Rose Garden Reviews

Mark Nye
No stars for Rose Garden in Surprise, Arizona. This is a Cal-Am property. The security gate is broken—no security. The streets are old and run down. The park shows little upkeep. Park smells bad from crumbling sewer and water pipes.

No. It’s way too expensive!

Is there anything you wish you knew before moving in?

How unfriendly the management is.

This is a very expensive $ place to live—$1000.00 just in space rent—that doesn’t include a mortgage payment. That could mean a high monthly payment together. This management cares nothing about residents' needs at all. They only collect money.

This is a warning: once you get in, they make it difficult to get out. Stay away from this depressing place and all Cal-Am properties.

If you’re looking at 55+ communities in Surprise, skip Rose Garden. The whole park shows neglect. The streets haven’t been taken of. The security gate is permanently broken and down. There is no security. The awful Cal Am management here does nothing. This is a very expensive place to live. Hardly worth it with this awful management and the condition of this park.
