Bridge at Monarch Bluffs Apartments

There were roaches when we moved in, we found out that other tenants had the same problem, and when we asked the office if they spay for roaches or insects when new tenants move in, the answer was “only by request.” You can never find parking because visitors take up most of it. It came under new management before we moved in, what we didn’t know is that our new apartment is RIGHT NEXT to the leasing office, and that office and area would be under construction for 6 months. So, almost every... morning at 7:00 am I get to hear power saws, tractor equipment (as I write this they’re using a tractor to pull up old grass), and men yelling. I’ve contacted the office several times, and they’ve done nothing about it. They just saw they’re ahead of schedule and that it’ll be finished soon. If you want to take your dog for a walk, there’s a 90% chance you’ll step in dog poop. Kids are constantly running and screaming in front of people’s doors. It’s a complete mess. Read More

Highly recommended, I moved here last month and thanks to McKinley(community specialist) my move was quick and easy. He's amazing, made me feel right at home. Its a gated community, friendly neighbors and the apartment it self is super nice . I couldn't be any happier.

I love how close to South Park Meadows we are located! And they just updated all of the security equipment so I feel really safe here, and knowing that it's gated and you need a code to access the complex is really relieving for me since I have a young child. The office staff is very friendly, and they have been helpful with every problem we have had (not many). The maintenance guys are all really nice too, and they make conversation with you while they're there instead of just being quite and... awkward. The dog park is pretty large so my dogs love to go play and interact with all of the other dogs!! I really recommend The Cottages because everything you need is within a 5 mile radius!! Read More

These are my opinions after living here for about a year and a half

Pros:
-very nice updated space
-Laundry in unit
-Gym where the machines actually all work and they supply water and towels
-Nice pool and grill area to hang out at
-Office Staff - so far everyone I have encountered has been very friendly, sometimes you have to keep on them about a problem for anything to get done though
-It generally feels very safe - they have had a couple of car break ins recently but I have personally never... experienced a problem

Cons:
-Parking - it is generally full at night, like 9 or 10, but you should be able to get a parking space if you get in earlier, there are also garages available
- Picking up after dogs - people don't do it. The apartments do provide bags and are always reminding people to do it in the newsletter, but it's still a problem
-Maintenance - maintenance is not a big problem but does leave me concerns. Most of the time they are there very quickly and can get what you need fixed. I had one occasion where it took a very very long time to get a repair. In addition to that I have had them come in for the same repair about once a month. It always gets fixed quickly, but it always breaks again.

Overall the cottages has been a nice space. It's very conveniently located next to Southpark Meadows which has everything you could need for clothing or groceries. It's also just down the street from an H.E.B. My time here has been pretty good. Sometimes I feel like I pay too much for what is offered, but honestly most apartments in the area are more expensive. I would say the the Cottages are a nice place to live and I haven't had many issues. Read More

Now being less than 5 mins away from South Park Meadows, it a great hideway apartments. Now it's awesome to live there esp living in the back part of the complex. It had great spacious rooms and even double car garages for a great price in Austin. They host a number of different the month to help you "get to know your neighbor". Along side that you also have pet friendly dog parks, and a great side pool and grill areas everywhere!
