    Evidence of rat eating our food
    Renee P.

    I wish a lower rating were possible. If you think these look cute from the outside and have a good location, you would be right, but I cannot implore you enough to find somewhere else to live. It is clear the management company seeks to do things as cheaply and poorly as they can get away with. We never were able to see the unit before we moved in or we would have never moved our infant and toddler into a home so filthy. We have dealt with a mess of dog hair and smell since we moved in, and their refusal to replace urine stained carpet. Then, when our washer stopped draining because the pipes were inadequate, it took them almost a month to send the cheapest plumbers possible who did not patch up the wall. Still management was aware that there was a giant hole in our wall, and did nothing. UNTIL, the rats came and began to live in our walls and eat our food. The emergency line was not working, and no manager was available to reach on the weekend. So we moved our family to a hotel, fully informing them our house with rat feces was uninhabitable. They let us know that they would not clean nor pay for our hotel, which is against the law. We are still awaiting their response, while the rat feces continues to accumulate where our children play and sleep. We are not the only neighbors who are victims of this unjust behavior. You will be happier if you find ANYWHERE else to live in Folsom. Steer clear of FPI Management in general.

    **** we have now caught FOUR rats INSIDE our unit. These rats have been literally nesting in my home where my kids play and crawl. Disgusting! The problem has gotten worse since my last review and because management believes they are "diligent" about the issue, doesn't make this situation any better. The lack of compassion and understanding is just baffling. Other then allowing us to break out of our lease (which still isn't in writing, so may not be true) FPI has done nothing to Alleviate the trauma and financial burden this has caused my family. **** Hoping writing this review will get the attention of the terrible management at this complex and maybe, just maybe they will handle things like a decent human being. I truly don't know where to start. The place is a joke. It's an 800 ft.² cottage from hell! Literal, hell. First- there is NO central heating and air. Non! Our bill during the summer is $200!! Yes... TWO-HUNDRED! Annnd... we get a discount of $40 bucks. (I'll post a photo)We're lucky to get the "living room" cool. But don't plan on leaving that area because the rest of the place is in the 90's (proof in pictures) management claims the ac is "working" if it blows cold air..... eye roll! My 3 year old refuses to sleep in his room because of the heat and chooses to sleep on the living room floor. This is unacceptable and all because they won't replace our shit-for-air AC unit. I am also a victim of the rats!!!! (Proof in photos) but not only do we have rats (currently) we have had cock roaches, ant infestation (in the house) and yellow-jackets! Oh yes, and there is more! Mold! This place reeks of mildew. But the old onsite manager says his house smells like that too, it's "normal." My dish washer has flooded, TWICE! The washer and dryer hardly does it's job. But again, management says it works! With all these incidents, you'd think FPI would help in some way... ie- rent compensation, maybe clean my house of all the rat filth, (verbatim of management when asked about cleaners..." it was only a one time thing, in one room. We won't be sending cleaners") gift card to buy cleaning supplies.... SOMETHING!!! They DO. NOT. CARE. about their tenants. It's the weekend... i STILL have a rat problem my dish washer STILL doesn't work BUT it's okay! Whoever owns this place is sitting pretty on my dime. The dumpsters, on a weekly basis, are overfilled with trash and furniture and on occasion-trash diggers! (Proof, again, in photos) the people who come to cut the lawns on thursdays, nap against my unit & next to my car. As far as I'm concerned, these people are strangers to me. Making it very uncomfortable getting in and out of my car with two children. I HATE living here. It's not worth the $1500 for 800 ft.² it's no wonder they are trying to sell the property and have gone through THREE maintenance workers in my year and a half stay. I've lived in apartments and condos for 7 years and never, ever been treated this way. FPI should be ashamed.

    I love all the big trees!

    I have lived here for almost 2 years and have loved it! They recently replaced the windows for the entire property which made it look a lot nicer as well as more efficient to heat and cool. I have a unit with Hardwood floors and a large back yard. It is everything me and my dog could ask for. They are a little older, but have been maintained well and they have a great maintenance guy that is good to fix any issues that come up. I'm also happy to have my own washer/dryer and assigned parking space. I have never experienced any of the other issues as reported by other yelpers and all of my neighbors are very friendly and say hi to us anytime we are out walking the property. It is the perfect location too! Close to Sutter Street and Old Folsom. We love to walk down there and see all the cute shops and go to the farmers market every Saturday. It's a great smaller community in the heart of Old Folsom. I'm consider myself lucky I found such a great place renting sight unseen online. Definitely worth a look!

