“Do NOT Rent here. Management in the leasing office is beyond shady, a different resident/ family is evicted here literally every month, rent increases for current residents are predatory, and there is dog poop EVERYWHERE. 1) The leasing office unprofessional. I called in weeks ago to talk about my lease renewal offer. I have been living here for three years, and have been raised $900 dollars in that span. My current lease renewal offer would have me paying more for my 1 bedroom than any of the MANY vacant 1 bedroom apartments currently available along with most of the 2 bedroom apartments that are currently sitting vacant and listed on the website. After calling in and being promised a conversation with management, no one ever called me back. When I called in days after they promised to call back, I was told that the manager that was supposed to call was sick and that the other managers were all traveling. Fast forward a week later, I called in again only to be told the same story and they would call me the next day i.e. the last day I had to make a decision on my renewal... of course, no one called me back. I had to call customer care to beg them to get a manager from the renewal team to speak with me, which they finally did at 6 PM that night. I was told but the manager, named Sydney, that it would be ILLEGAL for them to adjust my rent to something more akin to the prices they have listed for the vacant 1 bedroom apartments because they rely on an algorithm/ formula to spit out prices. I reminded this manager that there are currently 23 vacant apartments, ALL 1 bedroom and many two bedroom options listed on the website are less expensive than what they are quoting me, and that there has been an eviction each of the last few months. Again, nothing they can do. Moreover, starting with this new lease cycle, they are throwing in additional hidden fees such as a technology package that includes cable and a new television... I told Sydney I already use another cable provider and have a TV and asked if she could remove this additional monthly expense from my rent. Unsurprisingly, she refused to remove this baked in nonsense charge from my rent, even though i would not be using the service. To recap, the leasing office had hiked my rent $900 in three years, is charging me more money to renew than it would cost to rent any of the vacant 1 bedroom apartments and half of the vacant 2 bedroom apartments, dodged my calls and hoped I would cave without a conversation before I had to make a decision on my lease renewal offer, and is now tacking on additional expenses for services I don't need/ already have. Sydney, the manager, while polite, was particularly unhelpful and frankly incompetent. 2) If you move here, expect to see rain drenched mattresses, furniture and assorted belongings laid out all across the street and sidewalk in front of the development for weeks at a time. Why? Because this place evicts tenants left and right... all while half the apartments in the development sit vacant and they refuse to make remotely fair renewal offers to current residents. 3) If you are a long term renter, DO NOT MOVE HERE. New residents are quoted at reasonable prices when they move in, while current residents are hiked beyond belief from cycle to cycle. Like I said, I've been raised $900 a month in three years, or roughly $11,000 a year from when I first moved in. 4) The grounds are in awful shape. There is dog poop EVERYWHERE. No one picks up after their dog and management does nothing. There is poop on the walking path, so over the grass, along all the fences and all over the tiny dog run. The development also FLOODS FOR DAYS any time there is a heavy rain. Do yourself a favor, and move somewhere else.”

“Lakeside commons has been the best living experience of my college career. It’s absolutely incredible. You get your own bathroom, all updated appliances, you can pick your roomies and even have pets!!! I have met some of my best friends here and I get to live with my cat! It’s super close to campus and they have a shuttle that takes you to and from campus if you don’t have a car! Highly recommend for any college student who doesn’t want to live in the dorms and wants a more luxury living experience!!”

“My wife and our baby girl lived in PLG for the last year (review dated September 2023). We had only moved to the US recently and PLG became our first home. I will say this, it’s not perfect but form my perspective all the negative comments I am reading on Google are very dramatic. The building offers a lot more than one can ever take advantage of or any person really ever could need. We love the outdoor pool and the BBQ area for hot summer days. The basketball court is amazing , there is a good group of people in the building meeting up for playing some ball. The indoor pool and hot tub during the winter days are super! (Changing rooms could be cleaned more often, but nothing that really bothered me). The gym is very well equipped and basically removes the need for a gym subscription. There is a lot more to the building, like a game rooms and other things that we don’t take advantage of. Elevators have some wait times but never more than a minute. At no point ever did we feel unsafe, neither in the neighborhood nor in the building. You see people leaving their front doors open while getting a package from the lobby, and so did we. We never worried about that something could happen. Most importantly all the great people who run the building deserve a shoutout! First, Imeh who is managing the rentals is incredibly forthcoming and helpful. You won’t find anyone more friendly or supportive! Juan the super is a superstar! You log a ticket and the guys will come immediately to help you with whatever you need in your apartment. And all folks at the front desk are great guys! Total luxury to never worry about packages and a total bonus if you don’t even have to say your apartment number when you get to the front desk cause the guys saw you coming and got your packages out already.”

“Before submitting my rental application, I asked random renters walking around the complex how they liked living here - EVERYONE replied positively. So, I submitted my app. After two weeks of being settled, I can honestly say that I join them in the high accolades they gave. From the office staff to the custodial staff, everyone is so warm, welcoming and accommodating. They all strive to make the renters happy. The townhome is quiet, clean and comfortable. It has exceeded my expectations of a rental unit. While I was originally thinking this is a temporary stop for me, I may just decide to stay here longer. than planned. I would highly recommend renting here!”
