OK

Only giving 2 stars because it's not the worst but the cons really outweigh the pros. Prepare for the thinnest walls ever made, you can hear your neighbors' conversations as well as them peeing and coughing in the morning in the bathroom. Hallways are outdated and have a stench. There is nothing luxury or updated about the apartments, yet they charge you like they are and will only give you short term lease renewal options in order to raise your rent sooner. Constant "inspections" they've... entered up to 3 times a week, sometimes WITHOUT notice.

They once repaired a wall that had mold and left a large machine in the middle of our living room "drying" it over the weekend and were told to not unplug. It shot up my already high electric bill by almost $100 that I was responsible for. Moved out a few months ago and the process was a total nightmare dealing with the clueless office personnel.

Lived There Two Years - Mostly Positive Experinece

We lived in Riverwood for two years and it was overall a positive experience. The apartments are nice and the buildings are well kept. Their management was always responsive. And the staff they hire work to actively maintain and improve the property. For example they installed amazon drop boxes and replaced the dim lights in the garage with bright ones.

I think the potential concerns you might want to consider are:
- Thin walls in a family/pet friendly building means a lot of noise if you don't...
get good neighbors. Especially if you live on the 2nd floor.
- Maintenance crew was sometimes frustrating to work with. Slow response times, lack of clear communication, poor quality repair jobs that only temporarily fixed the issues.
- Not all units get good natural light. Some face the tree line and get literally no natural light at any point in the day.

But some of the positive things we enjoyed while we lived there were the access to the pool, plentiful parking, quiet for in the city, privacy (we lived along the tree line), proximity to parks and stores, friendly neighbors, secure building, no issues with mail ever, decent trash/dumpster service, variety of apartment types and sizes to choose from when moving in, under building garage, and a safe and pleasant community.

If your looking to as close to affordable housing as you can find in Oak Creek, I would say Riverwood is a good option.

WARNING!!! Do not fall for the gimmick

Do not sign a lease with this place!!!! They lie with a description of luxury. It’s not. Save yourself time, money, agony and despair. The staff is incompetent and on a power trip to make sure you know your place as a rent check & nothing else. The building & property is cheap & trashy with paper thin walls (I could hear snoring, talking, tv, walking, flushing, doors & urinating!). Any requests for repairs will be met with copy/paste responses but no action. It’s surrounded by swamp and trains... so hope you like noise & bugs. The area has places leaps & bounds better for the price. This place steals security deposit too. Just don’t do it. I’m glad to be out but I feel bad for the ones left there.

We are very sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience while living at our apartment community. We have many longtime residents and past residents that do not share your same opinion. Although we are surprised by your comments, we take... them very seriously and would like the opportunity to discuss any issues with you personally. We keep our property professionally maintained with the highest standards. Anyone that drives by our community will notice the professional landscaping and immaculately kept grounds. We also pride ourselves with responding to work orders within 24-48 hours and if we find that we cannot repair an item ourselves, we have top-rated vendors who will attend to our residents’ needs. While living in an apartment has its advantages, noise can be expected from time to time. With that being said, we take all complaints very seriously and would have addressed any and all concerns within reason.

From your comments, it leads us to believe that you did not receive some or all of your security deposit back. Typically, security deposits are withheld for damages or due to money owed for rent or lease breaks. We welcome you to contact us directly to discuss your concerns and wish you the best in your new home.

Sincerely,
The Staff at Riverwood Estates.

Utter Disaster Disguised As Luxury

Never have I lived in a more poorly ran, maintained, and expensive apartment. Management is nonexistent in regards to tenant needs or concerns. Their “pet friendly” status is used solely to sucker you in, don’t be fooled. You are not treated like a valued tenant, you are treated like an ATM machine. Loud trains, paper thin walls, trashy property, and dictatorship management...MUCH BETTER options in the Oak Creek area. My heart goes out to the people living there.

Terrible.

Riverwood is awful. Everything is an issue with these people- especially if you have pets. Constantly changing policies and clearly have such terrible lives they take it out on tenants. Take this advice from the most relaxed people. Before moving in take the time to talk to residents who live there. We were told it was awful and regret our years spent there.

We are proud to be a very dog friendly community. With that being said, we have established specific guidelines which allow our residents the privilege of keeping their pets happy as well as allow our residents to feel safe from other pets. All... residents are required to sign the Pet Addendum prior to moving in. The pet addendum specifically states all dogs must be kept on a leash at all times when in common areas. The policy also states that there is a fine imposed for not doing so. We did not impose this fine last week and instead chose to remind you of the leash requirement. We are sorry that you are disappointed with our staff for reminding you of our guidelines with regards to your dog being off leash.
Regarding offering incentives for positive reviews, this is not something our company believes in. Every resident may have a different experience at our community and our residents that post a positive review should not be discredited. We welcome all feedback.
