Driftwood Apartments

My partner and I have been living at the Driftwood for about 4 years.
And we love this building. The location is wonderful, onsite parking and the newest updates of the windows, balcony door and the out side facade have really helpful.
But all of this means nothing if we weren't lucky enough to have Susan and George as our building managers. They are so attentive with the up keep and of course maintenance requests. Really make this apartment building a home. We'll be staying for awhile.

Our building managers (Susan and George) at 689 Woolwich St are always helpful and responsive to our questions and concerns. Our unit was renovated before moving in and it is close to all amenities. We even have the park right behind us.

My husband and I are very happy to find this apartment 689 Woolwich St. Driftwood Apartment. After we searched for 2 months finally we found a nice place here in Guelph.
The building manager (Susan) was so very helpful and very kind. Susan is always willing to help the residents.

I’m a resident and a senior living at The Diplomat Apartments next door to the Driftwood on Woolwich St. This is part of the Williams McDaniel family of apartment buildings. I’ve been here for a little over 3 years.

Our buildings are beside Riverside Park and approximately 50 yards from the Evergreen Senior’s Centre and a very convenient bus stop for the main bus line number 99.

First, I’d like to comment on our super “Supers” George and Suzanne. I’ve had many Supers over the years good and bad but these guys are in a class of there own. They are extremely friendly and caring and deeply committed to making sure we receive the best possible service. A request for assistance with an issue is barely finished before they are at my door doing whatever is needed. If they can’t fix it on the spot they have another professional there to do it. They along with the management have a Christmas get together as well as a summer Barbecue.

I also had the opportunity to deal with one of the management team, Trish. This was an issue that any Property Management would normally state would only be dealt with when they were preparing the apartment for another resident upon my leaving. Instead they brought in a qualified person to deal with it at no cost to myself.

The apartments are very clean and well maintained and are much larger than what you would get with a newer building. Many of the apartments have been renewed beautifully with fresh new bathrooms and kitchens including a dish washer.

I couldn’t as a an independent senior see myself living anywhere else.

Excellent location, quiet and comfortable. Any concerns were handled promptly by the attentive management staff (G & S). They along with our friendly neighbors have made us feel welcome for over 6 years.
