Property Ratings at Lake Forest Apartments
The maintenance is terrible. There is always something wrong with my apartment. Vent leaks in the hallway, something always breaking and everything is old and out dated.
Property Manager at Lake Forest Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s very important to us to address the concerns of our residents promptly, and we take great pride in providing a great place to live. Please contact us so that we can work with you to resolve any remaining issues ASAP. We look forward to speaking to you soon!
First of all don’t move here if you like trash in your hallways and the smell of marijuana!! Do not move here if you can’t afford to fix things on your own maintenance doesn't respond well with requests so I advise you to blow the office phone up , wait let me save you time they don’t answer it at all but they love to sit in the office and be super busy to answer a phone that conversation can take less than 5 mins !!! My car was broken into !! Make sure you call the non emergency number ( not 911 but the non emergency number ) make your complaints to them for example loud neighbors this and that and save it get a report number. Anything so you have proof that you spoke to the office and you called officers out thank me later !! The walls are thin very thin that I hear my upstairs neighbors bed squeak !! So have fun with that I’m out this dump

Please reach out to us so we can work towards a resolution. Thanks again for bringing this to our attention. We hope to hear from you soon. All the best, Lake Forest Apartments (614) 758-3005
The apartment we tried to live in was uninhabitable. There was black mold on all the windows and in the seal of the fridge door. There was green mold on the cabinet doors. The smell of rodent urine was horrible. There were mouse droppings in the utility closet. Not to mention the apartment itself was very dirty when we moved in. We could not stay there. There was grease coming down the wall from the stove exhaust. There was a hole in one of the doors and crayon writing on the doors. And now they are taking their time returning our money to us.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to let us know about your recent experience. We are disappointed to hear that you are not satisfied with your visit.
I recently toured the model units and grounds of Lake Forest as part of my search for an apartment rental.They did not have a unit available that met my needs (first floor, wood view) but Erica in the leasing office did an excellent job. It was the end of what looked to be a busy Saturday for her, yet she was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. She followed up with me on Monday. I was very impressed, and although I am not moving in (I found a first floor wood view at a nearby complex), I will recommend Lake Forest to others as the need arises and/or is appropriate.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are so happy you found a new home that meets your needs. Best of luck to you.
When I moved in to Lake Forest and during my move in process the office staff has been nothing but extremely helpful in assisting me in everything i needed to do. The move in process was made easy due to their ability to send my lease to me electronically down to walking the apartment during my move in. I absolutely love it here and love the location!
Property Manager at Lake Forest Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for sharing your move in experience with us. We work very hard to make sure your home is ready for you and that the move in process is as streamlined and convenient as possible. We hope you join us during the last week of March for Pizza & Salad as we spend an entire week appreciating our amazing Maintenance Team!
I really enjoy living here at Lake Forest. The office staff is always super nice to me and answer me promptly. Whenever i have a work order put in they always complete it within a day or two which is great i absolutely love that they care about their residents. I recently saw the new grills getting delivered and i can't wait to use the pool and have a cook out with my friends and family here. It's such a beautiful property in the summer and i am so excited for that.
Property Manager at Lake Forest Apartments, Responded To This Review
Yay! And we agree, this is a 'Happy Place"! We too are excited about opening the pool and breaking these new grills in. They are super beautiful and even have built in coolers! Watch your email for upcoming community events as we head into the spring and summer!
This is a really quiet place to live. The people that live here mostly keep to themselves, but everyone is really nice and courteous to each other. The staff is always here and available if you need something. There's always someone fixing or making improvements to something and they keep the place nice and clean. I love the location, it's easy to go anywhere. I will probably stay here until I buy a house. This is one of the best renting experiences I have had.
Property Manager at Lake Forest Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for posting this wonderful review. We agree, Lake Forest is not a large community. Small and quaint, and yes, everyone loves the location. We work very hard everyday to ensure your community is a home our residents can be proud of bringing their friends & family. We are so happy your experience with us has ben so good and we look forwarding to you living us for many years to come. WE LOVE OUR RESIDENTS!
I have been living here for about 3 years. I really enjoy how quiet and hidden the apartments are. There is a good amount of yard space for my dog. I haven't had any issues with my neighbors or break ins with my car. I've had no real problems if i needed something fixed, they've came in about 4 days to fix non emergency issues. There are some negatives though. One being that the walls are a little thin. Sometimes i can hear peoples tv's. The second is that rent and deposits are really high. My rents gone up $20-30 every year. That seems really high when they are already robbing me on a $35 pet deposit where I've paid upwards of $1500 in pet fees.
