This is one of the yards! Gross and management allows this. The damage is from dog feces not picked up. Ive been here a year now and will already be on the 3rd manager here. Look at the response to all negative reviews! They say call, LMAO, they NEVER ANSWER! ALWAYS VOICEMAIL so they can screen them
I was impressed when I came in for a tour and 9 months of living here has confirmed my initial impression. Clean, safe, friendly and well maintained. We are very happy here and are proud of where we live.
I was visiting some friends there, who just moved in. And I have to say that their place is really really nice.
Clearly with the more recently publicized issues regarding water meters and the like it would be hard to give a better review.More recently in trying to get answers from the organization (Scott) they are unable or unwilling to answer questions regarding the sale of of a mobile home within the park or act as if they don’t know the answers and fail in providing the professional courtesy of a response.They placed a sign stating hours by appointment only but are actually there.This was after the opening of the state from COVID so there goes one excuse.Just a very non responsive company with terrible customer service.
The corporation that owns this park will do ANYTHING to squeeze money out of its residents and will do ZERO to help them in the case of emergencies like a tree falling from THEIR property on your home. They will refuse to help and threaten legal action if you ask for help.
I just moved in almost a month ago and I love it. They are all so nice in the office and anytime there’s an issue they make sure to come out next day if not next day to get it taken care of. I highly recommend this place. Very clean well kept neighborhood. 5 out of 5. And the new homes are even better.
Scott is very accommodating to tenants. Place is great, clean and safe. 😊
Have a coworker who lives in these and they seem nice as far as trailer courts go.
Been living here over six months and Ill just say that moving here from peoria was the best decision Ive ever made. The place is quiet, friendly and perfect for my kid. I highly recommend it if youre looking to get away from city life.
HonestlyThe professionalism is just not there,I have called three times no one never answered and left two voicemails to inquiry about a home never once got a call back ! I will look else where after so many attempts to reach someone .
Moving in today. So far so good quick and easy paperwork. They do only allow 2 pets. Very clean and quiet community we got a newer home its beautiful!
Friendly Staff and Great customer service
New management are criminals. The roads and parks are in bad shape. Lot rent is outrageous. House payment cost less.
The office guys was polite and helpful. Ty so much.
Very nice management. Grounds kept up, a neat community .
We have been working with Michelle on the purchase of a new mobile home. She has been professional, friendly and is very knowledgeable at her job. The community seems very nice, quiet and the people are friendly and seem very happy to live here. Thank you Michelle for all your help to make this process seamless. I cant wait to move in.
Such a nice place to visit, very well maintained, very appealing to the eye. Quality of the homes and neighborhood or nothing shy of what Id expect in Morton.
I absolutely love the new office staff! Scott, Barry, and Lisa have been very helpful these last few weeks. I hope they stick around.
Best place love there smoked meats
My family & I cant wait to move here! We have been working with Michelle & she has been wonderful and patient doing her best to get us prepared for our first home! The area is quiet and clean and the homes are beautiful and well priced! Its located right next to beautiful trails and Morton is a great town. Im excited to have my daughter grow up here.
We were visiting family. Seems like a quiet and clean area.
Clean and quiet.
After living in Oak Lawn for the last year and a half, I decided to purchase a new mobile home. Michelle has been so great to work with. Answering my million phone calls and questions. It is a peaceful community, and everyone I have encountered on walks are always friendly. Looking forward to moving into our new home :)
They keep raising the rent making it very hard for people to live. 160 more a month that was my food money!!! The thing is you dont even get any perks.Very sad, I will end up in a nursing home now Thanks to the new owners in Colorado!
I am currently purchasing a home in Oak Lawn and the staff has been amazing. I will be moving from Oklahoma to Illinois and they have been very accommodating to the fact that I cannot be there in person. Wilma has been available to me via phone and e-mail. I have always received prompt knowledgeable responses. She showed the home to my family since I could not be there in person. Honestly I cannot express how nice and helpful they have been through this entire process.
I lived at oaklawn for 2 years when the new owners took over things got worse we had to pay for water sewer and garbage before we didnt. I just solidly trailer in time wasnt happy there anymore when I left I was told I would get my deposit back with in a month when ed n I would go to the office they would give me the run around it took 5 months for me to get my deposit back it shouldnt take that long Im just glad I dont live anymore it once was a beautiful place now its not so no I wouldnt recommend that place at all in my opinion.
Michelle and staff were helpful in making my parents move from southern Illinois to Morton easier. Answered all our questions and showing trailers that were for sale. We are thankful for all of their time and effort during this transition.
My name is Ashley H. And I just recently purchased a home in oaklawn estates and if I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Michelle and Demi in the office went above and beyond what their job entails them to do. My application got denied the first couple of times due to some unforeseen issues but they knew my situation and did everything they could to get me approved. Everyone in the office is absolutely amazing and the neighborhood is so clean and everyone in the neighborhood is so friendly.
