I've lived at The Lakes for nearly three years and love my time living here. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind and maintenance issues are responded to and fixed very quickly. The staff has gone out of their way many times to assist me if I ever had an issue. I don't think I'll find another complex that I've enjoyed this much. Definitely recommend The Lakes to anyone who is looking for an apartment in Tulsa!

I've been at the Lakes going on 9 years. The management will help with what they can. Our maintenance crew is awesome here as well. Jacob replaced my faucet and an fixed my outlet. Jacob and crew are the best.
