                  Lived at Wildforest for over a year and I would not recommend living there. The only reason I ended up living there was because I needed a place on short notice and they had a unit available. These apartments are extremely overpriced especially since theā€¦Ā See More >

                          Wildforest advertises as and claims to be a "luxury apartment complex." That is laughable. While the apartment is spacious, the interior is falling apart.

                              The apartments have been taken over by new management, who have been very helpful. While the materials of the apartment don't quite live up to the "luxury" name, you cannot beat the location. The front office staff (the new staff) are extremely helpful,ā€¦Ā See More >
