The Gardens on Timberlake Apartamentos

This apartment complex has been great. My apartment is a bit small but I love the big closet, it’s been bug free, clean community, friendly neighbors, nice set up for the mail in the gazebo. It also is quiet so if your a college student this is a great plus!

Pros
- Very responsive, attentive, and professional management team. I put in a maintenance request and it was taken care of the next day. They are very communicative with residents.
- Great amenities that are cleaned and maintained on a DAILY and WEEKLY basis!
- My building (700) and one other building (800) has an elevator that makes moving and carrying heavy items very very easy!
- Very great location as it is right off a main road and behind a grocery store (walking distance).
- The... typical resident here is a hard-working, friendly, and mindful adult (i.e. no crazy partying or drama).
- No issues with appliances or showers, hot water is HOT and cold water is COLD.

CONS (why I'm not giving 5 stars)
- If you are easily irked and bothered by noisy neighbors and just noise in general, please consider this point. It is extremely easy to hear the neighbors living above you since there is LITERALLY no insulation between your ceilings and their floors. Be prepared to hear ALL footsteps, slamming of cabinets, any music (and tv), arguing, laundry, water pipes from the upstairs showers (basically everything) at all hours of the day and night. Take my word for it when I say I can hear everything from above me and it rattles the walls.
- Despite my efforts to politely speak to the people above me about the noise level, they have decided to then be inconsiderate and purposefully stomp, run, make their dog bark and run all over the floors when I've knocked on the ceilings for them to quiet down.
- I've talked to management about the situation and they tried to do their part but unfortunately nothing can really be done and no one can force someone to live and behave in a considerate way. So be prepared to hear toilets flushing and any and all footsteps from above you. Every singly night I've had to sleep with earplugs in.
- My best advice would be to either prepare to hear a lot of noise from upstairs neighbors of wait until a third floor unit opens up.
- IF YOU ARE ON THE THIRD FLOOR, please be very considerate of the noise you make. You won't know just how easy it is to hear because you don't have anyone living above you. It doesn't hurt to put rugs down and/or wear house shoes to soften the effects of your footsteps. Just do what you can for the people around you.
- The private gate has been permanently open (i.e. broken) the entire year I've been living here. Management has kept us in the loop about getting it repaired so it's just a long process. Lee mas

The Gardens of Timberlake is a very nice place to live. It is quiet and safe. I enjoy the Clubhouse and the pool. I feel very happy and satisfied here.

the WORST place you could live. Although the gardens looks nice on the outside, the management and the policies make this place an awful community to live in. The property manager is terrible at her job, doesn’t care about the residents, and only cares about how the gardens can take more money from you. The parking policy is trash, and if you don’t want to pay $100 per car per apartment, you will get towed. They make new policies that you have no choice to follow, whether you were here before... the policy was made or not. There’s residents that pay to live here, having to pay an extra $250 because their car gets towed because of a new parking policy that NO residents like. The walls are paper thin, along with the floors. The appliances look nice, but don’t work well. There’s so many better places to live in Lynchburg that aren’t as problematic as this place. Lee mas
