    5/5 Dr. D. on Oct 9, 2025

    Living here has been such a treat—it genuinely feels like I’ve checked into an upscale hotel and never left. The atmosphere is polished and welcoming, with thoughtful touches that make everyday life feel elevated. From the moment I arrived, the staff have been consistently friendly, responsive, and professional. They make the community feel cared for, and it shows. The amenities are impressive and well-maintained, adding to that “resort-style” vibe. Whether it’s relaxing in the common areas or just enjoying the peace and quiet of my apartment, it all feels like a getaway—but with the comfort of home. The location is super convenient, close to everything I need, yet still tucked away enough to feel serene. And for the quality of life here, the pricing is more than fair. It’s the kind of place that makes you look forward to coming home every day. Highly recommend to anyone who wants the luxury of a vacation with the stability of home. Oh, they have an upscale coffee machine and the COOKIES--are amazing! I never thought I would have to rent again, but THIS IS the place to be!

    5/5 Dee on Aug 27, 2025

    We love it here—plenty of parking, staff is cool and the AMENITIES ARE TOP NOTCH!!!

    Not a bad community, but the units are over priced for what you pay for. No real amenities, forced valet trash service (which you have to pay for), no security, the Laundromat on site was dismantled in efforts to now charge an additional fee for stackable laundry appliances. I've been a resident for 8 years and have seen 6 different management companies run this community, all with bad reviews on the BBB website. Do your homework before committing to a final decision.

    Everything at Paces Pointe has been amazing other than the maintenance. We have been here barely over a month. When we first moved in we addressed some things that needed to be fixed. A few things have but the major things still have not. They have been quote on quote looked at but not been repaired. Dryer takes 3-4 times to dry clothes dishwasher still doesn’t wash the dishes. Light in kitchen is still halfway hanging. Breezeway lights downstairs and upstairs still do not work which is a safety issue at night. It is honestly starting to be an issue!

    every evening hindu kids playing outside of 305 apartments. they use the handicap ramp as a playground. screaming, hollering, right outside our apartments. their parents show no concern whatsoever. plus the parents are out without wearing a mask, talking in groups, not social distancing. this needs to be addressed. please do not bring up fair housing, which also applies to me.
