I am a current resident at Lakehouse and a happy one. From perfect amenities to the friendly staff,…read moreI would recommend this place over other apartments in the area. The location is very strategic: in the middle of Columbia Town Center but away from the main road so you wouldn't hear noises. I get free coffee from the lobby every day, and it is the highlight of my day. The Concierge lady, Sherri, is very reliable and friendly. Oh, did I mention they have many significant events every month and complimentary yoga classes twice a month? Not forgetting they have a free EV car chargers for those with EV cars.

I'm going to say right now - Lakehouse is such a pleasure to live at (it's pretty new at just under…read morea year old). The rest of my review is below - My girlfriend and I looked at apartments in April of 2018 with the plan of moving in to wherever we selected near the beginning of June. We visited Lakehouse and several other apartments in the region. We made the "mistake" of visiting Lakehouse first which sort of soured us on everything after... HOWEVER - this wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The rent here is a bit on the higher side - but Lakehouse is classified as luxury for a reason. The staff are all INCREDIBLY friendly and fast to respond to special requests and maintenance tickets. We had a few things (very minor) that needed fixing or adjustment when we first moved in, and we never had to wait more than one business day for the maintenance folks to resolve issues. Further, the concierge/front desk is even willing to deliver packages to our apartment if you will not be home in time to fetch your packages on your own. We have a weekly HelloFresh delivery that they even unpack and load into our fridge for us! The building is pet friendly ($40 pet rent per pet). We had a few issues with a neighbors dog barking for hours on end but that has calmed down significantly. The staff was quick to get back to us and has always been willing to work on any issues that pop up. Your rent doesn't include utilities - but you only pay $6 per month for trash services (disposal rooms are easy to find and well lit). You pay utilities (both Comcast and Verizon are available for telecom). Electricity is through BGE and through our first month the prices have been affordable. We have laundry machines in our apartment and they are energy star rated - the washer is a bit compact and can't handle that much laundry - but that's the trade-off for saving space and water. Parking is INCLUDED in your rent and the parking garage has ABUNDANT parking (I'm not exaggerating). The garage feels very safe ( I regularly leave radio equipment (for my volunteer gig) in my car and it has not been broken into)). Security guards watch the garage overnight as well. You have control over your climate control as well which is very nice - the balconies are spacious and enough to fit chairs/small table on them. I will definitely reiterate that the major draw here is the staff - they are so friendly and willing to go the extra mile. I hope Bozzuto has no plans to give the building to another management company. There are frequent resident events as well. The rooftop pool is a huge plus - it's never super crowded either. The staff also tends to remember resident names. If you're looking to move to Columbia (easy to reach route 29) you should definitely visit/tour Lakehouse.

I honestly can't express how happy we are to have found the Enclave at Emerson. We have enjoyed…read moreevery aspect about living here in this community. I am very particular about many things and let me say they check the box in everything when it comes to an ideal community..probably even better than ideal. Let me start with the office staff--Luther, Daryl and Josh are some of the most genuine people. They are very good at addressing any questions or requests I have in prompt manner. The property manager, Luther Crawford, really lives up to all of the amazing reviews-- I'm so impressed with how well he runs this community and goes above and beyond. Always with a smile on his face asking how you or your family are doing...he isn't just asking to sound nice, he truly means it! He really cares about his residents and it shows! He has even brought packages right to my doorstep for me!! The maintenance crew, Daryl and Josh, are very friendly and courteous when coming into my apartment for any maintenance & always care to make sure we are comfortable in our home at all times. They respond to maintenance requests practically immediately and always do an exceptional job! Next, the community..anyone I have encountered here is so friendly and easy to spark up a conversation with. It makes me super thankful to live in a place full of so many warm personalities! Additionally, there are beautiful amenities, which include a wonderful swimming pool (complete with a kiddie pool area for the little ones), a beautiful gym and a clubhouse that holds frequent events for families! Bottom line, I have lived in many apartments, but Luther and his staff go above and beyond to set themselves apart from all the rest. They know just how to care for their residents all while maintaining an extraordinary amount of professionalism & ensuring all move in & administrative processes go as smooth as possible. I'm so happy we chose to move into this community. I hope this review is a reason for you to want to save your time looking anywhere else. You won't regret choosing to live here. Quite frankly, you'll never want to leave!

