I have enjoyed living at the Reserve! Close to downtown Evanston and Kellogg, and best dog friendly. The fire pit is a nice touch when it’s cold! Lots of Kellogg folks too.

Great location, ~5-7 min bike (~15 min walk) to the Kellogg Global Hub, a couple of restaurants across the street, close to many other Kellogg students in The Reserve, E2, 1717, and other apartments, nice to have a gym in the building and in-unit laundry, very spacious floor plan (we are 2 bedroom 2 bath), lots of natural light, management is great, we are only paying $2250 which is amazing value for what we are getting (especially compared to other prices I have heard), garage is secure and warm, package pickup system works great. Only downsides are sometimes I can hear stuff outside / from next door, but usually no problems at all.

Updated apartments with stainless steel appliances, wood floors, and great lighting. Mid-rise buildings and central courtyard/pool area make for a homey feel. Amenities aren't over the top but have all the basics covered (common area with free coffee/WiFi, outdoor pool/grill area, small gym.) Property management is very responsive. Only drawback is thin walls. Great option for those looking for a nice place that's a little cheaper (and has more basic amenities) that some of the other newer Evanston buildings.

Reserve isn't the new complex in Evanston but it has been recently been remodeled (last two years) and is in great shape. The management team is also super responsive and helpful. Overall, I've been super happy at the Reserve!

My experience has been great so far - convenient location near other housing developments, a quick bike ride or walk from campus with easy access to both Metra and L trains. Also close walk to downtown Evanston. Only downside is that depending on which building you’re in you can hear the trains behind the property but it honestly hasn’t been disruptive for me.

Great rooms & price for a managed bldg. lots of Kellogg students

My apartment is one of the biggest I have seen for Kellogg students and one of the cheapest of the large buildings. I love that the Reserve is only 4 stories and is spread out - it makes it feel more like a community than a giant apartment complex. The management team is very helpful and nice and knows most of us by name! The walk to campus is easy and pretty quick - even better if you have a bike which you can keep in the heated garage for free. Only downsides are pretty thin walls and the distance to downtown is slightly farther than other buildings.

Great for dogs, lots of space, less noisy than E2 and close to it in locations.

I've greatly enjoyed The Reserve. It's not too far from campus (~20-minute walk), close to downtown (~10-minute walk) and close to other apartment buildings (~5-minute walk from E2). It's priced well in comparison to other apartment complexes and they have a good pet policy. One downside is the walls can be a little thin (apartment to apartment). It's not terrible, just if someone is blasting music, you'll be able to hear it.

We like living here because there are lots of other families, good gym facility and common room.
