Ever since the management change to Damona Richards in June 2025, this community has not been in survival mode following the Derecho, Beryl, and management changes, it has been in thriving mode! Also, with the addition of Arthur, the grounds and maintenace manager, completely different world. Let me start with the fact that I have lived here for 17 and 1/2 years and I have seen it all and it has not been this great and wonderful since I moved in, in September of 2008. My home and this community was completely different in September of 2008. This community was very different then as it was the premier place to live inside the loop, only luxury apartment / midrise communities in this area, and/that set the tone for all the other properties that have popped up around it. This is still the OG and has now reclaimed that spot. Our home and the views are million dollar at minimum. There is no better rooftop pool & view, the amenities, the infinity pool on the lower level, gym, private parking, outdoor kitchen, working elevators, & spa. Additional Management is absolutely wonderful to work with as well as new leasing agents that are polished and professional that the long-time residents are very appreciative of. I am very grateful for all that Damona has done for me and will continue to do for myself and all of us that thoroughly enjoy living here now, I hope and pray that we can keep her forever. I know my mother feels the same because every time I talk to her, when anything about home comes up and I say all the things that the management team is doing and how kind you are and positive and absolutely on top of everything you all are, I know she probably wonders where have you been for 17.5 years!? Honestly the last time it was this good was when I first moved in and Henriette was here in 2008. Is it perfect, no. But, like in business, that's why we do the next best thing and we do the next right thing because no one or thing is perfect. And Damona and this community has proven that beyond measure with what she and her team have been capable of and to turn around this community that she has been the catalyst behind. The ownership and management have invested quite a bit of capital into Renovations at this community and you won't find a better view in the city and leasing specials for all the new amenities and stainless steel new appliances and all of the upgrades that they are now providing. This is an architecturally sound building and no two units are the same and while I am partial to my cherry wood floors should you want a modern feel they have this look as well so it is simply like mini small mid to high-rise units that are all conjoined but each one is different. Take a look you won't regret it and you are so close and centrally located to everything and you get to be a part of all of the festivals that happened downtown as well as the marathon and everything else! I have had to go through a complete renovation twice in my tenure here and have moved units following both storm damages in 2024 and the management and ownership has been completely accommodating in moving me to a more accommodating unit during construction and then moving me back within the next month and have provided access to completely restore my home to how it was pre-storm because I made it very clear that I love where I live and do not want to move. That in my opinion is going above and beyond for something that I do not own; I'm thoroughly appreciative! They have worked with my schedule and I have worked with theirs because I know beyond a shadow of a doubt the insurance and construction it's not something in a professional career that I have time for and appreciate the liaison that they have been to not only myself but to all of the community members. Something breaks it is fixed the same day and if it's not fixed that day, you know when it is going to be fixed. And I have seen on average a 48 to 72 hour at max turn around time. Do yourself a favor & sign the lease or renew, promise it will make your days in Houston the best yet! Thank you all!

I have seen this property change management companies, and I must say the current team is EXCEPTIONAL and a big reason why I renewed my lease. Unique building design, bayou/downtown views from the rooftop are unreal. Thank you Vanessa, Amy, Brooke and superstar maintenance team for making Bayou on the Bend feel like home!!

New management has really turned this place around. I recently renewed my lease here for another 15 months and couldn't be happier with my decision. The office and maintenance staff is always going above and beyond to keep the property nice and clean, and very responsive to anything we need. Thank you Bayou on the Bend team and Roscoe Property Management!!

Recently visited friends who live at Bayou on the Bend. Had to talk to the office staff to help gain access into the community, they were very professional and helpful. Was impressed they contacted my friend for verification they were expecting me. Good security not to let just anyone gain access! The community was gorgeous and loved the views from the apartments!
