The Falls at Arden Apartments

The property is always well kept. (the storm has created some problems but the management team is always spot on with clearing that up!) There has been a lot of updates to the property which I enjoy tremendously! I feel so much more at home with the updates. I live on the first floor but I hear the 2^nd floor has high ceilings. ANYTIME I have an issue, the management team is always willing to help out. Lexus in the front of the office is always entertaining and enjoyable. Even when she is busy, I will wait. I always ask for her. There is another woman in the back who is quiet and stays in her office but very nice when I talk to her. I haven’t been able to speak to the manager yet. (they have changed managers a couple l times since I’ve moved here.) I have had a few issues where they watered too much during this drought but it seems to me that it’s been resolved. There is a lot of dog poop so watch out. I do see maintenance cleaning that up daily though. Parking can get difficult at times for guests but there will always be a space open, just might now be as close as you want. I never hear parties going on though many people here are college students, including myself. Sometimes there will be parties in the clubhouse but those simmer down when night falls. If you’ve had a bad experience, it’s probably because you gave a bad attitude or were unable to get what you wanted. *customer is NOT always right!* Every place has policies and procedures. Follow them and you won’t have a problem. It’s always so much easier to complain than it is to compliment. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!!!

I’m not a resident here, but for the past couple days I’ve been apartment sitting for my boyfriend and i must say that the complex is very calm and nice. So far the neighbors around have been very friendly and kind. Not too much going on in the night activities which is great. I honestly, would recommend anyone living here because it’s decent pricing and there’s so much to do. If I didn’t already have my own place, i swear i’d move here. :)

I am a relatively new resident of The Falls at Arden in Sacramento but I can report the following already. My apartment is a one bedroom charmer, with vaulted ceilings in each room; I live on the second floor, which makes the vaulted ceilings possible. The paint job is very well done and the carpet is relatively new. The appliances and finishings are dated but well maintained. The maintenance crew is responsive and answers calls right away. The neighbors I’ve met are friendly and diverse.
I appreciate the number of laundry centers on the property and the fact that all the machines work. You use a prepaid card, which makes laundry life easy. The property is beautifully landscaped and maintained. The office staff are friendly and helpful.
I love the fitness center, the pool and the resident center. I’m also loving the location, close to all main drags in town and dhopping, the library, and Sac State. Beautiful neighborhood. I’ve felt very welcome here. I highly recommend.

I lived here from June 2013 to August 2015. In short, I loved living here. There were never any issues with other tenants; everyone was respectful of one another. Maintenance was great and always fixed things right away. The apartment itself (layout) is really nice and the bedrooms are very spacious. I’ve never had an issue with management. I lived here through two different companies and both were great.
The only downer that I can really say is that the parking is not that great. You do receive one assigned parking spot but if you have more than one car then it can be an issue at times. There are a lot of open spaces but those spaces fill up really fast. There were often times where I had to park on the opposite side of the apartment complex (from where my apartment was actually located) because there were no open spaces.
My roommate and I decided to go our separate ways so I looked into a one bedroom apartment but was sad to see that it was so expensive and unfortunately was something that I could not afford. Otherwise, I would have stayed.
We got our deposit back in full including our pet deposit.

I’ve never written a bad review in my life, but this place is just too much! I’ve lived here for 2 years now and used to love it until the current management, Woodmont, took over. First of all, they’ve made so many unnecessary changes and caused a lot of inconvenience for residents. Repainting everything, forcing us to inhale the toxic fumes. I even had the painters just appear on my balcony while I was in my robe one day. Resurfacing the pool in summer? And now redoing the asphalt in the parking lot causing my car to be towed the day I have jury duty!!! They’ve also raised my rent by $ 50 a month, and a very loud fire alarm goes off LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE NIGHT AT MIDNIGHT! They put endless notices about all this stuff on your door but never email you about it, so if you’re hardly ever home like me, you wake up one morning and find your car towed. They won’t even answer their phones! The property is also in a ghetto neighborhood. Lots of homeless people come in and out, random ghetto people use the pool and facilities, treadmills always out of order in the gym. It’s just not what it used to be and I 100% blame Woodmont. My advice, DO NOT MOVE HERE! You can get a lot more for much cheaper and have peace of mind.