The only thing I have to say is don't even bother cleaning your apartment when you move out and just let them take it out of the security deposit. My wife and I worked hard to clean our apartment and followed everything they said during the pre-move out inspection and they only returned $50 out of our entire $500 deposit due to "$250 carpet cleaning" and a $200 sewage bill that was way higher than any we received while there. Just let them clean it for you and don't go through all that work, you won't get your money back anyway.

    A Luxurious Living Experience at Fairmont at Willow Creek…read more Living at the Fairmont at Willow Creek Apartments has been a truly magnificent experience. From the moment I moved in, I have felt like I entered a space of pure luxury. The entire community is beautifully designed and perfectly maintained. The pool area is stunning and includes a barbecue setup that is perfect for relaxing or spending time with friends and neighbors. The property is always clean, well-kept, and visually appealing. The staff, especially Manager Carrie and her team, have been nothing but kind, professional, and easy to approach. They genuinely care about the residents and ensure that everything runs smoothly. Their attention to detail and dedication are exceptional. The location is also ideal. Fairmont at Willow Creek is close to shopping centers, fine dining, fast food restaurants, and two major malls. Whether you are on a tight budget or looking for upscale options, Folsom, California, offers every kind of shopping and dining experience. If you are considering a new place to call home, I highly recommend Fairmont at Willow Creek. Please feel free to mention that Faith Moore referred you--I would love to help welcome more great neighbors to the community.

    I moved in 7 months ago. Where do I start with my…read moreconcerns.... management is RUDE - ... when you walk into the front office they have a demeanor of "why are you in here", or "what concern do you have that I can tell management about, and have them do nothing about it." First Issue - I was in the front office to use the public access iPad and printer that they have out to print out (5) papers - One of the managers came over as I was grabbing my papers from the printer, she told me that I'm not supposed to be doing this....? A week later, I needed a single page printed - the public iPad had been reconfigured with an access lock on it and the ladies told me that no-one can use that, or the printer. Awesome help, for the 2K a month I spend to live here. Second major concern - I was told the second community center would be open a few months after I had moved in - it's been 7 months. I asked again recently and "they're not looking at opening it anytime soon." This is ridiculous.... Third major concern - the main gym. A month into living here, the 55, 60, & 65lb dumbbells were removed or stolen. I am an active body builder and need these. I was informed by management that they would be replacing them in just a few weeks - that was 6 months ago and they HAVEN'T been replaced. Fourth major Concern, I live on the second floor and I have algae and dirt scum on my steps leading up to my apartment. It is a hazard for how bad it is. Management and Maintenance both said that they would take care of it and pressure wash it for me. After having to ask three times, when I was already affirmed that they would handle it, their response now is "We don't have a pressure washer." Seriously absurd. Fifth and last concern, The hot-tubs are warm at best, they're not hot. Disappointing, because I love a nice hot hot-tub, warm ones are bleh. I love this location and where I live but management, timeliness, and false accusations are not okay from a public service community team. They should spend a little money, and act on what they say they are going to do or be fixed to make the tenants happy. I pay a ton to live here at Sherwood, Folsom, CA.

    we lived in the Sherwood apartments 3 different times in 3 different sizes. The 2 story 3 bedroom…read morewas our favorite. We liked how the patio had a door from the bedroom and from the kitchen to the outside. Upstairs was nice with 2 bedrooms. The master bedroom was downstairs. The living room was pretty small for it being a 3 bedroom apartment. If I had to live in any apartments in Folsom again this is where I would live. The location is one of the best. You can walk right to the Palladio. Walk to the movies, shopping, 2 grocery stores, many fast food locations, restaurants and even Sam's club. for having kids this is a great location. Lots of families live here and go to Gold Ridge Elementary School which is only about a 12 min walk though the neighborhood. You will find lots of families walking their kids too and from school daily. This complex is also gated. Even though it is gated, we did have our car stolen and the Sheriff found it 12 hours later in a ditch by Loomis..... car theft is pretty common amongst the apartment complexes in Folsom no matter if they are gated or not (it really does not matter)

Over these three years, we have noticed several issues that do not reflect the standards of a luxury apartment community. However, we have never submitted a complaint because we hoped these issues would be addressed. This is our first official complaint. Unfortunately, what we recently experienced is not the first time we have seen conditions like this, but it is the first time we feel we can no longer accept them. The photos attached were all taken in Building 1000. These conditions are unacceptable for a property that markets itself as a luxury apartment community. In particular, the hallway carpets have been consistently dirty. Throughout the three years we have lived here, we have never seen the hallway carpets professionally cleaned. In addition, the carpet inside the elevator is almost always covered with dog hair, making it appear poorly maintained and unhygienic. The overall cleanliness and upkeep of the common areas fall far below the standards that residents should expect, especially considering the premium rent we pay. We respectfully ask the management team to take responsibility for maintaining the property to the level promised to residents. We hope immediate action will be taken to improve the cleanliness and maintenance of the common areas and to ensure these unacceptable conditions do not happen again. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. We look forward to seeing meaningful improvements.

