Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

I've lived at Emerald Ridge for the last two years and have nothing but amazing things to say about the complex and staff. The staff specifically have never fallen short of going above and beyond for anything I've ever needed. Very friendly, responsive, and I've always felt they actually cared to make my living experience nothing but the best during my time at Emerald Ridge. The complex its self is located is directly across the street from Mercer Slough Park which is an absolutely lovely trail. & surrounded by beautiful trees and wooded area that makes it seem a bit secluded, which I love. Location is perfect as your about 5 minutes from downtown and both highways you may need to get anywhere. The apartments units are very well done as far as remodeling and up-keeping are concerned. Very practical and cozy! All of my neighbors are super friendly and always looked out when I needed it. Overall, this place was a great place for me and I'm sad to leave due to a relocation. Highly recommend!

Great service. My friend has been living here for 6 month and after that I decided to move here myself, because it is a pretty cool apartment, with all the basic needs and location is amazing as well. I do a lot of cycling, and there is nice trail down the road. I really like the service here, thanks to Heather and Mark, they answered to all my questions and provided a 5 star service! Cheers!
