Tenant Reviews for 5535 TIMBER CREEK PLACE DR

I strongly urge renters searching for a new home to pass this property by. Ever since I've had to report managers to corporate for forcing me to deal with an defective stove for 4-5 months they've been giving me horrible attitudes. Just today I called them out for making a mistake on my ledger balance they had the ordasity to give me attitudes and walking out of office area before even closing out my concerns. I regret the day I came to this property to sign a lease. Please pass apartment complex when searching for a new home, they have the worst service I've seen in decades

This place is horrible. The management does nothing! The hot Water has been out at least 6 times this month but there's no compensation for that. My truck was towed the first week I was here an tried getting manager to refund money. She wouldn't listen. Had to go to tow court and won. Don't come here!

Despite all the bad reviews on this particular apartment complex, I went with my gut and signed a lease here recently. While parking is definitely a nightmare after 5pm, this apartment complex is fairly quiet and nice. From some simple research about the apartment, I found it was built in the 80s, which explains the bland and boring exterior of the buildings, however, the inside of our apartment has ample space and is very nice to live in. Rent is reasonably priced and the staff at the leasing office do genuinely seem to care about their residents. I read many bad reviews about management here, but I never really had any problems with the staff. All of the other residents are people that are older than I am or are just trying to take care of their families and pretty much keep to themselves. I haven't dealt with any creeps or thugs and everyone in the community seem to be fairly respectable, hardworking people. The downside to this community would have to be the surrounding apartments. People from these said surrounding apartments like to linger in the streets at night and hang out late. I never had any problems with these people, however. All in all, this apartment complex is awesome for the price and I would definitely recommend it to anybody looking for an apartment in this area.

My girlfriend and I visited this place recently (Saturday April 6th). We choose to look at this location because of the cheap prices for the large floor plan. First glance: The location looked decent, I noticed a lot of other apartment complexes in the area, but nothing really -stood- out compared to others. Staff: The lady there was nice, and provided an adequate service.We asked to see floor plan B, which is the larger of the two one bedroom (Plan A 593 sqft and Plan B 703 sqft). Luckily for us, there was a model home available for this floor plan. Touring the model home / floor plan: Before I even get to the "model" home, on our way there I noticed several off-putting things. First of all the sidewalk was shotty, dirty, and looked like had been through an earthquake. Second, the pool didn't look like it had been cleaned in awhile even though it is open year-round. Lastly, I can hear some loud salsa music on the way to the model home. At the "model" home, it looked ... dirty and dim. The living room and the dining room looked well kept, the kitchen was poorly lit and the appliances look like they were from the 60s. The bedroom had a good amount of open space, however the bathroom was a mess. For some reason the ceiling was lower than the rest of the unit, I'm 6'1" which probably brought the ceiling level around 6'3" or 6'4" (give or take an inch). The ceilings also had what looked like water damage and they had painted over (or tried too) the damage? Also, I can hear a different set of music (some Mariachi) playing while inspecting the bathroom. The W/D was located in the closet and just looked horrible. I understand that the appliances aren't suppose to work in the model units, but knobs were missing and doors were ajar. Overall I was very disappointed with Bear Creek. The model home is suppose to be your selling point correct? This is what you show your prospective residents this could be where you live, imagine your future here! Presentation is key, if this is your selling point then ... I'd redo your business plan. C'mon guys, I was embarrassed FOR you.

If you're looking for a 3 month lease, don't bother. Despite advertising 3 month leases on their website AND have an app on their website to generate a quote for 3 month leases for a particular apartment, they do not offer short leases. Nor will they honor the quotes generated on their website. A little truth in advertising would have saved me a lot of time! Or having the decency to honor what their website says would go a long way too. If the apartment can't honor their own advertisement, you'd probably be better off looking elsewhere...doubt it will improve much over the life of your lease.

The view at first was kinda sketchy but after walking and actually renting an apartment here I love it. I could not find any other apartment complex affordable like Bear Creek Crossing. I am a student and I recommend it to any person who is looking for a quiet and enjoyable place to study. The office staff is really nice and friendly. Everytime there is a problem with my apartment the maintenence people always show up as soon as possible. recommend to anyone looking for something inexpensive with great value.

I like the place. it is very quiet! The office staff is very nice and friendly(: parking can be a little problem if you get back from work late but will find where to park even if it is a little far from your apartment!(: Apartment complexs always have the problem with the parking lot so it is something normal. I recommend it!

This place was okay in the beginning. A few months after moving in, a new manager Kristi took over the property. She appeared to be nice, but then she showed her true colors which were not so nice. I liked the maintenance team, they were prompt each time we had a problem in our apartment. We basically broke our lease after the parking became a problem. Initially, we were giving a plastic green sign to hang from our rear view mirror in our car to specify we lived there. Then it changed to a red decal sticker to post in our car. There's a towing service that comes around midnight to 4 am in the morning to tow cars that don t have the posted sticker. Many, many, many cars were towed (I saw it), $200 a pop. The car is towed to some far away location too. My neighbor had a friend from out of town and his suburban was towed. Our cars were never towed though. Next, the mgmt team decided if you owned more than 2 vehicles than you would have to pay a $100 for a third red decal stick. Now the first two stickers are free, but a third a $100. We had 3 vehicles. It was just me and my husband only, no children. The other problem we had during our time there was finding a parking spot. During the day people go to work and there are plenty of parking spots, but after 5 pm when people start getting home from work or wherever the spots start to fill up quickly. There were a few times when we had to park a good distance from our apartment (where I could not see my car). We lived upstairs and in the beginning we were able to park right in front of our apartment and I like to be able to see mine vehicles from my window. That was one of our reasons for choosing the particular apartment we lived in; easy viewing and access to our vehicles in the parking lot and the dumpster. In addition my next door neighbor s vehicle was broken into; they stole her car radio and speakers. Kristi, the manager never even attempted to post a notice around the property about the burglary. If you are thinking about renting here, just be aware about the parking availability and towing problems. The price was right at the time we needed to be. Also, when our lease ran out after a year, Kristi did offer to keep our rent the same, if we signed for another year, which we did. That was great at the time, but the parking became unbearable. One more thing I forgot to mention: Some idiot hit both of our cars one evening; one car was backed in and the other was facing the fence and there was a car between them when we left to go out of town that morning. Came back that evening and the tail light was broken on one car which we had to replace and other car the side park light and fender was scratched. We reported it to the mgmt team. But I know there was nothing they could do. But it just pissed us off so bad. Good luck if you move here and god bless you if you live there now.

I have lived in this apartment complex for years. I must say that the property management team has made a considerable effort to thwart the influx of individuals that do not respect their neighbors. Bear Creek Crossing is probably the most organized and safe complex in the timber creek area. The problem that most of disgruntled tenants have is that they are not allowed to continuously break the rules in the complex and make excessive noise. This apartment complex is not a ------ it is a peaceful community where people can live and enjoy the amenities offered. It so sad that this post was made based on race, because ignorance has no color nor does it come in one package. I want everyone reading this post to ask yourselves this question is it considerate to sit on the patio until 3am drinking and making excessive noise barbecuing next to the building (which is against the apartment rules and fire codes) or stomping on the second floor in the middle of the night? I ask anyone reading this previous post to consider these factors. My biggest concern is people that participate in this type of discourteous behavior have no concern for their fellow man and lack the common decency to show respect. There is nothing wrong with having fun, and participating in recreation. However, recreation is satisfactory as long as it does not disturb the peacefulness that everyone in the community is due. People that violate the basic rules of respect and consideration may need to choose a neighborhood where they can operate in a manner that best suits them.
