Sierra Oaks

If you ever need any type of help for any reason once you move in, you will not receive assistance from the office staff or the company that owns these apartments.

After living here for a year and wishing I'd not signed another year lease, I can safely say this complex isn't all it seems. Neighbors are increasingly inconsiderate. My wife and I can hear the toddlers below us running around for 6+ hours a day with nothing being done about it. Ants are everywhere. Parking is a crapshoot depending on what time you arrive (8am-11am is fine, after that good luck). People drive through the complex with their radio cranked to max. Noise from Christoffersen/Golden State has gotten worse over the 13 months we've been here. My wife and I are moving out as soon as we can. Sadly that won't be until December when they're going to try and raise our rent another $140 a month again.

ZERO STAR IS APPROPRIATE!!!I have lived in this apartment for three years and the services are really poor . The external apartments are dirty; staircase and surroundings. There are always dumpster divers rummaging through trash and possible a property to vandalize. Most residents have checkered past with is a scary situation; I experienced a situation of a resident willfully pouring tons of water on my vehicle below his apartment. I don’t know if that was race motivated or just pure hate; cops were also called. High school student gather in the apartment parking lot to smoke weed and cops are called as a result. My vehicles have been vandalized twice and nothing was done. I will keep the list short and let new occupant find out themselves.

The management was great about resolving issues in and outside the units. The property was kept clean. The grounds are dog friendly. Sierra Oaks is convenient to both Turlock and Highway 99 to get to Modesto or Merced. The apartments were solid. The fixtures in the units could vary depending upon when the last renovation was done. The pool and workout space are great. They are centrally located so not far from either side of the complex. Maintenance was responsive and got work done. The apartment above us was vacant and the water heater in it started knocking which they gladly fixed when we brought it to their attention. There were only 2 cons. The train is super loud on the west side of the complex and can be felt throughout. The gate is almost always open so don't count on it for security.

I live here for a year. Worst apartments ever! Staff is lazy and the apartments inside are cheap. First day we moved in the walk-in closet fell off from the wall it took them 2 days to fix it. There was dogs living there before us, and on the bottom of the walls there was hair mixed with the paint. Toilet handle was broken too was never fixed. The manager doesn't even live there because of how expensive and someone broke into her apartment and they took her tv and many electronics that she had. I would not recommend living here. And also they're cameras don't work.

I have had friends that have temporarily lived in an apartment here and it was great. The place is very nice and well put together. The people are respectful and the property is nice and clean inside and out.
