Mercato Grove Apartments

I recently moved in here and have been very pleased with every aspect. If you’re looking for amenities, look no further. This place is kid friendly and extremely dog friendly, the staff has been extremely helpful and it’s such a convenience living in Mercato Grove. Our apartment is light, bright and beautiful and we can’t wait until the pool opens :) Happy to call this place home

I have been living at Greystar’s Mercato Grove for 9 months and I couldn’t be happier! The entire team here, from leasing to maintenance to management, is run like a well-oiled machine. I was reluctant to downsize from my home here in Lake Oswego, but after enjoying life here in Mercato Grove, I only wished I’d done it sooner!

I have really enjoyed my experiencing living here so far! The building has a great positive energy, it's new and nicely designed with cool features in common areas (great gym, lounge, whiskey library with pool table, and game room). There's a wide variety of people who call Mercato Grove home, lots of families, working professionals, retirees--it feels like a great blend. Sound does not travel much between rooms and the community is peaceful and respectful. All of the employees who work here are polite, professional, and personable; what a feat! I especially appreciate the promptness and kindness of the Maintenance Team, who respond quickly to any issues and are extremely courteous. The building is located in a prime location in Lakegrove near the Freeway, right off Boone's Ferry, and close to tons of shops and restaurants. I feel lucky to have landed here.

Just moved into Mercato Grove from San Francisco! I absolutely love everything about this building. Felipe made everything incredibly easy for me. The application process and my move-in was all taken care of while I was in San Francisco. Excellent customer service and he was incredibly patient with me. Thank you, Felipe. Appreciate your help.

I may be a homeowner, but Mercato Grove makes a good case not to be. This facility has it all: plenty of excellent patio, picnic and barbecue space outdoors; a fantastic pool and gym, meeting rooms, game rooms and playrooms for the kiddos; spacious, naturally lit and utility-furnished units perfect for singles, couples and small families; place has it all! It feels more like a community than many neighborhoods I've lived in. We were graciously invited to check out this upscale living space during a recent Yelp Elite Squad event, and both my wife and I were very impressed with everything Mercato Grove had to offer. In addition to all the features mentioned above, the rest of the grounds include a tea bar, a juice bar, and nail salon, multiple restaurants, a pharmacy, and several other shops that I unfortunately failed to note. The Elite Squad event was catered by several vendors, including cocktails provided and mixed by the fantastic Finlandia liquor company (from Finland, obvs), microbrews from (the local) Fracture Brewing company, sanwiches by Lardo, and donuts by Fill's. Oh, and I did I mention there was a baby goat petting zoo? Yelp really knows how to spoil us! I joined the Yelp Elite Squad 3 years ago, with the express purpose of attending events and meeting people from the community, and it took this long to finally make it out to my first hosted event (thanks a lot, COVID)! I'm happy to say, that I was duly impressed, and I look forward to many more such events! Thank you to our CM, Sarah, and Mercato Grove, for putting together and hosting such an incredible event! The next time I'm in the market for a full-featured, community-centric place to live, I know where I will be looking first!

I have lived at Mercato grove for almost two years now and it has been a great home! The management has been incredibly helpful and kind, and the maintenance staff are very quick to help with any issues. I love the amenities, the pool is wonderful in the summertime and I love to see the ducks! :)

Some great restaurants here including Grassa with handmade pasta, Lardo with great sandwiches, and Tasty with just good creative food. Parking is decent in the underground area and there are a couple electric car chargers. Worth checking out if you're in the area.

Great views in some apartments with reasonable amenities, but very little storage and parking is difficult, even if you opt for >$100 fee to park in garage. Monthly utility charges for common areas are very high, typically 2x the amount on individual units paid directly to utility providers. Staff are reasonably responsive, but not very friendly. In summary, the complex is over priced in that a small (~900 sf) unit will cost around $4000/mo for base rent + parking + utilities + storage.

So yeah, the duck is cool, but that ship has sailed. Today my post is serious. It's about garbage and garbage cans. It's not just about littering, but dumping garbage on the ground. Right next to a garbage can no less. I have seen this multiple times in the 8 months I have been working in this shopping center. Today I was walking into CVS and there was a ton of poop bags (full mind you) and McDonald's boxes/wrappers within 6 inches of a garbage can. A man picked up 1 item, tossed it in the can and casually walked off?? Really? I am not saying it was his, although it could have been. I turned around and picked up the rest. A woman passed by me and said, "Oh, did a bird do that?" I was like, "Are you kidding? A person did it." Has anyone seen a bird pick up a half full container of sweet and sour sauce from a garbage can? This experience makes me disappointed more than anything else. I get that this is a fancy area and people feel like money "trumps" [pardon the pun] everything, but guess what they are just like everyone else. I suggest that cameras be installed around the Green Zone parking area, as well as the garage and people who do this be fined. Groves are supposed to be clean and beautiful not trashy and swarming with flies.

