So far I really like this place. It's spacious with a nice layout, and you can't beat the price you get for the location. Theo from the office was very helpful getting me set up and took care of the repairs my apartment needed prior to my move-in. I haven't seen any pests in my unit yet, and my neighbors are all friendly. The unit has a nice view of the pool, and the area is very quiet. Walls are a little thin, but I mostly just hear creaking footsteps every once in a while. I've biked throughout the entire complex, and I can definitely see how someone's experience could vary from unit to unit. The complex is older and each unit has developed its share of good and bad quirks over time - some more than others. Some of the units back right up to the bayou; which happens to look a lot like a jungle. With that in mind, I can see how some units might have some pretty monster pest troubles especially if you tend to leave food around. I think it's important to keep in mind the location of the individual unit when considering Woodlake on the Bayou, and also manage your expectations. Is the unit on the first floor? (easier for bugs to get in) Is the area around it well-drained? (pooling water attracts bugs) Does it back right up to the bayou? (this should be obvious) Are the neighboring porches/front walkways littered with junk and dog poop or do they have some nice plants? Ask yourself these questions! Also, require that any maintenance issues seen upon your tour of the unit be addressed prior to move-in. Follow up a week before to make sure they've been taken care of. There are hundreds of people on this property, so don't assume it will just get done. Miscommunications happen. Just be firm.

I met with Kelly S. today and she is awesome! Very friendly and professional. She had no issue walking me to the unit in 100° heat and the unit was a little ways from the leasing office. She also told me of all the amenities offered at the complex. It's a very serene and clean complex. She even picked up a few discarded items on our walk back to the office, which shows how much she cares about the community and it's presentation. I highly recommend this townhome and apartment complex.
