Paramount at Cedar Lodge

When this place was called the Enclave at Cedar lodge (new name, same management), management overcharged me by $1,300 for moving out “early.” Even though I moved out on the day my lease ended. I never received any communication from management, even though they had my email and phone number to easily reach me. But instead, they sent my bill to a collections agency, which is the only way I found out about the charge. They refused to cooperate and were very nasty and unprofessional when I asked them why I was unfairly charged. If I could rate this place 0 stars I would, it’s not worth it to live here!

The Paramount at Cedar Lodge Apartments in Baton Rouge has undergone a significant positive transformation under its new management. As a resident for the past 2 years while attending law school, I can attest that the community has improved tremendously. The new community manager is truly exceptional. She knows all the residents by name and is very hands-on, addressing the needs of the community. The entire support staff is friendly and genuinely care about the residents' satisfaction. When maintenance issues arise, they are completed efficiently and exceed expectations. This is a notable improvement from past reviews, which had not been as favorable. Under the new management's focus on quality services, The Paramount at Cedar Lodge Apartments now deserves the title of a "luxury apartment" community. The property is quiet, clean, and the staff's customer-centric approach is commendable. I would highly recommend this apartment community to anyone looking to live in Baton Rouge. The positive changes implemented by the new management team have created a welcoming and well-maintained living environment. Overall, the Paramount at Cedar Lodge Apartments is an excellent choice.

Paramount at Cedar Lodge Apartments truly lives up to its name as a premier living community. From the well-maintained grounds to the modern amenities, this complex offers a top-notch living experience. The apartments are spacious, beautifully designed, and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive to residents' needs. The location is convenient, with easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment options. I've been thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and responsiveness of the management team. Any maintenance requests are addressed promptly, and the overall atmosphere of the community is both welcoming and peaceful. If you're looking for a place to call home that combines comfort, convenience, and quality living, I highly recommend Paramount at Cedar Lodge Apartments. It's truly a gem in the area!

Moved in December 2019 with great excitement as anyone would be since it was my first accommodation in the U.S. Was greeted really well upon signing up and moved in hassle free. As they say Four days' of good times (moonlit nights), and then ensues bad times (darkness). The apartment was handed over dirty patio had spider webs, pests, laundry area was full of dirt and dust and kitchen cooktop had garbage behind it. Security Deposit and Other Costs: My refundable security deposit $150 was not refunded, They have a mandatory carpet cleaning fee $75 in the lease which they would adjust and rest $75 will be settled against mysterious charges and fees Maintenance: Poor- non responsive, need multiple follow-ups. Pool closed for more than a year, dog poop dustbins broken, house flies, spiders, webs Lease Transfers: They charge $400 transfer fee, new non-refundable pet fee, Don't even try this option they will confuse and trouble you to core and won't let you move in a different apartment with peace PEST CONTROL: As per the lease there was a scheduled pest control for every building but in my entire stay of 1.5 years it was done twice or at max thrice that too upon multiple requests from my end. There were spiders in the hallway, webs, filth, dirt and houseflies. Packages and Mails: The leasing office would not return your parcels after moving out if there is a delay in address forwarding or accidently if any of your parcels get delivered to the old address. Summary: Overall stay was ok, but management is bad and not at all supportive. Would not recommend this apartment to anyone who needs a clean and maintained space. Rentals are very high too.

I’ve lived here for two years and every encounter with the ladies at Enclave was amazing. Ms. Deb, she made us love her before even moving in! She helped us so much and made us feel at ease with any question we ever had. Then, my favorite out them all was Bre! Bre is just amazing at everything she does and was so down to earth. Cortana(I’m so sorry because I know I’m misspelling your name, is so laid back, but she WORKS HARD and is just as nice as Bre. Randy, who’s in maintenance, will help you with any problem you may have promptly. To be honest, we really didn’t have any maintenance issues—except when our sink had a leak; even though it was a Sunday, they sent someone out since it was an emergency. They had one shady maintenance guy, but he no longer works there, so there’s no need for me to mention the incident or his name. Now, I will say this, the parking is just atrocious! You will never have a great spot because for some reason everyone is piled in building 8 like sardines and I just tried to rack my head on that for two years. The parking situation was seriously annoying, especially on the weekends. If you think you was about to park in front your building then your faith is unmatched and you deserve all your blessings sis. We might actually move back next year to a two bedroom. We’re just hoping that the pricing can go down. The only reason we left because our rent kept going up and it didn’t make sense to pay that much for 697 square feet. We will gladly be keeping our eyes on the unit prices so we can return to our favorite place.

I have had this review written for months just waiting to get out and get our security deposit. I wasn't going to bother posting it if we got our security deposit back because at least they would have made it right. But now, not only do we not get our deposit back, we owe them $160 because of “pet damage” to the "new carpet"when you pay a pet fee AND security deposit. I will be honest and say that I really enjoyed my first six months of living at the Enclave. They were timely, responsive and kind Raeanna was great! However as soon as we hit that six month mark, that is when everything started happening. Slow response times, mandatory construction, and RUDE management. The property manager, however, was great and she helped me as much as she could with the transition to my new apartment. But, They did not cash my rent check until a week after i gave it to them and it was NSF. A MONTH LATER I come home to an eviction notice with 5 days to get out. NEVER have I had an incident with credit or NSF. We had to pay a $50 fee and DOUBLE rent that month because they didn’t cash the check. But that is just the tip of the Ice burg. My husband noticed a black spot In our corner of our bedroom. My husband decided to get up to the ceiling with a napkin and see what it was. It was like coffee grinds. I called mgmt they came 2 days later and said that they would get pest control out because they thought it was some kind of bug. 4 DAYS LATER pest control comes and I call the mgmt office to find out what kind of bug it is. “I’m sorry that is something that they tell the property manager, I’m not sure.” Excuse me?! WHAT IS LIVING IN MY ROOM? What ever it was, it chewed a hole straight through the wall to outside. We now know what kind of bug it was. Ew. THEN we come home to boarded up windows! Fully boarded with NO NOTICE. Banging on the walls when my husband is working nights and can’t sleep during the day because of the construction for the duration of the final months of our lease. I am beyond glad that we only signed a one year's lease and we got out as soon as we could. Management needs to get it together. Save yourself the trouble and spend a little more and go to Bristol Place! Loving it there! PS. Management: I know you are going to come under my review, comment, and try to defend yourself. That's fine, I respect that. I am bringing you your money. I will not put up a fight but I will share my inconvenience and my experience at the "luxurious" Enclave at Cedar Lodge.