Tomorrow I will be finishing my process on a brand new trailer! The staff has been so amazing and helpful. They really care about their residents and future residents as well. I am really happy with their care and their service! I highly recommend this area if your looking for a really clean and nice and peaceful area with people who really care :)
Great service. Excellent knowledge of properties. All staff was helpful even if they wasnt the office member assisting you they would help as best they can and answered all questions for you. From the front desk too the Management very friendly and respectful. Clean housing community.
I dont live here but friends do as of recently. Its a very clean and quiet area thats close to a pumpkin patch and small lake
Beautiful park, quiet with nice mobile homes. Office staff is very welcoming, always full of cheer and smiles. Make you feel right at home before u even move in. Wouldn’t want to love any where else.
If you want a place to live with a wonderful and kind people—-This is the place.... I bought a home here and the atmosphere is peaceful!! Easy transition..! You gotta come and check it out. All the lawns are kept up and free of clutter. I felt welcome and right at home immediately.
Wow! The deals at Oak Lawn are great! I have been working with the team there to purchase a home and what a great experience and what beautiful homes to choose from . And the prices are great too! I am really impressed.
Great experience buying a home. Thanks Barry!
Very expensive and lot rent keeps going up. Been there 3 years in July and rent has gone up $135.00 since then. Have seen no improvements to warrant this increase. They cant even keep the street clear from snow. Ask the poor mailman Gary. Very disappointed in this park.
Clean area, well lighted, looks nice
Great place to call home! Everyone is friendly! Community is kept immaculately clean. Office ladies are the best. So glad we found this place.
THIS IS A GREAT PLACE OFFICE PEOPLE ARE AWESOME HIGHLY RECOMMEND.. IT IS GREAT THAT THEY OF ACTIVITYS FOR EVERYONE.. COME JOIN US ALL.
Seems like a very nice mobile home park.
The administration is woefully inept. New people who arent fully trained, left without management to support them and dont have answers to questions.When my father-in-law died his daughter inherited his trailer. We called the office the day after because we needed to sell fast to get back to our house a few counties away. Their manager never called us back. They then said in order for us to know how much that lot rent was that we needed to have a power of attorney on file with their office. He died unexpectedly and so he did not think ahead to get the power of attorney drafted. The power of attorney expires when the principal, or in this case my father-in-law died. They refused to talk to my wife or I, even having a death certificate wasnt enough.Then, in order for us to sell the trailer, they required their move out notice. Even going so far as to blame my father-in-law for not filling it out in advance of his death, as if he would have known that he needed to do such a thing. So there administration is so terrible that they needed my wife to fill it out so that they could reassign the lot to a new tenant, so is not too confused corporate.UNRELATED:PLEASE CHECK THE NEWS BECAUSE THEY HAVE ILLEGALLY INSTALLED WATER METERS USING UNLICENSED INDIVIDUALS TO INSTALL THEM. THEY HAVE TAKEN NEW OWNERSHIP WITHIN THE LAST YEAR OR TWO AND THE NEW ADMINISTRATION BELIEVES THAT WATER AND TRASH SHOULD CARRY SEPARATE CHARGES, ALTHOUGH NO ONE WHO HAS SIGNED THE LEASE CAN VALIDATE THIS. SEVERAL HAVE FILED A LAWSUIT AND HAVE ONE SO THAT THE WATER METERS WERE REMOVED AND TRASH SERVICES AND WATER ARE NOW INCLUDED IN A LOT RENT, BUT FOR ONLY THE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAD SUED THEM. THIS HAS BEEN ON THE NEWS IN THE MORTON AREA. PLEASE TAKE CAUTION IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING MOVING TO OAK LAWN.
Michelle and Nicole were excellent help in me finding a new home. The community is friendly and quiet. I recommend Oak Lawn estates.
Had an amazing experience! Staff was amazing and very hard working!! They were very helpful in helping me find my forever home!!
Get it together with the water issue. Its ridiculous .
Great place to live! Very safe and friendly environment. Highly recommend.
Love Michelle, she did anything and everything to get me in my new home in the time limit provided ... She has the best customer service ever!!!!!
Nice,quiet and friendly neighborhood with wide streets in a truly great town.Loved dealing with Nicole when we closed on our purchase.
Lovely place! Very homey! Great service! And the staff are wonderful! Love this place!
Love love love this place! I have never felt so at home as i do here! Not to mention all the office staff and maintenance staff go above and beyond to meet your needs!
Oaklawn Estates has been under new ownership and has had a new office staff for just over a year now. They really seem to be trying to improve things with bringing in dozens of brand new homes for prospective homeowners. They also have several older, but freshly spruced up homes as well. The park seems clean, safe, and is in a great location off Meadow Ave between East Peoria and Morton, and not far from Interstate 74.
Oak Lawn is a well maintained property. The office staff is very helpful and they do a great job.
