Pike Road, AL 24 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Just outside the city of Montgomery, a new community is emerging. Pike Road, Alabama is reinventing the American hometown by blending timeless traditions with modern conveniences. Share iced tea with neighbors on the front porch or share photos of local events through the town square's Wi-Fi--welcome to Southern hospitality 2.0.

Pike Road is an up-and-coming area in high demand and on the fast track to keep up with that demand. Beginning in the 19th century as a small municipality on the outskirts of Alabama's capital city, the Town of Pike Road incorporated in 1997 to provide a refreshing alternative to random suburban sprawl. The town's planning commission has embraced and enforced "smart growth"--an effort to create communities equally desirable to residents and businesses while preserving green spaces and improving area walkability--a rarity in most rural settings. The recent construction boom in Pike Road gives it that new town smell. See more

Finding apartments with a pool in Pike Road means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Pike Road could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