The walls are thin. You will hear everything! Management sucks. Don’t waste your money, as I have

Overall good experience living here. Great location and very nice pool. Friendly maintenance staff. Couldn't ask for more.

I have very little complaints about The Enclave, it's located in a very safe part of town, and it's great for just about anyone: young professionals, families and anyone, really. While the prices might be a tad high -- around 1K for a one bedroom, the location (and grounds) makes up for it. You're technically "in" Townecenter, and a 15 second drive from Starbucks, PF Changs, Wholefoods and much more. Not to mention mere minutes away from Citiplace, Mall of LA, Walmart, downtown --and so forth. A lot of places in Baton Rouge are in crime-ridden areas, or in high college-student locations This is a great place to escape the college crowd, and get away from any shady places that you don't feel safe. The grounds are beautiful and extremely well kept. You're next to a horse farm which makes for beautiful balcony views, and both pools are immaculate. The parking garage makes moving in and parking very easy. The staff is also very friendly, accommodating and it's just an overall relaxed community. The main complaints I hear from others is that the walls are thin -- but personally, I've never heard or been bothered by neighbors. I'm also lucky to live on the top floor, which has beautiful 12 foot ceilings. Another complaint I hear is that the gym is a bit "subpar" for a luxury complex. I do agree! The gym is obviously a converted office space of some sort, but they recently added more machines, and to be honest, I rarely encounter others in there. So it gets the job done! Check this place out! It's in an ideal location!

I lived at the Enclave at Cedar Lodge for 2 years. I not once paid my rent late; I was quiet; I kept the apartment in the best shape it could be, despite everything being made of absolute garbage; and I paid the absurdly high (for BR) rent. Not only was it not worth the money, as everything in it was just thrown together with the cheapest materials, but Maintenance wouldn't even fix things. In a section of my apartment, the electrical did not work. I asked them to fix it, and they did not. There was a point when I had black mold, too. Upon leaving, they charged me over $600 in damages, which was outright insane. I will NEVER in my LIFE recommend this place to ANYONE.

I lived here 2 1/2 years and it is an absolutely great place to live. Quiet, nice amenities, etc. Upon moving out I received an letter that I owed 300 above the original deposit because of damage to the apartment. Saying blinds needed replacement (which I never used), glass stove top needed replacement which was seldomly used. When trying to contact the manager I left messages and they were never returned. This soured me completely from The Enclave and can't recommend staying there to anyone unless they are prepared to get the shaft when moving out.

I have lived at The Enclave since it opened, about 5 or 6 years ago, and I love it! I have lived in lots of other apartments, and The Enclave is the best! I would not live anywhere else. The location is perfect, and the staff, including maintenance, is amazing! Everything is kept up beautifully; when I look out my 3rd floor window, it's like looking over a luxury resort. The noise level is fine. Sure I occasionally hear very faint sounds from next door, but nothing loud. And never at night! I have lived in houses where I heard more noise from my neighbors. I think the office staff probably screens applicants pretty well. I can’t say enough about all the professional and helpful office staff! They are all great. In fact, at the end of last year, I considered moving to another apartment complex, just to be closer to my family (not to leave the Enclave!#. But that complex made a mess of my application, and, when I was about to move in, told me I could not move in when planned. That was the evening before I was supposed to move. So I rushed down to The Enclave office, to see if I could stay in my old apartment. Somehow I knew the Enclave staff would fix everything, and they did! It was 5:30 p.m. and I didn’t realize they were closing. But Terri and Beau, who were still there, closing up, insisted I stay there and let them help me! They made me feel as if all they wanted to do was help me. And they did help me! You don’t know how much that meant to me! Thank you! My old apartment had already been leased #it’s a great apartment, so I was not surprised#, but Terri and Beau went through all the records for something comparable I could move into the next day. That was when I needed to start moving. They had to search hard, since The Enclave is so popular, but they found a comparable apartment for me that I could immediately lease. It was only available because the person who was going to lease it had changed his mind at the last minute! Lucky me! It’s even on the third floor, and with as great a view as I had before! Beau even took me over to look at the apartment that evening, to make sure I would be comfortable with it! And Terri waited to see if I wanted it so she could reserve it for me. Of course I wanted it and am now happily moved in! All I can say is I love the Enclave and will only move when I decide to buy a house or move away. Thank you to the amazing Enclave staff #because they are all great!). You really do take care of your residents!!

After three years of paying rent on time, I have three months left on my lease. I cannot wait to move. They have blown through management and personnel, and it shows. Apparently, there is no longer a screening process. They know the walls are paper thin, but they still let people act like they are running disco halls in their apartments. Welcome to The Dump. I think they should change their name to The Dump on Gardere, previously known as The Enclave.
