It is a wonderful place to live. I have lived here three years and the staff has always been attentive to any need. They work really hard to make everyone’s living experience the best. I wouldn’t want to live at any other complex.


By Clayton Trisler, Apr 05, 2024 from Google

Great complex! Love the area, close to shopping, work, etc. And the maintenance crew is great as well


By Christine King, Nov 09, 2023 from Google

I have lived here for almost 3 years and have had nothing but a great experience! I especially love the resident events!


By Amon Mamarth, Oct 03, 2023 from Google

Overall one of the nicer places in that area, issues are being addressed quickly. Good enough gym and pool area.


By Ariel Bearb, Sep 26, 2023 from Google

We love the area, love the people, and when we had an issue in our apartment, maintenance got on it and got the job done, plus some!!


By shijing li, Aug 13, 2022 from Google

Best place I have ever lived! This is an absolutely beautiful apartment complex with the sweetest property management --- Claudia. She has made the whole process from day 1 to the end so pleasant and everything just went super smooth. She really went out her way to ensure the residence gets the best experience and receive what they needs! This apartment is just nice both inside and out. Really worth every penny of the rent to live here! The neighbors are also very nice and sweet! In terms of safety, this is a super friendly and safe area, never felt any unease living here as a single lady. Highly recommend anyone who is looking for apartment to live in this area! Definitely the best!


By Erika McBride, Jun 25, 2022 from Google

I cannot praise you enough! I am relocating from SC and Claudia made this experience the smoothest process ever. She went out of her way my to ensure I could do all of it 9 hours away. Thank you so much for helping me and making this experience one to remember.


By Kaye smith, Feb 11, 2022 from Google

Apartments are nice ( compared to others in New Orleans) however, for the price you ( I) expect more out of 1st lake. Example gate (left drive thru and right walk up) was broke prior to Ida, walk up and drive thru was fixed January 2022, maintenance is very limited (1-2 people) I've placed request online when I paid rent 1 month and again when I paid rent the next month started submitting them online because I was tired of calling the office and them not answer. Which is the next issue they don't answer then they will say I'm sorry we were out on tour and didn't have anyone to answer but I've been outside calling with them being inside (oh, and there wasn't anyone in there with them.) Again, the apartments are nice the area is great just don't have high expectations because you will be let down.


By Deydre Medrano, Oct 13, 2021 from Google

Artesia is the best luxury building I have ever lived in. The management staff (Julie, Claudia, & Eileen) are so amazing, professional and friendly! The Maintenance and cleaning staff go above and beyond to keep the building beautiful and clean and to respond to any issues within the building immediately. Highly recommendable!


By joseph m., Oct 13, 2021 from Apartments

Great Community!!! I LOVE THIS COMMUNITY! Eileen is always so kind, and any problem I had she was sure to take care of it and keep me up to date. It’s always clean! I was always happy to show off where I lived lol! I’m sad to go but my duties take me to new adventures.


By Ashley Turcios, Oct 12, 2021 from Google
