Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

One question: Who’s the go to girl? One Answer: CHRISTAL! She has been so very helpful in the application process, helping me apply as a first time renter and keeping me in the loop about every aspect of what needs to be done in the process. She had gone above and beyond at letting me and my partner know about pricing changes, Specials, and gone out of her way to help us manage the application process with our busy lives. She has been a total life saver and really makes the Gilmer feel like home

We lived there for 2 years and moved because we purchased a home. There was some staff changes during our stay. My neighbors were quiet and pleasant. We met Leisa that works in the office closer to our move out time but she was super helpful, always friendly and kind. Always willing to assist. Matt completed our service repairs in a timely matter and always professional. The pool was closed more than I would have liked but then again we didn’t always make the time to get there when it was open. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
