To start, I am currently a tenant here and have bee since late June 2014. This is the first apartment I have ever lived in my life. My fiancé and I chose this place after looking at a variety of other complexes online and in person for the surrounding 10 mile radius, nothing compared in physical quality. The rent seemed be cheaper at some of the places, but the finishing a seemed outdated and there was no pool or work out room. Anyways, in all I really enjoy living here and I plan to live here until June 2018.
That being said, I agree with some of the previous concerns: the walls are paper thin… The people above us have a little kid that stomps and cries on the regular (I have talked to the office about it and they sent them a warning… Which I think helped), our heat went out last winter (turned out the old Taco thermostat broke and they ended up installing a brand new Honeywell one that is digital and works amazing), the O ring on my kitchen faucet broke (within 2 days of filling a report they replaced it), the hallways do smell like ethnic cooking on the regular, but it doesn’t get into my apartment so who cares. They just replaced all of the washing and drying machines in our building (I) and now they are card and credit card operated. The rent is a little high, but I truly believe you get what you pay for (it is a really safe neighborhood and the Mundelein police regularly patrol).
I have never had a problem with the staff here and they seem very understanding. In all I love my apartment and the complex. I would and do recommend this place to others, but the rent is a little high (which deters those on a low budget).

I’m currently a tenant here on a 9 month lease. Almost $ 1300 a month for a one bed room apartment is too much because they nickel and dime you to bring up your rent. Absolutely no utilities are included in fact you even have to pay for pest control every month. Search some lesser marketed apartments in the area. Could definitely find a similar place at a much better price.

I have lived several places and this is by far the best. My girlfriend and I have lived here for almost a year now and we have never had any issues with our apartment. We have a 1 bedroom apartment which is spacious compared to the other apartments we looked at. The grounds are well kept and the office people have always been helpful when we need something. We miss having our own washer/​dryer but at least the laundry room here 24 hours so we can do laundry whenever. Overall it is a great place to live on spacious property but it still very close to shopping and entrainment.

I have lived a lot of places in my life, but this was definitely the worst. I only lived here about 9 months, but I have never had more things go wrong with an apartment. The sink leaks, the toilet leaks, the shower/​tub faucet knob broke on 4 separate occasions (Im assuming because it was never properly repaired), the heat needed to be repaired, one of the windows spontaneously shattered (not kidding). The carpet is dirty, the ventilation in the hallways is awful, the walls are paper thin. Could not wait to move out. The rent is not exactly cheap and the corporation will always try to nickel and dime you or find ways to charge you more.
Completely avoid.

This is the worst possible place to live. We have flooded more than three times and barely anything was done about it. The people who work here are awful. They are so rude and give no empathy to you especially when 80% of your furniture was ruined because of the multiple floods. They even wanted to raise our rent this year after the floods last year. I hate this place and cannot wait to move as soon as possible. Do not live here, you will regret it.
