FANTASTIC place to live. I moved here and only planned on staying about a year or so, and just…read moremoved out after getting married and ended my almost-eight year stay at the Arts. Danielle and Kiana and their entire staff are awesome. Property is always clean, pool is great, and it's close enough to everything in Metairie (food, shopping, entertainment) but still quiet and out of the way of the hustle and bustle. Also only about a 10 minute drive to downtown New Orleans. My apt. was a one bedroom but VERY spacious, and included both a utility closet with a washer and dryer as well as a really large walk-in closet. The bedroom was the perfect size for a queen size bedroom set (a king would also fit!), and the bathroom was also more than big enough and also had a closet. I have no words to express how amazing the place is. If you are looking for an apartment in which to stay either temporarily or permanently, DO NOT make the mistake of just going with the "big name" apartment companies without stopping here.

I've lived here almost 10yrs and to be honest, overall, I was completely shocked at how this is…read moretruly a hidden gem in the middle of everything! Of course there's always pros and cons to living in the city, i.e. lack of parking, interstate noise, and things of that nature. However, for the most part, the property's staff does an amazing job keeping the grounds looking amazing, quickly replying to maintenance requests, and making you feel genuinely cared about. I also enjoy the fact that most neighbors are respectful of each other in regards to noise and doing their part to ensure the property stays looking good. Sincerely, K M H

First day moving in, what looked like sewage water started leaking from ceiling and cabinets but they said it's impossible because there's no pipes above that area. Lies. Leasing office are the rudest most stuck up bitches I've ever met and I'm surprised they even have a job. Horrible time. Everything here you touch breaks. Parking is good awful. Our vehicle was broken into, and when the cops came the office refused to help by simply admitting if they have cameras in the parking lot or not. They will take your deposit even if you left in good condition and standing. There's a reason why there's always deals going on and constant moving trucks in and out. Disgusting dirty staff and apartments. The staff honestly made it so much worse. Scum of the earth type of women, and I hope you get that nasty ass karma for what you've done to other people. It's well deserved

If you're looking for a company that truly values and supports its employees, this is not the place…read morefor you. I began working here as an Assistant Manager, coming in with a strong background in real estate and a proven track record of success. Unfortunately, from my very first day, the experience was disappointing. I was essentially thrown into the role without proper training, and it quickly became clear that some team members were not interested in setting me up for success. My manager, Dwanda Jones, chose to gossip about other employees -- including her own RVP, Brittney -- instead of focusing on training or team development. This created a toxic and unprofessional environment from the start. Despite that, I remained passionate about my work and took initiative, often being the only one on-site ensuring operations ran smoothly. When I brought issues and updates to my manager's attention, she did nothing to address them. Later, when her RVP visited and called her out for poor performance, she shifted the blame onto me, even though I had consistently tried to communicate and ask for guidance. I requested additional help learning their new system multiple times, but instead of support, I was told not to seek assistance elsewhere -- and the promised help never came. Overall, this has been the most unprofessional and disappointing company I have ever worked for.

Horrible ROACH PROBLEM! I lived there for 18months, and so did 3 of my coworkers in different units…read moreand we all had roach infestations. In the vents in the bathroom, pantry, closets, bedrooms, kitchen... all over. They did monthly sprays and did "construction" to fight the infestation, which did lessen the problem but not eradicate it. Also I believe that the vents in my bedroom had mold in them. While I lived there I had constant raspiness, dripping nasal and etc... as soon as I moved those symptoms immediately cleared up. Beware.

My ire arises from a complaint that I have with the staff at a Pelican Bay Garden Apartments…read moreentering my residence yesterday (21Aug2017). Supposedly, the entry was needed under the guise of an emergency (busted hot water heater). The alarming part of is that I was home all day Sunday and there was no indication of any malfunction. I arrived home last night to a note saying, my hot water heater had been replaced. There was no further explanation nor was an attempt made to contact me prior to enter my apartment. Once investigating further, I noticed my master bathroom was in shambles. There were dirt, dust, and debris everywhere. I had purchased a new shower curtain on Sunday and had it hanging immediately. It is now covered in the same dirt and debris described above. I immediately thought to take pictures, instead, I chose to close the door and use the spare bathroom. My thought process was to go to the office in the am (22Aug2017) and have the property manager visit and see the mess first hand. According to the posted hours, the office opens at 8:30 am. I was there five minutes early and waited ten minutes after. The office never opened. I finally reached Susan, twenty minutes after the said opening time. Once, speaking with her, the level of service eroded even further. She was very defensive and out right rude. I informed her of the situation and alerted her to my concerns. She advised me she would walk the apartment and get back with me. After about two hours, she called and informed me she would have "Daniel", sweep and vacuum where possible and there was nothing wrong with my shower curtain. Upon hearing this information, I became even more annoyed at the level of service being offered. I advised that I wanted no from the staff there to enter my apartment without my knowledge or presence. I also ask for the name of someone at the Corp. level, I could speak with. I was given Angel's name and number. I have attempted six calls to your office to speak with Angel. I was either told she was in a meeting or was going to call me back. Heather answered the phone all but the last time. My last call to your office was at 4:54 pm, at which point I spoke with Tiffany. I explained to her that I wanted to speak with Angel today, as this was that much of a concern to me. As I type this email, I have yet to hear from Angel or anyone from 1st Lake Properties. This has been a thoroughly exhausting experience, to which I want a resolution.

