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.

Property Ratings at The Colony at the Oaks
If I could have gave ZERO!!! I came here in April to rent an apartment. I was shown the model and I was told that my apartment would look just like the model. I asked if the doors, countertops, kitchen cabinets closet doors wound all be the same. I was assured that everything down to new carpet in bedrooms would be replaced. I explained that I couldn’t move until May 15, she said that was no problem. I apply and paid the $200 to hold the apartment. I was approved and then received a email that I had to sign the lease before 10 days of lease being produced or pay another $50. This was April 27 and I was not moving in until May 14 nor have I seen the apartment I am renting only a model. I told her I wanted to see the apartment before I sign lease. She said oh it looks just like the model I showed you, no worries. Someone is still living in the unit until first of the month. On Thursday May 12th I came to office with a check and asked to see or could I get the keys earlier to the unit. I was told they were not finished fixing, and cleaning. I had to wait until Saturday 14th my move in date. On Saturday morning at 10am when office open I was to pick up keys. I was still at Uhaul picking up my truck. She calls me at 10:10am asking when I was coming to pick up my keys. That she wasn’t going to be in office all day and was leaving. I told her that I’m on my way. I get keys and she makes me sign a BLANK move in checklist without seeing the unit. Which at first I refused to sign but she wouldn’t give me the keys otherwise. I get keys and go in smh the bedroom carpets are wet, the doors are not same and have holes, chipped paint, there’s pet hair everywhere, yellow stains on baseboards and doors frames from pet urine. The cabinets in kitchen are damaged, have holes, don’t match, won’t close all the way. The dishwasher isn’t mounted in and fell out on me. The stove is filthy with used drip pans, pet hair stuck to bottom. The closet doors are scratched, dented, chipped and pet hair was painted to most of them. The outlets won’t hold plugs. The bathrooms don’t have safety outlets. The tub and toilet are slow draining and clogged. There’s yellow stains in and cat litter in bathroom closet. I stopped my movers and moved my bed and some boxes, clothes, and bathroom cabinet in, no furniture. I couldn’t get on the wifi and when I called Spectrum told me that the last resident is still in ResidentPortal. I took pictures and went to lease office. No one called me, or came
I’m so impressed by this place!! Apartments are gorgeous and wonderfully laid out and don’t even get me started on their amenities! I can’t wait to end my nights in the zen room :) Cant forget to mention the wonderful management team! So kind and informative, you can tell they love their jobs.
*Supposed to get cable in October - “Gotta postpone till MARCH” * Something messes up in apartment or building that SHOULDN’T be ignored -“Oh no, we’ll send someone right out!” (Weeks late) * Adds washer/dryer hookups in a small closet -“Enjoy this toxic smell of horrible STRONG glue, without any accommodation to go somewhere else!”
AC went out for the third time since I have lived here. Called the office at 3pm to report the issue. Said someone would come right out. Called again right before 5pm and another worker told me the issue hadn’t been reported. Tried to call maintenance, who didn’t answer (way to go 24 hour maintenance availability ). Left me on hold and only could tell me she would keep calling maintenance. These new owners are not what they said they would be. Very disappointed.
This place just got new owners and even though they are remodeling the place it's a Rip off. Use caution because whatever your rent is add anywhere from $50 to $100 per month as they make you pay for water, garbage, pest control and admin fees. Seriously go else where I'm outta here when my lease is up.
My apartment bathroom sink is always stopping up this is the 4th time I’ve had to call and have them come unclog the drain this year! I called almost 2 weeks ago and my sinks are still clogged I went to the leasing office 2 days ago and asked them why no one has came out. But I see plenty of people out working and renovating the new apartments EVERYDAY as if they don’t care about the older ones. It’s sad I can’t even use my bathroom sink as I should!
I have lived here for 3 years and I have to say its the best apartment I have lived in. The landlord owns several of the units and personally takes care of most maintenance issues. If he cant resolve it he will find someone that can within a couple days. I even drop my rent at his personal home. The only thing that I have to complain about is the area, its a lower income area surrounding it, but the apartments are private and much nicer. Its loud due to its proximity to the road and a bus stop. All new appliances, very nice cabinets, great layout, great landlord. The only reason I am moving is that I no longer need a 2 bedroom place.
Pros Big apartment Good neighborhood Low cost Cons Landlords don't take care of property Things stay broke
I've only lived here for about a month and I could not be happier with my choice. The community is quite and well kept up. I had an issue with my doorknob and the office staff got it fixed for me within 15 minutes of me telling them about the issue. For the price, you won't find a better deal. The price attracted me to this community and it has not disappointed. The office and maintenance staff are helpful and friendly. If you are looking for a reasonably priced place to live in Lexington, you should check out Lighthouse Square before you make your final decision!
You wont' find a better place for the money. Clean, quiet, well-maintained and everyone so friendly. I've never seen an apartment complex with so many people who have lived there YEARS. They don't wish to leave. the staff is ABOVE great! The location is fantastic.
