I stayed at this complex and they falsely sued me for an eviction two months AFTER I moved out. Although Butler County court ruled in my favor, the company then sold the illegitimate debt to a debt collector. I have been dealing with this dishonest complex for years and am now forced to pay for a lawyer once again to sue them. Short of sleeping in your car, I would find anywhere else on earth to live rather than McCauly Crossing.

Horrible experience. We were lied to at our initial walk through. We were told the papers we signed were just an application and to confirm our spot on the waitlist. A few months later we decided to rescind our waitlist spot and were told we had actually signed a lease. We didn’t even have a unit assigned to us. We asked to break this as we were still months out from the move in and were told we could not. The employees at the office were awful and rude. The apartment we got itself was... disgusting. When we came to get the keys at the time they told us to be there we were turned away and told it was still being cleaned. We come back two hours later and the apartment we got was filthy. The employee who came with us to do the walk through even had to throw paper towels on the ceiling to knock cobwebs down. There was dirt all over the kitchen, pieces of the floor missing, and they hadn’t turned the water on. Throughout the year we lived there we had a horrible experience. The AC went out multiple times, the shower wall rotted and fell off, there were wasps in our unit all spring, management never salted in the winter so it was constantly iced over. Management was incredibly rude, unhelpful, and unresponsive. There were so many hidden fees upon move in and move out. We couldn’t wait to end our lease. DO NOT live here. Read More

At first glance, the apartment looked nice but the employee seemed nice. What they did not include in the tour was a list of the long and expensive non-refundable fees associated with the property so I thought I’d post them and pricing that were told to us only after asking. We were told a non refundable $399 admin fee, $100 application fee, non refundable $1000 pet fee (I’m not sure how you can claim to be pet friendly with this high of a non refundable fee), $100/month pet fee for 2 dogs,... ~$250 for water/sewage/internet/trash/cable, $100-150 for electricity, and $700 or $1600 deposit. These are just the fees they told me after asking and wouldn’t be surprised if there were more hidden fees after signing. At the end of the day, all the fees made this apartment way more expensive than the other nicer apartments in the area, even with the $200/a month discount. Make sure you’re ok with these fees before touring the property. Read More

Our apartment had mold and wasnt clean the first day we moved in. Nothing was done to accomodate.

Definitely NOT a five star community. It seemed okay when showing and they made the bundles and included utilities seem like a deal without mentioning that the trash valet (not optional) will run you $70 a month regardless if they actually pick up your trash or leave it at your door for a week. My apartment was 'recently renovated' and by that they mean they spray painted the cabinets black (it's mostly chipping off) and poorly laid some vinyl flooring. The apartment is not safe and is only... quiet depending on where in the complex you live...Fields Ertel is a busy road and there is a fire station right next door. I will say the location is convenient to everything I need but I wish I had looked at more apartments...there are better apartments out there for this price range. ALSO it is not a 'special' to offer one month free rent if you ALWAYS offer it. As for the safety check out the wooded areas and you'll notice alcohol bottles discarded (meaning drunk people just wonder around the complex looking for cars to break into) also be sure to look at the lock on the apartment door!! I didn't notice until I moved in but it is weak. Read More
