Forest Woods

I am so glad to call Forest Woods Apartments my home! This is my first apartment since I started living solo, and I couldn't have chosen a better place. The atmosphere here is warm and welcoming, making it the perfect transition for someone new to independent living.

The staff is incredibly nice and helpful, especially Jamielou, who is always ready to assist with any questions or concerns I have. They truly go above and beyond to ensure that residents feel comfortable and valued. The amenities... are fantastic, and the community is peaceful and well-maintained.

Living here has been a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend Forest Woods Apartments to anyone looking for a great place to call home!

I recently moved out because the quality in Forest Woods went downhill quickly. It used to be a nice place to live. Quiet. Clean. And it felt like we were part of a higher-end apartment. Mid 2024, about half a dozen families of spanish decent moved in, and that is when it went downhill.
Trash, cigarette butts, beer cans, bottles, and empty cases started showing up around the complex in a very high rate. Their kids would scream and run up and down the hallways of every building. They'd pull in... at all hours of the night and blast music super loud, honking their horns to get each other's attention. Then they'd fill up the entire parking lot full of space having friends over, blasting music while they all stood outside drinking.
By the time I left, the complex smelled like weed and beer daily.
It used to be a nice complex, but I'm happy I'm gone now. It went downhill fast. Lee mas

It’s insane how smooth and efficient the process for maintenance is at Forest Woods. I’ve had a handful of requests for various things to be “fine tuned” in my unit and it’s so easy and quickly accomplished EVERY TIME. My most recent request was to fix the shower dial which I thought would take some time. Nope! They sent a really nice guy named Dustin who was in and out in like less than ten minutes! Thank you to the Forest Woods team for their excellent support to tenant needs.

My partner and I found Forest woods while looking for apartments close to Castlewood State Park. We were drawn in immediately by the gardens and proximity to outdoor activities.

We quickly realized how friendly the staff is too. We have lived here for the better part of a year and have always had maintenance requests fulfilled quickly (usually same day) and the grounds are taken care of well.

At Forest we didn’t like the idea of carpet, but our dogs love it and since we rarely hear our... neighbors I imagine the carpet helps with sound proofing!

After renting many privately owned houses and managed apartments, Forest woods really combines the best of both worlds! As long as we live in Saint Louis this is our home. Lee mas

I loved living here for my 6 1/2 years! My boyfriend and I bought a home, otherwise I would still be here. It had everything I needed. I loved having in unit laundry and I could go on and on about my kitchen. The staff was always friendly and helpful and I have no complaints. If the occasion ever arose I would move back in a heartbeat.
