    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

    So we came from Portland Oregon out of town to work in Detroit, our Uncle was letting us use this…read moreapartment because he didn't use it full time, and it kept us from having to pay for hotel weekly's etc. Come to find out this place used to be an old folk Home with people who've lived there for over 30+ years so anything and everything that you did there was almost considered disruptive couldn't walk through the hallways talking, Complaining that there's people in and out when it was just my brother and I. Got a note put on our door saying that we were loud but we were never ever loud the only thing we ever did loud was probably laugh and the neighbors claimed that they were scared so we switched up and did everything right only to find out that the manager had come through the hall, claim to Have smelled weed coming from our Room accusing us of smoking in there when number one we've never smoked in there ever, our uncle comes home randomly from work on lunch etc. number two there's a smoking spot outside that we go to all the time...so the manager claims to then say I don't mind if you smoke just do it outside, and then all of the sudden has us removed off the property. I do not recommend this place and believe it or not it's 99% old white people and we were the only two black guys there and this is what we had to deal with, manager is definitely racist, never asked us, asked to look around, just accused us and kicked us out, please, do not go here, I'd report this place if I could.

    Dont rent from this place. Wait for repairs to be taken care of is ridiculous. 0 stars!read more

    I note my review (from Google) from 2021 has disappeared. I also note there are still many unhappy…read morepeople posting. Here is a summary of my original review, as I see Aspen Management still runs the place. We dealt with Aspen Management the last three years we lived here. Aspen Management's Apartment Manager at the time was a passive-aggressive bully. The company and the Manager's communication was often insulting, defensive, bellicose, inarticulate, and generally sucked; some people (as many as six or so in a row) could get away with parking practically sideways taking up multiple lots, and in handicapped zones, making parking needlessly competitive and access to one's own car uncertain; the cheaper lawn care service the the Apartment Manager bragged about would allow the weeds to run riot and to often grow hip-high; that general maintenance would feel like a losing gamble--I recall that in Aspen's first year, they couldn't even keep help for very long. This was an alarming sign in itself. Later on we'd be flat-out laughed at by a disbelieving maintenance rep about a real problem, but by that time, we had been essentially thrown out after having lived at the property nearly twenty years! We were not evicted--we paid our rent before it was due and never had any issue in which the local police was called against us. But the Apartment Manager yelled at me and blocked my way into the apartment in January of 2021, as I was bringing home groceries. It was toward the end of the COVID pandemic; I was still keeping my distance from people in general. She was enraged that I would do such a thing. I called the police. I imagine there are still records. In fact, years later, well after we moved out, the Northwood Police called me to inquire about something that happened in the neighborhood. I could only say I hadn't been on the property for two years. No charges were filed after my call, but the manager finally ceased much of her nonsense--until she simply "disinvited" us from renewing our lease! We had wanted to move out in 2020, but you know, COVID. Since so much was unknown about the disease in early 2020, we decided to deal with the devil we knew. Leaving was blessing, even if it was forced and rushed. My personal relationship with the Apartment Manager wasn't good from the start. The conversation started more or less friendly and what you might call "normal," but the manager went into a rant where she started complaining for minutes about tenants complaining about the increased dog mess in the yard. I thought I was polite, but I responded that the change of rental companies was sudden--it came in the form of an impersonal form letter a Friday or two before--and that perhaps she should have expected some reaction. That Apartment Manager never liked me again. The place would begin to rot. Speaking of dog mess, someone posted a handwritten sign a couple of Sundays to clean up after their dog! The mess truly piled up over time. I still wonder, was it really simply laziness and disinterest that caused the rot at Northwood Village, or a belief by someone at Aspen Management that people, by virtue of living at this location, somehow DESERVED to live in ever-growing dog mess? It's something that any potential tenant should think about!

    Village of northwood review…read more I stayed at the apartments for about a year and a half, and would say that it was an overall good experience. Pros: Moved into an apartment with new hardwood floors (at least according to Aliescha, the apartment manager), which was nice. The neighbors were mostly quiet and friendly, and the neighborhood was extremely quiet. There was a decent amount of equipment in the gym and no one was hardly ever in there. The dryers in the laundry room always worked. Other residents were generally good about not keeping their clothes in the washers/dryers for too long. There was someone who would regularly vacuum the apartment common hallway carpet and they did a good job keeping the grass cut. Scott, the maintenance man, always knocked before entering-- even if he was there for a specific appointment time. He was nice and we would chat a little every time he came over and I was there. There was a nice little park within walking distance of the apartment. Also, they built a new Dollar General right next to the apartments Cons: Upon move in, I discovered some hair and bobby pins stuck in the bathtub drain and what appeared to be cat vomit on both of the shelves in the master bedroom closet. So the apartment definitely wasn't clean and move-in ready. I was given the maintenance man's phone number for after service hours, which is nice but he never responded to my texts/calls once. The only way he would fulfill maintenance requests was if I either contacted Aliescha first or went through the apartment app. There were always 1-3 washers that would be broken, and since there were only 6 washers in total and 2 of them only accepted quarters (couldn't use the laundry app with them), sometimes it was hard to find an available washer right away. The gym was always super dirty and I got sick almost every time I'd workout there-- even after wiping the machines beforehand. The pool was a breeding ground for mosquitos. Of all of the previous apartments I've ever been to, this is the only one that didn't change out the faucet handles/faucet because of something wrong with it. Aliescha's reasoning was: everyone wants a new sink so I can't just give them out. And then there's Aliescha. There's a ton of negatives about her but I'm going to summarize them. She was always late to any of our appointments. She talks sweet to your face but is consistent in texting you in a way that's condescending-- like she's talking to a kid. And there were a few instances on the phone where she also was really condescending. I also got the sense that Aliescha was mocking me over text as well. Beware of her-- she's two faced. You've been warned. Prior to moving in, I let her know in person that my then girlfriend was probably going to move in with me at some point, and then she told me to my face to not worry about telling her and just have her move in because Aliescha didn't want to deal with the paperwork. Yet when it was close to the time my then girlfriend was going to move in, I texted Aliescha to ensure that it was ok that my girlfriend just move in without signing anything, then Aliescha told me to have her come in and fill out the paperwork. There were several other times when she'll promise you something in person but will go back on what she said over text and never give you anything in writing other than to deny what she'd said in person. Then when it came time to move out, I still had 2-3 weeks left, and when I went to get the mail one day, I discovered a vacancy card in my mailbox. So I took it out only to discover it again in a few days. It was likely Aliescha. Most unprofessional property manager I've ever had the experience in dealing with, and I've lived in 7 apartments.
