Off-Campus Student Services

Students were asked - what is the most important thing to know about this rental company?

1. Worth way less than what they make you pay for, but still probably one of the better deals you'll find in Boone. Sigh. (College Place) January 2024
2. This apartment does not have access to an Appalcart and it is not worth the $775 they're wanting for rent next year. (Howard's Creek) January 2024
3. For the cost, it is not too good. The electricity bill is always somehow insanely high, so beware. (Faculty Street) January 2024
4. Not sealed very well so you're forced to make friends with countless stinkbugs, and the kitchen island is unusable because it's so tall. (Pine Street Apartments) January 2024
5. Outdated and run down a little bit. No AC or guest parking but it is not bad for the price and location. (Brown Crossing Apartments) January 2024
6. No AC or appalcart stop nearby. Extremely expensive for the quality of the apartment. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
7. There is no Appalcart station within walking distance, so you have to drive to campus.
8. Its decently close to campus with bus pickup right outside the complex. The apartment itself is not in the best condition, no amenities. (location not specified) January 2024
9. Things will break, but they will fix them. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
10. The location is in walking distance to campus, but the price is too expensive for the condition of the apartment. (Windy Hill Apartments) January 2024
11. Decent apartment, pretty small, no storage, no amenities. Right on the Greenway and next to Leon Levine bus stop. Nice property management. (Mossy Creek Apartments) January 2024
12. No air conditioning. It somehow got up to 82 degrees inside over the summer. Overall, not great, [but] not terrible. (location not specified) January 2024
13. Skunk smell outside. Rust on bathroom ceiling. Mold in the cabinets. No AC. Will tow visitors. (Brown Heights) January 2024
14. They're extremely inconsistent, the owner is rude, and they're deceptive about the state/quality of the home prior to move-in. No tours. (house) January 2024
15. One room significantly smaller than other, walls are very thin. Hasn't been an issue for me, but it is definitely something to consider. (Brown Crossing Apartments) January 2024
16. This apartment complex is rough around the edges but has good people. (Greenbriar Apartments) January 2024
17. Landlords/rental employees are ... hard to work with. Rent is outrageously high for what you are getting. (Horn Apartments) January 2024
18. Kensington Meadows is a very clean and nice place to live, with repair response times, and free parking as its biggest selling points. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
19. No AC and bad heating. I had to buy and install my own AC units. It has baseboard heaters, which severely limit room layouts. (Bramblewood) January 2024
20. Good property [and] used to be a good deal, but price increasing way too much without any improvement to the property. (Cherokee Duplex) January 2024
21. The cost of this apartment used to be only $450 a month per person in 2022; in 2024, its going to be over $800 per person. (Brown Heights) January 2024
22. It is extremely expensive for what you're getting. When I moved in it was very messy/dirty. Came with a multitude of different issues. (Appletree Apartments) January 2024
23. Know what you are signing up for. The thing that makes it good is the location, otherwise, it's terrible. It's not convenient living. (Pinewoods) January 2024
24. Its pricey, but its the best place Ive lived while in Boone. Not super spacious, but it makes up for it with how close it is to campus. (Campus Pointe Apartments) January 2024
25. Very overpriced for the location and lack of amenities and utilities. The kitchen and living room has been redone but the rest has not been. (Mossy Creek Apartments) January 2024
26. You dont have air conditioning and arent allowed to use a window unit. There is communal laundry but smells horrible. Not enough machines. (Brown Crossing) January 2024
27. No air conditioning but high enough on a hill that it isnt usually a big issue. Great if you want to live in a less busy place but have neighbors. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
28. Be sure you are prepared for no laundry appliances and washing dishes by hand. While living alone is nice, cost is a bit much for this lack [of amenities]. (Meadowview) January 2024
29. We have mold in the bathroom, windows, and in the walls. Painted over hair. No salt for parking lot. Porch spiders. Bugs. Cheaper rent though. (Bramblewood I) January 2024
30. Kensington Meadows is on top of a hill. Be aware that it is a steep drive up and down and can be dangerous with winter weather. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
31. Every complex is too expensive. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
32. Building is a little outdated and layout is kind of strange. Does not include air conditioning and can get very hot due to no windows. (Covington Place) January 2024
33. Far from campus and not what most would consider student housing. (Randall House) January 2024
34. Landlord doesnt take care of parking lot, and the maintenance crews WILL come in even if you are not there and have specified for them not to. (Stone Creek Apartments) January 2024
35. Overpriced... (Brown Crossing) January 2024
36. Units are relatively small, and the cost doesnt reflect the actual quality of the unit, in a good location though. (Laurel Place Apartments) January 2024
37. There is no air conditioning. This place only has one window, and there is no washer or dryer in the unit. Overhead lights are florescent. (Covington Place) January 2024
38. Way overpriced for what you get. The apartment is not updated, and the rental companys maintenance men are unprofessional. (College Place Condominiums) January 2024
39. These units are a little dated but they are cozy! I think the price could be lowered, but that is everywhere, I believe. I would recommend!! (Stone Creek Apartments) January 2024
40. Theres a lot of extra fees that they dont tell you about when signing up. A lot of times you will just be billed for things [with] no explanation. (house) January 2024
41. I enjoy living with Holton Mountain Rentals; however, my current propertys rent is way higher than it is worth. (location not specified) January 2024
42. It's very expensive for not a lot of space. Given it's a motel style, it's a little sketchy. (Mossy Creek Apartments) January 2024
43. Upstairs neighbors are terrible. Also they don't salt the parking lot. And no A/C. Also they will take your dormats. (Mossy Creek Apartments) January 2024
44. Overcharging for dated and minimally maintained property. Proximity to WalMart can bring unwarranted and sometimes dangerous visitors. (College Place Condominiums) January 2024
45. The Appalcart stop nearby is down the very long road, so is less convenient in bad weather, and the parking lots ice over fast. (Kensington Meadows) January 2024
46. The rent goes up an insane amount at this place, for not a lot. They are charging me $1000 for no ameneties and no AC. (location not specified) January 2024
47. WATCH MAINTENANCE charges & make sure they are not double charging -- happened to me. Decent, old apartments. (Horn in the West Apartments) 2023
48. They arent very fast with repairs & do not tell you when they're coming. The staff seems to treat you more like children then paying adults. (Campus North) 2023
