Resident ā€¢ 2015 - 2016

12/31/2016

Do I like living here? Yes. Would I recommend this complex to others? Yes. The location is great. It's hidden in the back of a subdivision and surrounded by woodland trees. It has easy access to 435 & 69 highways and there is sidewalk that connects to the Indian Creek Trail. There are grocery stores, shops, coffee places, malls, and restaurants all nearby, in fact if you are up for it you could even walk or bike to them. Lenexa, Leawood, and Olathe are about a 15 minute drive away and it's about 30 minutes to downtown KC and the Legends. The complex is older, but in my opinion well maintained. In the last year they've done a whole overhaul on the outside of all the buildings with new paint, sidewalks, and landscaping. This may have annoyed some residents but to me I appreciate that they are taking care of the place. I'm in a one bedroom unit and it's got just the right amount of space for me. The best thing is the washer and dryer in unit. The appliances are older and are that tannish off white color that kind of yellows as it ages, all the cabinets are brown wood, the walls are off white, and the carpet is beige. It maybe be lacking in modern style but again everything is well maintained. The parking is decent. I always have a spot no matter how late I come home in the evening. The landscaping is kept up with. The roads, parking, and sidewalks are salted and shoveled when there is snow or ice. We are surrounded by trees which means woodland creatures are around. This is a good and not so good thing depending on who you are. For me I like seeing the occasional deer and I can tolerate the early morning chirping of the birds. If you have an irrational fear of tiny eight legged bugs then this is not the place for you as spiders are going to be your roommates. Waterford offers pest control every month but let's be real you're living in the middle of the woods and this is the Midwest, so no matter how many times pest control comes out you're probably going to see a spider still. If you're a light sleeper the other annoying woodland creatures are the crickets and the tree frogs that just don't want to shut up on those warm summer nights. Get a sound machine and you'll be fine. On the whole this is a quiet complex. Again, it's older so the walls are thin and like any older home or apartment you will occasionally hear someone walking around or if they are outside on the balcony or in the parking lot you can hear their conversation. There are a couple of dogs that can get a little yippy when they are left outside on the balconies but that's about it. Most of the residents I've seen are people in their late 20s-50s so they've all thankfully moved past their parting stage or party somewhere else. There are a few children running about but thankfully well behaved and not noticeably noisy. Andrea the manager is fantastic. She's welcoming and friendly and works with her staff to make sure any issue is taken care of swiftly. I have only had 2 minor issues with my apartment in the year that I've been here and both were taken care of the day I reported them. Any time the staff needs to enter your place they always give you advance notice and even leave a note to let you know that they've been there. I've renewed my lease and plan to stay here as long as my unit stays in my price range. If you're looking for a quiet place to call home then I would suggest checking Waterford Place out. *NO one asked me or bribed me to write this review. I'm writing this because I always read reviews of things before I invest in them. Reviews have helped me make good decisions and it's my hope that this honest review will help another person make a decision that's right for them. *