Ive been living here for over 16 years and what use to be a really clean Mobil Home community is becoming a trashy trailer park. Im so embarrassed to even live here now. When Mr. Linstrom was alive and owned this place it was well kept. No one sped through the park or he would be knocking on your door warning you about it. He would drive his van around and beware of how things were going good and bad. The groundskeeper was 1 guy most of the time and he did a wonderful job. When the street needed cleaning, the park took care of it buy rakes,brooms and shovels. Not now. Its crazy around here now, they send these stupid monthly news letters out and mention that they want clean yards. Yeah right!! How do you keep a clean yard when these idiots go down the streets blowing all kinds of debris in your yard when you work hard at keeping it looking good. These people work for RVHorizons out of Colorado. They brought a bunch of new trailers in here last summer and a lot of them are sitting around the park still . Sure they might be trying to get some places ready to put new trailers in them but I personally will not be surprised if they are still sitting there come winter at the rate theyre doing things around here. By the way, lookout for potholes going through here. The park never had them before but are getting quite a few now. If i could stand across the street from the place with a sign saying, (You dont want to live here) I would. Unfortunately many of us that are fed up with these people, cant just pick up and move. I could go on and say more negative things about this place but I think you get the picture.
Good atmosphere. Mobile homes run gamut from absolutely beautiful to trash. I have served 50 plus homes in this park at one point or another and never know what to expect. Kept clean and quiet.
Was a very nice park until new owners took over in Feb 2018. Tried to (illegally) push out new leases as soon as they took over. Now they have raised the lot rent along with charging for water and trash. Have done no improvements to the property. New trailers they brought in are sitting on the sides of roads with no plans for them. Three boil orders in a year. Cant keep the front office consistently staffed (high turnover). Maintenance crew is friendly but the owners will now allow them to do in-home maintenance due to liability issues. If you ask they say its not their problem.I moved out the end of April, signed the papers and everything. Two weeks later they were calling me asking why I didnt pay the lot rent!! Had to tell them twice I moved out!!If you are thinking of moving in, please reconsider!!
My son and daughter-in-law live there.
I came here from Sydney, Australia and ive moved all over the U.S and this is by far the best place I have ever been. Im dead serious, if anyone needs to hide from the old carona V they can come here and feel completely safe. Thats how well maintained the place is. And the staff, OMG. They are the greatest people. Nice and very informative. Especially the young blonde lady.....Demi Is her name im pretty sure. Alright Im done, ONE LOVE!!!!
I have been looking for a home in oak lawn and the staff has been nothing but help!! They have great service and are very polite!! Thank you!!
Beware of the billing practices here. My father showed me his July bill for rent, water and sewer. There was no detailed breakout on his water and sewer usage. This was apparently a FAKE bill because a few days later he got a NEW bill with the water and sewer usage breakout. Guess what? The new bill was lower than the fake bill! This is a company that owns and manages many properties across the country, but operates as if they are in the stone ages.
Wilma is great. Big help. I really liked working with her. Very friendly.
They do less and less for their tenants but raise the lot rent yearly. They use to plow the streets better in the winter. They took better care of the trees better. My family members lived there for many many years...
Adult only section is very nice, well maintaiined.Family section run down. They dont keep streets free of snow.
New owners are not very accommodating if you have a maintenance issue. They legally can’t even do work on their own property. If that tells you how things are going...
Very Professional and Well kept . Quiet community
New trailers are scattered on the streets all over the park which closes down some roads... Office staff is not very friendly it understanding... Company that owns park is based on Colorado so not very good face to face customer service
Overall Ive enjoyed living in Oak Lawn for three and a half years its not perfect but I dont think any place is. I would like to see some of the trees taken down or trimmed more often and some type of shelters for inclement weather
Very clean and organized. Very nice mobile homes yards were clean well picked up
I love to go there to hangout with my friends that live there
Very peaceful place. Nice homes. Friendly staff.
Was great till the new owners took over. Now its basically Flint.
Looks like they are cleaning it up with lots of new mobile homes.
People are very unhappy with the company that has taken over the company.
Alway always clean!!! And a SC side and a you got kids side!!! And my friends enjoy living there!!
Clean retirement park well taken care of by staff. All mobile homes, rent space.
Wide spacious streets. Well maintained homes.
Nice place but lacks anything for children or shelters for tornadoes
Very nice people all around nice and quite neighborhood
Hoping to make our new home here...waiting to hear back from management.
Nice park. Clean and super wide streets.
Horrible people up front don’t know how to run this place and lie strait to your face the only reason it has 1 star is because there’s no option for 0 this place is the worst been waiting on new door and fix my yard but still haven’t for 4 months absolute joke here.
Nice and clean
Wepay lot rent and no one has come to trim the trees hanging over our home in 19 months even though when we ask them every month there response it we are on the top of the list to get it done... UGH!!!
Oak Lawn is in a period of transition. New owners are assuming control on February 1st. I guess the future will reveal what type of changes are in store. There are many many empty spaces in the older section of the park where the single wide trailers are.
Very nice place to live
Needs a clean up, looking like one of those trailer parks
Realy nice place
Well maintained.Quiet and peaceful.
Good people good times
Great
