The walls are fairly thin, and even though they are tough on curfew rules you will hear stuff from neighbors above you and below you. Not to mention others will hear from your room as well. Some of the tenants are college students and some are not. I would say 50/50 from my experience.
The place is right by the school, if you need a place it will work out. If you don't have a car Its walking distance. You got a shuttle if necessary. Laundry on site. Plenty of parking. They are strict with rules but some people still disobey. The managers tends to be very responsive when you are on-site. Once you are out of the lease it can become difficult.
Left this place on good terms (finished lease and was fully paid) and even recieved my deposit only to find out years later that L.O. had charged my credit for over 500 dollars with no explanation. I contacted then and found out that new management had taken over the month I left. They seemed very sympathetic at the time. Now, the property manager avoids my calls and has not helped in any way to resolve the issue even after admitting during our first encounter that I "wasn't the first to have this sort of problem." Apart from that, the units were extremely overpriced compared to similar spaces in the area. Bottom line, this place is just a bad deal, even if it was managed properly. Please heed this warning and do not rent here.
I asked for the refund when I stopped by last month, March 3rd, 2016, and she says the accountant is in New Jersey and it has to come from them. This is sketch. I understand they are busy and I try and take that into consideration. But she is just not returning the calls. And I have made several, just to follow up!
AN Awful place to live... the old manager was nice even though he did little to help. The owner is always never speaks or says hello to anyone unless he's telling you what your doing wrong at the apartments. I lived there for a year and had cable for a month and half only. It has no central ac/ heat. You have to pay to wash and dry your clothes. You pay for electricity out of your own pocket. No internet. I had a leak happen within the first week of living there. For the next month i had no wall at all. Then it took a week before I moved out to have the wall pained on the inside. Ants and other bugs are always finding their way into the apartment. I had a copperhead in my apartment and the manager did nothing to get rid of it or ake sure that it wouldnt happen again. Its not pet friendly. Huge space to let your dog run free and play but the manager/owner has a problem with that and says that the pets must be on a leash at all time. It's an 300 pet deposit and an extra 20 a month to keep a pet. And on top of all that the cost to move is now 750?.For what? Your better off going to the peaks or somewhere else to live. I would never reccomend for anyone to live at these apartments!!!! Good Luck apartment hunting.

Obvious:
Its April 1, 2016 now and she is yet to follow up with the accountant to get me my refund. $740 is what I gave when I moved in, that's a lot of money. They are not taking their lease seriously. The contract states that after 30 days I am due for the refund. And I don't know why others are having the same issue. Its obvious she knows whats going on and is not doing anything about. I filed a complaint with several agencies and looking forward to getting the refund back.
It's been almost a year since my lease ended with Laurel Oaks Apartments, 4214 Little Savannah Rd, Cullowhee, NC 28723 and I still have not gotten my security deposit. It was $740 at the time I rented, Sept 2015. Minus carpet fee ($80) I am still due $660 for the deposit.
As I was leaving she starts apologizing and saying don't feel its just you there others having the same issue. She starting asking for my address again to forward it to. I gave you a self addressed/stamped envelope!! Come on lady! (this was this past January)
the worst living experience ever. The managers are completely unreasonable probably because they are about to run out of business. I got a trash fine for somebody going to the dumpster looking for something and threw my old trash on the ground that had my name in some of it. Also laundry room is not nice and its not free. People stole some of my clothes four different times. Not pet friendly. Cable and internet is always in and out. No AC. cold showers. The place would be cool if the manager and owner were nice but they arent. They are cheaper than the peaks or savannah but the extra 40 bucks a month is worth it to just go to a way better place. So if you like pets and hot showers and keeping your clothes and not getting outrageous fees then you are better off staying away from Laurel oaks
You can find cheaper places elsewhere. Now with more developments out in Cullowhee Laurel Oaks Apartments may take a hit cause of cheaper rates. So I would not be surprised they may start or showing difficulties. If you need a place to choose, find the lesser of two evils. A lot of places out here try to "survive" so they will pull stuff. WCU needs to start providing some advice and help in regards to housing.
