Great building in a great school district. Everyone is very nice and willing to help. During summer the pool area is incredible so is the barbecue. Good gym. To make it ideal will be great to have place for kids to play like basketball court, playground or even a tennis court

My pup and I moved to The Island the end of August and could not be happier. Having the trail to walk every day has been both convenient and great exercise for both of us. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Looking forward to a great year!

Moved in at the Island Residences last week after my parents had loved here for a year and I absolutely love it so far. Nice amenities, quiet, and a great community!

Everything is great, staff is fantastic and welcoming . Our move in couldn't have been easier. Everything was ready in the apartment when we arrived. We feel that you value us as tenants

Moved from a condo in downsizing but wanting to stay in Minnetonka. I’ve lived at the Island for 2.75 years and it is conveniently close to my job and all the amenities in need! 🥰!!

World's slowest elevators. Management does absolutely nothing but make excuses and be on their phones. The hallways and elevators smell awful.

Great building, nice walking paths and easy access to trails. Residents are all really nice. The building can't seem to figure out how to deal with trash and recycling - this issue has been going on since we moved in. The trash at this moment is backed up into the first floor and can be smelled down the first floor hallway. Parking level frequently smells pretty horrible. Have never had a noise issue until recently. Large family living above us and the noise is pretty intolerable and we won't be staying if this continues.

Love the Islands but have had trouble with getting my packages. Also many people don’t care to follow instructions on garbage or pets so that isn’t the property fault but I feel there should be bigger penalties.

Very pleased & impressed with the Island apartments. The appliances & apartment features were clean, well-maintained & of high quality. The apartment was large & comfortable. I especially appreciated the carpeted bedrooms, the large windows & the island counter. The apartment living room, kitchen & hallway were quite dark when the lights weren't on, due to the apartment's rectangular shape. The lobby, gym, pool, garage & dog spa were all nice amenities. I did wish the gym had more mat space & an upright bike. My favorite part of the place was the surrounding trail. The Island could be improved by making staff more available in the office during regular hours; by adding a dog play area; by offering a compost program; & by improving the guest parking procedure to avoid cars being parked there for long periods of time.

Best place! Conveniently located, somewhat secluded, but with easy access everywhere, and management is always extremely responsive and helpful. Love it here!

Great place to live. But dog are an issue. Majority of good staff leaving not a feeling good about that. Carpets and elevators always dirty. More chairs needed at pool.

Enjoyed the move in process. Leasing team was very helpful in storing my goods for a few days before move in. Very good experience. Would recommend the Island.

It has been good experience so far and the amenities are good. However, need the dog waste station which is 5 feet from my door far away from the building. Hope it’s taken care of soon.

I'm just starting out at The Island and cannot be happier with my experience so far. Steven and Samatha (in the office) have both been amazing, They've answered all of my questions and made the initial lease process super easy. I look forward to moving in soon.

I will be a resident beginning September 30, 2019. Although I can’t speak to living there yet, I can say the leasing staff has been very helpful and kind during the application process.

The Island is a wonderful and quiet place to live. Beautiful walking path, gym, pool and extremely nice staff. I have loved living here but the rent is getting higher and I am not sure it truly holds the value. Otherwise, I highly recommend!

I like the location and the new apartment, widows, fixtures, etc. I love the pool area and community room but we need more lounge chairs around the pool.

Beautiful area in a quiet building with nice residents. Management gives frequent updates on building maintenance and other apartment building scheduled events..

The Island Residences is a great place to live. The staff is extremely friendly and very professional. We have had one minor maintenance request and it was handled promptly.

Everything was perfect. Residents and employees are so nice. Waking trails are groomed and clean. Free coffee on the lobby is a great perk. Dog lovers!!!

It is a very quiet place to live. I enjoy all of the amenities! The one thing that I would like to see is less dog poop out in the grass or along the pathway.
