Almost 7 years ago my wife- Linda, Mom- Anne, and I moved into The Orchard Apartment Homes. Words…read morecan't express the joy and excitement of finding such an amazing place that had everything you would want compared to owning without the maintenance and responsibilities. Amenities like garden plots that were tilled yearly, a refreshing pool open all year, well maintained gas grills with tanks readily available when they were empty, beautifully maintained grounds, and a wonderful dog park with artificial turf. The other thing that made us so elated was that we could beautify and decorate our place the way we wanted to make it truly our home if appropriate and didn't upset the neighbors. Unfortunately, in the past few years all that has changed. Well the pool is still open all year, for now anyways. We are only allowed a mat and a wreath for decorations, the grounds are no longer beautiful or properly kept, the grills are not maintained and tanks are always empty, the garden is a joke, dog park is in disrepair, dog receptacles are constantly overflowing, and there is always litter and dog waste all over the complex. What's so disheartening is there are many residents like us that love and care about our home and have sent requests to address these issues only to have them discarded or marked completed when nothing was done. I believe the majority of the blame falls on Blue Ridge Companies, who own and manage the property, but it seems that the office and/or maintenance staff either no longer cares or are forced not to care about our needs The Orchard Apartment Homes are listed as luxury living and when we first moved in I would totally agree with that statement. However, not anymore. I encourage friends, family, and other residents who see this post to please share to bring our beloved complex back to the way it was. If anyone from the media is interested in learning more, I would be happy to share more details since there is so much more to this story.

This was over a month ago and no one has EVER called me back to tell me when I bought the 4 or 5 bushes to see if they are still under guarantee. Very very poor customer service!
