"Before coming to the US, we received incredible support from the Village on the Lake team. We spent a wonderful period in the house we rented, thanks to their exceptional assistance. During our time here, we truly felt like we were part of a family, even though we were far from home. We are deeply saddened to have to move out, especially after the constant care and attention from the site management. They made every process so much easier for us, and we felt incredibly supported throughout our stay. When we had to hand over the keys to the office, we did so tearfully, as we couldn't be happy about buying a new home because of our strong attachment to Village on the Lake.
In addition to the management team, the maintenance team also deserves special mention for always responding to our issues immediately, day or night, which made our lives so much easier. The design of our home, its functionality, and the overall experience will always be unforgettable.
I highly recommend everyone to become part of this wonderful community."
"Attention!!! Village on the Lake is THE BEST apartment community in south Houston! My wife and I moved here right after we got married and what a dream it was. The staff is so caring and helpful!! Specifically Griselda and Molly! If you ever have a maintenance problem the staff is always there to help no matter the time or day. We loved living here. The amenities were also great; 3 pools, clear lake in your back yard, 2 gyms and a putting green! We can not recommend Village on the Lake enough. We felt very safe and everyone in this community is nice and pleasant to be around. Very easy move in and out process. Thank ya’ll!!"
"This place used to be great under the old management, but things changed when the new management company took over a couple of years ago. They’ve stopped properly maintaining the property. While there are plenty of trees and landscaping, it’s poorly maintained—except for the front entrance. The abundance of trees and greenery means your car will get dirty often, so you might want to invest in a car wash subscription.
Another major issue is parking. There simply aren’t enough spots, even on regular days. If you arrive after 8 PM, finding a spot is almost impossible, and many people end up parking on the curbs. This problem persists year-round. I lived near the pool area, and during summer, parking became even more of a hassle, as visitors to the pool would take up the limited spaces.
Additionally, this large apartment complex only has two trash compartments, which are often overflowing. As a result, residents frequently have to leave their trash on the ground, attracting raccoons in the evenings. Since the trash areas are located near the entry/exit gates, residents who live farther away have to drive to dispose of their trash, which is highly inconvenient.
The gym is very outdated, needs a major uplift.
Besides this it is a good place, things are near by and it’s very quiet and peaceful."
"The touring, filling out apps and property is great. The office staff is super . Molly was there for every question and concerns. A neighbor is loud, but that's apartment living and dealing with people that don't have a care for others. I love looking at the water everyday. I recommend!"
"I have been living here for 2 years and I'll give you a honest review of this place. I'll start with a quick read (for my readers who are busy) and some detailed response (for those who are weighing their options) below.
Pros:
-Nice view by the lake
-The complementary coffee machine is nice addition
-The business rooms are nice, rarely used so eveything still works
-Close to many common stores (8-20min drive to most stores)
Cons:
-Crime increased significantly under the new management which set roots in 2022 (even those not address by management). Drug transactions in the parking lot is the norm now
-Mold in the units due to poor circulation installed within the unit
-If you don't mind fire alarm cadences (going off) at random times of the day, this place will meet or exceed your expectations. Don't worry, maintence will fix the issue for it to be an issue again in a few weeks.
-Non-residents come through the gate either when the gate is malfunctioning and kept open (which is common) or cars piggy back off you coming in.
-Cars race through the property even with the speed bumps. It has gotten so bad the speed bumps have been ripped off the ground.
-A long overdue construction project (2 years going now) of random residents patio where "construction is almost completed" speech, is told everyday.
-Interior is outdated resulting in calling maintence 2x a month or more (depends on how much you can take with maintence coming in and out of your unit)
-Parking is a first come first serve for non residents because residents here will not find any parking by their place of resident.
-I'm new to Texas but being here I had the luxury of seeing various bugs within our unit. When I go out, management does not maintain walkways or the property, so bugs falling on us is the norm
-The property has dead branches everywhere and hanging over your car which blocks visibility when maneuvering through the property.
-The pools has dogs swimming in them all the time (wash thoroughly after usage)
-You'll have the opportunity to meet the the racoon family by the dumpsters every night, so just watch yourself as management will not do anything for the safety of the Resident (stated in the lease).
Also, enjoy the big hole in the dumpster, that's to allow more garabe in and easier access for the raccoons. Oh almost forgot, watch drainage because that's where they come out of.
As for crime, their are plenty of opportunities such as cars broken into, abandon ambulance who uses residents patio electricity when they are not looking, law enforcement chasing cars within the property, guns being drawn on you for making too much noise, and a resident dropping their gun and accident discharge into another resident's unit. Don't worry, management has been busy, so they have not been able to let people know about this. Stay safe Village!
What's great about this place is shared water but there was no documented policy where construction workers can come willingly onto your patios to use your outlets to complete their project. When addressed to management, we are told the patio outlets do not connect to our electricity (even though our electricity bill was $200+ a month while they worked on our patio and every time they used the outlets, my lights would be flickering.
Make sure you pressure management to clean your carpets before, after, and one more time for safe assurance as mold is a huge problem here. Also, check your vents as mold was growing all throughout the air filters.
So, if looking for a place where you can share your hard earn dollars for construction workers to use your electricity, swim with the dogs in the pool, strengthening your lungs with mold surrounding your living space, spontaneous crime (day or night) or working on getting a couple hours of sleep due to random fire alarms within the unit then come to the Village; they are here with open arms and at your service."
