Do not rent from this place or any other first lake properties. Made myself very clear when I…read morelooked at apartments there that I did not want to hear any noise from the apartment above me because of my medical conditions (PTSD and extreme migraine headaches) and was told that I would not. The first night in the apartment I heard every foot step, people talking and even going to the bathroom. After I refused to live there , I was kicked out but told that I still had to pay 90 days rent and other cost . Well I have filed a complaint with the state attorney general's office and trying to find a lawyer to file a federal law suit against them for fraud.

I only toured this apartment complex, never lived here. But the main reason I will not live here is…read morebecause every single unit we viewed had carpet along with a carpet smell in the apartments... it smelled like dirty musty towels in the units... I hate carpet bc it always stinks. Also, a big closet was a must for me and the apartments we saw did not have large enough closets. Each apartment comes with washer/dryer, fridge, dishwasher, and (some) came with microwaves. The ladies in the front office are sweethearts and we're very welcoming. They were very informative about everything. The gate to this complex is unlocked and open during office hours.. they do electricity through Cleco and internet through Charter or AT&T. Located on a service road right by the causeway entrance.. 3 red lights away from the causeway, so a good location to commute to NOLA.

I have two kids so I appreciate that the property is gated and that the gates actually close unlike some other properties nearby. I also like that the office staff is very attentive and I even got a random "Merry Christmas" phone call. My apartment itself was brand new when I moved in. It has very nice upgrades and the space is practical for my family of four. I also like that I don't have to pay for private school since the designated school is really good. This actually ruled out other places when I was doing my apartment search because it was very important for me to have my kids attend an A+ school and now they do. If I had to say anything negative the only thing I would say is that it is on the higher end of the price range but for the upgrades, the safety, and the great schools, and our peace of mind, it's worth it!!! I would recommend this place to anybody.

The bathrooms here are HUGE compared to every other apartment complex we toured in Mandeville. The tub feels like a mini pool and I love it! AC works well 10/10 and you are able to replace the air filter monthly at no extra cost. I've only had one maintenance request and they were on my case very quick. Acadia floor plan is the perfect size for 2. I share the closet and surprisingly still have a lot of extra room. Not excessive storage for food in the cabinets, but there's definitely enough room. The washer and dryer (NOT stackable) are the perfect size. Convenient location as well. Neighborhood Walmart is basically across the street and the causeway is around the corner. It is definitely worth the extra $ per month if you can afford it. I am loving Chenier and 100% recommend!

When we moved in, the carpets were so dirty that it turned your feet black when you stepped on them, they were also matted down. They repainted within the last 6 months and yet it's full of termite webs and wasp nests, they don't do any cleaning in the apartment buildings even though they charge you a common area fee (and the common gym is always bare bones). They also never call you back if you call the office and leave a message. I truly would never sign a lease with them again.

I called the office last week after my sister went to get a new filter for our air conditioning unit. She was told to "come back tomorrow for a new filter. The woman in the office told her the filters are changed every month. Oura had not been changed this year. She told my SIL that we were not at home when they changed them. THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE IN THE APT. The next day I spoke to Stephanie and she said we could pick it up at the office. My brother we to the office and Stephanoe was not there. He was told the exterminator was coming on the 29th and we should wait. He said he would not wait. He came in with with new filter. When I spoke to Stephanie. I told her we had flies in the apt.

It has a walk in shower in the master bedroom, rooms are a nice size. The front bedroom is a little larger but has a bathroom with a tub. The kitchen is beautiful. It has an open area so it doesn't feel closed in. I loved the set up. Lots of counter space and there is room for a few counter highth bar stools. The pantry is small so I also use the linen closet(in hall area) as a pantry. There is a hall closet and a nice size laundry room. You can put a rack or small table in there. There are two large walk in closets in both bedrooms. It has a nice size patio with a small storage closet. The complex is very nice. There is a workout room, a room where you can sit and relax and enjoy a cup of coffee. There is a lobby that you can also sit and enjoy the fireplace during cold weather. There is a nice size pool. There is a barbecue area off of the pool. The residents are very nice. There are many senior and younger people living here. They have about 10 buildings with some having garages on the first floor. There are also garages throughout the property that you can rent. There are two sizes, large and regular with enough space for one vehicle and storage. It is located close to Hwy 21 and north of I-12. The office staff is wonderful and they have a great maintenance crew that takes care of all your needs. There are lots of restaurants, a Winn Dixie, Walgreens, CVS, gas stations, an Ochsner complex, and other businesses on Hwy 21. It is worth checking it out if you are looking for an apartment.

Renters Beware! You will be charged an outrageous amount for water. They base your water bill on…read morethe total bill for the entire complex. My water bill for a 2 bedroom apartment ranged from $200-$140 per month. We didn't even live in the apartment for the last month of our lease but still had to pay a ridiculous amount for water along with a whole bunch of bogus "move out fees", despite leaving the apartment completely clean. Also, they've never cleaned the ductwork in the apartments so there was black on the ceiling where all the registers are. When the motor on the furnace had to be replaced, the HVAC technician confirmed that the ducts were filthy and had never been cleaned. So my family and I were breathing in mold and filth for an entire year! There are much better places than this to live. The Manager will try to fool you by telling you that she has the best rental prices around but by the time you add in all the additional fees, along with the communal water bill, you could get a much nicer house or apartment for your money. If you do decide to rent here, make sure they show you your actual apartment because the model that they take everyone through is way nicer than any of the units for rent.
