Ponderosa Apartments

The property has been under some ownership changes over the years, and each staff have always been amazing! Most of my issues are due to the way apartments are usually handled, prepared for renters and were present on move-in. Such as cabinet paint that is not proper and peels like rubber over time. Those cabinets are driving me insane as the paint was not done smoothly and the yellow plastic undertones show through the thick coats. Once it starts peeling, it just keeps peeling. Very sloppy caulking and painting on porch door that is yellow and smeared on the glass until I scraped it a bit more smoothly, Not by the current owners or staff. A few agreements have been made in the past such as an accent wall or carpet shampooing that did not happen, due to bad timing and ownership changes. Now it is a little late for the accent wall, but we did finally get a carpet shampoo from the current ownership and staff! I really miss the office being able to accept packages to save a trip to the post office. I miss frequent office raffles. I am extremely grateful for the new laundry machines, even if a unit with a hookup would be best. Some of the older apartments with long term residents could probably be updated, as they tend to get left behind with appliances, carpet colors, window replacements, etc. Our windows have never been great and leak water/air like crazy. I am tired of the caulk/strip solution and it doesn't last long. I also think removing the mini-gym downstairs was very sad, as TV was always an option down there. Just needed a new treadmill that didn't squeak so much. We have used the BBQ grills though! Amazing feature. I love how much light comes into the apartments. Not a great area of town anymore, but so much better and feels nicer than other surrounding complexes at the same price. I feel picky and awkward asking about these things, but they are the little things that have ever led me to look around at other complexes. Thank you to staff for all you do!

I'm having a good time. I wish laundry was more functional, but I don't think the machines are managed by onsite maintenance. Those guys are awesome

I've been living here for awhile. The rent is less than what some places are going for. I have lots of room to store things. They provide a good amount of parking. The area is central and within walking distances of grocery stores: fitness center: with many restaurants. They provide a laundromat; using either quarters, or an app called Payrange. They have a swimming pool as well. The noise level is good. The T-Mobile building; blocks out the concussive sound. I lived in the inner city before. It can get very loud most times. The way the buildings are positioned and faced helps with noise pollution and reverb. They provide outdoor propane gas grills. I like to cook steaks and other meats. However you have to provide your own propane. And utensils, like tongs, and a cleaning brush. Side walks are clean. The neighbors are kind. They do there own thing. If your an introvert like me. Its a perfect location to be. Just be respectful with the noise. Like don't play loud music late at night before peoples' work day. They need sleep, so they can get to there jobs. The employee staff, are responsive. I locked myself out of the laundry. And within 30 mins received a call back. After a maintenance issue post. The question I had was answered well. If your looking for a relaxing apartment space to live in. This is one of them.

Great place to live, knowledgeable staff, good value for price and great location
