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 Kaitlyn, Jul 19, 2024 from Google

The entire application process was a breeze, the lady that rented out to me, Juliette, is an Angel. She is very responsive and make sure things get done properly and swiftly. The property itself is very beautiful and is well kept. The maintenance team is very fast acting. They have food trucks once a month which I find very cute and convenient. The pools are always clean and even the community has a nice vibe to it. Thank you juliette for getting me into this beautiful place.


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.

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 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


By The Gabriel and Nicholas Show, Nov 07, 2022 from Google

We are currently in the process of moving into Sawmill and so far we've had a wonderful experience. Adrienne has been so helpful and has been such a pleasure to work with especially at this trying time for our family. Thank you to everyone over there that has and will be helping us in the upcoming future.


By Gretchen Sallinger, Oct 26, 2022 from Google

Alexis is AWESOME! She is the best apartment manager ever, and I have lived here for seven years. I reported a broken stair and it was replaced before I got home from work. Within seven hours it was fixed. I’m constantly amazed at her efficiency and understanding always having time for me even though I know she is busy. I love living here at Sawmill Creek! The manager sets the tone, and it is good here. Her entire staff is way above average! I recommend this place to anyone looking for a safe comfortable place for your family to live.


By Errol Olivier, Aug 16, 2022 from Google

The apartments are a bit old, but they are well maintained. We arrived to a freshly painted, newly carpeted apartment. They are spacious with lots of storage. The rental costs are very reasonable. The staff are friendly, helpful, responsive, and definitely pet friendly. Other positives are proximity to the airport, Ochsner Medical Center, Airline Highway, and the Earhart Expressway. If I need an apartment again in the area, in the future, I will definitely look to Sawmill Creek.

Just moved in. But so far so great. The apartment is very peaceful. The neighbors are very nice. Management was very helpful in regards to my move in. Kirstie helped me thoroughly with my move in process and she was also very patient with me and kind. Besides the old appliances, the apartment is very nice and spacious.
