Foothills At Eaton Canyon

Never live here!!! I repeat never live here. This property is run by crooks. You will be charged an exuberant amount of money for rent and you will not receive your security deposit back. Horrible parking structure. Only one space for a 2 bedroom unit. One dumpster for the entire complex thats over 50 units! Pool is freezing cold, no central air. The air conditioning unit is from the late 70’s and doesn’t get cold. Worst 8 months of my life. Renter beware!

After living at The Foothills at Eaton Canyon for over 2 years, I can definitely say it is a wonderful place to stay. The one bedroom we rent has plenty of space for my boyfriend and I, as well as our dog. The apartment complex is dog friendly and in a great, family friendly area for walking.
Whenever we’ve had fixes needed (minimal things like a clogged pipe or a loose door handle) management was very responsive and resolved everything quickly.
I have no complaints and am looking forward to staying here for another year.

I currently live at The Foothills at Eaton Canyon, and I must say it has been an enjoyable stay. I’ve been here for almost three years, and I have never had a bad experience here. I recently transferred to another unit, and the deposit I got back from Starpoint was completely fair. I was in a two bedroom, but really didn’t need so much space; so I’m in a one bedroom now. I still have plenty of space, because these units are large.
Management is great, and always responsive to my needs. Anytime I need something done in my unit I’m responded to extremely fast, and the maintenance man usually is there that day. What really is great is anytime I walk past them they greet me; which makes me feel they really care.
It’s a very quiet building and it’s dog friendly. My only issue would be that residents put their trash right by the trash can instead of in it. I’ve seen both management and maintenance have to throw it away. I mean come on people. You pay good money to live here, and you want someone else to do your dirty work? Additionally, there are some people who do have dogs that also don’t clean their mess, and yet again the staff has to do it. I feel so bad for them that they have to clean other peoples responsibilities up. WALK YOUR DOG AND CLEAN YOUR MESS OR DON“T HAVE A PET! Management gives you doggy bags… really is it too hard for you?
Anyway, I love it here.

This is by far the worst place I have ever lived.
My roommates and I moved in and right away we realized that our dishwasher wasn’t working and that it was leaving rust stains on all of our dishes. We told the manager who had the maintenance guy come and take a look at it. From there we were told that it was because we were using generic brand dish soap and not name brand. That was absolutely absurd so we continued to complain until finally we were told we would be getting a new dishwasher. The «new» dishwasher came and it was installed and it oddly had the same rust marks as our old dishwasher and still did not clean any of our dishes.
Our next problem came when we were having an abnormally large amount of ants in our apartment. Not just by the door but also in our shower and in the master bathroom sink. We immediately determined that they had to be getting in through the plumbing. When we contacted the manager again to send the maintenance guy to take a look at it, we were again told that it was our fault because we kept our recycling under our sink and we should be rinsing that stuff out. Unknown to them, we did wash all of our recycling and under the sink is not where we were having a problem. The problem worsened one afternoon when we had finished cooking lunch and we put our dirty dishes in the sink. Approximately two hours later we had a HUGE infestation of ants all over our sink and on the walls of our kitchen. I have never seen this many ants in my whole entire life. It was like they created one large living organism. I was completely grossed out and they finally took our complaints seriously enough to hire an exterminator and the problem was immediately fixed.
Another issue I have is with the washer and dryers that are on location. The only way to use them is with a card that you load money on, which at first wasn’t an issue when the washer and dryer each cost $ 1.50. However, during our stay the cost of the washer was raised to $ 1.75. Not a huge deal right, it’s only 25 cents. However the smallest bill that the card machine would take is a $ 5. This means that the balance on the card will never get down to $ 0. I currently still have $ 1.25 on my card that is absolutely of no use to me.
The manager is never in the office. She claims that her work week is Tuesday thru Saturday, however even on Tuesday in the middle of the day there is always a sign on the door that says she is out. The maintenance guy once told me she was out to lunch and 3 hours later the sign that said closed was still up.
About 3 months before our lease was up we were notified that rent for a 2 bedroom 1.5 bath was going to be increasing from $ 1,730 to $ 2,330. We did not think that this place was worth a $ 600 increase in rent so we chose to move out. When moving out, we cleaned all of the walls, the kitchen, the bathrooms, and all of the bedrooms. We figured we would still get charged a cleaning fee because we did have two cats. We did a walk through and were told by the manager that we could get charged to repaint the cabinets in the kitchen and any stains that carpet cleaning did not get out. After moving out we got a bill that stated that not only were we not getting out $ 900 deposit back, but that we also owed $ 350 dollars. They claimed that they had to repaint all of the walls due to irreversible damage and that they had to deep clean the entire apartment and then rip out the carpet and replace all of it with plank flooring. However, they were so kind as to only charge us for what it would cost to replace carpet because it is cheaper than plank flooring. There is absolutely no reason that any of the carpet had to come up. None of it was destroyed beyond cleaning abilities. Yes there were some stains in the living room but that’s it. Basically they are charging us to upgrade the apartment for them to plank flooring.
We called the management company to discuss everything three separate times and each time I got directed to a voicemail and we never received a call back from anyone. Instead we would just get an email from the manager addressing the voicemail.
Even after disputing charges with the manager (over email because she would never call me) it looks like we are going to have to pay for everything because we are broke college students who don’t have the time or money to take this to a small claims court.
Thanks for screwing us over completely with everything. This company is the worst I have ever dealt with and I do not recommend this place to anyone.

