Our Review

Strong opinions divide this complex starkly. Some residents praise staff responsiveness and say they've had quiet, pest-free years; others describe urgent repairs left dangling (faulty stoves, foundation cracks, mold), management denials of prior complaints, and tenants charged retroactively for damage after move-out inspections cleared the unit.

Safety troubles recur across reviews: homeless individuals on grounds, witnessed break-in attempts, thin walls carrying neighbor noise and arguments, police calls, and speeding. Guest parking fees of $20-22 per day after two visits per week have triggered multiple eviction threats and cost one tenant $600+ in violations. Maintenance requests submitted in person are often dropped with no follow-up.

Praised for
  • responsive staff by name
  • prompt maintenance (when it happens)
  • no pest issues in some units
  • friendly office team
Watch-outs
  • serious maintenance delays and abandonment
  • dishonest management and false documentation
  • safety concerns and trespassing
  • thin walls and noise
  • mold and water damage ignored
  • predatory guest parking fees
  • security failures and crime
  • poor move-out charge practices

Best for: Single residents or couples without frequent visitors or pets requiring careful documentation.
Think twice if: Families with children, frequent guests, or those needing reliable maintenance response. Multiple reviews cite safety gaps, thin walls, and unresolved repair neglect.

What Reviewers Like

  • named staff (Denise, Emily) known for quick action
  • some residents report 2+ years with no pest problems
  • on-site pool, fitness center, and walking trail

What to Know Before You Tour

  • Denise and Emily named as responsive staff in positive reviews, but same office manager (Denise) named in negative reviews for dishonesty and denial
  • faulty stoves only temporarily bandaged, not replaced
  • foundation cracks causing gaps in patio doors; mold complaints from water damage
  • guest parking agreement with tow company charges $20-22 per visit after two free visits per week; one tenant reports $300+ tow fee, another claims $600+ in violation fees
  • maintenance requests documented as submitted but abandoned with no follow-up
  • roach infestation in one unit above went unresolved despite weekly requests over two months
  • move-out inspections signed off as damage-free, then complex charged for damages after resident left

What Stands Out

Garden Style (1-4 stories)
Walking trail, pool, and clubhouse present but pool frequently closed; grounds reportedly have trash and dog waste not cleaned up.
Affordable Housing
Income-based eligibility enforced inconsistently; one tenant claims management knew she earned too much but charged her anyway; another says management lied about her owing move-out fees to block her departure.

How quickly does maintenance respond?
Reviews conflict. Some residents report quick emergency response; others describe submitted requests going unanswered for weeks, with no follow-up even after a technician inspects the issue.
Are there pest problems?
Experiences vary widely. Some long-term residents report zero bugs; others describe severe roach infestations from neighboring units that management did not fully resolve.

Most residents praise the leasing staff by name, especially Sandra and Crystal, for personal attention during tours and moves. They report timely maintenance, modest rent increases, strong community events hosted by staff, and the quiet lake-view setting. A small number experienced serious problems: one tenant faced a $3,539 final bill with disputed cleaning and reletting fees after a move, while another reported months of water damage, odors, and pests that staff addressed only with temporary fixes rather than permanent solutions. The complex appeals to families and long-term renters seeking active management and amenities. Prospective residents should verify move-out policies and inspect units carefully before signing, especially around plumbing and ventilation.

Five-star reviewers consistently praise the quiet, clean apartments and natural amenities like golf course views and firefly-lit creek walks. Leasing agents Mariah, Lauren, Sarah, and Krystle drew particular praise for smooth move-in experiences. However, recent one and two-star reviews paint a sharp contrast, citing persistent maintenance failures (living room floors with structural damage left unrepaired since February), roach infestations, and staff dismissiveness. Multiple residents noted a marked decline in management quality and responsiveness after the property shifted from Cortland to RPM, with work orders marked completed despite no repairs and complaints dismissed rather than resolved.

Most residents praise Cortland Fossil Creek for responsive maintenance staff and a welcoming leasing office. Jessie, Simon, Rahni, and Julie are named repeatedly for going above and beyond. The property is noted as quiet with clean units, walking trails, and two resort pools. However, a detailed recent review flags significant concerns: a $2,999 move-out charge for disputed damage, poor landscaping with unmaintained breezeway areas, recurring security problems including garage break-ins and package theft, and difficulty obtaining documentation from the leasing office. Long-term residents report positive stays, but newer or departing residents cite poor documentation and communication during disputes. Quality of life hinges on which team members assist you and how disputes are handled. Amenities (washer-dryer, pools, outdoor kitchen, bark parks, fitness center) are advertised on their website. Pet fees run $400 upfront plus $20 monthly per pet. One-bedroom starts at $1,224 including fees; three-bedroom at $2,065. If problems arise, reviewers advise photographing the entire unit before move-in and keeping all correspondence to protect yourself financially.
