Oak Run Reviews (27)
Average Rating for this Community
The pools and gyms are clean and the outdoor “common areas” are very nicely landscaped. Housing prices are better than any of the other gated communities we looked at...and we looked a lot! They have a nice restaurant with and music on certain nights!
All of our neighbors have welcomed us... really nice folks. We are close to the International Equestrian Center which just opened... it’s jaw dropping amazing! We could not be happier.
Here is my only complaint : For the most part the homes are maintained and everyone complies with the HOA rules. However, there are some homes that are not maintained and look dumpy - unkept yard, needs painting, etc. I don't understand why the rules are not enforced for all homes.
If you want a lower water rate you need to live in a different State; not in Florida!
Oak Run is constantly updating, replacing, and maintaining our BEAUTIFUL Gated community and our Fees per month are unbelievably LOW for everything that Oak Run offers! Check out maintenance fees in other communities that are gated with Security 24/7 (and new state of the art technology for Oak Run will be up and running very soon! This will keep out people that do not belong in Oak Run, and we will be even safer than before. Other Gated Communities charge a LOT more for everything.
If a branch hangs over your lawn that belongs to Oak Run - give them a call! They will add it to their list of "more things that need to be done for YOU, the Resident. They are pretty fast to respond to numerous requests. Safety requests are the first to be handled promptly. If you want Oak Run to handle b something because you don't like the"looks" of it I doubt it is a priority to handle right away and you can call to discuss your issue. They will listen to problems and help correct issues that need to be attended to in a timely manner. Oak Run aims to please and help with issues.
People need to be thankful for everything we have here in Oak Run! We have one of the BEST, WELL-MAINTAINED GATED COMMUNITIES that you will find in Ocala with the MOST REASONABLE PRICES!
Yes, we have Complainers in our SENIOR Community because many Seniors do tend to complain more as they age, and can't be pleased no matter where they live. I don't know of ANY PERFECT COMMUNITIES that jump when someone says to jump! PATIENCE is needed in every aspect of life, no matter where you live. Oak Run Management aims to please and will do their best for everyone who lives here: if you have a problem - call, but don't be a CHRONIC complainer! We live in a beautiful community, so be grateful for what you have here in Oak Run. I know I am! Oak Run is a beautiful community to live in and I'm very happy to be able to live here!
I wrote a review when we first moved here and I can honestly say, it just gets better and better. If you can't be happy here...you probably won' t be happy ANYWHERE.
Maintain homes not being care for as they should.
Equipment at gym does need updating
Pool equipment breaks takes forever to fix. Palm Grove hot tub down 2 weeks as of3/24.
Security well only for the ones who live here, got your tag can't put that on your house etc.
Look behind Crescent Oaks or Laurel Oaks it's a revolving door from outside community's into Oak Run.
We pay for amenities that do nothing to enhance the community but seem to enhance pockets of owners.
Go to homeowners meeting it's a waste of time- it's not in the budget, we are looking into it, or plain NO!
Should it break remove it if it needs repair Run it till it breaks then remove it!
Some people need to come out of the castle and see the hood as owners do! ??
PS: the executive golf run being closed gives us a 4 star instead of a 5........let s keep hoping...
