This place as truly gone down to the dumps, especially in customer service. I've lived here for almost 7 years. The gate works when it wants to, whether you have a swipe card or a code, and if you call the apartment to get a courtesy officer to help open the gate you can plan on sitting at the gate for a good 30 to 45 minutes unless someone else happens to drive up who has a working card. Also the caliber of people they let move in are sorry with trash and toys laying all over the lawn and playing loud music. If you have a problem, and need to get in touch with the upper level management (i.e. the company who owns Woodmere Apartments at the Lake ) the management will tell you they don't know and will flat out refuse to tell you, especially "Anette" who basically runs around like a chicken with its head cut off claiming not to know whats going on.

Although contract agreement stated that they pay for water and garbage, a month after we moved in, they changed thier mind and charged us for water and garbage. Otherwise, it's ok. There's a tennis court and a garden hose for car wash. Lots of birds in the area. Maintenance is not too bad. Microwave broke and maintenance personnel came by after 2 days and replaced it. Door knobs are broken because they claim the newly installed doors don't work with the existing doorknobs.

I stayed in VG when i first moved to montgomery for school in 2004 and didn't know any better. i'm sorry to the staff (who were very nice by the way), but the place is H-double-O-D... HOOD. i stayed across the breezeway from a family of very loud immigrants (unsure of nationality) who were always outside doing something with a bad little boy that went knocking on doors. downstairs from what was obviously a 3000 lb man by the way i could hear every footstep as he walked. downstairs also from this hoodlum that would try to flirt with me everytime i arrived home. downstairs also from people that swept trash over the side of the awning. (i know u must be wondering who in the heck stayed upstairs'' i wondered that too!) wound up getting my car broken into for a CD player that didn't even work. needless to say, as soon as my lease was up, i was up (and out) as well.

as said by the previous poster (who sounds like staff), it is obviously the people in the community that ruin this place. the staff was nice, the buildings/apts themselves were ok... a bit dated but ok. the grounds could have used help. that really isnt a bad area. just the people.... but what can u do'

As a member of the Village Green Apartment Community, I am very pride of the community that we have at Village Green Apartments. Unfortuntly, there are a number of residents and vistors of the community that do not share the same pride as we do. Understand, that the strenght and overall appeal of a community starts with it residents. We are very fair and sometime offer extra concessions (due to the Fair Housing Laws) when we are approving applicates, only to find out that they are not worthy residents. We have witinessed a number of residents that do pay their rents on time, allow there children to destory our playround and pool area, and dump trash throughout the property. We strive to provide a safe, fun community for our residents, but if our residents do take pride in there own dwelling and take action within their families to assure that we have a great community; then what we strive to do as management and staff is in-vain...The energy that has been made to post some of these negative comments, could have been the same energy to make Village Green Apartments are better place...By just sitting and watching these actions, that are claimed through some these comments, does not make for a valid point-of-view; when there is something that can be done about it...The statement was made that Village Green is the "Ghetto", well, if you bring your Ghetto ways and behavior with you from the Ghetto, then that is what your living environment will become...We all can have a wonderful community where ever we live, but the condition of the community depends on its residents and the pride they have for and in their communities.

Frankly, I do not understand how some people get to live in Village Green. I have lived here a long time and would not qualify now if I had to due to the income level requirement. I have never had a problem paying my rent and according to the applications I have seen, all the apartment complexes have ridiculous approval standards which apparently get ignored or adjusted somehow. Anyway, my research indicates this is one of the lower-priced comparable complexes for the ammenities provided---or 'tried-to-be-provided'; because it's true some residents spoil it for all of us-- by stealing, being trashy, or non-considerate of others, etc. What can be done of these undesirables; they have to live somewhere, and somehow some get in/ got in Village Green.

