Creekstone Apartments

There are serious Internet issues due to old wiring at this complex. If you work from home or stream Internet, this complex is not an option.

We have only been here for 9 months and would have stayed through our entire lease had we not bought a house.
Management has always been helpful and nice and the grounds are kept nice and clean.
My only complaint would be that a single mom and her two young kids were allowed to move into the third floor. Young kids don’t really grasp the concept of people live under you so we were often woken up around 5:30 on weekends due to the kids above us running and jumping above us. I’ve never filed a formal complaint, but I did knock on their door to let their mom know that they were a little rambunctious. She could really care less.
Other than that, everything has been pretty good. We have had or AC go out twice, but it was fixed very quickly. Appliances work fine and if we ever had any issues, maintenance was on it. Like I said before, we probably would have stayed longer — but with a growing family and the kids above us, a house was more feasible.

I can honestly say this is my favorite of all six places I’ve lived in Houston. The location is in a prime spot if you are needing something close to the beltway, but also somewhat tucked away. The employees here actually CARE about you as a resident, and as a person. I have had a few strange requests and they always seem to be able to accommodate my needs or at least work with me on them.
Here are some of the other PROs:
–Very clean community: rarely see bugs because they spray regularly and the two dumpsters on property are well-​maintained
–Very safe: the gates to the community stay closed ²⁴⁄₇ unlike other apartments who only close them at night and there are also multiple officers who live on the property
–Friendly & professional residents/​neighbors
–Reliable maintenance staff: Typically the staff responds to issues within 24 hours
–No issue with parking (at least not around my building), although some of the spots can be pretty compact, but not all
–Well-​lit at night
–Easy online portal with automatic rental payment and quick maintenance requests
–Beautiful landscaping/​wooded area with a direct entrance to Terry Hershey Park for great bike riding or running/​walking
–Quiet community: aside from the highway which you can hear only if you’re outside
–Gas grills by pool area
–Pet park with obstacles and dog wash area
Realistically, there are a few downfalls — CONS:
–Smelly water treatment/​sewage plant that is right by the apartments so sometimes at night you will smell rotten eggs. not every night, but probably once or twice every week at least.
–Prices of apartments fluctuate a lot and can often sky-​rocket if someone shows interest in the floor plan you are looking at (price lock is available but only for 3 business days from when you receive a quote)
–Sprinklers come on at odd hours of the day and at different parts of the property: I’ve had to walk through some several times
–Volleyball court/​pet stations aren’t always well-​maintained: occasionally the pet stations will run out of bags, sometimes for two weeks at a time.
–Some of the apartments have different features than others: digital A/​C control, versus dial A/​C control, some balconies have fans, some don’t: it’s hard to say what your apartment will have
–No outlets on balconies so that means no fun holiday lights :(
–There have been a few break-​ins in the apartments that line up to the bayou: Management did a great job to notify everyone immediately
Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this apartment complex, ask for Michael or David – both are friendly and great!

This apartment complex is one of the best apartments to live and are very clean free of insects roaches etc. I loved living here for few months. The rent is little higher but other than that the complex is the best so far I have seen in Houston.

I have lived at this complex for more than a few years. They are properly managed and most everyone agrees that they do a great job. The apartments are nice inside and out. The complex is located in a fantastic spot in Houston. Our rent just went up higher but you pay for what you get. I can sleep good at night feeling my vehicles are safe from drug addicted zombies. We never hear those typical loud boom boom bass speakers driving around our complex. The walls are thin and the windows are not insulated so noise from outside is heard inside. Parking is limited but there is room for everyone somewhere. No bus stop nearby means less crime. I know several people who walk the property looking for those who don’t belong here. I own a tree service and love trees around my home, just like it is here.
We love it here, we protect our own apartment and like Texans we protect each other too.
Thank you to the management who treat us fairly and with respect, unlike other apartment complexes that we have lived in before.

We are on our second year here and loving it. Originally we had planned to stay a year and then get a house. But Creekstone certainly doesn’t make us want to move.
The office staff are very curtious and professional. Maintenance is always quick to fix any issue big or small. Our washer had a huge leak today. I called the office immediately and they quickly dispatched maintenance for us. Our microwave suddenly broke a few weeks ago. We had a new one the next day.
The pool area and gym are well maintained and we use them often.
We haven’t had any major safety problems. We have reported a few suspicious looking vehicles, especially cars that seemed to be waiting by the gate so they could get in when a resident came through using their remote. We also complained about people leaving menus on our door and Jahova’s witnesses knocking on our door at 8am. Management assured us they do what they can to keep these pests out of the complex.
There have been maybe three break ins since we got here. At least two were on the first floor and the residents had failed to lock their back porch door.
We have never had any issues with the neighbors; no noise issues or anything of that nature. We also haven’t experienced any noise pollution from Sam Houston tollway.
We live on the third floor with a gorgeous view of the bayou and a full porch screen keeps out most bugs year round. Being close to Terry Hershey park is great for us because it’s so easy to go for a run or a bike ride.
Parking is ample and we have never felt the need to pay for a reserved spot or a garage.
Overall we are very happy we chose to make our home at Creekstone.

Don’t move in here! I got robbed yesterday and I’m sure management did something to slip up or are trying to hide their tracks.
First, you all should know I live on the highest floor and alone. I’m extremely particular and ocd about my safety (for obvious reasons). I ALWAYS lock the door, and remember distinctly that I did that morning because I ran into a neighbor on the way out and being paranoid, locked it immediately.
When I got home, to find my home had been ransacked, I called the police and I called the leasing office. The manager stated, «your key was checked out last week for fire inspection.“Then she follows with,» We’re all human, and make mistakes, you might have left it unlocked.” ?? ! Without giving me any assurance I should feel safe living here or offering to help with the investigation.
No one I wouldn’t trust my life with, had access to my key except, the complex. And someone came in with the key.
Do not trust them.
