What a beautiful place and a great location! Well maintained grounds and very well thought out apartment layout!


By Joseph A., Mar 06, 2026 from Google

I live at Sawmill Creek in Harahan and I have been here since July of 2022. The grounds are cleaner and in better shape then they have ever been. Kerry and Jazmin do a great job keeping up the grounds The garbage area is always clean, the water features are well maintained, the pet garbage stations are emptied regularly. Maintenance has been doing a great job as well with everything from toilets to air conditioners. If there is a problem, Darold and Steve get it fixed quickly and do a quality job. The office personnel are courteous and helpful, especially Andrew. He has gone out of his way to help me several times. This place does have quite the turnover for employees, though. Literally the only one still working here that was here when I first got here is Steve in maintenance. No one else working here has been here since July of 2022. You all have a good crew now. Hopefully, they all will stay for a while. Please treat them well.

Sawmill Apartments has been a good place to live overall. The grounds are kept clean, and maintenance requests are handled in a timely manner. The neighborhood is peaceful and convenient. I want to give a special thank you to Alexa in the office. She was very professional and patient, answered all my questions clearly, and made the leasing process much easier. Her communication and support really made a difference


By AnaElise Adney, Feb 22, 2026 from Google

So far office staff has been amazing. Maintenance is keeping up with issues. It’s very clean outside typically. Rent is fair for a gated apartment complex.

I feel much more free and comfortable thank you May Jesus bless you all Amen🙏🏻❤️‍🩹💯🙏🏾


By Zuri Luxe, Aug 01, 2025 from Google

I had such a great experience working with Alexa throughout my leasing process. From the very beginning, she was professional, patient, and genuinely helpful. She answered all of my questions promptly and made sure I fully understood everything before moving forward. Alexa went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth and stress-free. She was always friendly, respectful, and easy to talk to, which made me feel comfortable and confident in my decision. I truly appreciate her dedication and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a new place to call home!

Sherri and her AWESOME Staff are very WARM, FRIENDLY and Accommodating! I TRULY had a GREAT experience! I hope to make SAWMILL CREEK my future home!


By Ashley Loetzerich, Jul 15, 2024 from Google

Apartments are nice Relatively safe but my car has been broken into along with others. Office ladies are super sweet and accommodating. Maintenance will fix things when broken.


By Mallory Bogardus, Jul 15, 2024 from Google

Great staff with great communication!


By Mary Chuter, May 16, 2024 from Google

I went and started looking for my new home a month and a half before my move. I looked at 13 different properties. Narrowed down to six, then to 2, and then made my decision. From the moment I walked in the first time viewing the apartment I was interested in, it felt like home. Christina, and Juliet, helped me through any question that I had, or concern that I had. They answered it quickly and truthfully. When you’re looking for your next home, you want it to feel like HOME. This definitely was the case for me. On move-in day, I had six neighbors introduced themselves to me, Asked me which apartment I moved into, and Told me if I needed anything to let them know. You NEVER see that anymore! From the ladies in the front office, to the gentleman that empties the trash receptacles, and the maintenance that needed to be tweaked when I first moved in….THANK YOU! I wish I could give this review 10 stars!!


By Wayne Christian, May 08, 2024 from Google

Been here for over 9 years. 4.5 years the first time till my job relocated me. As soon as I was able to get back to Harahan I moved back to Sawmill Creek. Repairs after Hurricane Ida were corrected ASAP. Since then there have been improvements in management and got a lot better. If I need repairs, they get done promptly. I recommend this apartment community to everyone. It feels like home.

Love everything about this place, the location is great, the staff is courteous and professional, and the place is a great size for the price!


By dylan morris, Feb 03, 2024 from Google

Juliette is so amazingly helpful and made my move in easy and comfortable!


By Cilver Armstrong, Jan 08, 2024 from Google

I have lived here for 10 years and there is a reason I have been here that long. The apartments are very spacious. I have been able to raise both my son's here who are now teenagers. The landscape is beautiful and it sits back in a secluded area at the end of the road...yet it is very close to anything you could need...gas stations ..restaurants...shopping and even Walmart. The property manager Adrian and the office staff are the best we have had in all these years. Everytime I have an issue it is fixed immediately. They are super friendly and will go out of their way to do what they can for you. The apartments even have fireplaces and 2 swimming pools that are very well kept. Just recently I have received new floors, new carpets, new countertops, and even brand new appliances when the old ones broke. Would highly recommend this complex to anyone looking for more room that can't buy their own house!!!


By Taira boulton, Oct 18, 2023 from Google

I love my new townhouse! It was clean and had brand new carpet! My maintenance requests were fixed right away which I appreciate!


By michele dawson, Oct 05, 2023 from Google

The new group of ladies have been the first set of people to acknowledge and respond to outstanding issues I've tried to resolve for 3+ years. These women deserve praise, accolades, and merit for genuinely caring about us as residents. I look forward to working with this group for a good while.

By Racquel Charles, Jan 13, 2023 from Google

Just move in and so far so good the people in the office is so nice and helpful Jessica is great she help me with my move and didn’t have a problem answering any of my questions


By anh le, Jan 09, 2023 from Google

I lived at Sawmill Creek and my experiences here aren't too badd. The office and maintenance staff will always try to help out as best as they can. I totally understand that there is a shortage of maintenance personnel but with a little patience & understanding Sawmill Creek is a pretty nice to live.


By Toni Dumas, Dec 21, 2022 from Google

Haven’t moved in yet, but Adrienne is amazing! She went out of her way to show us all the apartments that are available, and the weather was horrible. The apartments we viewed were very clean and up to date. The lawn and plants around the apartment are so up kept I was shocked!


By Malik Lewis, Dec 12, 2022 from Google

Love the new apartment a lot of space