I lived here from spring of 2023 till the summer of 2024. This is going to be a long one…read more The reasons why it's not a 5-star review: - The lack of consequences for dog feces/urine in the pathways of residents (indoor/outdoor) - The residents don't pick up/clean after their dog's feces/urine (there are bags available and trash bins available throughout the complex) so it's common to step on dog poop while walking on the sidewalk. The smell of feces in the grass too is very unpleasant. - The lack of consequences for unleashed dogs - it's in the leasing agreement and a violation if not followed. While it was a pet friendly apartment - there wasn't much enforcement for any irresponsible dog owners who let their dog unleashed (besides in the dog park). - Fitness center - had only 1 working treadmill for quite some time and some weights were missing, finally by summer 2024, they updated the facility, and it looks great. - Depending on which person in the leasing office is sorting through the mail in the package room, your package may be easy to find or sometimes not. - Lack of consistent notification of when the leasing office is closed. On some holidays, the leasing office team does not give notice if their office is closed. Some holidays aren't observed for residents but at the very least there should be some notice. - Lack of security. For the entire duration of my residency, at least 10 cars have been broken into and or bricked (wheels stolen), even in the parking garage. The culprits targeted Toyota sedans (Corollas, Camry's) and the occasional Honda sedans. It sucks for those residents affected, not sure what was done to mitigate that issue. - A longtime resident I had made friends with even mentioned that the service/maintenance has gone downhill, so they were on their way out after living there for a few years. - Leasing office rarely answers their phone, you're better off emailing them or going in-person. - Residents are driving way too fast in the parking lots and especially the garage that has caused a near hit of residents, their kids, pets, and other cars. - There are only 2 elevators and only 1 can be used for moving-in/moving out and this is in the main building so you're SOL if you're in the other buildings (have to use stairs), or if the freight elevator is broken. There's no loading dock for moves and some locations for a particular apartment isn't convenient for movers = you may be charged more if you're moving in/moving out using moving companies. - The pricey rent did not equate to the overall maintenance of the complex, services, lack of security, and amenities that was offered. The reasons why it's a 3-star review: - Katie's attentiveness and kindness from when I first moved in to all the way till I moved out - she's the reason why this not a 2-star review. - The proximity of the apartment complex, it is so close to many stores, grocery, mall, etc. - The maintenance team. Anytime you need to get something fixed, the maintenance team is really quick. Don't read the apartments(.)com reviews. I was basing my decision to move into this apartment through that site and sorta regret it (moved from CA to MD).

Available units are not move-in ready to be rented. Once they have a prospective tenant, then they…read morewill prepare the unit. The staff needs some training in customer service and hospitality. They are rude, and they act like they are being bothered. If you're paying rent close to $3000+ a month, they need to be a little more polite, and Bozzuto needs to pay them a decent salary To attract better employees. Apparently, leasing office staff don't appreciate having a paid job. Staff don't answer the phone, and they don't respond to phone calls. They don't return emails. Maybe, they need more staff. So, unprofessional. Staff needs training! It is a nice location. Rather than hardwood floors, they have carpet. Carpet is old and HVAC system is not cleaned properly. residents leave the trash bins out on non pickup days smelling up the place and creating a potential problem with rodents. There's an extra charge for trash pickup. It should be included in the high rent. Unit and layout are tiny, appliances are old. Rather than a walk in shower and tub, units have 2 bathtubs. Outdated. Photos on their onsite gallery have color, accent walls and curtain rods. Actually, Units wall are all beige. No crown moldings or chair rails. Very plain. No curtain rods. Limited shelving in closets. Wooden cabinets are worn and water damaged. The only lobby is the main bldg. Only one building has an elevator. The other buildings have four flights, no elevator. There's no real security, and the garage is very dark with limited lighting. Drivers speed throughout complex. This location is not managed like a typical Bozzuto property. corporate either doesn't know or doesn't care due to a housing shortage. I don't like key fobs because it's computer-controlled and others could potentially have access to your unit.

I lived in stone point for about a year and a half, ending in August 2015. The management had a lot…read moreof turnover in the time that I lived there, with the exception of the assistant manager Roxanne. The professionalism of the team never dipped despite all the personnel changes. Whether that's Roxanne's doing, or Bozzuto's training program I can't say. I could sit here and nitpick about little things, but bottom line, having lived in a few locations in Annapolis, I don't think you're likely to find a better apartment in town. As for the little things: the heating and ventilation system in my apartment was a little below average. The fan didn't quite push all the air to the farthest room, resulting in a bedroom that was 10 degrees cooler in winter and 10 hotter in summer. Parking was also sometimes messy. It usually wasn't too bad as long as the neighbors followed the rules, but every now and then some people would take a garage spot they weren't entitled to the night before a snowstorm, betting on the tow truck not showing up. With such a small lot for such a big building, you have to accept you might walk a bit if you get home from work at 7:30. That being said, the management was taking measures as I left to address parking problems, which seemed promising. In conclusion, please refer to paragraph number 2. No place is perfect. In Annapolis, I'm pretty sure this is as close to perfect as you'll find. Thanks Roxanne, Lauren and co. for a great couple of years!

