Fennwoode Apartments

Living at Fennwoode is like staying at a cottage resort, except this is one holiday I never have to leave! The staff are incredibly friendly, proactive and so very kind - all my maintenance needs are addressed immediately and even before they become issues! The home itself is immaculately clean, very well maintained and safe. I feel supported and protected at every step. This is not my first renting experience, but is by FAR the best!

I was tempted to mark this as a 4 star instead of 5 to not seem biased. I'm always hesitant when I see only 5 star reviews on anything. That said Fenn-Woode deserved the 5. I lived there in a 2 bedroom apartment for 2.5 years, and had zero issues the whole way through.

The property is landscaped routinely, the pool is always clean, and it's an all around serene sight to see. Lots of trees, a fountain at the center, picnic tables, and grills with propane hooked up and ready.

The look of the... apartment interior was solid, with the only small negative being the kitchen. And even then it's just an aesthetic critique, not functionality (it's not the most modern cabinet/counter top combo).

Getting a hold of the maintenance folks is never a problem, and they're quick to fix any issues you may have. All of them are friendly, and most of them are conversational; one was nice enough to give me a ride up the hill to my car in his golf cart on my last day.

Occasionally the sauna will break down in the pool house (who can complain when you have one in the first place), and we were never able to get our intercom to buzz open the door, but we also never called them to fix it. Laundry was something like $1.60 per load, but it was all done through a re-loadable laundry card which is far better than fishing for quarters every week. I also never really ran into access problems despite there only being two washers and dryers for my building.

The estimates they will give you for average electricity bill are in my opinion generous. The units have central air (heat and AC) so keeping it temperate in summer or winter can get pricey on the electric bill.

The master bedroom is enormous, and the second bed was standard/fair. The living room was similarly large, and kitchen was moderately sized; a good amount of counter space, tons of cabinets, but not very wide so it gets cramped if two people are cooking.

Most important of all, the price just can't be beat. For a huge 2 bedroom 1.5 bath you're paying the same price as a tiny one bedroom in West Hartford. Plus you won't find anything cheaper that has a pool, sauna, and tennis court.

There is a Stop & Shop on the same road, a gym directly across the street, and Target/Best Buy/Trader Joes/Old Navy/Total Wine/West-farms Mall/anything else you'll need is a 3 minute drive away

Highly recommend the place; if I need an apartment in the area again I'd happily go back. Lee mas

This is the place to live if you want an excellent, quiet, well maintained apartment. Staff is extremely friendly and always helpful. Sam, Sean and Mary-Jean go above and beyond to make your experience at Fenn-Woode amazing. Highly recommend!!

I enjoyed living at Fenn-Woode. Everything was well maintained including common areas. Management was attentive and very professional. Neighbors were polite and considerate. I would still be living there if I didn't find a place to purchase.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our two years at Fenn-Woode. Everything about the apartment and the management was excellent and living there was the best rental experience we had, anywhere. We left only because we bought a house. Nearly two years later, I purchased an item online which the seller mistakenly shipped to my old (Fenn-Woode) address. Mary Jean showed up at my door, at my house, in a different town, to personally deliver the item to me.

Even years later, I'm still continuing... to be impressed. Thank you! Lee mas
