Runaway Bay: Mgmt could have made our stay better (Not Recommending)

2009-05-09T14:47:17-06:00

From -Anonymous-: When we initially moved in, we were elated. We moved here from South Texas, and we loved the fact that we could choose an apartment overlooking water. However, perhaps this is just a northern thing, but I have NEVER heard of anything such as a pet rent! 30 dollars a ... [click to read full apartment review]

2009-03-18T08:15:47-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I really enjoyed my time at Runaway Bay and only signed a lease there because they told me that they had an affordable month to month plan after my year lease expired.

Runaway Bay: Runaway is Alright (Recommending!)

2009-01-30T11:02:15-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Runaway Bay is a nice place to live. Like any average priced apartment complex, there are ups and there are downs.

Runaway Bay: They'll find a way to screw you (Not Recommending)

2008-06-26T04:56:34-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Living at Runaway Bay itself isn't bad, but the management sucks. Rent was constantly going every time we renewed our lease at least $ 40 a month. Read all fine print in the lease.

2008-03-06T15:16:28-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Everyone seems to be talking about how bad Runaway Bay is, but I have had an overall positive experience.

2007-08-03T19:41:53-06:00

2007-03-14T17:28:40-06:00

Runaway Bay: Runaway Bay Sucks (Not Recommending)

2006-06-16T21:00:16-06:00

Runaway Bay: Bait and Switch - 2006 management specialty (Not Recommending)

2006-06-05T18:28:26-06:00

From RentingAgain06: Happy06 and --anonymoushit the nail on the head, I found the 2006 management regime, er, team, to be a disaster for people renting here.

2006-05-25T22:23:32-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have to echo the thoughts of those who have complained about the 2006 management team. When I moved in back in 2005 things were great and it seemed to be a pretty good place to be. But, as another reviewer has mentioned; this place lives and dies by it's ...

Runaway Bay: Beware of new management (2006) (Not Recommending)

2006-04-08T00:00:46-06:00

From 06happy06: I've rented here off and on for several years. I've found that life here is sensitive to the management-de-jour. Many of the good ratings here trace to times when management was good. And vice-versa. Following their latest management change (2006), I opted to leave again - this time for good. ... [click to read full apartment review]

From -Anonymous-: This place allows dogs but no one cleans up the crap. the managers don't care and the dog owners are lazy. There are puppies who piss on the sidewalk, it is gross.

Runaway Bay: FALSE PROMISES, NO PRIVACY (Not Recommending)

2004-10-27T19:59:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Great location. Grounds are nice. False promises. Don't believe anything they say---get it in writing.

If ... [click to read full apartment review]
