I lived in Estes Park 16 years ago. Its nice to read the reviews and see its still terrible and disgusting. The funny part is I was paying $525 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment. If I read the website correctly they are wanting 7-9 hundred for a one bedroom. Man I hate it for yall.

ESTES PARK APARTMENTS IS A GREAT PLACE FOR SINGLES, COUPLES AND FAMILIES, THE GROUNDS ARE BEAUTIFULLY KEPT AND THE RENOVATED APARTMENTS ARE GORGEOUS. THE LOCATION OF THE APARTMENT COMPLEX CAN NOT BE BEATEN. IT IS NEAR SHOPPING, MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND EXCELLENT SCHOOLS. THE RENTAL COST IS ALSO UNBELIEVABLE FOR ALL YOU GET. THE MAINTENANCE CREW IS TIMELY, EFFICIENT AND COURTEOUS. THE OFFICE STAFF IS AWESOME. THEY ARE KIND, PERSONABLE, AND MOST OF ALL PATIENT. THEY HAVE TO BE TO PUT UP WITH ME !!! I HAVE LIVED HERE FOR ONE YEAR AND HAVE SIGNED A NEW LEASE TO CONTINUE MY RESIDENCE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ESTES PARK APARTMENT, IT IS A TERRIFIC PLACE TO CALL HOME.

Functional but pretty ghetto looking. Rents are cheapest for singles and students. There's a reason it's stuck in the boonies next to a railroad track! Nice pool but it's totally in the shade. Best place to get a tan? ~ The, Str8 as a Stick, half mile long, bumpy, drag strip parking lot!

Just moved in recently and so far so good. My expectations were not great considering the other reviews, but with the renovations (new carpet, new appliances, a new window in the living room) and the size of the 2 bedroom place for the price, it is pretty great. There were some problems with the place, but the office lady sent over maintenance right away to fix most of the biggest issues. Considering the price and the age of the apartments, it is great for students or anyone on a budget. The environment is fairly quiet, which is nice. Negatives: parts of the outside can be dirty, there are too many smokers that smoke outside of their apartment doors and the smell and smoke lingers and stinks, I wish they replaces all the windows because some of them are really old, and the occasional roach (to be expected given the area). All told: a good place for the size and price.

Quiet and safe place to live, where the beautiful Wilson park is right across the street. Although the apartment itself is not in the best condition, but the management staff & leasing office ladies are very friendly and helpful. I reported some issues with my new apartment in the morning and one of the staff came by that afternoon and fixed most of problems. I was a bit concerned and didn't have the high expectation about this apartment after reading all the negative reviews on google, but it is far better than I thought.

Though the apartments themselves aren't the most premium, the people are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Anyone who visits this area will be struck by the fact that everyone hangs out on their stoops in the evenings. The accommodations are very cheap and there is a bus which will take your anywhere you need to go in Chapel Hill and Durham.

Safe, but definitely poorly managed. Maintenance "cleans" apartments between renters by painting over grime. Neighbors are loud and weirdly nosey (I've seen people peering in my window more than once -- who does that?) It's hard to get in contact with the leasing office (they're always out to lunch), or know your status when it comes to moving in or out. When I moved in, the mailbox key didn't even match the number they told me it would, and I had to use trial & error to find my actual mailbox because the leasing office is THAT out of touch. I moved to a smaller, more expensive place because living here wasn't worth it. I'm a clean person but there were constantly roaches - as in I've had to abandon furniture (a clean, dry nightstand kept in my bedroom) due to roach infestation. My roof leaked waste water into my home at least 5 times. My washer and dryer weren't properly set up upon move in, leading to a series of floods in my apartment. If you're looking for a Chapel Hill home, I've lived in 4 complexes so far. This is the one I'd least recommend. I would need to be paid to live here again. Listen to the bad reviews.

