The Villas at Dorsey Ridge Apartments

My experience touring Dorsey Ridge Apartments was extremely disappointing. The staff at the leasing office were unprofessional and difficult to interact with, which greatly influenced my decision not to consider living here. It appears that the management team hires staff who share a similar unprofessional attitude, leading to a consistently negative experience for prospective tenants. I would advise others to consider alternative properties.

Ok, so to begin with I have looked at soooo many apartments to find one that was spacious with reasonable pricing. And this is the best you can get in the Hanover/ Columbia area. The apartment itself is big, the kitchen is big, lots so storage, the bathrooms are big as well, so are the closets. The wood floors are nice and so is the fire place. The laundry room is super spacious and the laundry appliances are great as well. Lots of great natural lighting thanks to window s. Also the desk area is... an amazing add to the apartment as well, It has a build in keyboard holder and storage on the top. As far as Parking, I’ve never had an issue, I have come home around 1 am and I’ve always been able to find parking. The other best thing about this apartment is the location. This is one of the best locations to be in. You have the mall Infront. And your near the highway. You honestly won’t find a better apartment at this price. The staff are all nice as well. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there are a few things I don’t like, first being that the fridge and freezer are kinda small, I have a family of 3 and it’s very difficult getting food to fit. Secondly, unfortunately due to being next to the highway you hear traffic every hour of the day and it can get super annoying. But overall I would definitely recommend this place Read More

My wife and I moved to the Hanover area and checked our several apartment complexes, but for some reason we kept coming back to Dorsey Ridge. Thank God we did! The facilities, staff and amenities were top notch! Anytime there was an issue on the property, they were handled immediately. Angela and Joey were always very pleasant and personable. When we moved out there wasn't any hassle and we received our full deposit. I would highly recommend Dorsey Ridge! Great job!

Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The apartments are poorly constructed, the mail and gate systems aren't thought out or effective and only inconvenience the residents. Worst value I've ever gotten from an apartment.

We were drawn to this place initially due to the larger floor plans and natural light in some of the townhome-style units. The clubhouse facilities and swimming pools are modern and fairly nice. The location seemed convenient, with nearby shopping and dining options in the Arundel Mills area.

However, after moving in and staying here, seeing a whole lot of terrible about these apartments. The leasing experience was far from ideal, with long turnaround times, constant follow-up needed, and... paperwork getting missed out. The move-in experience was decidedly poor. It became clear that very little attention is given to making units move-in ready. The unit was dirty in parts, some doors were jammed, carpet peeling, batteries in security alarms were discharged, A/C had issues. This may have been acceptable had the issues been quickly resolved. However, maintenance requests are not attended to, despite being open for weeks. There's frequent police activity due to evictions, indicating that they don't do a good job of screening tenants.

Overall, despite paying high rent, not a place that'll make you feel safe or comfortable, especially if you're staying with family. There are many other family-friendly options in the area. Give this community a hard pass. Read More
