This apartment complex has been open for roughly a year and a half. There are a total of 10 units,…read moreand the landlord currently running it is a friendly elderly man named Floyd Craft, who owns the Ben Franklin store across the street. After being scammed by another apartment business in town, my family called the rental department of the city and was given this man's contact information. We talked with him and set up an appointment to see all of the apartments available at the time for rent (at the time I think at least 5 were still vacant). Every apartment is a little bit unique in its design and they look amazing. There are 1 & 2 bedroom units, some with one bathroom, others with two. This complex was built from the ground up, and everything is brand new and high quality materials. The apartments have a secure PED access and video entry to get in. There is an updated fire safety system with sprinklers. Every apartment has digital whole-unit heating and A/C that they control for themselves. The units are capable of setting up cable, internet, and landlines, but if you want any of these, you have to incur the costs. The rent varies around $1500 or more a month, which includes all utilities including electric (except cable, internet, or phones). Every tenant is given their own mailbox that's opened with a key, and it's not difficult to get packages. You also get a parking spot for each tenant. Trash is taken out to a common dumpster by the entrance to the building and is easy to find.The maintenance person, Jeff, is very good at getting to you to fix things pretty quickly, and if he cannot come in an emergency, the landlord or someone will help. The management is very organized and I love that this place is so secure. Most of the neighbors I have seen are pretty friendly, but I don't see them much due to their work schedules. I absolutely love living here and am very happy that I found this place. The downtown location is also great, as it is very close to the BGSU campus, local shopping, and many nice restaurants and bars. So many great places are just a short walk from the main doors. It is honestly the best apartment complex you will find in Bowling Green, and possibly even the entire county. If you are looking for an apartment, this is a great choice, but it's also limited in spaces

It would legitimately be easier and cheaper to buy a house in BG than trying to work with…read moreGreenbriar. I've rented 2 different locations with them. The first location was an apartment, and we constantly had issues with ants that were never dealt with properly. They also were very slow to ice the sidewalk, and the stairs were out of code so they were a constant danger in the winter. We checked everything when we moved out to make sure there was no damage other than what we noted when we moved in. When we left, they said we damaged paint and blamed us for the heat not working (they never fixed it when we mentioned it SEVERAL TIMES) so, in addition to taking months to process, we didn't get our deposit back. We stayed at the second location for 2 years because we didn't want to deal with the hassle of moving everything again. The rent for the second location went up $50 after renewing it after the first year, and there were no improvements made to the house to justify that. The place didn't even have a dishwasher, and we constantly had problems with mice, which they didn't fix. There was not a single level line in the entire house. I think that a group of chimpanzees with hammers could probably build a better structure. The top of one of the doors was cut at probably a 30 degree angle to match the equally janky trim surrounding it. The flooring was very sketchy as well. You couldn't see anything wrong in the photos because of the god-awful brown carpet, but the entire floor bowed wildly, and the sub-floor was missing sections, creating weird divots. The electrical system in the house was also concerning to say the least. A couple of the outlets were these weird 4 plug abominations that were super loose and lacked any ground pins. One of the outlets in the living room wasn't attached to the wall, so if you tried to unplug something it pulled the entire outlet out. One of the bedrooms only had one single outlet, and was clearly just made by separating a larger bedroom into two unreasonably small ones. The house also had central AC and heat, but most of the rooms were set up incorrectly, with only air out, or, in the case of the one-outlet bedroom, were entirely left out of the system. Because they refuse to update anything, the only options for internet are cable companies (don't even get me started on spectrum) with no other real options. Fiber internet would be available in most of their properties, but they don't have it installed because they're cheap and you can't get it installed yourself because of their "no improvements" rule. Because they have what is in all ways a monopoly on student housing in BG, they can charge whatever they feel like for these cheaply built, poorly maintained shacks. This is a horrible, immoral company that does not deserve your money.

Its located within walking distance of all my BG favorites, mainly Myles Pizza and Pita Pit. The one rub, which is kinda a big one is the unfortunate fact that it sits 25 yards away from a railroad track. It took me sometime to get used to the frequent passing locomotive at 330am in the morning, but it was always something guests had a hard time getting used too.

