    3 years living here and it has been a wonderful experience. I went from building 4900 (1 bedroom)…read moreto building 4800 (2 bedroom). Even when dedicated staff moved on to other opportunities, new staff had the same professionalism. Hated to leave but I bought a house. The maintenance staff is TOP NOTCH too! Grounds are super clean, gates always work and they communicate often about everything! Qiyam

    I visited this place and did a tour. The outside is well kept however, when I did my tour of the…read moreinside of the apartment, I noticed how outdated the place was. They also had carpet throughout, which I was not a fan of. The layout of the apartment is ok. After my tour, i ran into a gentleman who had moved in during the summer and is now looking move elsewhere. He was furious about the constant mold problem apparently they have here. He mentioned to me how there is mold literally everywhere. Mold in the cracks of the window. The toilets breed black mold, the shower walls have mold growing under it, the faucet spouts also has mold coming through it. He even mentioned how the ice maker ice started tasting funny and stale. The automatic ice maker apparently is not maintained properly, neither is the dishwasher. I told the guy that it sounds like they care more about the appearance outside than they do inside. After touring the place and running across the gentleman that lives there, I am going to look at some newer builds. I would rather pay extra rent, knowing that the new build I am living in is in great shape inside. Before writing this, I looked at some reviews from this place and apparently there were some of the same complaints about mold and how the people concerns about it was not taken seriously. If you want new and not have to worry about these issues , look elsewhere.

    I cannot recommend this apartment complex, especially to families with young children…read more Before applying, my fiancé and I specifically asked about the safety of the property because we had seen mixed reviews online. We explained that I am six months pregnant and we have a two year old, so safety was our number one concern. An employee, Dre, reassured us that the property was safe, and based on those assurances, we applied, were approved, and paid the reservation fee. Only after paying the fee did I discover, through multiple local news reports, that two men had recently been arrested in connection with the alleged rape of underage girls on the property. The case was reported as being under investigation. This is information that absolutely would have affected our decision to apply, and we never would have moved forward had we known. When I called the leasing office to ask about canceling our reservation and receiving a refund, Macy (or Marcie something like that) told me it was my fault for trusting what their employee had told us. She stated that they were not required to disclose criminal activity on the property and that I should have done my own research before applying. Whether or not they had a legal obligation to disclose it, I specifically asked about safety before giving them any money. As a pregnant mother with a young child, I expected an honest and transparent answer--not reassurance that left out information any reasonable family would want to know. The way this situation was handled showed a complete lack of accountability and customer care. Losing the reservation fee is frustrating, but what is far more disappointing is being misled after asking a direct question about something that mattered most to my family. I hope this review encourages other families to do extensive research before applying, because you may not get the full picture from the leasing office.

    The management will tell you abject lies to persuade you to move in. We were told the private…read moreparking signs were coming down and that we could park wherever - this resulted in our cars being vandalized. When we confronted management they seemed sympathetic at first and then sent an email out COMPLETELY CONTRADICTING WHAT THEY HAD TOLD US IN PERSON. There is now property damage to my vehicle and they're not doing a thing about it. These people are CROOKS! Patio is roach infested and covered in wasp nests even though we were told they have pest control. Gate is always broken. Everyone in management here is a shithead liar. DO NOT MOVE HERE UNLESS YOU WANT AN ENDLESS ARRAY OF PROBLEMS! We are currently pursuing legal action to hold them accountable, but it will likely be some time before our case is presented and any judgement is made. If you do have to live here for whatever reason - make sure you get their promises IN WRITING! They cannot be trusted and their policy is to lie to your face until you go away. Absolute nightmare! Moving here has been the single biggest regret of my adult life. STAY AWAY!

    The Harrison of Braselton Management deserves 0 stars. My…read morefiancé has lived in these apartments since last august and about two months ago started seeing roaches everywhere. We immediately contacted management who told us to call pest control, so we did. well, the roaches haven't gone away. the exterminator has come 3 times and that's "all management can do". According to the health department any amount of roaches is unhealthy to be around- because they carry a multitude of diseases. My fiancé has now had to live in a friends house the LAST TWO MONTHS because his apartment is so bad. We've thrown away food, clothes, towels etc. because the roaches won't go away. On top of that we've sent emails, pictures, and called multiple times- BUT THEY DO NOT CARE! All they want is your money, they DO NOT hold up their side of the lease... which is to make sure residents are in a SAFE area!!!! My fiancé has wasted 2 months of rent ($3500) and hasn't even been able to live in his own apartment because these people won't be humane and DO SOMETHING. Obviously spraying isn't working since they've sprayed 3 times and there hasn't been ANY improvement . The apartments have a serious problem. The least you could do is give him a new apartment or his money back! Or just be humane and get him out of a disease infested place! See pics & emails below :

