The apartment complex Four Lakes of Clearwater has a decent but not exceptional living experience. The convenience of being less than two miles from the residents' previous residence is a positive aspect. However, the units feel cramped, with small bedrooms and a limited kitchen area. The "master" bedroom is particularly tight, making it difficult to fit a king-sized bed and ensuring that the door cannot fully close. The kitchen lacks counter space and storage, which can be a challenge.The complex has a monopoly on cable and internet services, forcing residents to rely on Spectrum, which is expensive and has subpar service. This lack of choice is a significant drawback for residents who value reliable and affordable connectivity. Financially, the experience has been less than ideal, with the quoted rent being higher than the actual cost after moving in. The complex charges additional fees for services like valet trash, water, and community utility costs, which quickly add up.The maintenance team is friendly, but their approach to fixing issues is often superficial, indicating a lack of dedicated time and resources to properly address problems. The bathroom ceiling has had recurring issues since moving in, with the maintenance team only spackling over the problem rather than performing thorough repairs. Considering the high costs, the small living space, and the restricted options for utility providers, Four Lakes of Clearwater does not offer enough value to justify the price or stand out among nearby competitors.
