I have lived in Meadowbrook for over four years now. I originally moved here to escape the dorms until I finished school and I had planned on moving once I was done, but I stayed because it is a wonderful place to live. The apartments are really nice with plenty of space. The maintenance guys are amazing and the staff has always been helpful with anything I've needed. The amenities are great. I love being able to walk across the street and go swimming or stop by the gym for a quick workout. Plus, the meadow out in front is a great place to have a picnic in the summer. One of my professors lives here too, which is sort of neat and tells you a lot about how nice it is here. My favorite thing though is just how beautiful the area is. I love walking through the neighborhood and taking pictures, especially in the spring and fall. I plan on living here as long as possible.

Sounds like Lawrence_Resident had a bad experience. Weird. . . I've lived at Meadowbrook for 7 years and never had a problem with the management. I just renewed my lease last month--I think Meadowbrook is a great place to live.

They will try to charge you pet rent. I had to take them to court to get back hundreds of dollars they tried to bill me for move out and to get money back for "pet rent." It is not legal in Lawrence to charge additional rent for pets. Don't fall for it.
