You will pay $250 pet deposit per pet (cat/dog) plus $45 a month.
You can't grill outside... you have to share 1 grill for apts A-Q (16 apts each) located by the office.
If you use the pool, you have to take your soaking wet towels inside, and either wash them right away, or throw them in the dryer.. cause if you hang them outside, you'll get fined $25-$35.
Make sure your visitors park in visitors parking.. still not a guarantee they won't get towed... the car can get towed 20+ miles away
There are areas where rain floods the sidewalks.
On any given day you can smell pot inside, and out of the apartments.
People drink in the parking lots, and play loud music all times of the day, and night.
People work on their cars, and leave them jacked up, and unattended.
Repairs can take weeks, and or months to be fixed if at Review from Google
Nov 2018: If i could give zero i would. The only reason im doing this is to stop somebody from making the same mistake that we did. Now my recommendation if you have nothing else and this is your VERY LAST option pick maybe a top floor on the end. Ive been here since Feb 2018 and i have had to call them once or more at least every month since ive been here. My first call was a week after we moved in and our locks were changed and nobody notified us on a Saturday! We had both gotten off work and arrived home with groceries at 10:30 pm we called and the maintenance manager said there was nothing he could do since the office wasnt open and to call and pay a locksmith. After 3 hours we finally got into the apartment! They had to drill the lock and give us new keys bc theirs didnt work. Another time was recent and i called and informed them of the water leak Review from Google
Sep 2018: GREAT PLACE TO LIVE. TERRIFIC OFFICE STAFF AND MAINTENANCE. BEAUTIFUL REFURBISHED APARTMENTS, VERY CONVENIENT LOCATION TO SHOPPING AND MAJOR HIGHWAYS. HIGHLY RATED SCHOOLS . REASONABLE RENT, AND LOTS OF AMENITIES. BEEN HERE CLOSE TO 2 YEARS AND LOVING IT. Review from GoogleJul 2018: My family and I have stayed in EstesPark for the past two years, it has been a wonderful Place to call home. The office staff is Awsome, friendly, helpful, they always comply in a timely manner, and are willing to go the extra mile for their tenants.
The maintenance guys courteous, extreamliy knowledgeable, and timely as well.
The grounds are very well-kept and management seems very committed to improving of the community and the overall stay of the tenants . This property is an excellent location for students as well as families seeing that entertainment, shopping, and parks are all less than a five minute bus or Uber ride away, 10 minutes if your walking.
If I didn’t need more space for my family then I would definitely renew my lease.
Thank you Estes Park for making us apart of the family. Review from GoogleJun 2018: I’ve lived here for 6 months now and I love it! The apartments are older so there are occasionally some issues but maintenance is very responsive so I didn’t subtract a star.
I have never met a mean person in this complex. The office staff are especially nice; they even send signed birthday cards to their tenants.
Very family friendly. Since I’ve lived here there have been at least 10 events for families. Review from Google
May 2018: Terrible place to live management is very discriminative and rude! I’m 8 months pregnant and since I’m not renewing my lease I’m being charged 758$ for an extended lease of a week and 3days because I gave my notice a week late when I was unaware that it was late and received a notice that said I had until the 15th of may to let them know if I was renewing or not and I took my notice to the office the 14th of may and the manger extended my lease without consent and lied and said they notified me serval times which I never received anything but that 1letter and responded within the given date. Apartments are cheap but you get what you pay for! Review from GoogleMay 2018: I was looking for somewhere inexpensive to stay so as I don't have to live in poverty just to keep from being homeless. I saw the price for Estes Park and decided to read the reviews. Now I've decided that poverty it is!
Damn! I can't believe that this is a place located in Chapel Hill. I'm from ghetto ass Kansas City for christ''s sake and I'm afraid that if I moved into Estes Park it'd be like I've moved back to the Kansas City projects. I feel deep sympathy for the people living there. These reviews are horrible.

Dec 2017: I can't wait for my lease to end. The only good thing about this place is the cheap rent but you get what you pay for really. Constantly finding and killing roaches in my apartment and I don't live dirty. The only area management pays to treat is under the kitchen and bathroom sink so it doesn't do much good when roaches are everywhere. Maintenance does their best to keep the grounds clean but trash is always overflowing from the dumpster near my apartment and in the summertime it wreaks of garbage. Beware of renting here. It's the cheapest place in the Chapel Hill area but really not worth it. Review from Google
Nov 2017: I lived in Estes Park 16 years ago. It’s nice to read the reviews and see it’s still terrible and disgusting. The funny part is I was paying $525 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment. If I read the website correctly they are wanting 7-9 hundred for a one bedroom. Man I hate it for y’all. Review from GoogleSep 2017: ESTES PARK APARTMENTS IS A GREAT PLACE FOR SINGLES, COUPLES AND FAMILIES, THE GROUNDS ARE BEAUTIFULLY KEPT AND THE RENOVATED APARTMENTS ARE GORGEOUS. THE LOCATION OF THE APARTMENT COMPLEX CAN NOT BE BEATEN. IT IS NEAR SHOPPING, MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND EXCELLENT SCHOOLS. THE RENTAL COST IS ALSO UNBELIEVABLE FOR ALL YOU GET. THE MAINTENANCE CREW IS TIMELY, EFFICIENT AND COURTEOUS. THE OFFICE STAFF IS AWESOME. THEY ARE KIND, PERSONABLE, AND MOST OF ALL PATIENT. THEY HAVE TO BE TO PUT UP WITH ME !!! I HAVE LIVED HERE FOR ONE YEAR AND HAVE SIGNED A NEW LEASE TO CONTINUE MY RESIDENCE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ESTES PARK APARTMENT, IT IS A TERRIFIC PLACE TO CALL HOME. Review from GoogleAug 2017: Just moved in recently and so far so good. My expectations were not great considering the other reviews, but with the renovations (new carpet, new appliances, a new window in the living room) and the size of the 2 bedroom place for the price, it is pretty great. There were some problems with the place, but the office lady sent over maintenance right away to fix most of the biggest issues. Considering the price and the age of the apartments, it is great for students or anyone on a budget. The environment is fairly quiet, which is nice. Negatives: parts of the outside can be dirty, there are too many smokers that smoke outside of their apartment doors and the smell and smoke lingers and stinks, I wish they replaces all the windows because some of them are really old, and the occasional roach (to be expected given the area). All told: a good plac Review from Google
Aug 2017: Quiet and safe place to live, where the beautiful Wilson park is right across the street. Although the apartment itself is not in the best condition, but the management staff & leasing office ladies are very friendly and helpful. I reported some issues with my new apartment in the morning and one of the staff came by that afternoon and fixed most of problems. I was a bit concerned and didn't have the high expectation about this apartment after reading all the negative reviews on google, but it is far better than I thought. Review from GoogleMay 2017: Though the apartments themselves aren't the most premium, the people are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Anyone who visits this area will be struck by the fact that everyone hangs out on their stoops in the evenings. The accommodations are very cheap and there is a bus which will take your anywhere you need to go in Chapel Hill and Durham.
