Location & Nearby Spots
Lakewood is tucked behind the Aldi at East University and College Street, near everyday conveniences (Starbucks steps away and Walmart nearby, per the host). Dining options in the immediate area include Savanh Thai Takeout (about 451 m), Waldo's Chicken & Beer (about 775 m), Acapulco's Méxican Grill (about 471 m), and IHOP (about 902 m). For transit, Towne Place Suites Auburn bus station is about 686 m away, and Tiger Transit picks up nearby on weekdays for campus access.
Best for
This condo suits Auburn visitors who want a quiet lakefront setting without being far from campus—Auburn University is under a mile away, with Tiger Transit nearby on weekdays. It’s also well-suited to longer stays and game-day weekends thanks to the full kitchen, in-unit laundry, free Wi‑Fi, and free on-site parking. Travelers who value recreation will appreciate access to the community pools plus tennis and volleyball courts.
Travel tips
Access is via the front door that opens toward the lake: park behind the building and walk around to the front (the host recommends parking between Building I and H and following the sidewalk). For getting around, driving is typically the most convenient, and ride-share is recommended for game days; a Tiger Transit stop is nearby for weekday campus travel. Because the unit faces the lake, the host advises closing the door promptly—especially at night—to help keep mosquitoes out.
What guests say
Reviews consistently highlight the condo as a strong overall stay, with guests emphasizing the appealing lakefront setting and the fact that water views are part of the arrival experience. The renovated, well-designed interior is a recurring positive impression, paired with the convenience of being close to Auburn and campus transit options like Tiger Transit. Guests also call out the immediate access to community recreation—pools, tennis, and volleyball—as a standout feature. No specific negative themes are provided in the available excerpts, though the property’s own rules note it is strictly non-smoking and pet-friendly, which may matter for sensitive travelers.