‼ DO NOT MOVE HERE ‼ WORTH READING BEFORE LEASING‼…read more This has been the worst living experience! I've been a resident at Lost Bayou since April 2021, and have had issues with my apartment from the very beginning. They started small in comparison; not cleaned before move in, broken dishwasher, trouble opening front door. Then grew; lease renewed without notice, hot water stopped working, bathroom door stopped closing, etc. But this last issue was the LAST straw! I've been forced out of my apartment since November 20th, 2022, due to a leak in the bathroom. I called the number they have attached to Google, and was redirected at least 4 times before finally reaching their emergency operator. She told me she would contact maintenance and give me an update, which I never received. When I went back to check the apartment the following day (Nov 21st) nothing had been fixed. I went straight to Lost Bayou's leasing office and spoke with Ms. Jeannie ( who was there from Frenchman's Creek Apartments ) and informed her of what was going on. I also expressed my concerns about not feeling safe to stay in the apartment, but was told it was still inhabitable since the ceiling hadn't fallen yet. Despite the vent leaking over the toilet, soaking wet floor, stench, not knowing if/when the ceiling would fall, and water spots also appearing in the bedroom. I reiterated that I did not feel safe or comfortable staying in the apartment, and would continue staying with a family member until repairs were complete. Ms. Jeannie told me that she would have roofers assess & repair the roof, followed by sheetrock repair, and give me an update. I received a voicemail from Ms. Vicky on November 23rd, right before closing, claiming that the roof had been repaired and the sheetrock was scheduled to be repaired the following Monday (Nov. 28th). The office was closed by the time I received the voicemail and on Thanksgiving. I called back on Nov. 25th for an update and to see if the sheetrock could be rescheduled to an earlier date. No answer. I called again Nov. 26th, still no answer. That night, after work, I stopped to check the apartment myself. Not only had there not been any repairs, the ceiling had now caved in/fallen and the floor was still drenched in water! I contacted the emergency operator the following morning, and was told that maintenance would be sent. When I arrived back to my apartment on the 28th for an update, once again nothing had been repaired. I went to the office to speak to someone but no one was there. A nearby employee directed me to Frenchmen's Creek, where I spoke with Ms. Jeannie. I told her how the damage had worsened since we first spoke on the 21st, and there seemed to be no urgency or compassion towards my situation. At this point I had been out of my apartment for a week, with no estimate of when I'd be able to return, and rent was due in 3days. I was never offered prorated rent, or any other accommodation(s). When I requested to be moved to another apartment, she said she would reach out to her regional manager and give me an update (never received). When I called Lost Bayou the following morning (Nov. 29th 10:02am) for an update, Ms. Vicky answered. She was not aware of anything Ms. Jeannie and I discussed, but said she would reach out to her and let me know what the regional manager had decided. She also said that roofers would be sent out again and she'd call me with an update (never received). When I arrived to the office that evening (4:35pm) for an update, the roofers had just been sent & Ms. Vicky was just then sending someone inside the apartment to pick up the debris that had been left for days. Her excuse was their lack of personnel. When asked what Ms. Jeannie said about me being moved to another apartment, she said that she hadn't spoken with her. I expressed my concerns again about having to pay rent for an uninhabitable apartment; due to not being able to use the toilet, shower, or tub. I was told that it was my choice not to stay there, and I could take the option to not pay rent & face a judge. At this point, my only option was early lease termination. Which meant I'd be paying the end of November, December, and January's rent ($2,138+) for an apartment I couldn't even live in! Of course the "accommodations" came once I turned in my early termination notice (Nov. 30th) and began packing my apartment. The ceiling was FINALLY removed on December 2nd. On December 5th, I was called to tour another apartment; which was unfinished and drenched in cigarette stench & God knows what else. I haven't heard anything from management since then and the bathroom hasn't been touched since the 2nd; I'm glad I got out of this hell hole when I did. It's unfortunate that I had to pay for management's negligence and incompetence, currently seeking representation, but hopefully by reading this you will not go through the same!

Where do I even begin to start with this review there's just so much wrong in this place so it's…read moregonna be a long review! So to start this place wasn't so bad when Jessica was in the office she would get everything done quickly and professionally, whoever is in the office now is terrible and incompetent!!! We've called MULTIPLE times about roaches and gnats and they STILL haven't done anything!!! Also there were RATS here as well a few months back, this apartment is truly disgusting and outdated, they also went up on the rent at the beginning of covid for these shitty apartments, we had plans to move once our lease was up but unfortunately with the pandemic that didn't end up happening so now we're stuck here until the lease is up next year and it's miserable. ALSO our toilet wasn't flushing and we again called multiple times and the lady in the office literally told us it was a city problem so we suffered with this issue for over a month and called again to get any update on the city plumbing issue and she FINALLY sent a plumber out and he fixed the issue is less than 10 minutes so why did she never send a plumber to begin with???? this lady in the office lied to us and made us have toilet that barely flushed for over a month...there's also a rehab center on Wabash street and sketchy people are always hanging around and throwing trash and their plate lunches everywhere, maybe that's why there's so many's BUGS AND RATS!! Ugh please save your money and pick anywhere else but here if you're looking to move.