Review from 5/24/17 on GoogleApr 2017: Safe, but definitely poorly managed. Maintenance "cleans" apartments between renters by painting over grime. Neighbors are loud and weirdly nosey (I've seen people peering in my window more than once -- who does that?) It's hard to get in contact with the leasing office (they're always out to lunch), or know your status when it comes to moving in or out. When I moved in, the mailbox key didn't even match the number they told me it would, and I had to use trial & error to find my actual mailbox because the leasing office is THAT out of touch.
Review from 4/12/17 on GoogleSep 2016: I had the worst possible experience at Estes Park. Not only did we receive bed bugs and have our mattress/box spring ruined, but it was also nearly impossible to communicate with the management staff. The manager, Natasha Johnson, walked out on me during every conversation we had regarding bed bugs and deductions from the security deposit for "mattress removal," though I followed the advice of the health department. She threatened to call the police and had me escorted out by her security guard. If having a security guard for your landlord isn't enough of a red flag, please let this review steer you away from Estes Park.
Review from 9/20/16 on GoogleApr 2016: I have lived at Estes Park Apartments for two years. I am very pleased with my experience so far! The staff is attentive and friendly, and I have never felt like a nuisance or burden when I have approached them with my concerns or maintenance needs. All my requests for maintenance have been addressed in a timely manner, and all members of the maintenance staff I've met have been thoughtful and professional. In my two years living here I have never had a problem with my neighbors. The area has a lot of families, and is very family friendly. The children have a lot of space to play, whether it be at the pool, play ground, multi-purpose court, or the apartment grounds in general.
Review from 4/29/16 on Apartment RatingsNov 2015: Would like to commend ____ and the front office staff along with ____ and maintenance staff for their hard work and professionalism. Very caring and respectful towards others.
Review from 11/9/15 on Apartment RatingsSep 2015: Not the best looking place exteriorly in Chapel Hill. But it is pretty cheap. But there are other places that are almost as cheap and look better.Sep 2015: I have lived at the Estes Park for 2 years. The staff is very attentive and responsive to any and all support issues.A great place to call home. can't say enough good things.I especially would like to highlight the staff of the leasing office. Everybody is very friendly and helpful. If a maintenance issue is reported they show up as quickly as possible and resolve it in a very short period of time. By now, I feel like a they are a part of my family who you can always really on for any unpredictable technical issues. Everyone is always very polite, friendly, attentive to any needs while being very professional.
Review from 9/17/15 on Apartment RatingsJun 2015: The only improvement that could be made to any GSC property would be to reduce it to a smoking crater in the ground. The GSC corporation trades in vile business tactics, purchasing properties and running them into the ground to turn a quick buck. They rent to murderers, drug dealers and thieves. Heroin addicts traipse around, trying doorknobs; tricks stand on corners; dealers sling dope in the parking lots outside the office building.
To reiterate and emphasize: the only way to improve any GSC property would be to set it on fire and enjoy the show.
Review from 6/24/15 on Apartment RatingsOct 2014: The negative reviews are so true! The property manager X acts like she is a princess and everyone must kneel to her. She is extremely rude except when her superior is there, then she will bend over backwards for you. She should be secret shopped by perspective tenants. They should spend considerable time around while she is with other tenants already living there. Once they see how incredibly rude she is they can report it. I hope her manager reads this. Also when we lived there, there was mice, roaches, ect. and they said it was the tenants fault, but the bug man said they only pay to have the drawers in the kitchen and bath done. He said they should pay him to do the whole apartment, each one.
Review from 10/8/2014 on GoogleMay 2014: Estes Park can be hard to find if you don't know how to get there. However, once you know where it is then it's not a problem. Some of the buildings look a little old, but the interiors are newly renovated and look pretty modern. I love that the rent is really cheap but the interior of my apartment looks just as nice as those of my friends, who pay significantly more for their apartments. The amenities aren't fantastic but as a student at UNC I use the gym at school anyways. Overall I recommend this location to anyone looking for something on the cheaper end, but will get a great apartment nonetheless.
