The complex charged me over 350.00 of my deposit, stating that the carpet was dirty when we never walked our shoes through the apt. I called and they said they shine a blue light which showed dirty. Said it was probably from our dog. I said we dont own a dog. My husband said they just ripped you off, case closed. We know for a fact when we left, the apt. was spotless, the apt. cleaner than we moved in. This is my first time ever writing a bad review.

Property Manager at Sun Prairie/Vista Court Apartments responded to this review
We are sorry to see that your experience with our community has fallen short of the five-star standard that we strive for. We try our best to prepare residents for potential fees upon moving out. That being said, additional charges are dependent upon... the condition of the items in your home. If you feel as though you were unfairly charged, please give us a call to further discuss our evaluation.

Great Experience Overall
I’ve been here 2 years. The location here is great. You’re literally within 10-15 min of everything may need: schools, a hospital, the mall, Costco, Target, Walmart, Hy-Vee, I-80, and I-235. My neighbors are super quiet, our package room is amazing, it’s dog friendly, maintenance is decent, and the staff here are nice
My only major complaint is that the laundry rooms aren’t always 100% in too shape. Often times at least one dryer is broken. When you’re sharing a tiny laundry room with 15 or so... units, it can become a battle to get your laundry done. My other complaint is that the hallways can smell like pot. I don’t care if people do it in their free time. Have at. But others shouldn’t have to smell it and allegedly you’re banned from doing so according to the lease I signed.
Overall, give this place a think over. If nothing else. The specials are usually decent. My a few years ago was a $400 Visa card. One year I got a free months of rent for signing a 12 month lease.

Wouldn’t recommend
They say cable and internet is free it’s not they put it in your rent!! Once you sign the lease they become rude, disrespectful and very unkind!! Be careful when you shower, it goes back and forth freezing cold to burning your skin! The water always smells so bad like rotted eggs and sewage! They’re money hungry they will charge you for every little thing! The cops are here a lot there has been violence outside not a safe place! The hallways always smell!

Good value nice ameneties
I've lived here about a year. When you factor in the free cable and internet the price here is pretty good for what you get compared to other places. There were definitely nicer apartments that I looked at so I am speaking from a value perspective. Only bill I pay is electric which is around $15-20 most of the year and was $30-40 in the hot summer months. I'm recently divorced and have elementary aged kids and they love the multiple pools and playgrounds and trying to catch frogs and stuff at... the lake (you arent allowed to fish but I occasionally see people doing it). Cable is a basic 50ish or so major channels but you can pay for upgrades, dvr, premium channels etc. you can see their stuff at visionsystems.tv. Internet is really good and each unit gets its own private wifi router. Furnishing and kitchen appliances are bit dated but ok. Garages you can rent are spacious. I live on the top floor and on really cold days it wouldnt get any warmer than the low 60s and can get kinda hot in the summer in the back bedrooms. Noise is ok, you can't hear neighbors unless they are really loud but you can hear people talking in the halls. Haven't had any significant pest issues.

Do not expect your Security Deposit Return
This Apt is fine to live. Stinks of food the whole apt as you walk in. The only reason why I rented this apt was because my work was like less than 5 mins and great location to live too but do not expect your Security Deposit return. I left the apt cleaner than when I moved in but they charged me more than $200 for that. I called them to request if there could adjust the fees a bit but denied mentioning the carpets were not clean, the oven was dirty and the dish washer was not clean. Just an... honest opinion. Sorry did not want to write all of these.
