Woodstone Apartments

"Mindy the property manager is super great, very friendly and is very personable. Dan the maintenance guy is phenomenal. He is on top of things and does a great job. Best apartment complex we have ever lived in. Only issue is that I have a service dog and some residents complained about where she went to the bathroom, I picked up poo, but couldn’t control pee. But overall everyone is extremely friendly. Highly recommend. Service is great. Only left because our family is growing and we needed a house."

"I lived at Woodstone for 2 years. Absolutely NO complaints about my neighbors, nor noise. The grounds and building are very well taken care of by Dan and Mindy was always a great help in anything that was needed. My neighbors were always friendly and nice. If I ever move in to an apartment again, I would definitely consider Woodstone."

"I lived at Woodstone for a year before relocating out of town. I've lived in many communities and I highly recommend Woodstone. Mindy, Dan, Linsay and the entire team have been wonderful in every aspect. Clean, quite neighborhood with excellent amenities and great neighbors."

"I have never wanted to own my own house, I love the idea of apartment living. At 42 years old I have lived in more than my share of apartments and WoodStone apartments has to be one of my favorites, by far! The scenic, what is shedding is peaceful and beautiful. Deer and other wildlife are found throughout the ground and it’s such a serene environment! The clubhouse with the indoor and outdoor pools is such a nice treat. Every apartment get extra storage, and although I wish each unit had its own washer and dryer, the laundry room situated on each floor, is located in a place where it will not disrupt any tenants and so you can do laundry at any time you need. Oh! I nearly forgot to mention all of the nature trails! What a beautiful property. It is located in an incredibly convenient area! I love the security of the enclosed building and all the people I have met, no matter if they are young family, or a retiree, everyone always has a friendly smile and a kind word. I have never felt safer nor happier at an apartment complex. The rates are fair and management has always responded to my questions and requests in a friendly and timely manner. In fact, when I was looking to move, I had just gone through a lot of life changes and was feeling very overwhelmed and lost in my search for a place to call my own. I spoke with Brandee on the phone and she was so incredibly kind, patient, and informative too many questions and multiple phone calls with me. When I came in for my tour, she greeted me with a perfect blend of professionalism and kindness. She made me feel like I was the only priority she had that day and allowed me to ask several more questions and to take my time in viewing the available apartment and the property grounds. At one point I nearly forgot that I was touring an apartment, it was more like visiting with a friend. one point I nearly forgot that I was touring an apartment, it was more like visiting with a friend. I am so thankful to live there and it will be a sad day when I have to move!"

"I was a bit trepidatious at heading back to apartment living after 20+ years of being in a house. However, when we stumbled upon Woodstone Apartments, I knew we were in the right place. But first, a bit of background on Parkview Hills, where Woodstone Apartments is located. Established in the late 1960s by Dr. Batts (founder of the Kalamazoo Nature Center, as well as a professor of ecology and ornithology at Kalamazoo College) and Mr. Upjohn (you'll be familiar with that name - he was a local businessman and philanthropist; the ER at Borgess Medical Center is named after him), this planned community includes houses, condos, and apartments. There are 288 acres in Parkview Hills, which include several lakes, streams, marshland, fields, wooded areas, and plenty of trails. Living here is like living AT a nature center - but with the amenities of being on a city bus route, and a gorgeous and useful clubhouse (we use the pool almost every day). We were lucky enough to rent an apartment in Woodstone and have been here for many years. One of the things that I love most about living here is the diversity of fellow tenants. There is a wide age range, from senior citizens to families with young kids. I absolutely LOVE seeing kids play out in the safe, grassy area tucked in the L of the apartment. At night, you'll see other kinds of kids playing - the local fawns! Parkview Hills has a sizeable deer population, and it's just lovely to watch them graze at night. I also appreciate living in a community that is globally diverse. We might need to get some potlucks going up in the gathering room on the 3rd floor! I always learn something from everyone I talk with - everyone is so friendly, and lifelong friendships have been established for sure. Management is efficient and speedy when dealing with requests. Dan (maintenance) is incredibly friendly and good at his job, promptly fixing drains, lightbulbs, and the like; Brandee (property manager) is always swiftly on top of things, especially when dealing with problems that can inevitably arise in an apartment building. I appreciate their thorough and timely assistance when needed. I also love the secure building, the availability of plenty of handicap parking spots, Parkview Hills Security, the amenities of and activities at the clubhouse (Chinese cooking lessons with WMU's Confucius Institute; monthly art gatherings, and the like), and the extensive trails for walking. I can't imagine a better place to live, with better neighbors and management. If you're lucky enough to live here, you'll concur."
