    The townhouses, facilities, and grounds are average to good. The negative in my opinion is the sales staff and pricing philosophy. Rent amounts can vary per person. Four people living in one townhouse can pay four different amounts. When there is limited availability, they charge more. The sales associate contacted more than a year in advance letting me know the rent is increasing and if I don’t sign a new lease in the next two weeks It will increase even more. Maybe they used to work in used car sales and get bonuses for signing overpriced leases well in advance.

    Nowhere near enough guest parking spots, and they are crazy about towing. They have this dude that drives around all night on a golf cart and all he does is check cars and harass people. Maintenance is nice but super understaffed, so good luck getting anything fixed in a timely manner. They loooooove to steal security deposits so DOCUMENT EVERYTHING WHEN YOU MOVE IN. Also, wifi is horrible. Not worth the money at all. There are plenty of better places closer to campus for much less.

    DO NOT LIVE HERE. LYING MANAGEMENT. Maple Ridge is a corporate owned community under "Coastal Ridge" based in OH. The management here, as nice as they are, are only looking to maximize margins and appease their corporate office. They have very little ability to do anything their corporate offices don't tell them to, its like an office of robots. I had a number of shady experiences at this location including downright being lied to and a lack of lease enforcement (unless it was to their benefit). Firstly, I was overcharged throughout my entire stay here due to mismanagement of my complaints regarding my unit's thermostat. From the months of January to around April, my utility cost was nearly double EXACT SAME unit layouts (end unit, three bedroom, same street, etc). Many months had average utility bills as high as $140 PER PERSON (3 person unit) even as the weather warmed up. During this period, the thermostat was set to reasonable temps between 70-72 degrees and set to AUTO after the excessive bill in January. The house remained to get between 68 up to 78 degrees regardless of the setting. However, management continued to blame the issue on unit differences, weather, and blamed us for excessive use of AC. As the bills continued to stay high months later, our house even installed a thermostat lock on our thermostat unit to ensure temperatures would stay reasonable. The management then blamed this installation with "damaging" the thermostat citing that "Removing the lockbox with a hammer from the thermostat resulted in damage to the thermostat needing to be replaced". HOWEVER, our house literally has the lockbox intact and had removed the lockbox before the unit had ever been replaced. Once I caught them in this lie, they then told me that "regardless" it was still our fault somehow. I called the utility providers themselves and they informed me that our unit's usage for the year was excessively high and indicated a problem. They even gave me the reports which verified the usage was exceedingly higher than average. I showed all of this to the office and they still insisted it didn't matter. What is interesting here is: Once the thermostat was FINALLY replaced, our bills for June and July dropped down to normal levels. In fact, I received a refund from the utility service for over $100 due to miscalculated billing for ONLY the month of July. I tried many times to be compensated for previous months of overpaid utilities, but the management team would rather lie and deflect than do what is right. Secondly, everyone I knew in the neighborhood was assessed around $200 each in charges upon move-out. It didn't seem to have any rhyme or reason as to why. They were sure to give us VERY particular instructions on how to dispute such charges, my favorite term of which stated management will NOT be accepting phone calls related to move-out charges, you must email with documentation, and are given only ONE chance for resolution. It was an absolutely ridiculous set of guidelines obviously aimed at filibustering you out of any attempt to get your deposit back. Lastly, this neighborhood recently had a major fire incident in another unit as the lease was ending last year. I would be sure to bring a fire extinguisher if you plan on living here, and I hope you like your house around 68 degrees in the winter and 78 degrees in the spring.