The police officers who live on the complex may as well be non-existent to residents as we still must call 911 for any problems of that type. There is no feeling of on-site security. A personal gripe I have is that long-time residents (3 years +) can't get new carpet, even upon lease renewal, which I think is crap. Can't even move to a different unit with better carpet---unless you go thru the whole re-qualification application process. And pay a transfer fee. It doesn't make sense to me to lose good residents because they can't get their old carpet replaced or even get better carpet by moving to a different unit. 3 years is the 'standard' for Village Green to replace carpet between DIFFERENT resident leases (earlier if the carpet was damaged)---but there is NO provision for long-time residents to get 'new' carpet. Oh, unless they pay a transfer fee, and must re-qualify or other similarl requirements. Sometimes carpet cleaning just doesn't do the job. I think this is a nice place compared to similar choices. But I will move (even to higher price complex) when I'm fed up with this carpet issue.

I looked at an 1 bedroom apartment at Turtle Place. It was nice, I liked it and wanted to rent it. I asked about the move in costs. I was told there was no security deposit but an $85 fee for a $500 bond, a $35 application fee and $100 reservation fee. I was told depending upon the results of my credit check they may require an additional "security" deposit. They could not tell me the move in cost until I paid all of the fees and they did a credit check. Needless to say I went elsewhere, where they told me with no problem the move in cost. It seems to be a very nice place but they are more concerned with getting their fees than renting apartments

My husband and I have lived at Turtle Place for the past year and really feel at home there. The neighbors are friendly and quiet. We have never had a problem with any noise. The maintenance is kept up very well, but most of all the management is super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Turtle Place

We have lived in Vaughn Lakes for approximately 10yrs.

The Maintenance supervisor (Mr. Smith) were a excellent provider when it came to the rescue of many of our situations onhand. He always stood on the bond of his word and became a real hero in a timely and professional manner, even in place of his maintenance staff. The Property of Vaughn Lakes is always well kept clean and neatly rennovated. The total staff try very hard to make sure that all our needs were meet in a timely and efficient manner, even though it took patience and time.

Besides, according to Emerson, "This time, like all time, is a very good one if we but know what to do with it." We cannot buy time, it is a gift from God. Remember, Time is patience. Everybody's busy... Even Us!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Vaughn Lakes:) Our Time were very well spent

I have lived here for 2 1/2 years. When I first moved in I was infested with fruit flies, and the office offerd me some quick remedies, it didn't work. They told me it was normal for the area. Finally after exhausting their options, I set off some bug bombs and cleared the problem. The a/c still doesn't work correctly after 15 maintenance calls and 2 years. I had a leak in my bedroom ceiling, so I called the office and they said they will send someone out, and so I waited. Finally, after 1 month of calling them they fixed the roof, but my wall was damaged from the roof leak, needless to say it was another month for that repair.
But it's not all bad, besides the maintenance and office staff, the apt is nice and the area great I feel very safe and have never locked my doors. It is close to the airport, 2 malls, and movie theatres. So after all of this I would recommed the apt due to the good factors outweighing the bad, if you do not mind having to call the office alot. My advise is to stay on top of them and they will get it done

I am a soon to be resident of Sturbridge Commons and want people to know about the wonderful customer service that I have received. Having looked at apartments around Montgomery it became common for me to call a complex and not have them call me back, but not at Sturbridge. I have also been on several tours of apartments with office staff that was either uninterested or just seemed bored, as if it was a bother that I was even interested in wanting to view an apartment. At Sturbridge I was met with a professionalism that far exceeded the standard for Mongtomery Apartment living

I recently moved back to Montgomery and chose Sturbridge Commons to call my home. The grounds are neat with mature trees, and my apartment has lots of space as well as a great floor plan for roomates. People feel safe enough here to get out and walk their dogs in the evening and talk to neighbors. The office staff members are friendly and make you feel at home right away. I am extremely pleased with my apartment and feel I will be calling Sturbridge home for quite some time

Convenient, comfortable and clean: Sturbridge Commons Apartment Homes is truly a wonderful place to live. Ever since I lucked out in finding this community, I have been nothing but happy. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. They go the extra mile to satisfy clients and tenants alike. They certainly made me feel welcome and right at home from the very start. I cannot imagine living any place other than Sturbridge Commons in Montgomery.