Great little apartment complex and I appreciate that they have EV parking available. I use it when I shop at the CVS and other stores so conveniently located. That being said, the EV parking is on the ground floor in a covered garage yet somehow got a mass of snow pushed up onto the cables and left there. There was no way that snow got to that section naturally. Seems kind of intentional at this point. If I was the building management I would take a hard look at the garage crew and ask why they are abusing the equipment like that. Those units aren't cheap.

Bar none the worst apartment staff and complex I've experienced. Safety concerns, lack of respect for tenants, harassment from elderly men who live in the building, and a total lack of community. The "shared" spaces are always empty. I don't know why I still live here. Avoid this spot, let the grandparents live here in peace. Oh and thanks for whomever throws coffee on my windshield every day.

An amazing staff who offers a first class resident experience! The property is gorgeous and meticulous. They have gone the extra mile for me during a stressful move due to displacement by our recent storm. I cannot recommend Mercato Grove enough. You will not be disappointed. Truly a one of a kind property, worth every penny with all the extras, amenities and a staff that makes you feel like you are a VIP resident every single interaction.

We came for the yelp elite event and had a magnificent time! There were a bunch of vendors there kindly running the experiences. They had a greay spread of drinks and food. The building was gorgeous and had a bunch of amenities. I particularly enjoyed the pong game in the game room. Seems like it would be a pretty cool place to live! Also thanks for bringing goats because they were the star of the show!

We've been living at MG for awhile now & we love it! Not only do we love the great views & amenities for the whole family- but the staff here at MG. Ivone (property manager) has always gone above and beyond. Any issues that we have ever brought to her attention shes quick to resolve and find solutions to make everyone happy & comfortable. She is openly checking in to make sure everything is going well. The Mercato grove team from maintenance to front office staff have always greeted us with a smile & are always very welcoming. I would recommend living here to anyone considering LO area!

My elderly mom lives at Mercato Grove. I visit her daily. We have had a great experience here and just renewed her lease for another 18 months. The staff is responsive and polite. All of the shared spaces are free to use including a beautiful community kitchen, weight room, lounge area, pool room, swimming pool and dog wash room. There are only a few conference rooms they rent, the kitchen for parties and fancy appliances for our convenience. They have events often that we enjoy there. They had a root beer float party with adult beverages and yard games outside recently that was fun to meet neighbors. Her apartment is very quiet, neighbors nice and the building is secure. We are very happy there!

Pros: My unit itself for the most part has a good layout and great appliances. Staff (including maintenance and repairs) have been incredibly responsive to my questions. The building is gorgeous and really pet friendly from what I have seen. Cons: 1. Let me start off by saying that rent is nearly $800 higher a month compared to similar apartments in Portland and other complexes in LO. 2. Many of the amenities showcased on the tour cost extra and you need to pay their contractor to install blackout curtains if you want adequate curtains. Noise also travels far more than I would have expected compared to my previous apartments. 3. I rarely (if ever) have seen fellow residents wearing masks while inside public areas. Management has sent two reminders thus far and posted signs - but I still often end up sharing the elevator with an unmasked person (which is a concern to me given my proximity to ppl with health complications in my life). 4. There are no comparable services like Fetch in place so you need to dig through the mailroom to find your packages.

Ivonne is the definition of two faced! incredibly rude, and her staff is just as bad. we are so happy to finally be out of this crap hole. It was cheaply made, and you're surrounded by KARENS. don't waste your money on this apartment, they'll harass you and threaten to kick you out almost about everyday if you walk too "loudly" doesn't matter if it's during the day or night. OH and no matter what, if you talk normally, they'll report you. So I would stay as far away from this expensive apartment.

Iyvone and staff were great in accommodating me for my short term stay while in Portland. Great communication and patience, while also serving their guest promptly. Loved the apartment spaces that were offered within the complex. Great community environment and comfortable space to live while in Lake Oswego.

Last night the tenant across from me physically threatened me and my daughter due to me asking her to wear a mask as this is the building policy. She yelled at the top of her lungs a string of profanities in front of my 10-year-old daughter and then informed us she was going to do something to our apartment. I immediately went downstairs to report this to the property manager as I was so surprised that we are paying close to $3,000 a month to have another tenant threated my child. Other tenants came out of the apartments, but no one did anything. I immediately went downstairs to inform the property agent of her threat and she followed me yelling profanities to us in front of the property agent and the property agent did nothing to stop her. We were very shaken up by this incident and all the management did was just provide me the number for the security patrol and call 911 if there is a problem. I had to call the police to put this on record as I feared for our safety. I am very disappointed that I rented here and upset that management cannot do more to ensure that my daughter and me have a safe place to live.
