Granite Creek is a gem!

Absolutely gorgeous one bedroom backs up to creek. Quiet, beautiful, modern. Sunken living room with fireplace. Gated and secure community. You’d be hard pressed to find another apartment in such a great area. Even comes with a garage for a little extra! Management is very nice. Pool is refreshing. Friendly neighbors. Granite Creek is where your search should end… the downside — very few vacancies. Everyone loves this location and complex. Oh, and kid friendly… pet friendly.

This is a great place to live. Mindy in the office is terrific, always wanting the tenants to be happy and it show in how quickly she responds to the tenants. Bogden does an excellent job in taking care of any issues that you might have. They also take care of the air filters, smoke detector batteries and light bulbs in the apartment.
Have lived here for over a year and it is a very nice quiet complex. The property is kept clean and is getting a completely new exterior painting starting next week. The 2 bedroom unit is quite unique with the sunken living room and entry that opens to a real entry, keeping the place private when answering the door. Not so in 90% of layouts in the area.
I would recommend thiis complex to anyone that is single or couples looking for a place without an abundance of smaller children. I would not recommend any families with more than one child simply do to the limited closet and storage space that most families would need.

I have lived here for 6 months, and have had no problems at all the place is a quiet and enjoyable living space. The neighbors are all friendly. And the management is attentive to your needs and considerate. I have and will recommend living here to my friends, Associates and colleagues. The pool, Spa and 24 hour workout room are very nice, clean and enjoyable.

People seem to be very nice until they take your money. All the utilities are old and use a lot of electricity so bills will be really high. They seem to care at first and send people to take a look if you have a problem but most often they will not be able to solve it because it cannot be fixed as the problem is with the appliances themselves. I have rented it for a while because it was the only option. I do not recommend to anybody. My experience was very unpleasant. The price of 1250 for 2bd 2bth did not include any utilities.

I lived there for a year back in 2011. Change of Management caused lack of information between the New Management who decided to charge me for things that were not my fault. e.g. Carpet. It was filthy, i was told not to worry about being charged for it, stains popped up 2 weeks after moving in, had their carpet cleaner come and steam clean it (which was free) and he told me the stains were just going to come back up 2 weeks or so later, that they simply needed replacing. I did it mainly cuz i was breaking out from allergies, as i am very allergic to dust mites. They had offered to change the carpet, (which they were doing to many units) but i would have to wait to move in, and i couldn’t wait. I was okay, cuz i wasn’t going to be charged.
So, basically Kiss Your Deposit Good Bye. The paint finally dried on the walls after i moved in, and i could see giant streaks from the paint roller. I asked if i could paint over it, and she said to go right ahead… I got charged for paint, (which they would of had to redo anyways) but whatever. What pissed me off was that I cleaned the HELL out of that apartment before i moved out. You couldn’t pay 4 professionals $ 1000 to clean it better. (I get behind things, that are behind things) I get OCD when it comes to cleaning) I was Charged for Cleaning! I was Charged for Carpets! Yes this new staff, smiled more and actually returned phone calls, but you will pay for that at the end if you don’t check everything on that list twice during the walk through, and then point out the Carpet Stains a couple of weeks later that come up! It DOES NOT MATTER WHAT THEY SAY, If its NOT ON PAPER, Their WORD MEANS NOTHING!
Other than that, My Neighbors were awesome! It was quiet and safe. The Maintenance guy is Reallly Nice… The small work out area has Asbestos, so careful with that, It is on your contract that its not their fault if you inhale it. If you are allowed, put a yellow light outside your door, because bugs will flock to it given that it has a very nice creek and vegetation.

These apartments are the best we’ve ever lived in – little problems as any other place would have. It’s a matter of actually getting someone to fix the problems. We lived there for about a year and a half and over and over again the lady in the office told us they were going to replace our dishwasher-​which leaves soap on our dishes and it never got replaced or even fixed. She sent 5 different people out to look at it and nothing got solved, so finally we gave up. Our back sliding glass door leaks when it rains and they have yet to fix that, or our dryer that has burned holes in our clothes and that has a roller going out. The carpet needed to be replaced before we moved it, but she said once it gets professionally cleaned it’ll be better. Never got any better. It has rips, bleach on it, cigarette holes and stains. If the lady in the office didn’t put things off [forever] or didn’t make everything sound so great when it isn’t or tell residents that she can’t have the owner contact them, this would be 5 stars. Everyone in this complex also pays a different price. The people upstairs from us pay $ 835, and she wants us to pay $ 1,060. It’s the same size — 2 bedroom 2 bath, same sq. ft. She’s raising ours because ‘the economy is getting better.” Sounds like a lie to me. the economy isn’t getting any better.
