Crestwood is a wonderful place to live. I’ve lived here 4 years and keep meaning to write a review. I read 2 negative onesclearly by the same person and can honestly say he paints an inaccurate picture. Crestwood has always been owned by the same original family. Paula has been managing Crestwood for years. The management company has changed, as companies do when they merge or get bought. The Park: It’s a mixture of 55+ and up to 20% underWashington State law. I’ve lived in an RV lot and currently a mobile home lot. As with any rental agreement, following the rules is a must. Paula is a manager that communicates clearly and directly. She communicates the OWNERS preferences. I’ve made modifications to both of my lots. I’ve made requests that have been approved and I’ve made requests that the owners have denied. When I first moved in I needed a few reminders of what my lease agreement stated as apartment living is very different than Park living. Parking: Each lot is a different size, which affects how many parking spaces on a lot. Some lots have 1,2, or 3 spaces. There are 3 different guest parking areas with ample room for parking. Fences: The exterior fence on 16th and 272nd belong to the park, the other exterior fences belong to the businesses behind the park. I learned this when I had a board broken. It did take some time for the other business to fix the board. I don’t have any interior park fences between my lots however I did have a fence built around my place that was approved by the owners. Safety: Management has no trespassing signs posted at both entrances. Other residents and management call police whenever something/someone is questionable. Police respond quickly. Landscapers: This past week I observed them meticulously blowing leaves away from my property. I’ve never had a problem with any of the landscapers. They come every other week. Neighbors: The majority of neighbors are friendly and kind. Many people walk their dogs in the park. I’ve also observed the under 55yr helping those well over 55+ that don’t have family near. There is extremely low turnover in the Park which is a reflection of many things, one of them definitely being great management.
Pathetic and worthless management here is destroying the original owners legacy! Paula couldn't manage a blade of grass! From mobile homes being worked on WITHOUT BUILDING PERMITS being posted, substandard landscaping crew who damages residents vehicles, favoritism towards HER friends, double-standard rule system, crime AND drug use growing throughout the park!!! Think twice before wanting o move in here! Now a new real estate management company, who is raising lot rents, and NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THE ENTIRE PROPERTY! The perimeter fences are falling apart, the dividing fences between rows are falling apart...the back entrance off of 16th place s. needs to be closed to provide better security. This is NOT the park of old! I would bet that all the positive reviews are from " her friends " not actual people.
We lived there for about a year; when searching for a mobile home park it was the nicest and most affordable park we've seen. The management keeps everyone accountable to the rules so that everyone can be respectful of each other in close quarters. I met many residents that have lived there for years and almost everyone is kind and looks out for each other. Even just walking my dog, neighbors I didn't know would offer me veggies from their garden! If you want somewhere peaceful and you're willing to follow the guidelines, this is the place for you!
Change the manager, get landscape personnel who ACTUALLY do their job instead of blowing things into resident's yards and do ACTUAL cleaning, guest parking is poorly situated, the managers " snitches and pets " can do whatever they want, where others whom are NOT 'HER' favorites suffer getting yelled at for trivial things and 'HER' pets get away with breaking the rules, for being a 55+ park the MANAGER lets in those whom are much younger than the required ages, the MANAGER also lies about units being sold so 'HER BUDDIES' can buy the units AND get them for MUCH CHEAPER prices than advertised, having 'HER PETS' aim their personal security cameras at others for spying purposes of 'HER' unliked residents for blackmail AND placing negative items in their files, changing to anybody OTHER THAN PHILLIPS REALESTATE company...then, and MAYBE then this would deserve a 4 star rating would be in order. The current manager will eventually destroy this park, making it open to ANY age so seniors will have 1 LESS place to live in peace and comfort, and no kids playing and screaming so they disturb those whom would like to live out the remainder of their years in comfort. It's interesting that the so-called 'manager' acts like the owner, especially when the OWNERS actually live onsite IN A HOUSE! The "manager" is thinking she's 'God Of Crestwood'. If you REALLY want to know about Crestwood Senior Mobile Home Park, you need to go talk with the residents who actually live there and NOT space #43, the manager, who rarely is actually there since she is a "manager" to 3 separate parks. Since Phillips and the owners had a meeting, things have improved some. However, someone has spilled oil/transmission oil all over the roads on the eastern most road. Now when it rains there is an oil sheen that can be seen running down the roads. The EPA should force the person with the big grey/silver 4x4 truck to clean it up at his expense.
Sister and brother-in-law have lived here for years. Current managers Matt and Paula are super friendly while being professional. Super honest people, can't say enough good things about them.
Peaceful and most of us know all our neighbors. Manager does a good job keeping things tidy and clean!
I know Alot of ones who live here and never really heard complaints so, must be good. lol

I haven’t been there yet. Looking at homes for sale. Trying to find out space rent and what’s included.
