Campus Habitat

hello students. look at your room, now look at mine, now back to your room, now back to mine. sadly, yours isn’t mine, but if you stopped accepting second-rate housing and cramped dorm rooms yours could be like mine. look down, back up, where are you? you’re in an apartment with amenities that are guaranteed to make members of your gender of choice weak in every joint at once. sure, they’ll probably want to spend far more time at your place than you’re comfortable with, but can you blame them? you have your own room. you have stainless steel appliances. you have a ginormous flat screen television with a picture so clear that you’ll completely forget you’re not actually at the Jersey shore. and with free on-site tanning, you can totally look the part too. Just please go easy on the axe… What’s that? you’re late for class? Well look again. you’re on a short seven minute walk on an entirely bear-free forest path that will have you on campus faster than your new puppy can shred your favorite pair of underwear. that’s right, your new apartment is pet friendly, so go ahead and get that dog, cat, or llama-goldfish hybrid you’ve been eyeing in the skymall catalog. you deserve it. but what does one even bring to furnish an abode this splendiferous? the glory is that you can bring absolutely nothing, for your dream apartment comes fully furnished. Wonderful. but wait, there’s more! all utilities are also included in the very low price of your rent. Cable? internet? electricity? yes, they’re all yours free of charge. love where you live. Fantastic.





Canterbury Apartments

how would you like to have unlimited headroom – so much that it almost makes you feel like you’re outside? allow me to introduce an architectural marvel known as cathedral ceilings, available at Canterbury apartments. these ceilings are great, and it makes the room nearly double in size. you’ll never feel cramped again! it’ll also help keep the room quiet so you won’t have to worry about hearing your neighbor’s dinner conversation. Canterbury is close to campus as well, only a nine-minute walk, or if you’re feelin’ active, a five minute jog away. speaking of jogging, if you’re into fitness, Canterbury also features a world class fitness center as well as a resort style pool and sundeck. Workout, swim, layout, look good at Canterbury. Canterbury also features private patios or balconies and each apartment also includes a large storage unit. Oh, and then there’s the carports. We all know Mt. Pleasant has looooong winters and who enjoys waking on a cold January morning and cleaning 3 inches of ice of your windshield? that won’t happen when your vehicle issheltered underneath a carport! Canterbury is the kind of place where relaxation comes every time you get home, a little like your own personal sanctuary. after all, home is where the heart is, so why not keep your heart at Canterbury apartments? relaxed living for real people.

Apartment Management Group

Olivieri Management

listen up my friend, a well kept secret is a secret no more... you can live away from home and still feel at home. the apartments and townhouses of Olivieri have that cozy feel you don’t usually get from student housing, and they’re not shy on space either. With a variety of townhouses and apartments to choose from, you will find exactly what you’re looking for in your very own place. even better, you can apartment shop in your pajamas (another factor of Olivieri coziness.) the full list of housing can be found on their site, now jot this down and check it out, www.olivieri-homes.com. there you can conveniently view the layout, location, and amenities of each. Whether it’s your first apartment or fifth, i have a feeling an Olivieri apartment or townhouse will be your favorite place to call home sweet home.

Quality Apartments

Nancy McGuirk is a CMu alum. as such, she knows that students really appreciate a clean, safe, spacious and affordable place to live…hence her business name: quality apartments. after all, doesn’t quality entail all of the aforementioned things? quality apartments offer 25 units (houses, duplexes and apartments) located mainly within the student housing area (north of campus), between bellows and downtown. each unit is licensed and inspected annually by the City of Mt. Pleasant. if you don’t know or understand the importance of this, just ask Nancy. Nothing is more important to quality apartments than providing safe, superior housing for CMu students looking to further their education. if you are looking for location, location, location, you will find it here. they also have a really great website (qualityapts.com) with all of the up-to-date information you need to know when looking for housing...and then some! quality apartments offers rent payment options and can assure you that there are NO hidden fees and NO application fee . so take my word for it, or better yet, take quality apartment’s, where the belief is this: “quality is never an accident, it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution. it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.” Make your quality decision and rent from quality apartments.

Timber Creek Apartments

don’t you love signing a lease and underneath the lessee’s responsibility section there’s four paragraphs of utilities costs and fees written in something reminiscent of Olde english that you’re responsible to pay on top of that “low, low monthly rate.” don’t you? isn’t that fun? don’t you lie to me! it’s not fun, you know it’s not and that’s why you need to check out timber Creek where a flat rate is truly flat. We’re talking cost effectiveness here, easy on the pocket book means ease of mind. Get a three bedroom year-long lease for $825 per month...for you math majors out there, that’s $275 per person per month. if i’m not mistaken, you could make that donating plasma at biolife. that price includes basically all the utilities you need: electric, gas, heat, aC, water, sewer, and trash pickup! all you have to do is cover internet costs. Oh and you can take Fido, your precious miniature poodle, with you too. you know that’s good news, how could you look at his cute little eyes and then ship him off to your parents for a year? talk about inhumane! you won’t have to make that decision at timber Creek, take him with you and your friends. Get smart, get a flat rate and save some cash by leasing at timber Creek.
