Brookside Commons is anything but “common”. I find my apartment HOME to be surrounded by beautiful and well maintained grounds, managed by an exceptionally professional and personable staff, and find my neighbors to be friendly and respectful of each other and the property. I feel safe and well taken care of by the “above and beyond” property management. Truly a five star community.

Living at Brookside Commons has been great the past 16 months. The apartment complex is always super clean, even since the first day I moved in. Anything that I’ve needed fixing whether it was a broken door, toilet or microwave, it would be fixed very quickly. The maintenance team is awesome. Chloe & Emily have both been super helpful with any questions/concerns I needed answered, and they have always been super kind anytime I walk through the door.
