Ive lived in quite a few campus apartments during my college years and Aggie Village proved to be a very adequate experience overall.The apartments themselves are nice enough however it seems as though no matter which one you move into, theres always some evidence of the previous tenant. Whether that be poorly covered markings on the walls, somewhat sketchy furniture, or beaten up appliances, theres always something but its never so bad that Id feel the need to really complain about it. Aesthetically they match whatever color theme that particular building is which is pretty cute. Id recommend hanging up some posters or paintings because without wall decorations they kind of look like hotel rooms.What really surprised me was just how small the apartments are. I lived in a unit in the Walnut building that was shared with another person and there seemed to be absolutely no space to store anything. The bathroom was tiny (the bathrooms here only had a stand-up shower and a toilet), the kitchen had *maybe* two cabinets to store food in and a large shelf above the sink, and the common spaces were way too small for the amount of furniture they stuff in there. The bedrooms were really small as well with barely enough room for a desk and a bed. And easily the tiniest closets Ive ever seen. For about $800 a month, you dont really get a whole lot.With that being said, I can honestly say I never really had a negative experience here. The complex is close to campus. There are no crazy guest policies. Maintenance is relatively prompt. (Although I had to get paint patched on my wall and it was done pretty poorly.) The appliances are pretty good. (A microwave would have been nice but the in-unit laundry is a HUGE bonus.) The mail can be pretty slow but thats such a small thing its barely worth mentioning. Overall not a bad experience and if you need a place to park they have that but its pretty pricey.If its your first time living away from home and you dont really know how to live by yourself, these apartments are great because everything is included, theyre conveniently placed on campus, theyre quiet, and not super dorm-y.

When I moved in the apartment was dirty: shower was slimy and covered in soap scum, living room covered in actual dirt, cereal under the cabinets, and stains on the sofa. The 3 or so floor outlets in the living room are also broken so owning a TV is a no go. The bathroom has a giant water stain on the wall, probably growing some sort of mold behind it. Toilets clog very easily. Very little parking thats far away from the unit. Staff do not get in touch on the monthly basis they say they will. Very little kitchen storage, not nearly enough to share with roommates. Dishwasher is rusted on the inside. Prices increase each year, but quality goes down.However, they are close to campus and have nice windows in the corner units. Hallways are relatively quiet and bathroom storage is adequate.

Lived here my whole time at CSU following the dorms. Apartments are the biggest or most luxurious but the proximity to campus and the stadium is unbeatable. In addition to this the maintenance team is top notch and the flexible leases are awesome. Nothing to complain about, priced similarly to other luxury complexes.

I have only been in a Lodgepole apartment for less then a semester so far but I am pretty satisfied with my experience. My only real complaint is the fact that the carpets are the same as the ones in classrooms so they are difficult to vacuum. Over all, these apartments are more like large dorms than true apartments but it is far better than being in the dorms.

Expensive, but the staff treat you well and its on campus. You will NOT get parking for your car though. (Staff will say theres parking, its too competitive and expensive to get the pass.)Its clean. Maitenance is extremely prompt. Furnishings were nice.The kitchen was a joke, no where near enough cupboards to store cookware, dishes, and food. We bought a cabinet to use as a pantry. (Also, no linen closet. Always seemed weird.)They have a lot of staff policing and (poorly managed) events, which makes it feel like a fancy dorm environment. Could be a good or bad thing depending on your preference.I enjoyed my time here (1.5 years).

Like having your doorlock brake on you multiple times though out the semester in the middle of the night with nowway to get back in. And then have staff refuse to edmit that it’s broken. Aggie’s the place for you!

I lived in a studio apartment in Aggie Village Cottonwood for 2 years.Tl;dr: As close to campus as you can get, but way overpriced and riddled with flaws.Front Desk:Multiple times, my packages were placed in the wrong mailbox; instead of going to check where it was misplaced, the desk told me to wait until someone turned it into them. It often felt like CC’s and desk workers were annoyed at being asked to do things related to the job, and they would get defensive quickly.Events:The big events that Apartment Life pushed were not well planned. I attended a film screening at the end of the year. They promised burgers when the film started, then failed to get the grill to start. I was in line for food for forty minutes, and theyd only bought three bags of chips for over fifty people, so those didnt last long. They started the movie even though people were still in line, and they got angry and defensive when people asked how long the food would take. It was frustrating and took the fun out of the event, making me wish Id done something else, which defeated the event’s purpose of building community in the apartments.Parking:There is not nearly enough parking for all residents, and permits are ridiculously overpriced. The university says its fine because residents can buy permits for other lots and take the bus to the apartments, disregarding the fact that the bus does not run at night or on holidays. Moreover, no one should have to pay hundreds of dollars to park a mile away from their home and then still have to take the bus the rest of the way.On game days its a nightmare getting into the lot; the police are supposed to know how to direct the traffic, but sometimes they end up blocking the alternative entrances, and, when I talked to them, they seemed confused on what was supposed to be happening. It’s a highly disorganized system.Apartment:The apartments are within walking distance of class, which is great when bad weather makes driving dangerous. Apartments have more space and kitchens, unlike the dorms.I had to have faulty plugs, lights, and toilet parts replaced, and the apartment was only 2 years old. The walls were not straight, so my door did not fit perfectly into the frame. I once heard someone with construction experience mention that the buildings wouldnt last very long, so thats concerning.Online floor plans of the studio show the bed fitting into alcove, but they made them too small in Cottonwood, so the bed sticks out into the living area and takes up valuable space. The alcove has poor lighting, with the back half in total darkness unless the sun is up; lamps / string lights are recommended if you want to read in bed. The closets are incredibly cramped and small.Outlets are strangely placed. One is crammed between the bed (which is too heavy to move) and the wall, and the Ethernet cable is in the back of the closet.Studios come with a kitchen table but no desk, so the table has to pull double duty. I understand there studio is small, but it can fit a desk (a friend bought their own for their studio), and there would be more room if the bed properly fit the alcove.They turn off the A/C way too early in the year, so prepare for days when its 80+ degrees in the apartment with no relief; it also breaks down frequently, so consider buying your own fans and a space heater for the winter.While the cushioned chairs are usable now, they are of the same material of the couches in the dorms, so I know they will be worn out and unusable after a few more years of use. Considering how old the furniture in the dorms is, I doubt these chairs will be replaced regularly.Kitchen:There is very little counter/storage space; the biggest cupboard is dominated by a vent for the range, so its barely usable. They put brackets in the wall to hold the fire extinguisher right above the light switch, so Im always afraid Ill knock the extinguisher off, and the bracket is crooked.

It was a pretty nice resedential apartment except for the toilet which is clogged and have a lot of stagnant water.

Don’t live here. I’ve lived in some pretty poor apartments with some garbage landlords and this takes the cake for worst place to live, hands down.

Terrible, expensive, small, and too many rules for the price! Would never live there! There’s no covered parking even!!
