What Residents Say

Hidden Meadow offers cheap rent and a responsive manager, but residents split sharply on whether the trade-offs are worth it. Tenants report recurring pest problems even in clean units, inconsistent noise enforcement, unpaved streets, and occasional mailbox theft. Long-term residents stay for affordability; new arrivals often discover the property suits temporary stays better than permanent homes.

  • quiet community (for some)
  • included internet and cable
Watch-outs
  • pest issues (bedbugs, roaches, ants)
  • no lease enforcement (noise)

Calypso Apartments

3.7(150)✓ Google-verified

Calypso earns strong reviews largely on the strength of manager Abigail, who reviewers credit with going well beyond standard service: flexible approvals, holiday access, unit upgrades, and genuine availability. Maintenance technician Dillon also gets named praise for quick response. The grounds stay clean and the pool well-maintained, with residents calling it safe and quiet. However, scattered one-star reviews flag serious issues: roach infestations despite ongoing pest charges, surprise line items on bills, an open parking lot vulnerable to break-ins, and management churn. The 54% five-star to 29% one/two-star split suggests a polarized experience, possibly tied to how individual tenants land with the office team or which repairs fall on them.

New management has won praise from recent arrivals for friendliness and responsiveness, with staff like Destiny, Vanessa, and Gabriella singled out for exceptional help during move-ins and ongoing support. However, older residents report years of unresolved infrastructure failures: hot water outages lasting months, water shutoffs, non-working A/C units, mold, and incomplete maintenance jobs that force tenants to wash dishes in bathroom sinks or heat water on stoves. These complaints span years and predate the current team. The $99 move-in special draws criticism as a bait-and-switch: reviewers describe paying $101 upfront for an application, facing rejection within minutes, and losing the fee with no recourse. Those approved still encounter sudden additional fees of $200 to $500. Long-time residents cite safety lapses, vehicle theft, bullet holes in buildings, and drug activity, though newer reviews suggest conditions are stabilizing under new ownership. The business faces a credibility gap between its amenity list (24-hour gym, pools) and actual availability.
