Mequon Trail Townhomes

I cannot recommend renting at Mequon Trail Townhomes.I recently rented a townhome there for six months. Upon signing the lease, I was guilted and upsold into signing a one year lease even though I wanted a six month lease because the agent felt it would be too much work to rewrite the lease.All of the plumbing fixtures are old and dated. The shower in my unit squeaked constantly because it was a cheap drop in that was installing incorrectly. The faucet in the downstairs half bath was so caked with calcium that it only trickled at full turn on. Cabinets and countertops in most units are dated, and the ones that have been updated have been done inexpensively with cheap materials.In the unit I rented, I could not even open the dishwasher and the cabinet next to it without re-installing the dishwasher properly myself. The units are not energy efficient. Their are large gaps in the insulation by all of the doors that cause drafts in the winter months. The windows are cheap single pane. I also had to pay a facility fee to use the pool and recreation center. I rented in September 2017. The pool closed the day I rented. One month later the recreation center closed for six months for renovations. How convenient. I got to pay for something I never used.I worked a temporary job and it ended abruptly. I was forced to break that one year lease that I never wanted. That is a costly mistake. First it will cost you two months rent in the form of notice, even if you have to move. Then it will cost you another two months in a lease termination fee. So, if you rent one of their $1600/mo townhomes (way overpriced - look over in Menomonee Falls) and you have to break the lease, get ready to fork over $6400. And no they won't work with you.Yes, I am a disgruntled former resident who tried very hard to work with this management. They aren't bad townhomes, but there are better buys out there if you just look a little bit more.

Great townhouses. Moved in several months ago and we are thrilled with the amenities and especially the office staff and the timely maintenance crew. They are all awesome and do a great job!!!! Overall, I would rate the office staff and their excellent maintenance men a A+. We are thrilled that we chose Mequon Trail townhomes to live in. We will be here for a long time. We are in our 70's with a small pet and love it here....

Comfortable, peaceful and easy.

It is good for the most part and I have enjoyed living there for over 10 years. Just need to keep the outside up better and STOP raising the rent on good tenants every year. Trash cans need to be put back inside the garage when finished to make the property look cleaner and well kept.

It feels more like a home rather than an apartment