Construction workers turns off water frequently without notices. Car was towed due to lack of communication. They blocked off a section of the parking area but yet failed to block off another area which led to tenants assuming it was OK to park their cars in. So over 20 tenants vehicles were towed at $ 240 a car. And the managers aren’t trying to reimburse us in any way but to only inform us that she’s also a tenant and doesn’t receive special treatment. Uhh. do I care if u are being treated evenly or not for living amongst us?. No. Make things right because of your miscommunication. And yes I did see the notices that were on the door but I didn’t see caution tape blocked off like the other parking lot was. Go figure

DISCLAIMER: This review is from a visitor’s perspective. I am not, nor have I ever been a tenant of The Falls.
My fiancé and I have a few friends who live in these apartments. One lives in a two bedroom apartment on the first floor and two others live in a one bedroom apartment on the second floor. Both floor plans are open and spacious. I especially like the second floor apartment, due to the high ceiling. The high ceiling adds more space to the apartment.
The complex itself is clean and well maintained. I’ve read reviews stating that this apartment complex is in the «middle of the ghetto,» but over the span of two years that I’ve visited, I’ve never seen any problems nor heard of any trouble. For those concerned about people breaking into your car, there’s a simple rule: DON’T LEAVE YOUR VALUABLES IN YOUR CAR AND KEEP EVERYTHING OUT OF SIGHT! It’s common sense. In addition, there is a security gate that requires a code after a certain time.
The Falls is a nice place, and I’d recommend it to students of Sac State.

Beautiful and well kept grounds in gated complex. Managers are friendly and helpful. Occasional morning donuts and drinks on way out in the morning is nice touch for residents. Dion and maintenance staff always on top of every request.

Not bad for an apartment complex in the Arden area! Nice buildings, nice landscaping, a beautiful pool with two spas, and a workout room.
You wouldn’t think you’re in the middle of the ghetto.
The people in the office are also very friendly.
Only 3 stars though because my boyfriend had his motorcycle stolen in May, and although we were able to view the security tapes, the video was VERY low quality. Someone had put the bike in a trailer attached to a truck that had a freaking company LOGO on the side, which would be great evidence to use in catching the thieves if there were anyway to make out the horrible quality of the film.
If you’re going to have security tapes, why not spend a little more money on something legible? See the photos I attached to understand what I mean

My family and I recently moved in these apartments and so far we really enjoy it. The complex is nicely kept with lots of trees that provide shade. The pool, gym, and clubhouse is very nice as well. The pool area reminds me of a resort style pool (the pool is huge for an apartment complex) and the pool and spas are always clean. The complex is quiet and the neighbors are friendly. Most of the other tenants always say hello as you walk by them. The only downside is that it’s sometimes hard to find uncovered parking in the evening when most people are home. I would recommend living in a downstairs unit in buildings A or B. There’s lots of shade, so the apartment stays cool. We barely even have to use our AC even when it’s over 100 degrees outside. I would really recommend this place! Very close to everything in the area as well.

The Falls at Arden — Our new home!
We just moved in 2 weeks ago and upon move-​in we had a few hiccups with keys, gate remotes and the AC but management is so overachieving and always willing to accommodate to our needs that all of our issues have been resolved and we are happy tenants.
The grounds are well kept and the community is relaxed and tranquil. The neighbors up the street are not ideal but the community is gated therefore providing added security. It is also very cool that the clubhouse upstairs in the leasing office can be rented for parties or just to have the floor to yourself (We will be doing that eventually).
The apartment has a TON of storage space which is amazing considering I have way too many things. The living room, dining room, and bedroom are ample enough to fit in all the necessary furniture and the kitchen is great in terms of architecture, the lights have a modern touch and there is a bar countertop ideal for a quick meal.
We have yet to pay our first utility bill therefore I cannot comment on that.
Thank you management especially Ivy for making us feel at home!

I lived at the Falls for 2 years.
Pros:
Beautiful grounds
Ok staff
Really cute apartments
Lots of storage space
Ability for residents to rent out beautiful lounge area over looking the pool
Cons:
Security can be harsh at times
Non — residents are always at the pool
Lots of college students, so it’s always busy
Rent is increased every year! Doesn’t matter if they make improvements or not!
Assigned parking is BS, because ppl park where they want (non residents included)
Landry facilities are always full and often dirty
Overall it was a nice experience, but at some point you’ll just want more.

