Have lived here for almost 2 years now about to move out and finally felt like I had enough experience here to write a comprehensive review.
Pros:
The apartments are incredibly nice, great large kitchens, nice open space and vaulted ceilings! Plenty of room to have some friends over for dinner and hangout!
Maintenance is great! They were always real with me and if I had any problems they gladly fixed it quickly! Completely appreciate them!
The 2 bedroom 1 bath I am staying in is only around 850 sqft it feels very spacious as a single guy I had plenty of room. Now that I am married my wife and I have felt a little cramped, but still nothing too terrible!
The gym and pool have all been great! The gym can be busy at times, but thats to be expected. Have no issues with either one and am glad they are offered!
Neutral:
The included washer and dryer are good! the washer works great no issue, but the dryer likes smaller loads, so something to keep in mind. Otherwise you will have to run it through twice, or even three times. Also ALWAYS CLEAN THE SECOND FILTER!! I noticed it runs better when you regularly clean the second filter in the dryer.
Cons:
All the cons have more to deal with the other tenants than the apartment complex.
One thing I will never understand is the fact that the apartment complex offers plastic baggies for dog poop, yet I see insane amounts of dog poop on the grass. I know a lot of people pick it up and are good dog owners, but there is still tons of dog poop everywhere from the few who do not. Again its a resident problem.
Second the wifi basically crashes if you download anything over a gigabyte as it cant handle the bandwidth. Its unbelievably annoying. But most of the time I just connect everything through ethernet and never have any problems. Otherwise the internet for watching shows, etc. works perfectly fine!
Not a con but something to keep in mind if you want to move in. If you are single I would recommend a 2 bedroom 1 bath setup as its the perfect size for a single individual. But if you have a partner or might have a partner in the future I would recommend a 2 bedroom 2 bath setup. Main reasons for this are, 1. From my understanding in the 2/2 setup you can get a garage and that is very nice if you and your partner have your own cars! 2. You don't need to wait to use the bathroom, while they are in it! 3. You will have a little more space which will help with two people living there. Just something I wish I knew before I chose my floor plan!
Overall:
I have loved my time here at the Meadows. Although my wife and I have purchased a home and are moving away, a part of me will miss the Meadows. Its not perfect, but it is by far the best place I have ever lived! Its in a great location and is easy to get anywhere from. It is especially great if you are waiting for housing prices/interest rates to come down! I would fully recommend it!
