Cedar Ridge Apartments 10201 Cedar Lake Road South, Hopkins, MN 55305

"Have lived here for 10 years with my family without much trouble BUT the management doesn’t know how to turn off the heaters during the summer. As I’m currently writing this the heaters are turned on with 90 degree weather. Past years have even had us suffer until the end of summer with constant air conditioning turned on. Makes me wonder if they want electric bills to go up. The only justification for this has been to provide comfort for elderly residents, but I can’t see this being comfortable for anyone. Other than that issue everything else is fine around here. Buildings are quickly taken care of in the winter for snow removal and it is a comfortable place to live in when it’s not summer."

"HONEST review.The good, the bad and ugly. UGLY: Do NOT trust staff. Take pics and get things in writing to protect yourself. Document! Read your tricky lease and ask for a printed copy. Staff also not knowledgeable and main office for Sella Group doesn't respond to multiple calls. When I finally got a response to an on going issue,it was because they thought I had put out a bad review and it wasn't even me. Lol.*smh BAD: Ventilation system horrible. You will smell neighbors cigarette smoke and other odors. Lots of water breaks in apartment. I had three water damage stains on my ceiling. Two leaks happened within 6 months. GOOD: Not alot of theft. Other residents didn't take packages. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. I'd see Bob out picking up around the building....often. Maintenance was usually on top of things and knowledgeable. Pool clean. Lots of dog walking areas. Felt safe."

"The building manager is great. The property is okay. However, be prepared to have packages lost/stolen, be lied to, and have them "lose" things in the mail. My carpets were concealed by boxes when I did my walkthrough. Upon moving in, they were in embarrassing shape with stains everywhere. Was told they'd be replaced. They then refused to do so. So I lived for two years with carpets I was embarrassed to show people, even after repeated attempts to get them to honor their word. They lost my notice to vacate in the mail. Never contacted me that they hadn't received a response from me about my lease. This put me on a month to month lease, upped my rent by $125, and caused me to lose a $500 deposit I had put in on a new place. I will never live at another Sela property."

"Don't move in here if you love a peaceful home and if you are sensitive to noise! Absolutely loud neighbors live above me and I have provided constant proof to the landlord, but they don't bother to do anything! The slightest noises are easily heard through the walls, now imagine that x10000 and hearing that all the time. There is absolutely no insulation within the walls to block any noise. Overall, nice area and property to live on, but the managers give you no mercy if you have a problem with your neighbors being loud all day and night.Take away the people, and I would give this place a 5!"

"I will highly recommend this place for all!! My husband and I searched for a long time apartment to rent and now that I've been here more than six months, I can say I'm happy about our choice! you get great value for the price that you pay. The buildings are kept very clean and whatever you need is very close to this area. The amenities are TOP NOTCH, and management is VERY nice and react quickly to any issue I've ever had. The office staff are always available to help me with packages or questions I want to note especially Amy Gonyea and Rena that are were very helpful and helped me in everything I asked for!! love living at cedar ridge !"
