Forum at Denton Station, denton-tx

the apartment staff was nice and maintence was helpful but..this complex is DISGUSTING. do not believe any 5 star reviews from this place as they bribe people to rate them 5 stars. Our apartment was dirty upon move in with a roach in our refrigerator and mold. Amenities doesn’t work, hot tub is GREEN and never hot, pool is full of sand, dirt, and leaves, gym equipment is broken and dirty with no ac, basketball court has no ac, broken lights, a leaning rim and the floors are super dusty which makes it unplayable, trash EVERYWHERE around the complex that never gets picked up, pigeon poo everywhere, the outside floors and stairs are always nasty and filthy which is never cleaned, trash valet always leaves trash bags because they don’t feel like picking it up even when it’s not leaking or too heavy, rats are running around the apartment complex, and it seems like everyone in this complex suffers from roaches including my apartment, and on top of all of this, forum constantly bothers us about renewing even after telling them multiple times i do NOT want to renew. Forum claims that they make our experience their number 1 priority and that their team is very serious about the cleanliness of the apartment but it is a complete lie. The only thing they worry about is the landscaping of the entrance to the apartment and the leasing office when the rest of the apartment is a dump. Also, most of the pictures they use for their gallery on the website to show what the apartment looks like are old pictures.

This apartment is the worst apartment complex I have ever stayed in. I lived there 4 years ago and they tried to charge me almost $400 for a couch cleaning fee. The couch was filthy when I moved in (burn holes, stains) and I sent pictures to them that I took before moving and they never sent any other communication. Fast forward to 2026, a bill collector is saying I still owe after disputing this charge 3 years ago. Management is horrible. All they want is money without giving residents anything good. The gate was always broken when I lived there and I never felt safe. I remember a maintenance worker coming in at night and I didn’t receive any heads up. They tow 24/7. The pool was always dirty. I eventually moved into the 1451 townhomes that were so much better!

Please do not live here! These five star reviews are not genuine, they give you tours and snacks in exchange for good reviews. Staff is dishonest and management stacks unnecessary fees on everything. Upon moving in my apartment was dirty but they expect you to have a professional cleaning when you move out or else they’ll charge you hundreds of dollars in move out fees. If you try to dispute a charge good luck because apparently you need to take photographs of you turning your keys in to avoid getting a fee stating that you didn’t turn your keys in. They charged me $50 for missing keys even though I only received a single key when moving in. When I turned my keys in the front desk staff lady told me I was fine to move out. She obviously lied because I still received a charge that I could not dispute.There are also roaches and the apartment itself smelled bad. Roaches would crawl out of the sink and they were big!! Even though I kept my apartment very clean and I have an immense fear of roaches I still saw some. The stairs were filthy and they do not clean them. I would not recommend living here to anyone. They charged me $825 a month for a trashy apartment. You can live somewhere better for way cheaper.

I genuinely would NOT recommend living here. I had so many issues during my time at this apartment complex and I’m extremely glad I moved out. First of all, ROACHES. They would literally come out of the vents and pipes. It didn’t matter how clean I kept my apartment, they continued to be an issue. Maintenance was probably one of the worst parts of living here. Things would either not get fixed properly or you would have to deal with the same problem over and over again. I had a LEAK COMING FROM MY CEILING FOR THREE WEEKS. Maintenance came multiple times to “fix” it, yet it kept leaking. Eventually I literally just had a bucket sitting in the middle of my kitchen floor collecting water coming from the ceiling because apparently that was more effective than their repairs. I also had horrible experiences with maintenance entering the apartment. They would knock ONE TIME and if you didn’t hear them, they would unlock the door and come inside. There were times I was home alone, including situations where I could have been showering or changing, and knowing someone could just unlock my door and walk in made me extremely uncomfortable. Some of the maintenance staff were also extremely rude. Management was constantly changing rules and finding different things to charge for. The amount of random fees and overcharging became ridiculous. They also apparently think it’s acceptable for you to find out you’re getting a new roommate WHEN THE PERSON SHOWS UP READY TO MOVE IN. I had people assigned to my apartment without me being properly notified beforehand. Imagine being at home and suddenly someone you don’t know shows up with their belongings because they’ve been assigned to live in your apartment. And PLEASE don’t let the amenities they show you during the tour convince you. The jacuzzi was literally always filthy. The pool seemed to magically be clean when they were giving tours to potential residents, but actually living there was a completely different experience. The gym isn’t much better either. Machines were constantly broken, and even the AC in the gym was broken. Trying to work out in a hot gym with half the equipment not working is ridiculous, especially when these are amenities residents are paying for. My biggest advice to anyone considering this place: DO NOT judge it based on the tour. Talk to people who actually live there. Between the roaches coming through the vents and pipes, maintenance not properly fixing things, workers letting themselves into your apartment, surprise roommates, constantly changing rules, ridiculous charges, dirty amenities, broken gym equipment, and broken AC, I would NEVER choose to live here again. Moving out was genuinely the best amenity they offered.

VERY DISAPPOINTING. I rented this apartment for my daughter. The model apartments are very nice compared to the unit actually provided. They do not show you that unit until it’s time to move in and of course, it’s too late to run away. The place was shoddy at best. I’m pretty sure the security gate only worked one day the entire time my daughter was there - always broken, so don’t rely on that for any security measure - it’s non-existent. Do you know what a “fee” is? Well, you will by the time you pay your first month's rent - literally a fee for everything and the scam utility company they own to pay your bills is ridiculous- just another fee. There’s a reason we did not renew the lease and ran away as fast as we could! There are literally hundreds of other places closer to the school and far less expensive.
