Fire alarms go off regularly including in the middle of the night. Can't keep a maintenance person so repairs can take a long time. There's a sex offender in at least one of the buildings.

I give these apartments zero stars…read more When I moved in there was a very nice and professional property manager that ran this property. Her name was Sue. Sue showed me the kitchen and the bathroom in the apartment, and the cabinets and counter tops and appliances were in terrible condition. She informed me that I could update the cabinets with paint. Two weeks later, a new property manager took over and he is nothing but a slum lord. He demands that you take pictures of any issues in you apartment, and expects you to order parts that need to be order for a replacement. He is rude, obnoxious, and has no customer service skills. He yells and hangs up on you, because you voice your opinion. He also allowed maintenance to enter my apartment without notice and let my dog out of her crate. She a rescue dog and is scared of men in general. And lastly, he spends time in his office with the light out. What is that saying about him being available for his tenants? He doesn't like you to complain about issues in the complex, so if you have a concern, don't bother. I can't wait to leave this place, and move into my brand new condo that I am purchasing. So long, East Gate, It has not been a good experience!

This ghetto of a neighborhood has poor management and no assigned parking. As a resident of three…read moreyears there and having to play musical parking spaces every night, I will be seeking other living accommodations. This community is littered with trash. The dumpsters are constantly piled with refuse. The local police are on-site almost every week. They are slow to repair broken plumbing and other utilities. They are "renovating" apartments as people move out, but they want to charge those leaving for every little fault despite the unit being gutted and remodeled. The remodeling is of no good in buildings that were built in the 1950s. My unit has a crack in the wall from the ceiling to the floor. It can't be repaired, as the fault is in the foundation. They won't implement electronic payment of rent. It has to be paid by money order or check. The windows in the apartments are single pane aluminum and may as well be open doors in the winter as cold air blasts through them. Beware of mold and mildew if you get water anywhere in your unit. There are other and better places to live. If you have to give up your Starbucks and spend a bit more on rent, it's well worth the expense. DO NOT LIVE HERE UNLESS YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER CHOICE!

My family lived here until 2016, and it served it's purpose as a roof over our heads…read more Pros: -Rent was VERY cheap compared to other units in Prince William County/Northern Virginia. Our rent was about $700, but renovated units had rent at about $800 -No pests (roaches, ants, mice) -Very, very few incidents of violence or unsavory activity (murders, assaults, gangs) occurring within this complex -No credit check or background check -Water, sewage, and trash utilities are included in the rent -Connie's convenience store is less than 50 feet from the complex. -3 bus stops located within a 2-5 minute walk from complex. -McDonald's/Rite Aid/Todos Grocery Store/Bank of America are about a 10-12 minute walk from the complex Cons: -Run-down building appearance -Loud music is sometimes blasted during daytime hours or weekends, which can be a nuisance to those in the community. -No background check (Many suspicious looking characters lived on-site, including ones with less than favorable histories) -Men or groups of people sometimes like to congregate outside in front of walkways or stairs, which can be intimidating/frustrating to single people or families trying to get to their apartment -No laundry facility on-site -No central A/C or heat. -In lieu of central A/C or heat, a bulky wall unit is supplied, which notoriously makes for expensive electric bills -1 or 2 residents' guests often would take up much needed parking from other residents -Limited parking We did not have any pest problems, that I can recall other than an occasional spider. Due to our close proximity to Williamstown and Ginn Memorial Park (adjacent to our complex), there was a moderate police presence that made the neighborhood feel a bit unsafe and uncomfortable. Each unit has one bedroom and one bathroom, and a small kitchen with a refrigerator and electric stove (no dishwasher in our unit). Our unit did not have central A/C or heat, which created very high electric bills during summer and winter. Instead, our unit featured a bulky wall unit next to the front door that produced both air conditioning and heat. The bedroom featured a furnace that heated up quite nicely in the winter. Unlike many apartments, the bathroom was located in the bedroom, which meant that if you were to have guests over, they would need to walk through your bedroom to get to the bathroom, which can be uncomfortable for all parties. Each bathroom has a window, which is convenient, and the room also features a sink, toilet, and bathtub/shower. The entire bathroom is about 8 feet deep and 5 feet wide. Takeaway: If an individual or a family is in dire need of an apartment, and the head of household does not have high income or a strong credit score, this complex may be worth checking out. Although there are some shady characters that reside here, everybody tends to stay within their circles. The likelihood of anyone harassing you is highly unlikely. However, if you would like an apartment complex with a bit more amenities, I would look into Quantico Court and a bit less activity. Apartments there are $792 a month.

