Elliot Lake Retirement Living - Elliot Lake, Ontario

Nancy

I traveled up to Elliot Lake after I saw an advertisement of their retirement community. I took a 3 hr tour of the small town with a few views of their retirement apartments than I walked around town talking to a few residents of Elliot Lake of this beautiful place. My plan is now to move up here in July 2024.

I live in one of Elliott lake retirement buildings and I am a very happy person. They have the same roles as any other apartment building. I was looking for a appointment. I was paying $1,200.00 a month plus utilities and the building was not clean. The roles are the same as any other landlord. I am paying half of what I was paying. The roles are the same as any other landlord. You can be evictions.

Without question, the best land lord anywhere. Prices are very competitive, buildings are well-maintained, other tenants are well-vetted and... the place is animal friendly!!! Great locations, maintenance/condition and service at the Office. ELRL is awesome for any young professional looking to locate to the City...

We were given very courteous attention...giving us such thorough information answering our multiple questions ...showing us floor plans and helping us choose buildings suited to our needs. Also our application was processed promptly giving us peace of mind.
By the way, this was done on a walk in visit...we didn't even have an appointment! We are very satisfied and have confidence our apartment will be our new home soon.

Horrible management skill and ability to follow through with a task. Call 3 times about an issue with one of their unit. Was told it be delt with. Month later I find out from renter they never said anything to them why the issue wasn't solved, till now by me.

I have been here for five years and it is the best place and the cheapest place out there for a two bedroom apartment. There’s nothing wrong with the one Washington crescent and the other people that are complaining about Elliot like retirement. I live in apartment in Gravenhurst and it was $1400.00 a month and no were clean and I was looking for a apartment in Barrie, Sudbury, there is no apartment's less than $1500.00 a month I shocked when I found Elliot like retirement and a two bedroom apartment was $700.00 a month. You will never find a place out there as clean and well look after.

Found a great place in town. Made two trips here from Hamilton last fall and winter. First one got me to tour the available rentals and a tour of the city. The second allowed me to secure an apartment. Only cost me $60 for 4 overnight stays at the Hampton Inn as Retirement Living puts you up there for free the first night and $30 (now $50) for the second night. City has all the basic amenities. Great place for outdoor activities, including 2 beaches on Elliot Lake itself. Just love it here.

Regarding 3 Washington Cres.

Don't be fooled by their advertising. I wouldn't dream of encouraging another person to move here after our experience. Our sister retired first so we set her up fully intending to move to Elliott Lake within 2 years when we retire.

Sadly the second week of December 2018 our sister took ill suddenly becoming hospitalized. She would not be able to return to her home so as the closest family we drove for 8 hours in order to ensure rent was paid and the required notice to vacate was given to the office. We then proceeded to sell as many items as possible, donate the rest, clean the apartment including scrubbing the bathroom spotless then the fridge and stove. We left an empty and clean apartment. I videoed the entire apartment even inside the closets thank goodness.

Today I was notified we received a letter from ELRL post-marked March 27th with a letter inside dated February 12th. It was an invoice for $409. for cleaning including an extra charge for the fridge and stove. We can't believe it. The only thing that apartment needed was a fresh paint job and that's not our responsibility.

I'm fortunate my background is in property management so I know how to protect myself. I also know the office staff produces invoices based on the word of their landlords. This landlord was unpleasant, unfriendly, unavailable and unhelpful once you could track him down. He is the lying slimeball who has reported this fallacy and submitted the bill to the office. I feel pretty confident I won't be the first complaint they've had about him.
