Settlers Landing Review: Beware of Mice and Poor Management…read moreIf you are considering moving to Settlers Landing in California, Maryland, I strongly urge you to reconsider. My experience here has been nothing short of a nightmare, particularly due to an ongoing mouse infestation that management refuses to properly address. I moved into Settlers Landing in August 2024 for a government position and was led to believe this was one of the best luxury apartments in the area. However, I have now caught five mice in my unit, and the leasing office has done nothing but dismiss my concerns, blame me for the problem, and provide ineffective solutions. Instead of taking meaningful action, they have argued with me about my own traps being more effective than theirs and have shown a complete lack of empathy. From the beginning, the response from management, particularly Sheila Mackle (The Leasing Manager), has been appalling. After catching my first mouse in October, I was initially assured that maintenance would take care of the issue. However, their "inspection" lasted all of three minutes, and they insisted that all entry points were sealed. They left ineffective traps and essentially told me to deal with it myself. Since then, I have caught multiple mice and have been given the same runaround. When I reported the issue again, I was met with dismissive attitudes and told, "Some apartments have mice, and some don't." When I asked why that was acceptable for a so-called luxury apartment, they had no real answer. The exterminators they send spend less than a minute in my unit, contributing nothing to solving the root problem. Probably because they already know that there is a problem, they are just showing face for appearances. Sheila Mackle has not only failed to provide any solutions but has also been rude, condescending, and outright dishonest. She has blamed me for the problem, implied that I am making too much of a fuss, and even tried to prevent me from posting reviews about my experience. It is clear that she is simply a mouthpiece for higher-ups like Ron Nichols (her boss), who has ignored all my emails and has never spoken to me directly. After speaking with other tenants, I have learned that I am far from the only one experiencing this issue. Some residents have been dealing with mice for years, while others have been told similar misleading statements by management. One neighbor even told me he had to remove a pregnant mouse from his home. Despite this, Sheila Mackle and her team continue to claim this is not a widespread issue. Why This Matters? This is not just about mice; it is about a management team that refuses to take accountability and does not care about the well-being of its tenants. Settlers Landing is falsely advertised as a luxury living space, yet tenants are expected to tolerate infestations and mistreatment from staff. Not only that but then want to spike the price up by 200$ when you want to renew the lease, as if they are worth it. I am already paying for a 1 bed room for +2000$ for mice to be living with me. That is unacceptable. The mice is the biggest issue but, I still have dealt with no heat for three weeks (during a winter storm I might add), gnats, paying fines for trash when the trash service does a poor job of picking up trash overnight, water pressure low and more. But those issues to me at least are minor compared to where I draw the line which is mice. I have now contacted the St. Mary's County Health Department regarding this issue, and I urge others experiencing similar problems to do the same. If you are considering moving here, think twice. Management will gladly take your money, but when problems arise, they will gaslight you, ignore your concerns, and leave you to fend for yourself. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere for housing. Settlers Landing is not worth the headache or the price. I promise you this is not luxury. Please find my pictures and email attachments to everything I am saying as proof that this is not the best apartment for the price they are asking.

Maintenance doesn't make any real effort to eradicate the issue and pest control doesn't come out regularly to address the issue. To call themselves luxury and charge and exorbitant fee no one should have to live in an apartment with rat traps in every corner.

You can't watch your daughter's practices, you can't take pictures, you can't have a life that exists outside of your own little ballet world. You can't see your daughter perform without buying a ticket so you can get even more cash. Get a grip! "Charlotte's Web" (if you can call it that) was the last straw! Of all the time, effort and money spent for just that one show, my daughter was only on stage 15 seconds out of the 3 hours. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I cannot fathom why you would do that to her. I gave up (almost) an entire weekend and spent $80 for tickets for my daughter and she, my family and I only got 15 seconds on stage total. Unbelievable! The only reason why you aren't getting a single star is because of the way my daughter is excited to go to class. At least you're doing ONE thing right. Parents: Be prepared to be "nickel-and-dimed" at every possible turn. And if your daughter gets invited to be in a special "show", be sure to ask how much stage time she gets before you say yes. Don't make the same mistake I did.