The staff are friendly, and have always responded quickly to my requests for maintenance assistance. They happily replaced my refrigerator after issues with the freezer keeping it cold. I've also enjoyed the pool - it is well-kept, and open from around Memorial Day through Labor Day. The laundry room is generally clean, and I've never had a problem with machine availability. Currently, at $1.25 per load the cost proves manageable. I wish the laundry room were open 24/7, but have certainly been able to work with the 8am-10pm hours. You can walk to downtown in about 10 minutes, and BGSU is a 20-25-minute walk, a c. 10-minute bike ride, or 5-minute drive away. Summit Terrace also offers a shuttle service to campus and possibly a few other locations??, which I have not used extensively but would certainly be a plus for those without a car. Mostly students, young families, and some retired folks live here. The atmosphere is generally quiet and friendly, which I have appreciated! Feels safe, my apartment is quite spacious, and rent is reasonable for the quality of living. I would definitely recommend Summit Terrace as an ideal BG apartment complex!

We also had mice, which the apartment couldn't seem to take care of because their exterminator wouldn't come out. Most disgusting living experience ever.

They do not care about their residents. I have rented two properties from them- both had TONS of black mold that was covered up by vinyl or mats. They did not allow me to tour one of the apartments beforehand, and when I reach out with concerns, they give attitude and are rude. I have an ESA, and even after turning in all required paperwork, they somehow LOST IT then tried charging me almost $1,000 for having my ESA. Do not rent from Mecca, you will regret it. They care about money and nothing else. I can honestly say I have never experienced anything positive with them. The photos below are of mold when I moved in.

Located by the 75 on-ramp and behind Fricker's, these apartments have great proximity to gas stations, restaurants, Meijer, and BGSU campus, all while tucked away from a lot of street activity.

Though the price may be a little high compared to other options around BG, you're not just paying for living space, you're paying for excellent accommodating management (that doesn't hound you for rent), immediate and attentive maintenance service, and a great great location that's connected to a local city park. The management of this complex also manages UHaul service and storage units for all your moving needs. Studio apartments are also available for around $400/month.

This place is the most poorly managed place I lived…read more When I first moved in the place was filthy from past tenants and instead of fixing it they through the damages and everything onto the next. I even called maintenance to fix my toilet they sent me the a notification that is was fixed and it never was. They do this while also being very predatory towards tenants asking to sign new housing agreements not to far after you JUST move in. They know most of their residents are students with very little options and time to make these decision within there time, but that will not stop them from rising rent. Risen rent with nothing done to the interior of the house. Instead they will make changes like painted the patio which in my opinion doesn't justify a monthly increase. The maintenance of the amenities aren't up to par either. I appreciate and grate for them having a gym, but equipment will be broken for months and things like water filter, fountain, and equipment aren't change or cleaned regularly. On a personal level things were made very unclear to me and sneaky. The deposit was held and used for insane cleaning fees with even though in my contract it was supposed to be deferred until the end of my lease. Which I tried to call the office about, but they aren't much help and will tell you to talk to a higher up that is never going to respond. I sent an email in April for an explanation for everything. After multiple conversations and calls I never got a response. The only redeeming thing is that you moving into a furnished apartment

I called pest control for a roach infestation and they had to send out a "representative" to my unit and now I am being threatened to be charged because my unit is "not meeting the cleanliness standards" they mysteriously set for their units. This is after coming back from a week vacation and finding my back door to my unit **LEFT OPEN**. When I told the rep that forced himself into my personal room without consent he literally argued back and said "they wouldn't do that". Someone from management came through and literally didn't close the back door which let in roaches to my garbage can and then they spread to my ENTIRE unit. Terrible awful company, this is my last year here and I am never looking back. They are literally so bad, it's so confusing and frustrating how could a company like this even exist. Horrible and invasive management, poor amenities, poor living conditions, and our unit is basically falling apart with cracks in multiple walls that they will not fix. Don't forget if you call pest control they will force themselves into your personal room and space without consent and go through your personal stuff "to find bugs". Tried to contact management to deal with a roommate conflict and they said I "threatened and bullied my roommates" with absolutely no context to what actually happened. They do not care. The upstairs units are like a sauna and the basement units are extremely cold. Also the floors have basically no soundproofing at all. If you get put into a basement unit (which you might not have any choice) you will be woken up at 6:00 am by your roommates going to work, class etc. Its so loud their footsteps sound like someone taking a hammer to my wall. The conditions are unlivable here. My quality of life is so bad I am considering breaking my lease agreement just to leave. It's that bad. AVOID COPPER BEECH AT ALL COSTS. AWFUL COMPANY WITH APPALLING LIVING CONDITIONS. 0/10 I do NOT recommend. Let them go bankrupt they have gone completely corporate and greedy. Profits are their only goal now.
