55+ park . I'm giving 5 stars just so as many people can see this as possible. I review many places for Maps, but this one is personal to me. I spoke with several residents that live in the community, and not a single member of that community had anything nice ti say about the managment of Equity Lifestyle Properties. They spoke of no communication from the office, or sales staff. That the corporate offices were just as bad. No answer, you had to leave a message and no one called you back. So i decided to see if in fact i had the same experience. I called corporate offices of ELS at least 20 times , every time it was no human answering, and i left many many messages with no response. It makes me wonder if an emergency should arise what would happen. The office staff, seems to hide inside, without answering the door. Even though i saw her park and go inside. The residents told me its always like that. The dock is in disrepair, leaving the residents having to walk out with orange cones to stop them from walking in the water instead of safety handrails. The tempory manager there, does not come out to speak to you. The sales girl has to go ask or email someone to get an answer for every question..... Come on ELS doesn't the residents deserve better than shoddy service like this? The parking for each trailer is almost ridiculous... barely parking for one car... conclusion...pretty area, horrible customer service and residents deserve better. Their are so many residents putting their home up for sale, doesn't it make you wonder why? I went to Grand Island to look a home for rent there, applied , and I was told 3 times by Judy, that i was approved. Infact, she and the manager took my deposit of $1099.00, and was told i could have the keys on Tuesday of that week. So on Tuesday i drove there 1 1/2 hours with my car loaded down to get the keys ,as promised, and Judy isnt answering any text messages, until i told her i was setting outside waiting to get the keys, to find out f i wasnt getting the house.. but they didnt give me my money back that day. I had to go home with my car still loaded down and i had to drive back again to get my money they took and held for the deposit. Doesnt applying, and accepting money for a rental constitute a legal contract? I have cancer and that was the last thing i needed. And the real kicker.... i currently live in an ELS park. I also do alot of work for the community, like i volunteered to do a faux finish on the community room counters, as they had deteriorated and needed repair. At no cost to the park i did the counters. Look at the photos. Please. I was worth having in the community, Grand Island team , was cruel , treating me like a yo-yo, accepting my security deposit, letting me come there with my vehicle loaded up, and telling me i could have the keys just to tell me their is a mistake.... what kind of people are you???

This is a quiet senior community nestled on Lake Yale. The residents are very respectful and friendly. The upgraded clubhouse overlooks the lake and they have lots of planned social activities. If you are looking for a waterfront community with a nice marina, this one fits the bill.

Place is going down hill. They are raising the rent and forcing people to move. They charge for amenities that you can't use i.e. boat ramp and dock was damaged during the hurricane and us still not useable. They have some men living there that stalk the women and the office does nothing to protect the safety of the residences. Have had mischief done to people's property. Do not recommend.
