May 2018: Exemplary staff, worked really well to make sure I was matched with preferred roommates. Living here so far has been such a nice experience. Kudos to management and staff for running a smooth business and a wonderful complex. Review from Google
May 2018: PERFECT if you’re planning on transferring from Santa Fe to UF. I moved here when I was 18 and attending Santa Fe College, it was the best decision I could have made. I continued living at Spyglass Apartments for most of my undergrad, even when I transfered to UF. Their roommate matching system is fantastic and they match people on their own, NOT using a computer. I ended up with roommates who were UF students and they guided me through the process of transferring to UF. Overall best experience!!!! Review from Google
Apr 2018: Pretty good. It's kinda pricey, but it's pretty and has really good maintenance. Every Friday it gets cleaned and they're constantly working on it. It has a pool and a hot tub. The dog park isn't very pretty and it's muddy sometimes, but it's not bad. I love that it's pet friendly. There's free printing (bring paper) and sometimes tutoring services. My apartment looked good. The roommate matching for me was suuuper good! It's not 100% safe, but what place is completely safe in a college town? If any problem happens they try to solve it quickly. It's not noisy. Sometimes people play music but they're college kids so it's ok every once in a while some music. The living room is small but the rooms are spacious. My room has the smallest bathroom but it's the most private and has a really convenient counter. I was lucky that my apt had renovated ap Review from GoogleApr 2018: This 5-Star review is for the maintenance team at Spyglass. I am so impressed with how quickly and thoroughly they respond to maintenance issues. Review from Google
Mar 2018: The furniture mover Emilio was a complete scumbag. His manager Sid was too. Very idiotic and difficult people. Review from Google
Feb 2018: I’ve recently signed a temporary sublease here and I’ve liked my stay here, so far I’m looking to renew my lease! My roommates are great, management isn’t the best (seems like they’re always confused all the time), but they’re definitely better than some other places I’ve rented from. It’s a very nice community with the occasional loud neighbors, but keep in mind it is a college town. Overall I’ve very happy with my choice! Review from GoogleJul 2017: It's an apartment complex with lots of great amenities. Swimming pool, jacuzzi study area, math help and very pleasant staff. Free bus to schools and shopping, is just a few steps away. Quiet and gated. Review from Google

Jun 2017: The staff here is extremely friendly, welcoming and most importantly helpful. Spyglass's exterior look is beautiful and the apartments are very homey. The surrounding area is very clean and safe. My experience was extremely easy and not stressful at all especially since I had to move in so quickly. I am in love with my new 2/2 apartment and wouldn't want to be anywhere else! Everyone was so very helpful in my transition and extremely informative. Review from 06/10/17 on ApartmentRatingsApr 2017: I have been living at Spyglass for almost 2 years now, and I literally cannot say enough good things about Spyglass. The complex itself is beautiful, and we love the pool area. We feel very safe in the neighborhood, and even though it's considered "far away" from campus, I get to the law school in about 12 minutes every morning. Not far at all. Maintenance is very responsive, I've never had a request answered more than a business day later.
You'll notice that almost all of the 1 star reviews have nothing to do with the complex besides move-out fees. I obviously can't speak to that because I still live here, but even if they charge me money on move out, I believe it would still WELL worth it to live here. Review from GoogleApr 2017: A Good Experience Overall
Super cute apartment and grounds. Apartments are older but have charm. The grounds are safe and well kept. Great maintenance crew, we called them over 24/7 but they were always super helpful. Office staff was nice but I had a few packages lost.
I lived on the first floor, we were fairly clean, but had a MASSIVE gnat problem; I had to eat with a fan at my face. We also had our fair share of cockroaches, but that may have been the product of just living in a wooded area on the first floor.
Overall, I really would recommend Spyglass, just spray for bugs yourself, and be anal about documenting ALL damage before you move in.

Apr 2017: they are awesome, very cozy, very lovely. maintenance are fast and great. very responsible. second floors are awesome. absolutely no problem with bugs. i love this place and recommend to every one Review from GoogleApr 2017: DO NOT MOVE IN HERE. They have the lowest quality apartments and service in the Gainesville area, especially for what they charge. The apartments are dated and the management team does not care to fix them for their tenants. They make you return your keys and after you move out, they charge you an insane amount of move out charges. They also do not care about matching you with the right roommates and do not separate the charges of things that they break. Every single person that works here will give you a bad attitude and they NEVER do a good job on the maintenance requests. The WORSE experience and complex in Gainesville! Plus, there are dry leaves everywhere all the time, roaches, snakes, raccoons, and possums... they just do not take care of the community.

Review from GoogleJan 2017: The overall apartments are nice and the front office was good to me however I was home one day while 2 guys who work for maintenance came in and they didn't know anyone was there and started complaining about how they don't get paid enough, talking about how the managers drive them insane, and saying inappropriate things about women. I loved my room but they need to be more careful with what they say.
Review from 1/24/17 on GoogleOct 2016: Just moved and the moving day was smooth and easy process! Also maintenance is amazing and the come ASAP to fix things! Also the people in the leasing office are very caring people! I wish I moved here a year ago!