The plumbing is really terrible (see picture)! Don't recommend these expensive, gross and dingy apartments to anyone. The property also has too many smokers and the office staff does not do anything to enforce a family-friendly environment. I ended up moving out within few months and ended up sending a detailed set of images to prove to the management that the property managers on-site are dishonest and lazy.

It was only my boyfriend and I who lived here We noticed our smud bill was rising in June of 2023 out of nowhere and we were confused because we haven't started using any new appliances or devices so we asked Management to check our ac unit to see if there was anything wrong. The maintenance guy came back to us saying they checked it and nothing was wrong and to contact SMUD to see what was wrong. (NO REAL TECHNICIAN WAS CHECKING IT). So from June all the way to September when we moved out, our smud bills were over $300 sometimes $500. And within this timeframe smud has been in contact with us , checking every device appliance outlet that was got and they even told us that even if we left EVERY device or appliance on 24/7 it shouldn't be NEAR the amount we were paying. So again in August I reached out to management and they sent a REAL TECHNICIAN into our unit and saw that the ac unit was messed with causing the AC to wrack up all these bills. Now we have over $1000 in smud bills and management isn't doing anything about it to help. We've been in contact with Management since sempteber looking to find a solution to this. We even asked if they would so kindly reimburse us for the smud bills we had to pay. Nothing. If only they sent a real technician in the first time, we wouldn't be stuck with these bills that are INSANE Heather Kelsey all of them have not been of any help to our situation and just stopped communicating to us about this issue.

I guess no one likes to follow the rules that's stated on the lease. The amenities looks dirty so don't even bother using it. I warn anyone wanting to live here or still live here to get out as soon as you are able to. As this place has been declining rapidly in so many ways. Maintenance is to be desirable if you want anything to be done in a timely matter or correctly, very unprofessional. Lots of other tenants seem to have similar issues. Notes on office door with complaints. Such as water heater exploding from old water heater to mold. I wouldn't be surprised if this complex has roaches and internal structure damage on the foundation. Do your homework and look at other review sites and not just this one. Even the sister property overlook has awful reviews. Do they not keep up with servicing these things and just wait for it to flood someone's apartment. Hopefully you are not downstairs as all your stuff will be ruined. The cons outweighs the pros on a massive scale. If you are looking to live Folsom look elsewhere as it is not worth it. Maybe that's why everyone doesn't stay long. Good Riddance!

Parking is an absolute nightmare. If you have guests over or come home later in the evening, good luck finding a spot anywhere near your apartment. I had the privilege of living in an apartment that had an attached garage, but of course we didn't have an island in the kitchen, so everything just seemed super meshed together. The front office was consistently one of the worst parts of living here. The staff was almost always rude, unprofessional, and rarely seemed to know what was going on. There is such a high turnover that every time you walk into the office, it's a completely different person, and chances are the employee you spoke with last week doesn't even work there anymore. It often felt like random employees from other properties were filling in, (which is exactly what was happening) with little knowledge of the residents or the property itself. The mail room is another disaster. Instead of packages being delivered to your door like many other complexes, residents are expected to dig through piles and piles of boxes trying to locate their own deliveries. It's disorganized and frustrating. The apartments themselves are overpriced for what you get. The living rooms are surprisingly tiny, making the layouts feel cramped. I was one of the first residents in my particular unit, and the smoke alarms were SO sensitive. Simply using the oven would set them off constantly, no matter what I was cooking. When I had a newborn, it became incredibly stressful and disruptive. After countless false alarms, I was so frustrated that I ended up removing the alarm altogether just to avoid waking my baby every time I cooked. Even more concerning, someone who later moved into my former apartment reached out to me and told me they were dealing with mold issues and that the complex wasn't addressing them. Given my own experiences, that was very disappointing to hear. The one genuinely positive thing I can say is that the maintenance team was responsive and usually showed up in a timely manner when requests were submitted. They deserve credit for that. Overall, Broadstone Villas was an extremely disappointing experience. Between the rude and disorganized front office, constant staff turnover, chaotic mail room, terrible parking, cramped layouts, and concerning reports of mold, I left feeling relieved to be moving out. There are far better places to spend this kind of money.