I have lived here at the Falls for two years now and they are by far the greatest apartments I have ever lived. It is nice and quiet, the neighbors are friendly and it just feels like home. I rarely have problems in the place but when I do maintenance is on it in no time which is what I appreciate as well. I had recently moved from a two bed room down to a single and during that move I forgot to pack my pots and pans (which was totally my fault) so they ended up getting tossed in the trash when clean up crew came around. The apartment management got me a gift card to go and purchase all new pots and pans !! How awesome is that? What other apartment complex would do such a thing? I love this place and wouldn’t want to live anywhere else! If you’re looking to live here, go for it! You wouldn’t regret it!

Generally a nice place to live.
Downsides: Utilities actually run closer to $ 50 a month than the $ 15 a month they claim when you’re leasing (and fluctuates, so you never know what you’re going to be billed), there are bums that wander in to go through the trash bins (the gates are open during the day), nonresidents use the pool in the summer, and there is definitely unsavory activity going on at the park across the street (the cops are there regularly). Also, a friend of mine got a referral bonus here and they tried to stiff her on it.
Positives: A great gym (one of the best I’ve seen at an apartment complex), the staff are (mostly) very nice, and the coin op laundry costs about the same as taking it to a laundromat. Maintenance staff is responsive and there’s a lot of storage area in the apartments.

Love it! Def recomend!

The reviews on this complex are most old and outdated. It is obvious that they were probably unhappy for not getting their deposit back or something.
I have been very happy here. The complex is well managed, the staff is great, and they repair things quickly after notifying them of a problem. I like the fact that we have a pool, two spas, and a weight room on site. They are nice and clean… and it doesn’t seem to be too busy like 24 hour.
I’d recommend this place to a friend or family… and I will probably stay here until I buy a place of my own.

I don’t know how the actual apartments are to LIVE in, but I can certainly attest to their business practices. I considered living there, applied and put down a refundable deposit on an available apartment ($ 350). Days later I lost my job, but they did not do an actual employment verification (which they admitted to). Somehow I still lost the deposit, since I «qualified to live there» without income, and did not ask for the deposit back in time. Complained to the BBB, yet they nor I ever received a response from the apartment management. An expensive lesson learned. Three thumbs down.

This place is really nice, they rehabed it and remodeled the pool and spas which are sparkly almost all of the time. The staff is friendly and they get right on top of things when they break. Also they pay the gas bill and the water. Best deal around the whole area, without the ghetto!

I moved in on August 1^st 2009. I’ve noticed that the reviews here are old and probably don’t apply anymore.
Anyways, I used to live in Del Paso Heights where THAT was a bad area. I’ve been here 3 months and absolutely enjoy this place! The grounds are absolutely beautiful, the people are wonderful, nice, and helpful and I love being near my work and entertainment!
I mean, just a few weeks ago the office ladies put together a «Drive Thru Breakfast» for those who leave out in the morning. I got a free granola bar and apple juice as I drove out to work. I had never experienced something like that before.
When I moved in, the cover on my living room light had dropped from the ceiling. I informed the maintenance lady and she had someone come over to fix it immediately. She is also super nice!
I don’t know what kind of grudge that one reviewer had, but this apartment complex is lovely. I use the grills and the hot tub almost daily. I also like that I can access the computer lab to print stuff since my printer is broken.
I’ve got a year long lease, and if I stay in the area, I’ll be renewing it.

It’s an apartment complex that pretty much fits the average complex expectations. My advice, don’t live on the downstairs apartments. You can hear the water pipes CLEARLY. Everytime my upstairs neighbor took a shower it sounded like a monsoon in our bathroom. The tenants in the complex are a large portion of students, 20 somethings/​young families, and a few weirdos. It’s not a huge «party complex» and I never had a really big problem with noise. They allow pets which was really nice, they even provide little «doggie stations» (poop bags/​trash cans) which was really nice! although not all the residents chose to use them.
The model they show you looks nicer than some of the ACTUAL units. It’s obvious that they have been bought&sold a couple times in the last few years. They clearly started redoing stuff and stopped once they got new owners. The grounds look much nicer than the apartments. My only other comment really about the units was it had a LOT of storage.
Lastly, I actually got my deposit back. This is worth saying because LOTS of apartment complexes have screwed me over after I spent hours cleaning. They just took out the mandatory «pet carpet cleaning» stuff. Not too bad though. (This is why they got 3 stars instead of 2)
