Overall Review of Reserve at Auburn
caveat
7 reviews mention this
Reaching office support is hit-or-miss
Several residents describe trouble getting answers from management when issues come up.
A recurring concern is communication: residents mention nobody returning calls, managers rarely being available, and difficulty getting clarity on important matters. Some reviews also describe unresolved items like deposits, notices, and requests continuing after promises. A few residents do report smoother experiences with newer office staff or specific team members, but the responsiveness issues still show up often in the feedback.

Pool and spa availability disappoints
Multiple reviews say amenities like the pool and hot tub are frequently unavailable.
Residents mention that the pool and hot tub were not open as promised, stayed closed for long stretches, or limited access even when residents were expecting to use them. Some reviews also point to other amenities being closed or not working, adding to the feeling that listed features don’t match day-to-day use. Not everyone is negative—there are also reviews that say the pool was clean and useable—but closures are a repeated theme.
