Lakeside at Campeche Apartments

As the previous reviewer stated, AVOID THESE APARTMENTS AND THE LEASING COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!! I moved to these apartments from out of state during the winter. Unbeknownst to me, there was a RECURRING WASP PROBLEM in my assigned apartment. Within TWO WEEKS of move-in, I notified the leasing office of this issue. They responded by sending maintenance to “rectify” the issue, but to no avail. They even sent out a professional animal/insect removal expert, but I wasn’t allowed to view the... findings/report. The expert did mention that if there is an opening that half a lengthwise pencil can fit into, a wasp can fit i to it. Corporate said I was able to terminate my lease, but would have to pay $3300 to do so, which is what I did, because the wasp problem never went away.

Again, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID these apartments at ALL costs, and if you do move here, consider yourself warned. They DO NOT care about tenants or their well-being; only your money. Much nicer places in Alvin, Webster, Bay Town, or League City.

PS: Management - Save the canned responses of fake concern, as it is little more than gilded rhetoric and damage control. How I was treated during my unfortunate stay speaks volumes. Read More

Untruthful management. Make sure you document every little thing during you stay here, especially moving in and moving out. TAKE PICTURES OF EVERYTHING. They will try to get any sort of extra money out of you when moving out and lie about the conditions of the apartment.

The staff is very professional. They always greet you with a smile. The ladies at the office are very helpful and go above and beyond to help their residents. I have never had any major issues. They always take care of my maintenance requests in a timely manner. They are also very pet friendly. I love taking my dog out for walks around the lake! I like that they have 24 hour maintenance and courtesy cops, making me feel really safe. I also love the 3 pools and can’t wait to try the new outdoor... gym! I highly recommend this place! They make you feel like family! Read More

I love these apartments. What I love most about them is the staff. They make living here feel like a getaway. Seriously every night I feel as if I'm staying in a 5 star hotel it is that amazing. Everyone is friendly including the maintenance men and grounds keepers. I don't ever want to move from here. My 7 month old baby (who doesn't go to anyone but a handful of people) always jumps out of my arms to get to the members of the staff. Living here you're part of a huge family.

The apartments are... renovated and up-to-date on style. There are renovations going on around the complex to ensure that all the apartments are safe and wonderful to live in. Whenever there is anything wrong the office is quick to notify you and fix it. Read More

My husband and I have lived at Lakeside at Campeche since June of 2015. When we initially moved it, we were satisfied with the unit we were in (1B/1B, plan 1B). Decent amount of space, parking isn't too bad in the FRONT of the complex, and the pool area was nice. The grounds are kept up to the level I'd expect for a low-to-mid-range apartment complex.

Things went downhill, VERY fast. The office staff has changed multiple times. The first two sets were incredibly rude and incompetent. The... current staff is friendly, however, they blow you off anytime there is an issue. They claim that they "can't find" any record of my past maintenance requests, the pet addendum we filled out, the vehicle information form that I gave them (twice), or the incident report from when our vehicle was broken into. When we resigned our lease the same employee told us that, although we should have a new lease written, due to my name change, she "didn't want to do anymore paperwork".

Some of the issues that we have are:

1. DUST. An excessive amount of dust layering every surface within an hour of dusting with a damp cloth. It is SO bad, that we are having horrible headaches and sinus congestion within minutes of entering the unit. The new office staff came to our apartment and basically said that it is a common issue in this region, and something we just have to get used to. We have lived in the area for years, at other complexes, and have never had this issue. It was a problem well before we had any pets.
2. There is water coming through the ceiling (we are 2nd floor), creating large water damage spots. We reported it MONTHS ago, and nothing has been done. The water marks have grown in size since then.
3. The wall by the window has water coming through whenever it rains- it looks like the the wall is about to fall through. We also reported that months ago, they had someone come look at it, including a contractor (who agreed it needed to be repaired), and still didn't do anything.
4. All of the caulking and surface paint in the bathtub is coming up
5. If you do not run your dishwasher every day (even empty), water and other things back up into the bottom, creating a TERRIBLE smell. It also happens whenever the disposable is used.

I would not recommend that ANYONE moved to lakeside at Campeche unless you want constant allergy attacks and headaches inside your own home, your car broken into, the staff to ignore you, and water leaking inside every singe time it rains. Read More