The apartments are modern, large, and spacious. The fireplace in the living room with the high ceilings add the right touch of class. The round tub in the master bath with modern fixtures is a perfect way to end the day. Natural lighting abounds in my apartment. The walls are sound proof and the security is excellent. The grass is always neat and the grounds are clean and trimmed. If you like nature, there is a large pond and tenants are allowed to fish if they choose. There is also a covey of wild ducks swimming in the pond. And seeing wild geese fly overhead on adds a pleasant touch. It is nice to go and sit by the water and contemplate life.

There is the right blend and variety of working professionals, mature and young couples, and families. There are two club houses with high ceilings and fireplaces with large swimming pools. Parking abounds; I even got the attached garaged with automatic door I wanted. Pets are welcome. My cat enjoys looking out the large picture windows, which provides plenty of natural light. There are no surprises or hidden fees. Extra security systems are available if one feels the need in this electronically surveyed area. I have never felt safer.

Shopping centers, cinemas, restaurants and gas stations are plentiful and conveniently located and it is close to the interstate, parks and walking areas. For those with children, good schools are nearby.

I am delighted to call Sturbridge Commons Apartment home!

I lived at PC from 2006 until 2008, until i moved away for school. At the time, I was annoyed by the gate thing {the others aren't lying... they are always janky... either don't work or people just run right through them} & my noisy upstairs neighbors, plus the change in management {don't mean to be rude, but i liked the former staff way better... seemed like they knew how to communicate with people in a respectful manner a bit better than the new people... except Brett, Brett's very nice and professional}. I will agree with some of the other posters... i've seen it get a bit hood over the time that i was there. especially as evidenced by the trash area... i mean is it too much just to walk the trash up the steps'!'

But now that I have left, i really miss my place. it was really nice, modern, and spacious!!! it's hard to find apts with space these days! another highpoint is maintenence... maybe ppl were having problems contacting them (again, some office staff didn't like to relay msgs, and don't get me started about the after hours chick), but once the gentleman showed up, it was great! he even showed me how to fix something if it happened again! I've been gone for at least 6 months now, and i can't speak on what it looks like now, but if u need space and like modern amenities and don't mind the gate thing and the sometimes finicky staff, then this is the place for you! if, however, you need staff that are at your beck and call, then maybe newer communities further east would give you that stellar level of customer service you desire. (don't know about price comparisons though)...

I have been staying here since october of 2007. One week I witnessed someone breaking into a neighbors apartment. The next week they attempted to break into the neighbor below me apartment, but they was unsuccessful, so they broke into my apartment. The very next day, they came back and tried to break into the neighbor to the left of me. A week ago I went into the hospital to give birth, two hours later, they tried to break in again. Thank goodness I never signed a new lease with them. The only security they have is a courtesy officer. The first time my apartment was broken into he was out of town. I am paying $640 for a one bedroom and it is ridiculous to pay this much and keep having to deal with break ins. They still havent fixed the door frame. Air is coming through, but they dont care that I have a newborn. When I called to ask them about moving to a different complex within the company, of course they didnt like it and she also said that it makes them look bad because I didnt sign a new lease!!! Overall, the area is quiet. The grounds are kept nice clean and cut, but I would not recommend this apartment to my worse enemy unless you dont mind people breaking in. If you do decide to move in, please get rental insurance. As far as insulation, I can hear everything that goes on in the apartment behind me!!!

My apartment at Olympiad was almost as big as my house. I have never seen another apartment in town with the same amount of space for the price. My floorplan also was a split floor plan. People not looking for a lake and ambiance should definitely consider Olympiad apartments.
