Wow, looking at the other reviews, you would think we lived in a totally different apt complex. Although I guess if you have a bad experience you are more likely to write/complain that if you had a good experience. My husband and I lived at Millbrook for 2 years and loved it. They were the nicest looking apts in the Mark Center area and we selected an apt on the new side (combination of apts and townhouses). This side is now separately owned and renamed from the original Millbrook side. There has been a recent managment change and I have to say the new management has been slow to get up and running, notifying tenants of change, gettting up to speed on apt info etc. The previous management was wonderful.


Im not sure if the previous bad experiences took place on the other side of the complex but our half was wonderful. The location to DC, I395, Baileys Crossroads etc is great. The free shuttle to the Metro was ideal for us and is used by many many residents. They recenly upgraded to new larger shuttles to accomodate everyone.


Our apt was clean with great appliances and the few maintenance problems were always attended to very quickly and thoroughly. The grounds are beautiful and well tended in both summer and winter--great snow removal. The only complaint is the awful location of the garbage dump which is way to small for a complex of this size. We used the pool and gym and were always happy with the maintenance of these areas. We never had problems with noise from neighbors except for those who lived above us--but this comes with the territory in apt living. Parking is an issue on this side of the complex. Each apt is allowed one spot in the garage but the visitor parking is always full of residents and can be problematic.


The apt complex is near to shopping which is great. I love that I could walk to the bank, CVS, grocery store, dry cleaners, etc. This is very convenient. Another great perk was that they offered free pet care. We had a cat and they looked after her every time we traveled without any problems and this saved us lots of $$ by not having to get a pet sitter or boarding her with the vet.


Overall we had a wonderful time living at this complex. We moved out just as the new management was taking over so I cant say how things will be be in the future---THEY definatley were no where near what the other reviewers stated. Definatley take a look at this complex.
