We've lived here a little over a year. We chose these apartments as we loved the "park like…read moresetting" of our large "backyard". They do a great job of keeping up the grounds and the maintenance team is amazing (and kind). I'm not sure if this is true across the complex, but the people in our building are kind and thoughtful. The complex isn't huge which I think helps keep the community feeling a little more. There are many dogs here (we have an ESA dog - in our photos) and I'm thrilled that I rarely see dog poop around here. We also love the easy access to Steilacoom Park (and walk there daily). The buildings were built in the 70s (I think) and have some quirky things about them (e.g. 15 A circuits which blow a lot) but many of the units are updating to various degrees. But I take the grounds and neighbors over a modern unit. We do periodically have to do battle with ants :-) Yes... all of the photos are really of our dog, but they show the backyard really well (and some of the many visitors we get)

Its like a small zoo around here - LOL. Seriously - the grounds are well maintained.

All are in various stages of remodel so there is a great lack of consistency. Some have not been touched in what looks like decades while others seem to have a quick face lift to hide the neglect and disrepair underneath so don't get too commited to any photos you see of the place. Nothing of any significance gets done. Most of the focus is placed on "beautifying" things so expect regular issues with plumbing, mold, dry rot and just about any and everything you can imagine in properties that haven't been properly maintained. The manager manages several other properties and frankly can't keep up. Their current maintainence works at several properties along with her and is clearly not competent enough to do anything beyond a rush job/bandaid solution. Which has been the case with a long string of maintainence that comes and goes here. In the course of my (and my family's) regrettable 5 years at this location we've had cabinets destroyed from a faulty sink sprayer hose, floor destroyed from flooding dishwasher and their own maintainence (at the time an individual named Josh), baseboards scraped up by maintainence, counters messed up by maintainence, nails through feet from exposed strip of nails under carpet and the list goes on and on. The final straw for my family and I was 5 years of worsening mold growth that went ignored by management. Each year getting worse and worse. They finally sent 2 third party people they hired out and not only confirmed the issue, but that we are in no way responsible nor could we have prevented it. Mind you, this occured after their current maintainence (Charles) coming in for all of 3 seconds and trying to blame us and making ignorant comments of "I'm no doctor, but your kid seems fine" in response to our complaints about the mold issue. That alone should make anyone considering living here go elsewhere. Who on earth wants to end up paying for damages they didn't cause or risk their health because incompetent employees can't be bothered to do their job?! So a month later was the problem fixed? Nope! There's always a reason to drag their feet. If something unimportant needs to be done they can't send maintainence out fast enough to fix/botch the job. Anything serious, don't hold your breath. Don't learn the hard way like us! Look elsewhere.

Bottom line up front: Dont live here!…read more I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment here for 6 months. I had originally signed up for a month to month apartment because I knew I was set to deploy to Afghanistan a few months after arriving at JBLM. To begin with, and this should have been the first red flag. The management person miscalculated my initial move in costs and then tried to tell me that I was late on my first payment a week later even though I had paid a prorated rate for my initial week and the following month. They tried to charge my for a late charge of $50 for the $60 difference they had miscalculated. I got that resolved after bestowing some logical thought process on the otherwise room temperature IQ of the manager who will remain nameless. Well I came to find out that there is some fine print that was not disclosed to me when I signed my rental contract that states its "month to month" for a minimum of 9 months. So come time to serve my country, I had my deposit withheld for breaking my lease to include some additional charges for burnt out light bulbs and other "wear and tear" items around the apartment that were not functional to begin with. I even paid 3 weeks beyond my move out to compensate them through the end of the month even though I got orders to deploy 3 days before my flight left. So one months rent, my deposit and $100 in additional charges is what it cost me to deploy. So even though I gave them contact info for my deployment, they sent a letter to my home of record (my folks) threatening to go to collections for the additional charges without ever contacting me first. Terrible management that is in the business of collecting deposits and screwing over Soldiers. I wont be seeing any of my deposit, but if I can forewarn at least one Soldier from falling into their little scheme they run over there Ive done my job. If the above isn't enough, the living conditions are pretty poor as well. Mediocre to poor fit and finish of all finish work. Traffic noise from Steilacoom Blvd can be pretty bad through their cheap un insulated windows Bottom line: Find somewhere else to live

My wife…read moreand I recently toured Harbor Oaks because we were seriously considering leasing a two-bedroom apartment there. We were excited about the layout, the location, and what seemed like a family-friendly environment until we walked the grounds. While looking around we noticed several dogs running loose in different areas without any owners in sight. One dog in particular stood out a large muscular breed that appeared very aggressive. It was barking loudly, lunging toward people, and had no leash or supervision. My kids were right beside me, and I had to quickly pick them up and move away. My heart was racing the entire time. As a dad, my number one priority is keeping my family safe, especially my little ones who are still so small and curious about everything around them. I understand that pets are allowed, and that's fine, but loose, aggressive dogs in common areas create a serious safety risk. I kept imagining what could happen if one of my children wandered too close or if a dog got startled. We just can't take that chance. After talking it over with my wife, we decided with heavy heart that we cannot move into the community. We were really hoping this would be our new home. But the safety of our kids must come first. Sincerely, Logan Powell.