This is the worst place ever, bed bugs, mice and roaches with a landlord that doesn't care about her tenants .. Congratulations Natasha you just made Estes park apartment the worst place in Carrboro. If you see this place please run

I had the worst possible experience at Estes Park. Not only did we receive bed bugs and have our mattress/box spring ruined, but it was also nearly impossible to communicate with the management staff. The manager, Natasha Johnson, walked out on me during every conversation we had regarding bed bugs and deductions from the security deposit for "mattress removal," though I followed the advice of the health department. She threatened to call the police and had me escorted out by her security guard. If having a security guard for your landlord isn't enough of a red flag, please let this review steer you away from Estes Park. You'll save yourself more money living in a place managed by decent people who actually care about their tenants.

I live in New York. But i come down to visit my mom for the summers who lives here in Estes Park. In 2011 it was horrible. People where mean and nasty and a lot of drug dealers. But now in 2016 it is a lot better! Apts are getting renovated like my moms. The managers are nice can be annoying though. A lot of nice neighbors and everything. But here are the downfalls. The pool is closed more than opened. They are always fixing thr pool and adding chemicals and stuff like chlorine. The rent is higher now. And every August they have an Annual Night Out. With really good food, (bbq) soda and games. It is really fun. But that was actually a good part. So everyone these apts arent that bad but they can be a little bit better

my boyfriend lives in there and we hate it. the manager over everyone is rude! she name is natallia or something. they don't take care of people that living in there. they should get all fired but starting at natallia first maybe things get better if she is gone.

The negative reviews are so true! The property manager Natasha acts like she is a princess and everyone must kneel to her. She is extremely rude except when her superior is there, then she will bend over backwards for you. She should be secret shopped by perspective tenants. They should spend considerable time around while she is with other tenants already living there. Once they see how incredibly rude she is they can report it. I hope her manager reads this. Also when we lived there, there was mice, roaches, ect. and they said it was the tenants fault, but the bug man said they only pay to have the drawers in the kitchen and bath done. He said they should pay him to do the whole apartment, each one. They had stopped taking section 8 and had raised rent when I left so there is absolutely no reason for anyone anywhere to live here. The bills are out of control because there are gaps throughout the house letting out your electric heat/air. The same with the water bill. I had never paid so much for water!!!!! I ended up paying far, far more than what I moved there for, which was because I thought I could save! The maintenance crew to me was very nice and helpful, but had little to work with since no money was being put into renovations, only to patch things up. As I walked my dog around the property, parts of the sidewalk were torn up, a walking hazard to elderly people, the parking lot was also the same in places. I think the place should be condemned and burned to the ground! When I complained of the mice and roaches, the property manager said it was from tenants and that no one else but me was complaining, however EVERYONE I talked to said the same thing, they had complained with no results! They LOVE to charge you too if you accidentally leave something on your fridge when they come to "spray" (water I think) for bugs, they will send you a bill for $50.00. Yet no money goes into renovating the apartments, only the main office. One day I had enough when I went in to complain, Natasha was bragging about how she had a man wrapped around her finger to the other ladies, they were on their cells texting, and I had to wait for them to finish! GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN!!!!!!

Not the most visually appealing apartment community, but it is very affordable and in a great location. Parking is always available in front of my unit which is always nice, but be aware that they do tow visitors if they do not have a visitor parking pass. The staff is friendly, especially the younger woman who works in the leasing office. Maintenance can be iffy, but usually gets the job done in time - be patient.

Estes Park can be hard to find if you don't know how to get there. However, once you know where it is then it's not a problem. Some of the buildings look a little old, but the interiors are newly renovated and look pretty modern. I love that the rent is really cheap but the interior of my apartment looks just as nice as those of my friends, who pay significantly more for their apartments. The amenities aren't fantastic but as a student at UNC I use the gym at school anyways. Overall I recommend this location to anyone looking for something on the cheaper end, but will get a great apartment nonetheless.

Worst property manager I have ever dealt with, she isn't friendly at all, she is always checking her cell phone while talking to the costumers. She is barely at the office, it seems that she hates her job so much that she leaves as early as possible every day. The day I was supposed to move in, I found an used condom on the living room carpet and an open beer in the kitchen. I decided not to move there because of that but the manager charged me anyways for deposit fee. I am still waiting to see if I recover my $. GSC main office doesn't reply either. It is very sad that there is people like her and her maintenance team in such a beautiful and kind place such as Carrboro.
