This has been a great living experience! Maintenance is quick to respond, and the office staff is friendly and helpful. The door-side trash pick up is a convenience that I have really come to enjoy. - From a verified resident on ApartmentRatings
We have lived here for about a year and a half now, so I will try to make this review as comprehensive as possible for those looking for an apartment. Overall, this community is great. The design and layout of the apartments is well-thought out and works well. The community is gated and we have never felt unsafe living here. Landscaping is well done and has lots of nice trees, flowers, and other foliage around.
The staff here, especially the manager, Brittany, are awesome. I would like to provide two examples for some more context. The thermostats that come with most apartments are of the older style mechanical type, meaning you sometimes have to "guess" what temperature your system is set to. I inquired with Brittany about the possibility of a digital thermostat in the hopes of having more precise temperature control and thus saving some money on our power bill, fully expecting to be shut down. However, she sent me a prompt reply telling me they would replace it for us free of charge, and that she had put a work order in to do it. Not only that, it was replaced within a week, which was pleasantly surprising given how low priority of an issue it was.
Another big compliment towards the management was in the form of some neighbors who moved in next door to us a while back. Previously, there was an older lady who lived there and was the best neighbor ever. These people, on the other hand, were not. Anyways, they would spend a lot of their time "hotboxing" one of the bathrooms with the smell of marijuana, which then poured into our bathroom that adjoined theirs. It was obviously undesirable and made our quality of life very unpleasant. Brittany quickly responded to my complaint and would contact me after each subsequent complaint, keeping me informed of what she was doing to help make our lives at home more comfortable. She eventually got them to move away which was probably the greatest day of this year for us.
The property maintenance staff are very professional, friendly, and prompt. Tre Meadows, the maintenance manager, is especially skilled in all things maintenance-related, and is also very pleasant to deal with.
One small critique I have of this community is that I wish they would install some sort of speed bumps. Some people drive fairly erratically and far too fast for an apartment community with narrow roadways and many children and pets living here.
Overall, The Fairways at Jennings Mill is one of your best choices in Athens, especially if you do not want to live with a bunch of college undergraduates, or in a dangerous area with sketchy people. The community is a good mix of younger, working professionals, family, and elderly individuals - many of whom are good people and don't seem to cause too many problems. The staff in the Leasing Office are very friendly and eager to help, Brittany, the manager, does a great job managing the community, and is committed to ensuring that law-abiding citizens are comfortable and happy living here. We thoroughly enjoy living here and we hope to stay here for as long as we can.

My son just moved in to this complex and has had a few minor maintenance issues and one I would call semi-major that was late at night. The maintenance guy came right away and fixed every issue! He was very kind and courteous! Everyone at the complex has been super nice and the complex itself is nice and has great amenities!

The apartment complex is in a very peaceful environment, surrounded by tall trees. The rustic details like stone and wood add to the charm. The apartments have a creative layout, with more space than expected.

I moved in my apartment two weeks ago and it is very nice and quiet. I just want to thank Kayla Alexander for helping me and going the extra mile to get me into this apartment. It is a blessing to know that there are still people who love their jobs and its about helping people with past issues work through those issues. Thanks again Kayla you have been a blessing to me, keep up the good work.

So first off I wanna say this whole complex including the staff is amazing ! I love my apartment here as I have had horrible places I've stayed before. Not only is maintenance super fast and reliable but the office staff is very fast at getting back to you. Every apartment community has their flaws but honestly that's what makes this a great community because they work hard to make sure everything is to make you happy. If you are considering a apartment in athens this is place to go! Super quiet and friendly neighbors and staff.
I loved living here! I was a resident from 2014-2017. I only moved because I took a job on the other side of the state. The complex was so wonderful! Well maintained, no bug issues, very quiet and reasonably priced. I never had an issue here that wasn't quickly resolved (and all issues were minor in nature). I've lived in a lot of complexes and I can honestly say this was the best by far. Highly recommended!
I've lived here a little under a year, and honestly can't come up with a single complaint. It's so nice to live in a complex that's both mature in landscaping and residents. In my building, I never hear anything from other apartments. Office staff and maintenance staff have been flat out great. As a bonus, the staff hosts periodic events at the clubhouse.
