The Crest at Elm Tree Apartments

First, The Crest at Elm Tree in Mount Joy, Pa., gets 5 stars -- no question about it.

Our move to The Crest at Elm Tree came at an important time for us. In fact, there were two moves. The first brought an elderly parent and his youngest daughter, both of whom needed a change of scene and a mutually supportive home. We found that at The Crest and are grateful for that.

When the time came for us to become more involved with their lives from day to day, we were able to make the very easy and... wise decision to move to The Crest at Elm Tree. In fact, we moved into the neighboring building so we could walk back and forth as needed -- to help with medical appointments, shopping, household chores, watching Penn State football, and just enjoying time together (and lots of good meals).

Over the course of nearly six-and-a-half years, our experiences at The Crest at Elm Tree and with all of the on-site personnel were as you would expect them to be at a first-rate community: professional, prompt and personable. We found the team at The Crest at Elm Tree to be welcoming, friendly and understanding. All of that combined to make our stay at The Crest special and memorable. We can't thank The Crest team enough for that.

We wholeheartedly recommend The Crest at Elm Tree. Should the time come that we and our little dog are lucky enough to return to Mount Joy, we will certainly find our way home to The Crest at Elm Tree.

I moved in April 1st from a private rental where I did everything myself. I LOVE living here because you are truly taken care of!
I had my washer machine break down and a new one was delivered the next day. The blind in my dining area came apart from the top and they repaired it the same day. I asked for the code on my garage to be changed and it was completed within the hour. They are on top of maintenance game! The neighbors are more mature so there is no loud partying. The amenities are... sufficient not the latest and greatest but still very nice. The pool is great. I have small children and there are so many parks nearby and fun stuff to do. I love the walking paths and accessibility to EVERYTHING!
A few down sides are I can hear my neighbors use the bathroom in the middle of the night so I am sure they can here me! The paint shows every finger print in the house and I can see the dry wall seams in the living room.
Overall though this has been the happiest place I have ever lived and it truly fits my lifestyle! Read More

I've lived in a few apartments and my expectations are that the basic needs are met. The Crest at Elm Tree was and is way above that because of a number of items. It started with meeting me Sunday, to see a sample unit. Then the communication during the application process was excellent. And finally, when I moved in, the apartment readiness and cleanliness was way above my expectations. To include giving me touch up paint to clean up my move in marks. The property itself is pleasant, clean... , and quiet, with extras like a pool and gym. The location gives me easy access to highways and all conveniences in Mt. Joy and area. Read More
