Apartment Review for Turtle Ridge

I looked at all the other places near where I work (across from the John Wayne Airport) and this one is the best. The prices are much better than any of the Newport area Irvine Company Properties, and the non-Irvine Company ones are dumps (Park Newport, Coronado) . The places in Costa Mesa and Santa Ana are a couple blocks from "not so nice" areas if not in them (ie higher crime, homeless people wandering, etc). <P>
The people in the leasing office are great. Some of the staff changed over the time I have lived here, but John has been there since the beginning and knows the property like the back of his hand. Ask for him to show you around. The Maintenance is awesome and friendly too. <P>
If you want to live in a huge complex, Villa Siena and Newport Bluffs, were my 2nd and 3rd choices, but I liked the prices and smaller feel of Turtle Ridge best. <P>
The parking could be better, but it gets tight sometimes because people take advantage of the ample parking to use their garages for storage. <P>
I've been here for 2 years and I have no plans on moving out any time soon. Feel free to email me or ask any of the residents when you stop in - almost every resident I have met so far loves living here too. <P>