    We've lived at The Harrison for a month and here's our review. We will update it periodically…read more **Promotional Offers** Don't expect to get their "up to $$ off" promotion--it's a bait and switch. We signed our lease with a $500 off promotion. Now, there's an "up to one month off" offer. Initially, we planned to move to The Finch due to The Harrison's waitlist. After paying application fees to The Finch, a 2BR unit became available at The Harrison on June 26th, the day our FL lease ended. We paid additional fees to secure this larger unit with a better layout. They promised $500 off the first month's rent if moved in by a certain date. When I called, they said we'd get the current promo. Now they deny this. We helped them by securing the unit two months early, but they refuse to honor current or future offers. Emailing the parent company, FOGELMAN, got us a forwarded reply, essentially scolding us for asking again. Is this review worth the $500 they "saved"? **Deposit Issues** We had to pay a large deposit because their credit report showed a low score. Despite proving our higher scores from all three major bureaus, they wouldn't adjust. This seems like a scam to get higher deposits. Many people might be forced to overpay here. **Unit Condition** The layout is nice, but there's no adequate pantry or double sinks in the bathroom. The primary room's standing shower creaks with every step. The unit wasn't move-in ready, with multiple paint and scratch issues noted but not addressed. There were carpet stains and a chipped granite countertop. The refrigerator was missing a shelf, and the patio had six giant wasp nests. These were present when we moved in, raising concerns about our deposit. **Noise Levels** The noise level is okay, except for the upstairs unit, which sounds like an elephant walking due to cheap building I assume. We can also hear all the plumbing from above. There are no fans or light fixtures in the bedrooms, only a living room fan without a light. **Neighborhood and Maintenance** The neighborhood is mostly stones with little grass, feeling like a terrarium. The grassy areas are patchy mud holes, causing mud to be tracked in. The community provides dog waste bags and trash cans, but many people don't use them, leaving piles of waste next to the cans. The office said they'd send a notice, but instead sent maintenance to clean it up, which isn't their job. The next day, more piles appeared. **Social Interaction** The neighbors are nice and greet us, unlike in SWFL. Our dogs are still adjusting, making it hard for us to socialize. Our young Boxer is scared of everything, making bathroom trips difficult. Our older Boxer is overprotective, so forgive us for rushing in and out without stopping to talk. **Safety Concerns** On the 4th of July, some families illegally set off large fireworks outside our unit, scaring our dogs. They started a fire in the dumpster with hot fireworks. This might happen again on NYE. **Amenities** The gym is okay but lacks a dedicated back machine. The pool is nice and warm. The coffee machine often lacks stocked dairy, so "cappuccinos" come out as just coffee and milky water. Paying $25 for trash service is annoying, especially since we walk our trash down ourselves. The black trash cans are ugly and some people leave them outside 24/7, which is unappealing. The halls stink when people use the service. The trash has overflowed a few times, and some people leave items on the sidewalk as if someone will take them. Just toss it. **Conclusion** This is our honest review for potential renters. The staff, office, and maintenance are generally nice and professional. However, the community's money grabs, like not honoring promos and using false credit scores for higher deposits, are concerning. Other reviews indicate similar experiences. We hope it's not a scam to keep our deposit, as we'd fight it in court. Our future stay is uncertain, but we hope the rest of our time here goes well.

    I don't get the negative comments. Here's my experience... I've been at Lake Lanier Club for 9…read moremonths. The good: it's a gorgeous facility. Trimmed lawn and bushes, magnolia trees and an absolutely stunning view of Lake Lanier. Two pools (both beautiful and well kept) and areas to grill out or enjoy the dock if you have a boat. Two trash compactors on site, so you don't have to travel outside to dispense of household garbage The bad: not much really. Had a problem with the sink; they fixed it next day. It's pricey. That's about it. Lots of dogs, so there's some dog poop off the sidewalk sometimes. The walls are pretty thick, never heard a neighbor cough or sneeze. They are pretty stringent on the rules- only residents in the pools, immediately take trash bags away don't leave them for any length of time outside of your door, etc. To sum up: it's a beautiful place with some nice folks, and they have some rules to follow. It's not the Motel 6 or Holiday Inn. It looks nice, they work to keep it that way. I'm content with it.

    This place is a complete scam I highly do not recommend they will try and milk you of all the money…read moreyou have it's in a beautiful location but they need better management they do not care for you what's so ever if I can give it 0 starts i genuinely would do so they can easily access your home by putting in a "maintenance request" they do not properly fix what's needed to get fixed people drive beyond recklessly in this community they don't care for you or your family they only care about taking money from you there's dog poop everywhere so watch where you step they will find any way to get money out of you and kick you out so don't sign the lease it's not worth it there are cheeper places to live then here
