She was very clear, honest and super sweet...the best part was having our appointment being given to her. The apartments were spacious and not outdated but not overly modern, just homey. The pool looking out into the water is pretty. And the gym is brand new and doesn't smell like a sweaty sock. It also looks has glass windows that you can see the pretty pool and lake without anyone being able to see you. We ended up choosing something a else. But I definitely regret it... lease with them Harborside Patty and their team are lovely, they take care of you and they love putting things together for childern!

I recently moved into a unit that was not prepared for occupancy. I received the keys on January 4,…read more2025. Unfortunately, I did not get a proper walkthrough of the unit with an agent. The maintenance man directed me to the unit and said he had no knowledge this unit was supposed to be on the list for move in, he also stated he serviced 8 units that would be available. Upon moving in, I noticed several issues. There is a crack in the ceiling due to a water leak from the unit above. Both the washer and dryer are broken, and there's mold in the dishwasher. The blinds in the living room are damaged and have not been replaced, and there is visible mold on the bathroom ceiling. Additionally, there was trash and debris under the kitchen cabinets and between the dishwasher. Before I moved my belongings in, I informed Marie about these problems, and she assured me they would be addressed by Saturday, January 5, 2025. However, it is now Tuesday, and nothing has been done. On Monday, I requested to switch units, and despite the property manager's assurance that I would be placed in building 11, I was told that nothing was available by another agent. I'm trying hard not to believe there is some form of racism going on because why would I be placed in such a unit then expected to stay with two small kids who are now exposed to mold. Also not to mention, my WiFi box was order prior to me moving in. When I arrived to the unit the WiFi box was open which means someone intended to steal the package if it was of there liking.

Like any apartment complex with money to be made they'll bill you on any and everything. Be sure to document as things happen. Our apartment had a ventilation issue that created black staining under every door with carpet, we didn't record or note it therefore we were responsible for miraculously staining every carpet in the exact same way.... The complex requires a carpet cleaning before you move out. Be sure to do the cleaning and observe for yourself. Ours was done after moving out so what do you know, all of our carpet couldn't be cleaned and needed replacing even though it was only a year old and no shoes were worn, food eaten, etc. on the carpet. They even took photos claiming spots under beds and book shelves that was never trafficked was damaged.... Moral of the story take control if you plan on living here because they'll take full advantage of you when leave. Seriously, I'd just live in one of the other gated complexes, friends of mine that did never encountered the problems that retreat had to offer. Edit: If you are military be extra cautious. If you meet this criteria you are in a situation where the apartment can charge you around $1K, as we were including security deposit, and you will be unable to contest, even with proof or basic understanding of "carpet damage". You will be unable to challenge due to basic military demands keeping you in your new location and coupled with COVID-19 restraints on military the staff will have you backed into a corner legally where your only option is to pay.

And now it is me, my boyfriend of now 15 years, & our beautiful, amazing 5 year old daughter!! We LOVE living here! It's calm & quiet even considering we are a few feet away from the interstate & less than a 1/2 mike away from the train tracks... The residents are so nice and respectful of their neighbors. It's ESPECIALLY amazing living here the last few years since Mrs. Karen (our landlord/property manager) took over. Before her there was constant issues regarding the previous (several) landlords/property managers such as them being rude & not caring about us residents to hearingbrumors of one of them stealing money somehow... But none of those issues exsist now that Mrs. Karen is watching over us. She is the sweetest, most kind hearted person you will EVER meet!! When I say she treats us like family.. I mean that 100%. She goes ABOVE & BEYOND for ALL the residents (regardless if you just moved in or if you're like us who have been here 13 years... everyone gets the same respect & live shown to them by her). I HIGHLY recommend looking into Audubon Gates Apartments if you're looking for somewhere that's safe, kid friendly, & all around just a great place to live & a great little community to be apart of!!!

TERMITES, FUNGUS, HORRIBLE STAFF. This place is an absolute nightmare. We've lived here for 7…read moremonths and have had nothing but problems. The first month we moved in we had a fungal bloom come through the drywall in our bathroom. All they did was send maintenance to cut what they could see and put spackle over the hole. There's is no telling how extensive the damage is behind our wall. In February our entire unit flooded from their washing machine malfunctioning. We called the emergency line that night and no one answered. We finally called the next morning and got through to someone. They sent out a company to use machines to remove the water from the carpet. Even though the water had reached the walls NO INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED TO ENSURE MOLD HAD NOT DEVELOPED. We alerted the management two weeks ago that we had a termite infestation in our walls when we noticed we had new pin-sized holes in our walls. The management complete wrote us off and said it was simply swarmers that got inside even though we sent them pictures of them actively crawling through the holes in the wall. They finally managed to send a pest control worker out who only treated the outer wall and told us he didn't know what he was doing, had only worked for the company for a month, and could not treat the inside which was our biggest problem. After many complaints they finally sent another pest agent out to treat the inside. All during this we continued to tell them they were still coming into our unit by our window. They finally opened the wall up to find extensive damage to the studs in our wall from the termites. We currently have an open wall in our wall with exposed rotted wood with no baseboard. At the moment 1st lake has done nothing for us even though we can not occupy our unit due to our personal safety concerns. We refuse to share our bedroom with bugs especially when they are STILL COMING IN and have an open hole in our wall now. They have not offered us another place to live and have been extremely difficult to communicate with. We have told them we simply want to move out of our unit but they do not care about their residents. At the moment they are insisting we remain in the unit while they undergo extensive structural repairs to a load bearing wall--all of which I'm sure they are doing without permit. We already spoke with a license contractor and a local building inspector that both said we should not be occupying the unit while such an extensive repair is being completed. We are pretty sure from the damage we've seen in our walls that it has spread to other units as well. This community is horrible, termite infested, uncommunicative, and fails to care about the health and safety of it's residents. DO NOT LIVE HERE!!

Been living here since 2006, and haven't regreted it. On the pricier side of apartments (I'm in a…read more800 sq ft 1BR/1BT), but definately a high-quality place. Office management has been the same since I moved in, and Franny the site-manager is delightful to work with, lives on site, and is always trying to involve the residents in the occasional seasonal pool-cookout. Ammenities seem fairly standard. Adequate free-for-all parking, a nicely maintained pool/patio, a rarely-used tennis court (though this too is kept in decent condition), coin laundry on-site with hook-ups available in units, a couple of computers in a small business center, decent lighting at night, a moderate work-out center, car wash pavillion (hose & drains, no vacuum), gated entry via an RFID scanner for your car or a separate push-code entry gate for guests. Mostly what's kept me at this place is the sheer high-level of maintenance that's gone into it. I've had ceiling leak repaired in a day and several months now without any issue from it, my chimney cleared within a day of asking, and I've never seen the hallway/parking lighting be out for more than a couple of days. The landscaping is superb by apartment complex standards in the area, and makes me feel pleasant walking to get mail/drop off trash. It's a bit far north in Slidell, with roughly a 45m-1hr drive into downtown NOLA, but aside from that, the mall and Walmart and a variety of other commercial services are literally down the street (though separated from this residential area by an overpass over the interstate, which keeps traffic around the apartment and surrounding subdivisions to a pleasant minimum; it would be possible to walk ~3 miles to the mall, but not recommended). If it's in your budget, definately worth checking out.
