Lived in MuseumWalkApts since June 2025. The experience hasn’t been all that great but there has been a few exceptions; the property managers and maintenance staff are awesome. The location is great but the constant noise from the overhead apartment and outside the building downgrades it.

I absolutely love living here. The leasing office staff are the most kind and helpful people ever, they truly go above and beyond ???. Every maintenance order is always taken care of and the building itself is very quiet ?

I have been living here for month and a half and so far, and my experience has been good. I like the location of the building but parking is kinda difficult for my guests.

I feel safe but I feel I am paying for the lake view. The maintenance is done right away but the rent goes up every lease renewal and then they attach a $50 Comcast fee you have to pay whether you already have Comcast or not. No negotiating......not a good deal after the first year lease.
