Lakeview Park

I have really enjoyed my stay at these apartments.

Interior:
I’m in a 1 bed 1.5 loft and love the amount of space I have for the price.
The walls are a little bit thin, but I think they’re on-par with most apartments.
The water heater is on the smaller end, which means you can’t run the dishwasher and shower at the same time.
The appliances are old fashioned. I’m particularly annoyed by the coil-stove and the ancient dishwasher.
The smoke detector is placed right outside the kitchen and is extremely sensitive.
The decks are spacious and I have a wonderful tree in front of mine that provides shade and privacy.

Shared space:
The halls are kept pretty clean and I’ve never had issues with trash or random junk lying around.
There are laundry facilities on each end of the hall on both floors which I really like. They’re a little dated and need cleaned.
The gym is tiny. There’s only enough room for a couple people to work out at once.
The clubhouse is really just an office. It would have been nice to have a place to rent out for parties and gatherings.

Community:
There were a couple civil disturbances (couples or friends or partners yelling at each other in the middle of the night) but this was not overly common. Maybe 3 instances in 1 year.

Exterior:
The grounds are really nice. I especially like the fire pit and grills. No need to bring coal or your own propane tanks- it’s all powered by a gas line.
Pet owners are pretty responsible and pick up after themselves. I’ve never had issues with an unfriendly or rowdy animal, either.
There have apparently been some car break-ins but I haven’t experienced that so far.

Service/ management:
The office staff is polite and professional. They’re responsive and helpful. They do not check their mail promptly. I advise you do not pay rent with a banks bill-pay service. It’s taken over 2 weeks to process my checks before and has even resulted in getting a late-rent notice.

The grounds and maintenance staff are extremely friendly and prompt. I’ve had to request maintenance twice and both times I received same day service and the issue was completely resolved.

Overall, I’m really happy with this apartment complex. I like the location, the space, the price, and the people. It’s not perfect, but this place is a great home.

Update-
After moving out I was treated fairly and they gave back most of my deposit in a timely manner. I still highly recommend this complex.

I lived at Lakeview for 3 years and was very happy with the complex! The amenities were always clean, the office staff is responsive and kind, and the apartments are nice and updated. A great community of people live here. My dog loved to play with the other dogs at the dog park, and always got excited when I took him into the office with me because he knew he’d always get extra pets and a treat!

I don't have any complaints about the way the complex is ran. Most of my issues are solved quickly and the one that wasn't (dryer issue) I was kept in the loop on the delays. There area are always bags available to clean-up after my dog. Easy to find, easy access to downtown and I-80. I can't use the nearby lake, but that's not the apartment's fault. Price is right as well. My only complaints would be one set of noisy neighbors and the guy who revs his motorcycle regularly late at night. Also, assigned parking would be nice, but I haven't had to park far away from my apartment so nothing major. I would recommend if you have the budget.

We love living at Lakeview! Been here a number of years! The office gals are awesometastic! Always helpful with questions and even double down as armchair therapists. Grounds are kept nice. Great location. Maintenance guy is pretty darn cool too, very knowledgeable and likes our pets. Great place to live!