I currently live here and can confidently says that the past issues and or complaints mentioned here on Unilocal have all been resolved as I have never had an issue with either the trash, parking or AC situations. The property manager on property site is always very attentive and responsive to any calls that I make although those calls are few and far between.
Everybody keeps to themselves here and noise or noise complaints are not an issue here. In addition the property is well kept and landscaped every week. If you have a dog they provide doggie bags at the front entrance of the property with an area to put those doggie bags after your pup has done his/​her thing.
I have been very happy with my experience here and have recommended this property to friends.
Just my two cents…

i wanted to move my family there, the manager that we talked to was a young female in her late 20’s she was nice but didn’t really want to show us around her office that happens to be a two bedroom does anyone know how big the rooms are in a two bedroom 1.5 bathroom that is in this apartment complex? the duplex i live in right now is suppose to be 1,000 square feet, but my rooms are hell of small i can barely fit my queen bed with the two night stands and my dresser. my room is 90 square feet from my measurements and yes both rooms have a spacious closet but because of how big the owner made the closets, it made the rooms even smaller! i want to move out of here! i personally don’t know if the owner measured the duplex from outside and that’s how he came out with 1,000 sq feet or something like that LOL! if i am gonna be stuck where i live now i will change this ugly faded mustard color carpet that the owner claims to be «new» to something more of my liking. the two rooms and spacious living room measure a total of 563sq feet of carpeting. if someone that lives there sees this please let me know how big the rooms are at the foothills at eaton canyon apartments. thanks for reading…

We have lived here for over a year and will be moving out soon. The property itself is okay. There is a pool and they keep the grounds clean and the landscaping is well done. However it might be the least professionally run complex in which I have lived. The day we were scheduled to move in, they called us and said no one would be around to give us our key and that we would have to move in on Monday. Then after we moved in we realized that some of the apartments had patios, some didn’t — same rent price. After a few months we then realized that some apartments had two air conditioners, others had one — same rent price. Not to mention, the air conditioner in our apartment was from at least 20 years ago (had that 70’s yellow/​beige color and everything). After complaining that it didn’t work very well the first time, and being told that older air conditioners were better as they don’t have the same environmental standards as newer ones, I finally put my foot down and pointed out that our apartment never reached below 80 degrees in the summer. I will say that the property manager at that time acted promptly, and got us a new ac unit within days (on the second complaint). Finally, there was the parking situation. We were first told that we could have two parking spots for our one bedroom, then after about six months were reduced to one spot. Once we put in notice, our spot was promptly reassigned to a new tenant, two weeks before we actually moved out. And then there is the newest issue, the trash situation. Lately somebody has been closing the top to the dumpster, which the tenants here have taken to thinking that they should just throw their trash in front of the dumpster. There also isn’t a recycling bin. They have gone through 5 property managers since we have moved here, only one of whom was worth much, and unfortunately was moved to SD to take over another property. On the up side, they are pet friendly, the apartments are nicely remodeled and spacious.
