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 Vista Wilde Lake
Would like to see more social events and opportunities to meet other residents. Also, Mail Room elevator has been broken since May!!!! We need that elevator!

Awesome Staff and great feel of community. Its a great place to live. The commutes within the DMV region are awesome. You can get to everything
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Hello Cassandra, we are delighted to know that our team's awesome service and our great location make residing in our community a five-star experience. Your review made our day!
It alright. I wake up at least three days a week because my apartment is right above were the trash gets picked up at 4:30am. You can imagine what a shock it was the first couple of times. I wish someone would have told me. The other thing that I don’t like is when my bill is incorrect. When I moved in I brought a cashiers check for the rent and deposit. You can imagine my surprise when I received my bill the next month saying I hadn’t paid my deposit. When I called downstairs they said that it was placed under the wrong account and that is why it was showing that way I asked them to change that because I didn’t like anything that is not truthful. They didn’t. Now this month I get a bill saying I didn’t pay a lot of little fees. I called and told them I paid everything you said I owed. They said that everything arrived late that why they were not on the bill. I told them the bill should say that not something that is untrue. I don’t like that at all.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
As a team, we strive to ensure transparent communication and explain all fees clearly, Sandra, and we appreciate you sharing your concerns with our team. We would be happy to continue the conversation with you at Leasing@vistawildelake.com if you would like further explanation. Thank you.
Staff is good. Cleaning in the hall is nonexistent. I have asked for the hall carpet to be vacuumed and it hasn’t happened in more than a month. Maintenance is good.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
John, thank you for recognizing our office and maintenance teams and their efforts to care for the community. We also acknowledge your comments about our hall upkeep, and we will promptly look into this and provide a solution.

This is a quiet community. The office staff is friendly. So are the neighbors. I enjoy the convenient location. It's conveniently close to restaurants, entertainment, and shopping.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review

It is also fantastic that you feel well cared for by our team, and we look forward to continuing to provide this level of service.
My biggest complaint is the noise levels of the residents beside me and below me. The noise and decimal levels between 1:30 and 3:30am is unacceptable. I don't understand how people can be so inconsiderate. I have complained and called the authorities which helped for a day or two but they went right back at it. I am praying they change. I really like my apartment and would give this community a 4 out of 5, otherwise. My plan is to move when my lease is up! Maybe something will open up back in the other building. If not, good bye Wildelake!!
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Eunice, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble with loud neighbors. We expect all residents to abide by our noise policies, so we would like to learn more to effectively resolve this. When you have a moment, please email us at Leasing@vistawildelake.com to share some additional details. Thank you in advance for contacting us.
Nice design with a lean towards the view. I do think routine maintenance could be improved. The garage is good as is the package convenience.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
John, we adore our gorgeous views, too! Thank you for sharing your delight with us, and we appreciate your feedback about our routine maintenance. Please let us know if there is anything specific we can do to make your experience even better.

Abisola, we aim to deliver a favorable environment for our residents to thrive, so we love knowing our amenities and proximity to shops and restaurants have earned your satisfaction! It is lovely to receive your 5-star feedback, and we look forward to your continued enjoyment.
Terrible experience living here. My AC broke down multiple times, and it took them a month just to get me a portable AC. The hallway lights have been out for two months, and nothing has been done. Homeless people constantly hang out in the common areas, and the parking gate is always malfunctioning. There are so many more issues, but these are just the highlights. Avoid this place at all costs!
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Piotr, we strive to be responsive to our residents' needs, and your feedback helps us identify areas in need of attention, so thank you for your detailed comments. While we review any lighting that needs replacement, the accessibility of our common areas, and the functionality of our parking gate, please reach out to Leasing@vistawildelake.com with any lingering maintenance needs in your home. Thank you for the opportunity to be of service.
We only come part time to our apartment, but it is very convenient for us to have it. I appreciate the coffee machine in the lobby, and the maintenance team is very responsive to any requests I have made. I intend to renew my lease when it comes time.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Roger, we aim to deliver a sense of ease and luxury for our residents, so we love hearing you have benefitted from our coffee machine and that our maintenance team has been reliable and responsive to your needs. We look forward to your continued home life in our community and invite you to let us know if you need anything else!
I have enjoyed living at Vista Wilde Lake Apartments. The staff is friendly and helpful, the amenities are easily accessible and always clean. Specifically the gym is large and has a great variety of equipment.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Jennifer, our goal is to provide our residents with the utmost comfort and convenience, so we are overjoyed knowing you are pleased with the exceptional services of our team and have benefitted from our accessible amenities! We hope you continue to enjoy the use of our gym, and we look forward to your continued residency.
I just moved in, and I’m already loving it here! The leasing process was smooth, and the staff welcomed me from day one. The apartment is spacious and clean, and the community amenities are fantastic. The location is excellent.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Peter, we're glad your amazing new home is all you hoped it would be and that our team eased your move-in experience. It's wonderful to have you as a new resident, and we hope you'll get in touch if we can do anything for you.
My experience with the staff has been extremely unpleasant, for being a tenant for a number of years. I would not recommend this Apartment complex to anyone at this point.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Andrea, we greatly appreciate your constructive feedback as a long-term resident and are sorry to learn you have not felt at ease working with our team. Providing a comforting and accommodating atmosphere for our residents to thrive is essential, so learning more about your experience is important to us. We invite you to contact us at Leasing@vistawildelake.com so we may address your concerns and work to make your experience more enjoyable. We are grateful for your time.
Sadly we just moved in 3 days ago. The apartment was not clean. The humidity is 70% with bath towels unable to dry. The light bulbs in our closet are dead. The worst part is there are fleas!!! Someone came from our complex today to review our apartment and note the problems. It’s a LOT of money to be dealing with this. We are stuck for 10 months awaiting our new house. Very very very disappointed. Wish I could move. Regret our decision to move here.
I have been living at this apartment for more than 5 years now and it has been great. The amenities and neighbors are very nice. There are no major issues.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Your kind words about our community mean so much to us as a more than 5-year resident! It is lovely that you have had positive encounters with your neighbors and that our amenities have enhanced your living situation. We look forward to your continued residency!
The apartment is in a nice, calm area. It is pretty centrally located from both Baltimore and DC. The building itself could use some updating, overall (i.e. hallway carpets, cabinetry, etc). Maintenance is quick and responsive.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
Amara, we are delighted to hear you enjoy our responsive maintenance team, peaceful environment, and convenient location. At our community, we are always striving for five stars. Please let us know if there's anything we can do to improve your experience.

Amenities are pretty nice, but apartment is extremely loud. Hear bass boosted music blasting from outside or in almost every day. Can hear the bus going by. Can hear the neighbors flush the toilet.
Property Manager at Vista Wilde Lake, Responded To This Review
We are glad you enjoy our top-notch amenities. However, we are sorry if you are experiencing issues with loud neighbors.

Thank you for visiting our community! It's heart-warming to hear how helpful and kind our team was to you. If you have any questions about our community or leasing with us, please let us know!
They advertise this location as a smoke-free property, you can't smoke in the apartment or on the property. Well, that sounds good, however, they do not enforce any of their smoking rules AT ALL. The hallways smell like weed EVERY single day. It's AWFUL and embarrassing to bring company over for a visit.
