School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

If you like disrespect, insects and inconvenience; you should live here!

You pay a lot of money for rent; but it's overpriced and service is hit and miss. I have lived here a few years. And with blessings, this will be my last year. Our dryer broke several weeks ago. They gave us access to another building to use a communtiy dryer. i have to go up and down steps; in the heat and walk a distance from my unit. They hide from confrontation, and won't allow you to contact Westminster Property Managment because they fear repercussion's even more than confrontations. Sadly, they prove that common sense, isn't common. Additionally, there are constant plumbing problems. Avoid the annoyance and avoid properties managed by Westminster.

Great Service!

The staff is great and works well with their tenants. Spencer is one of most efficient and reliable staff members when any type of maintenance is needed. These apartments have a great environment to feel welcomed and at peace.

Horrible

The worst customer service I have ever received. They never answer the phone, lack of communication with everyone, and the leasing team is extremely lackadaisical.

THE TRUTH

DO NOT LET THE PICTURES OF THIS PLACE FOOL YOU. Yes, it may look "remodeled" but once you actually get to your apartment, everything has been poorly redone. Things not put together all the way or these "brand new" appliances not functioning properly. Then if you have issues with neighbors and go to the leasing office the will blow it off. For instance, my time here I was a pregnant military wife with my soldier away. My neighbor was constantly smoking marijuana and cigarettes in her apartment. I asked them not one time or two times, but 4 times for them to get to at least stop smoking marijuana in her apartment. But no one has done anything and all they offered was to give me a different apartment but there was "no guarantee" that I will not have the same issues. It's truly ridiculous on how they couldn't offer any help but that, but at my other apartments I stayed at I knew there were "strikes" that someone could get before being evicted, so they would rather have a pregnant woman suffer than to actually do something to benefit not only me but the surrounding neighbors like the rest of the families in my section of the building They clearly do not care about the residents here. Also, my lock system on my BRAND NEW "RENOVATED" apartment was all messed up and I said something to them, did they come fix it? Of course not. If I could give this place 0 stars I will. Take your money elsewhere because this place is not worth it. Also, If you have animals be careful where you walk them because this place doesn't treat for fleas and no one cleans up after their dogs mess.

Look elsewhere...

I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. Management is terrible, and has only gotten worse under new management. They have recently "remodeled", which means slapping a coat of paint on rotten woodwork and rusted railings...all so they can jack up their prices. They will rip you off, not make requested repairs, and (to top it all off) tow your car for no reason. Please, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

Property Manager at Chesapeake Bay, Responded To This Review

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you are not able to recommend our community.

We are confident that when the renovations are complete, we will have a quality product supported by a great management and maintenance team to deliver to our residents. -The Team at Chesapeake Bay