SHOREHAVEN APARTMENTS: ILLEGALLY LEASING SINCE 2014…read more 10+ YEARS of Failed Inspections & Tenant Fraud Shorehaven Apartments has been illegally leasing apartments since 2014 with failed safety inspections EVERY SINGLE YEAR. They knew about these violations but still scammed tenants into unsafe, unapproved housing.

I had to sue just to get an acknowledgment for hotel reimbursements. I've lost my job, car, and apartment due to their negligence. Unit 203 across the hall just moved out yesterday--more tenants are fleeing. Shorehaven's fraud is being fully exposed, and the legal battle is already in motion. DOCUMENTED PUBLIC PROOF Court-stamped lawsuit filings submitted on 2/6/25 (proof of active litigation). Health violations causing documented medical harm (bed bug bites, ER visit, loss of work).

Review Update for Shorehaven Apartments - November 13, 2024…read more An update on the unbearable bed bug infestation here at Shorehaven Apartments: as I write this at 12:46 a.m., I'm in the bathtub, trying to escape relentless itching and sleepless nights. Last week, I had to book a 4-night hotel stay due to this unresolved issue. Since reporting the infestation on October 12, management's response has been slow and inadequate, leaving me with worsening health concerns. Despite my pleas, the next treatment isn't scheduled until November 20. I've contacted local code enforcement and neighborhood services, as both the main leaseholder and community manager have pressured me to remove my review, which has left me mentally and physically drained. I have evidence of this ongoing neglect.

Worst apartment complex ever. I wrote a review before and I was talking about how things were great…read moreonly because the staff before the current one that was there was super nice and understanding and I was in a different apartment. 1. There was mold in my vents where air was being blown out of. Tech asked me if these were new. 1. Why should know 2. Why don't you know 3. Why am I in the middle of my lease finding this out 2. I had several leaks in my apartment. Three In my closet, and two in my bathroom. MAKE SURE TICKETS ARE LOGGED IN. Because they didn't record it all when I logged in to my account to see the tickets half of them weren't recorded. 3. I've reported many times about a dog that attacked my dog for not being on a leash and constantly stepping on dog poop. 4. The pool wasn't open for a year at one point 5. The amenities aren't even amenities. 6. The price is crazy for the location and how old the place is. Do yourself a favor and don't move in if you want mold and leaks in your apartment. So glad I moved out.

Kind and very helpful. Cons: The property has a roach problem. The other residents smoke in their apartments ( cigarettes and marijuana). There are/were multiple shootings on the property. There were several times I went without AC in the summer and heat in the winter ( I was not provided with a heater or AC unit while the problem was fixed). Mold under the kitchen sink, in the bathroom around pipes and on the walls near the AC vents. I have witnessed multiple drug sales in broad day light.

We will be a few minutes late since we are coming from 1 hour away and they said no problem. When we get there they had the doors locked. They wouldn't let us in. We were only 10 minutes late. I would not rent from them, even if I was homeless. These people deserve to be fired and are doing terrible misrepresentation to the company. I hope management can deal with Linda and her annoying little sidekick.

The scattered semi-abandoned automobiles all around the development suggest a vagrant volatile lifestyle at the whim of the more fragile economic situations of residents. Nonetheless, it at surface seems like a friendly happy family-filled development so make no judgements about the people. Tis all.
