Very mediocre management
I have lived here my whole law school experience. The neighborhood is nice and the location is a happy medium between Boulder and Denver. Only 18 minutes away from the law school. I have had issues with the management here, they will ruin the vibe. I would suggest the neighborhood but not this complex. Also very close to the FF1 bus stop.
Arista Flats
They are quick to address maintenance concerns but the parking gate never works and the management office seems to be less organized.
Good value, responsive management but loud
I live in a one-bedroom, one bathroom in building C. The Reserve is really nice in terms of the layouts, the building amenities, and management. My one bedroom is well laid out and big with updated cabinets/finishes. Management is really responsive to any questions and maintenance issues. The gym is good and has a Peloton in it. The lounge also has free coffee and study space. It's got a lot of Kellogg people which is nice, and it's right near E2 which is really convenient. The main problem is how thin the walls are - it is as if my really loud neighbor is talking on the phone right beside me. It was okay my first year when I had quieter neighbors but my luck ran out with my new neighbor. Ultimately, I don't regret living here because I think the price for what I get has been good, but I do really wish the walls were thicker and your neighbors' level of consideration is a big part of whether you're going to like it.
The Reserve Review
Apartment has a lot of space, amenities like gym and pool are cool. Very close to the university and reasonably priced (for Evanston)
Good community
It’s a good community and I feel safe and I like the free parking and the fact that it’s an outdoor apartment, it’s not accessed from the inside of the building.
But they have problems like any other apartment complex
Nice Apartment Away from Campus
This is nice suburban complex that is about 25 minutes away from campus. A nice option if you want to get further away from the city and closer to the mountains. Family friendly.
Tons of amenities but you're going to pay for them
It is nothing fancy but it is fairly nice. Staff tries to be helpful but they seem fairly understaffed so repairs are slow. Tons of amenities like pool, gym, and social events all for free which is nice.
Pretty Solid
It’s nothing fancy and definitely a landlords special in terms of just painting over stuff but otherwise it’s good. Lots of little fees but that’s life in Denver. Close enough to school that’s it’s a quick drive (no public option) but gives you a little breathing room from school. Tons of amenities
Arista Flats
As good as can be expected in the CO housing market until the complex was sold to the new management company. Service has suffered but the apartments themselves are slightly better outfitted/larger than most comparably priced units in the area. Something like this could not be afforded by a normal person on a student budget in boulder, but is attainable for two people in Broomfield.
Great value, and beautiful apartment but walls are thin
We love our apartment - new floors, appliances, lots of space and great price for it. Still a good amount of amenities (pool, outdoor fireplace, gym, fireplace and parking) but MUCH better price than other complexes.
Only complaint is that our walls are SUPER thin and we've had a lot of issues with upstairs neighbors being too loud.
Mostly Great but Thin Walls
The units are nice, and the price is good relative to most of the high-rises. Amenities are nice, and the large property is great for pet owners. We really like it, except the walls are extremely thin. We hear every footstep our upstairs neighbor takes, and if any of our neighbors are having people over we will hear them late into the night until their guests leave. If you're a light sleeper, this may not be for you.
Solid lower cost building
Overall I am pleased with The Reserve. It is lighter on the amenities than other apartment buildings, but the apartments themselves are generally more spacious and less expensive. Shorter walk to Kellogg than other buildings (~15 minutes) but tradeoff being that it's a bit further to downtown Evanston. Walls are a bit thin and sound travels pretty easily, but nothing that can't be managed in my opinion. Overall, I would recommend if you're looking for a lower cost option to E2, Albion, or Centrum.
Kellogg 2nd year
The best ppsf, good amenities, nice staff. It's worth signing a 2-year lease to minimize rent increases. Be mindful of the room selection whether it gets a lot of natural light or not will be important in the Winter.
Great experience
I have really enjoyed living at the Reserve. They recently were acquired and have new property managers that go above and beyond to make it a great experience. It's in a fantastic location and my unit is updated/relatively large for Evanston! In addition, it is pretty close to the CTA train and a nearby park.
Cheaper but loud
Cheaper than other buildings with a gym + underground parking + guest parking. But walls are incredibly thin so there's a lot of noise. Also be prepared to listen to a LOT of leaf blowing. However good layouts for 2 room apartments, good amount of space, and walk in closets.
