    I was very disappointed after living in the area for several months. I was so done with everything associated with this place I paid an early termination fee and moved out. There is drug activity, gunfire on the weekends, roaches and ants...no matter how much you spray or keep house, maintenance responding in a timely manner (good luck with that), during power failures you are the last area restored (as if they know it is a bad area and the residents can wait), internet and cable is off and on no matter how fast your speeds, power outages for no reasons, my car was broken into and there was nothing that could be done, the schools serving this area are horrible, the apartment you get is nothing like the model, and at end of lease inspection you will be told everything is good to go. But months later when you have not received your deposit they will devise a reason to keep it. That has happened to too many to be a coincidence. So, Good luck to you...you may have a better experience.

        A Great Place to Stay!

        I've been a tenant here for nearly a year now and I can honestly say that I have no complaints with the management team or maintenance dept. Like anything that is constantly used (cars, homes, appliances, etc..), regular maintenance is required and expected. The few minor issues I had were resolved within the same business day, yes even on Sunday. Their security team makes me and my family feel safe and secure and worry-free. I have recommended this apartment before and will continue to recommend them. Thank you Towering Pines for making me feel at "home".

          this horrible place to stay

          the maintenance here's horrible and they do not care about the upkeep of the apartments.I will say they do come and cut the grass .my light bill in a 1 bedroom apartment is 200 dollars a month .I think there is mold in this apartment .the ac unit rattles when it comes on.they do not have adequate facilities for the trash so it over flows constantly.my handle broke off my stove and they still haven't came to fix it .the list goes on and on but basically do not move here .I'm leavin in 2 more months .

            Wasteland

            I lived in these apartment unfortunately for two years of hell. It takes management forever to fix a simple problem. The washing machine and dryers don't work most of the time. There is trash and half eaten plates of food tossed around on the property. Roaches, rats, drug dealers, crackheads and unemployed bums roam the property freely. Loud music, rowdy tenants, rapists and police chases are everyday occurances. If you move here don't be surprised if the entrance is blocked off with yellow caution tape and police cruisers, because shoot-outs occur on the regular here. You can't even walk to your mailbox, because you may catch a bullet in the crossfire. And the inside of the apartments have a deadly nasty stench that won't go away no matter how much you spray, burn incense or scrub with bleach. PLEAES DON'T MOVE HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE AND HEALTH. CAUTION KEEP AWAY DEADLY POISON!

              DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!

              I lived hear for 3 years. My apartment was broken into, a neighbor was murdered, I saw a gun shoot out in front of my building, there are constant drug raids.... the list goes on. The management are crooks and will extort money from you, the maintainance is a joke!!! Luckily, I recently moved out and feel happy and safe to be away from this hell hole. Please, if you value your life, don't move to towering pines apartments!!!

                    This place sucks

                    If you like living with ants, roaches, spiders, holes in your ceiling,and mold spores, this is the place for you. They suck you in with the pretense of being quiet and friendly, DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!!!! The maintenance was slow and very unprofessional. They stole my car from here, other stolen cars were found from here along with the drug bust. TAKE IT FROM ME DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                    Towering Pines was the worst apartment in Georgia. That $1.00 move in special is a joke. I agreed to give them a $1.00 just to break the least. It should be against the law to have an apartment like this in operation. Very unprofessional and does not keep adequate records of anything. Closes the office before the time designated for closing. Just a disgrace to the state of Georgia. Close them down please.

                      A REAL BAD ANT AND SPIDER PROBLEM. THE CURRENT MANAGER IN THE LEASING WAS ARRESTED ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO. FOR WHAT I DON'T KNOW BUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD SAID SHE DID NOT REPORT A ROBBERY THAT TOOK PLACE IN THEIR APARTMENTS. I EVEN SAY HER ON THE NEWS THAT NIGHT. YOU NEVER GET YOUR PROBLEMS SLOVED. IF THE MANAGER IS CARMEN PLEASE THINK AGAIN!

                        worst place ever

                        if you can deal with the attitudes and crappy service this is for you. The property manager is very lazy, rude, and unprofessional. maintenance drew takes a month to fix things. i know alot of people complain about things but the drug and crime rate is ridiculous. My car got stolen and my neighbor apartment was broken into. when i contacted the police they stated they have had alot of cars broken into out there. The apartment was infected with bugs, ants, and spiders. I am happy my lease is up. I wouldn't recommend this to my ex and I hate his guts,
