A former mayor once dubbed Bellingham the “City of Subdued Excitement,” an oddly perfect nickname for this delightful and unique community. Ninety minutes north of Seattle on Interstate 5, Bellingham is a charming small city positioned about twenty miles from the Canadian border. Western Washington University enrolls around 16,000 students, many of whom chose to live in the coastal Sehome area near campus.
Locals are quite enthusiastic about beer, books, and bicycles, and you’ll spot many businesses around town specializing in any and all of those Pacific Northwest staples. Bellingham hosts numerous community events throughout the year, covering everything from music to athletics; perhaps the most unique is the annual Ski to Sea race, a seven-leg relay in which teams compete to get from Mount Baker Ski Area to Bellingham Bay via skis, bikes, boats, and by foot.

Property Ratings at Old Mill Village
I've lived at the Old Mill Village for years and this year is my last. As the rent steadily increases to exorbitant amounts, the management companies and owners fail to take into account that the buildings are ancient and the walls are paper thin. Aside from massive heating bills (because the heat simply flows out the single pane windows), I constantly hear my neighbors TV, music, dog, and loud footfalls. And as the property owner ‘upgrades and renovates’ the units a new twist has emerged. They renovated/installed a bathroom over my second bedroom, so now I can hear the upstairs neighbors taking a leak and flushing the toilet! If you don’t want to feel like you are living at a dorm made of paper thin walls, then don’t live here. It was tolerable when the rent was low, but not worth the skyrocketing rent now being requested.
We now have a new property management company, PTLA, and for the first time in all the years of living here, we are now going to be charged a convenience fee for making automatic monthly rent payments. That's the system that works best for a lot of people, but we're essentially being financially penalized for going that route. Because there will no longer be an on-site property manager, the only other options are to drive to the office to drop off a check, or mail a check which requires envelopes and postage. Not a cool new development.
The residents there were very nice and welcoming. The buildings are old and in need of repairs. The photos and the info in the listing are misleading. They make it look and sound like the apartments have been updated/remodeled, but very few actually have. The property could be absolutely spectacular, if they maintained it. Highly recommend touring the property before submitting an application, so that you can see it for yourself.

Old Mill Village is a pretty place to live, but Peak Management, the current owner, is awful. They significantly hike rents with every lease renewal, barely do repairs and treat tenants in a dehumanizing manor.
Property Manager at Old Mill Village, Responded To This Review

We are committed to continually improving our services and ensuring that all our residents feel valued and respected. Thank you for helping us achieve that goal.
This property is owned and managed by Peak management, an absolute nightmare of a company. They do not care at all about their tenants, they don't take care of repairs in anything like a timely fashion, and recently, we were all slapped with at least a 28% rent increase. They charge inflated rents on buildings that are over 50 years old, and say that they are simply going by "market value". Many tenants have had to move out, some of whom had lived at Old Mill Village for decades. Because of the recent increases, some were left unhoused. Peak doesn't care. They have owned this property for over a year, the concrete steps in every building were crumbling when they took over, and they still haven't been fixed. If you think the rents are high here now, just wait until it's time to renew your lease next year when you get stuck with another massive increase. Oh, and get this, now they're trying to charge an additional $50 for the assigned parking spot that comes with each unit. The current on-site property manager will lie right to your face. If you still come to see the place after reading this, don't be fooled. You've been warned!
