Neighborhood

Golfcrest is a serene Houston neighborhood tucked into the Interstate 45 and 610 junction. The Golfcrest area also includes Bellfort and Reveille, making this relatively large suburban locale a great choice for families and renters looking for a quiet setting outside of Houston. Proximity to big-box stores and conveniences along the Gulf Freeway increase the area’s allure, as do the community parks within the neighborhood. The University of Houston is just a five-minute drive away, so Golfcrest is great for students too.

There’s a diverse community that calls Golfcrest and the surrounding communities of Pecan Park and Glenbrook Valley home. Families will love the top-rated schools in the area, university students have their pick of affordable apartments, and renters of all walks of life will be just 15 minutes from Downtown Houston.

Buyer Beware (Don't waste your money)

Poor Management, Unqualified Maintence personnel, Lie, Cheat, and Steal your money. Don't waste you time, headache,or money on this wanna be thuggish ponzi scheme apartments. The apt wasn't ready upon move in, trashed apt, don't do work on apt until tenant turns on lights. Pest control done by maintence not by outside vendor, just throw white substance on wall and top of stove, got it all on my pots and pans, had to sanitize and deodorize, you pay rent but nothing ever gets fixed. No heat and lights in apts for winter snap. Maintenance was not an certificated hvac and he tripped breaker. I had to pay for hotel room for two nights. Main boiler is broken, got sick. No heat in most apts and office. Do I need to say anymore. Warning: Buyer Beware! Buyer Beware!

Quiet

I lived here before and never had a problem with anything...not even roaches Management did the best they could to get things done in a timely manner and it was a quiet place to live parking was a little crazy but above all it was an OK place to stay.

Older apartment but management is good

It is an older apartment and for what you pay for it is a little bit overpriced in my opinion. The residents are mostly lower income people and immigrants. I picked this place because it's close to where I go to school. I do not plan to stay here in the long run because the apartments are old and everything just keeps breaking. The good thing is the management are pretty fast with fixing stuff. However, they do only prioritize emergencies. So if other stuff in your apt breaks it might take them up to à month or more to finally come fix it.

Worse Complex ever

This was the worse experience i had live while living in apartments. Maintenance is horrible. Never fix what they are supposed to when they say they are. Management changed 3 times in the year and a half we were there and things that were promised to get fixed never got done. Restrooms got flooded, had mold on windows, and water would always come up in the kitchen. A lot of roaches and exterminator will never show up. Just horrible!
