Tanglewood Apartments

I’ve been here for 4 years and all 4 I’ve had problems with squirrels living above me in the attic.
The problem has been temporarily fixed but nothing permanent as of yet. So hard to sleep with squirrels scratching at your ceiling and making noises.
I am told all the time when I call the office about this problem that they are working on it but nothing seems to be working.
I’ve asked in the past to talk to somebody at the corporate office but they will not give me a name or a phone number to contact them.
Am I going to have to contact the local media about this problem? Then, maybe, the issue will get fixed.

I’ve lived here for 7 months. And that’s 7 months too long. I’ve found that my experience here has been one awful thing after another.
ANTS! Being a clean, (not perfec but clean) person… I’ve never had any bugs in the house. I’ve had complete ant infestations 3 times! The only thing the office did was send maintenance personnel with three tiny ant traps. When you’re dealing with thousands of ants, this gesture is laughable. After two weeks of those not making a difference, they sent more… oh joy! After a good FOUR WEEKS of my apartment being taken over by ants, they sent an exterminator. Thank God!
The walls are paper thin! I moved in here with an infant and was horrified that every time someone came in either door of the building it would wake her and she’d begin crying-​which probably wasn’t any fun for my neighbors either. When you walk into the hallway, you know what everyone is doing. Conversations, television shows, and general household chores would echo leaving you with absolutely no privacy! Plan on having sex anywhere in your apartment? Know that your neighbors can hear.
I don’t even know where to begin with maintenance. 80% of the reason I chose this particular complex was due to the washer/​dryer in each unit. Well, in the 7 months I’ve been here my washer and/​or dryer had broken down about 10 times! And if it happens to break down on a Friday, you’re screwed for the entire weekend! Picture that with a child starting sold foods!
I shouldn’t be 100% negative. They do cool community things like bingo, pizza parties and a communal garden.
Happy searching!

Oak Creek is definitely not Milwaukee’s east side. While I missed the food & entertainment options the east side provided, I did not miss having to find a parking spot everywhere I went, nor did I miss the higher rent I’d have to pay if I lived there.
Tanglewood Apartments has treated me kindly. Management is incredibly friendly and willing to help with the task at hand. Maintenance is always there to fix the problem promptly.
In the twelve months I’ve lived here, I never heard a neighbor unless I was in the hallway. It’s a really quiet experience that’s well landscaped and maintained. I highly recommend Tanglewood to anyone who is looking for a place with lower rent than an east side location. It’s right off the highway, so commuting to work is also a breeze.
