2014 and have loved it. Heather is awesome in the office. She always helps us with any problems and it seems like she’s always working. The apartment is great! Well kept. Love the 9 foot ceilings and beautiful views. The pool, hot tub, and fitness room are amazing as well. The only thing I would say needs improving is organization and higher standards with maintenance. My work orders have been forgotten at times and that can be very frustrating. But overall I would absolutely recommend living here.

We have really enjoyed living at Echo Ridge! Our apartment has been quite comfortable, the staff very friendly and helpful, and the view of the valley absolutely breathtaking!

I have had quite the opposite experience. I have lived here almost 2 years and have found the staff and the maintenance workers to be very responsive and friendly. I love the layouts of the different models of apartments and the location cannot be beat! Living at Echo Ridge you’re close to most of the restaurants, factory shops, banks etc. and less than a minute from I-​25. I would recommend E. Ridge to my friends!

I lived here for 4 months, and it was the longest four months of my life. The women (it was all women) in the rental office were idiots. Actually calling them idiots would be an insult to idiots everywhere. They’re more like robots that have no answer to anything. It was mind-​boggling to deal with them on anything. Secondly, the common areas in the complex are filthy. Absolutely disgusting– they need to power wash and paint. Big time. Last thing– the pool is a cesspool of degenerate lowlifes. I took my kids once, and I will never subject them to the scum that hang out there all day drinking beer and smoking cigarettes. An absolute nightmare to live here– go anywhere else but this s**thole.

Beware these people will nickel and dime you until you’re near broke! There are so many hidden fees that it really soured my living experience there. The day after I met with the management to rent an apt they raised the rent $ 50 from the previous day. If you rent there, just know you will NOT get your security deposit back. I rented an apartment here and only ended up spending about 1 week total over the course of 6 months. Everything was completely clean and in the exact same condition when I moved in, not a scratch or scuff. I even scrubbed the windows. This didn’t stop them from taking my security deposit so that they can clean the carpets and repaint the walls. What a hoax. Rent some place else unless you want to give your money away to some greedy property management company.
