The Barnum

Lived at The Barnum Apartments in White Bear Lake for a little over a year. My apartment is absolutely beautiful, the maintenance staff here does a marvelous job, and it's a really lovely property close to everything I need.

Amenities

Quite often the amenities are not working. Pool was not heated all summer! We oaid for a heated pool. No community events. Carpets are disgusting-stains. You offer new residents a sign bonus but offer nothing for current residents ( who have been good residents) anything to resign… Hard to resign-especially with new building right next door with more ammenities for same rent.

Not worth it

I have lived here since it opened and unfortunately the noise has only gotten worse over the years. The insulation is very poor, so your floors can vibrate from music/TV downstairs, people upstairs sound like they're riverdancing, music thuds through your walls, and you can hear other various activities in certain rooms. They also pipe music outside by the pool the entire day which is very loud if you face it, and the commercials are even louder. There are rowdy groups of people that take over the pool/patio every night and while management has tried to curb some of it, they either just give warnings or a short ban from the pool (but not patio) and then they're back at it. Several residents have compared this place to a dorm, which I would agree with. The appliances are fairly cheap and the washing machine and dishwasher can leave residue on your clothes and dishes, but I'm not sure what it is. The fact that they built the property with the pool in the very center makes no sense, and I and many other residents have said we can't go enjoy the pool or bonfire area because of the groups that hog it and also because of music blasting that we don't want to listen to when we just want to read in the sun. There is also a new mega property being built immediately next door and the outside parking will convert to permit only, and there are already not enough spots so having guests over will be very hard. Again, management has finally this year done more to try and curb some resident behaviors like dogs running around off leash, public intoxication resulting in harassment and excessive/inappropriate behaviors, etc. but it's not enough. Although the apartments are a decent price compared to other "luxury" apartments, for your own sanity it is probably better to spend more elsewhere and have more quiet.
