On a more personal experience note - Lindsay, the property manager, has been incredible. She is always interested in finding ways to make life better for residents."

"Would not recommend these apartments -- management will not enter leases after 7/31 and will try to charge you for items that were notated on your check in form. They literally have a check out list that details all of the creavses you HAVE TO clean to get your security deposit back. Rouse is purely interested in their profits and not putting their residents first."

"We lived in Cortland commons apartment and loved our unit. Lindsay is an amazing manager and she's always super helpful. The location is also very nice. Underground parking and plenty of parking outside."

"I've lived at Cortland Pond for about three years now and it's been great. The apartment is in good repair, and the three or four times I've needed maintenance in the past three years they've responded very quickly. My interactions with management have been limited (office hours are pretty much contained within standard working hours, and this isn't the place to go for community events), but the interactions I've had have been prompt and courteous. Plus it's super quiet (at least in my apt, which granted is top floor and pretty far from any road). Before moving here I did quite a lot of research comparing pretty much every available apartment complex on the far west side, and this was the one that met all my requirements (spacious, open layout, great location, good repair, underground parking, safe) while still being very affordable. You won't get the luxury you will at some of the pricier options in the area, but I'll take the couple hundred dollars a month in place of things like granite counter tops or a second swimming pool."
