Emerald Creek Apartments

I have previously lived at Emerald Creek and I am about to move back. There was a short wait for openings, which is hard to find. Jodi, the property manager is very friendly and helpful! Great customer service.

We just moved In but I can say this is the best experience I’ve had with any apartment in the area! Maintenance is timely and punctual and the on site property management is very courteous and friendly. Lots of amenities and super close to pretty much anything you’d need on a daily basis. Overall would recommend!

My partner and I lived here for 3 years and it was a great first place together! From the leasing manager to the maintenance man, everyone I’ve needed help from has done so with kindness and in a timely manner! We loved that if we forgot an ingredient for dinner, it only took a minute trip to the store. The hiking trails and small waterways behind the apartment are wonderful and an easy way to get outside more often. The apartments themselves are quaint and most of the time quiet. Thin walls make for some noise from neighbors but that’s nothing unusual for a complex. We loved having two bedrooms even as a couple so there’s room for storage and an office space!

Moving in to these apartments has been such a breeze thanks to the new manager here, Jodi. She works hard (and fast) to make sure her tenants are happy and comfortable here in the community, all while wearing a bright smile on her face. The apartments themselves truly are amazing for the prices here, especially being one of the more affordable apartments in the city. And while we’re at it, let’s talk location! Being right in the center of everything (without the excess traffic of being downtown) is incredible! I’m over the moon to be welcomed to this community and would definitely recommend these apartments to anyone who may be looking in the future! Being young and finding housing can be so hard, however, this has been one of the best moving experiences I’ve ever had, and I’ve moved quite a bit.

I have recently moved here and so far everything has been wonderful! From the very first phone call made to ask about the place to now living here has been very easy. Brian has been extremely helpful and has made the whole process very simple and stress free. The apartment is very spacious, full size washer/dryer, pets allowed, it's quiet, I feel safe, walking distance to many places, a great hiking trail located right behind the facility. I've had two small, simple issues that required maintenance which was taken care of promptly! Overall, I'm very happy I chose Emerald Creek Apartments!

The places was either poorly built or poorly maintained. The only place that really gets heat is the living room, the bedrooms a freezing during winter. There is something wrong with the electrical, the light switches shock you and your electric bill is ridiculous. The dryer most likely doesn't work. The smoke alarm goes off from just opening the oven. Have you ever been stuck in your apartment? You will if you live here because your door doesn't always unlock. It'll take about 20 tries. Forget about maintenance. They will either never show up to fix it, show up and half fix it. They will also come in when you are not home and not tell you, move things and leave things there. Forget about having a bath or a decent shower, the water pressure is like an old guy who can't pee but the pee is always cold. The smell of marijuana/dog pee/cat pee fill the hall. Vehicles get vandalized. So if you want to heat the outside in winter or cool the outside in summer, not be able to dry your clothes, have to pay $100 in electricity, barely be able to cook, occasionally be locked in your apartment, not get a decent shower or have to reshower because the first shower didn't get all the shampoo/conditioner out of your hair, have people come into your space without permission, be surround by possible drug dealers or some other form of criminal, and be completely screwed over by your landlord then Emerald Creek Apartments in Traverse City is the place for you.

Overall good apartments. pros washer and dryer, nice layout - 2 bedroom for the amount of space, quick repairs, dish washer, pets allowed ,balcony, elevator don't have to climb stairs, location walking distance of many stores and a mall, A lot of parking , also plowed regularly, on site garbage Cons noise close to a airport, big building a lot of neighbors noise large pet deposit
