My husband and I lived here for 2 and a half years before we moved to Lincoln at Ovaltine. We lived in an 850 square foot apartment and paid around $900-$1000 a month.The first year and a half we lived here, it was the best! The amenities were awesome, the indoor swimming pool with retractable roof was a lot of fun, the hot tub was great in the winter, the pool table, Foosball table, and ping pong made for some great evenings at home, and the staff was friendly (although sometimes difficult to find). We would always joke that the only thing wrong with the place was that we'd never want to leave! We started seriously considering trying to talk the management into turning the apartments into condos so we could buy. Then, things started going wrong. They turned down the temperature in the pool so cold that even KIDS wouldn't swim in it, the filtration system in the hot tub broke and started dumping sand into the hot tub (so much that people would scoop it off the bottom and build sandcastles on the edge of the tub), things started breaking on the game tables and management did not fix it. The building was renovating all of the apartments to make them nicer for all the doctors and nurses they thought were going to move in (a new hospital was supposed to have been built down the road), and during the renovating, they would start construction at 7 in the morning!!! When we confronted management about this, they waved it off and claimed I had a "strange work schedule" which is why it was bothersome to me, and that maybe I should try wearing ear plugs. Call me a snob for getting angry, but we were paying over $1,000 a month at this point for this tiny apartment and now we have to wear ear plugs to get some sleep? Then we got the bombshell. Because they thought all these rich nurses and doctors were going to live there now, they told all of the current tenants that they had a choice: either move into another apartment in the complex and pay $300 - $500 more in rent per month, OR leave completely. We were already paying slight over $1000 a month for our small apartment (which was unremarkable if you didn't count the community amenities) and thought this was really high, even if it was renovated. And, no matter which one you chose, you still had to move! People started moving out in droves. So many people were moving, you had to secure the elevator in four hour blocks two weeks in advance. The day we moved out, two other people in our hallway were moving, too... and there's only four apartments in our portion of the hallway. The people who were staying got all snobby and said that the people moving out were just "too poor" and good riddance... all the riff-raff were moving out. I just didn't understand that attitude coming from our former neighbors, when there were never any noise complaints or partying, and all of the people that I knew who were moving were very clean, quiet people. Anyways, we made the mistake of moving to Lincoln at Ovaltine, which was MUCH worse.5/25/08: By the way, it's been almost 2 years, and they still haven't broken ground on that hospital. I bumped into one of the other former tenants about a year ago, and he told me that there's barely anyone left at Elm Creek. Also, I ran into the manager of the community and she said renovations are STILL going on, and we moved out two years ago! It's such a shame... that apartment was so great! Well, I guess that's what happens when you have bad management and business decisions.