My experience with Stone Point's New Management: A Lesson in Making Money…read more 1. Raising Fees Without Real Solutions The new management increased the trash fee, but did nothing to prevent daily illegal dumping. Instead of investing in cameras or keypad access, they simply raised costs for residents. Contractors make daily visits to dump trash. 2. Free Amenities for Everyone--Except Residents Stone Point's car wash and vacuum are accessible to anyone--no cameras, no enforceable restrictions. Residents end up subsidizing these amenities for the public. 3. Turning Community Space Into Profit The clubhouse conference room was converted into a for-profit vending area, eliminating a valuable community resource. 4. Aggressive Visitor Parking Fees Visitor parking now costs $12 per day after office hours, with towing strictly enforced. Even a short 15-minute visit costs $2. Despite ample parking, aggressive ticketing and towing are used as a revenue stream. Saturday parking is free after midnight, but this isn't DC or Bethesda--these policies are simply about making money. 5. Neglecting Resident Security Despite all the fees, management has not invested in security cameras. On my first weekend, a break-in attempt occurred. I had to physically prevent the intruder from entering until police arrived and made an arrest. Conclusion: After paying $8,000 to break my lease and move out, I realized I was subsidizing non-residents who enjoyed the same amenities I was paying for. It would have been more honest to simply raise the rent rather than implement hidden fees and reduce transparency.

I lived at The Vine for a total of four years and moved out in August 2025. During that time, it…read moregenuinely felt like home. I initially moved in during a period of personal transition, and The Vine provided stability, comfort, and a strong sense of community. I moved out not because of any dissatisfaction, but simply because it was time for the next chapter and to move into a house. One of the defining strengths of The Vine is the staff. The building is consistently clean and well maintained, thanks in large part to Sammy and his wife in the janitorial department, who are kind, attentive, and always willing to help. Nick and Jaycee in the management office are professional, responsive, and easy to work with. Cynthia deserves special recognition. She truly elevates the experience of living here. Her warm, welcoming presence makes a real difference; she is consistently courteous, friendly, and genuinely makes residents feel at home. In my view, she is the heart of the building, and The Vine would not feel the same without her. The building itself has a polished, almost hotel like feel. Amenities include a pool, a 24 hour gym, dedicated meeting rooms, and a resident activity space with a pool table and bar. There are multiple outdoor kitchens that are great to use when the weather is nice. A trail directly behind the building leads to Maple Lawn, and the location offers very convenient access to Routes 29 and 32, with easy connections to I 95. Community building is clearly a priority here. The Vine regularly hosts resident events such as resident nights, game nights, Halloween and Christmas parties, National Donut Day celebrations, and more. They also bring food trucks on a routine basis, which makes it easy to grab something different on a weeknight without leaving the building. As a small but meaningful detail, the building almost always smells great, which adds to the overall experience. Parking is another highlight. The garage has five levels, and as an electric vehicle owner, I appreciated the availability of eight EV chargers. Over the years, the number of electric vehicles in the building increased significantly, and residents were consistently respectful about communicating and sharing access. That cooperative dynamic reflects the broader sense of community. The apartments offer a range of layouts, from smaller units to three bedroom options. I lived in a three bedroom apartment that was just over 1,400 square feet, which felt like a comfortable and reasonable amount of space for me and my two kids. What stood out most over the four years I lived here was the diversity of residents. The community includes young professionals, retirees, small families, and people and families in the early stages of building their lives, as well as others in different transitions. That mix contributes to a welcoming, inclusive environment. Overall, The Vine is a well run community where people look out for one another and where the staff makes a genuine effort to create a warm, supportive place to live. It served an important role in my life, and I look back on my time there very positively.

Pros: -Maintenance requests are responded to quickly -Private parking lot -Good rates for Columbia -Spacious apartments -Close to a pool, but not a private pool. -Great access to Snowden River Parkway, 32, and 95. -Close to a park with a large field, basketball courts, and a large playground. -Fresh carpets and paint when you move in. -Washer and dryer in each unit. Cons: -Most of the residents are rude people. They park in the fire lanes overnight and double park your car to run into their apartment. They really do not care. -Our "heat" was basically slightly warm air (the ward warm seems generous). We put in requests to get it fixed and they came and said it worked. We finally gave up and bought space heaters. -My apartment smelled like smoke and we do not smoke. -The walls are pretty thin between apartments. -There are at least 3 or more broken down cars taking up prime parking spots. -The kitchen is tiny. Hard for two people to cook at once. -You have to get Comcast. There is no wiring for Verizon FiOS. -The kitchen needs to be renovated. The garbage disposal is a P.o.S. -Bathrooms could stand to be renovated. -Cops frequent the parking lot. That cannot be a good sign. My honest opinion would be to pony up a bit more cash and live in a better complex.
