Brushy Creek East Parmer Apartment Reviews (78613)

This is the value corridor. Five communities along Brushy Creek Road, West Parmer Lane, Colonial Parkway, and Ranch Trails Court. Most were built before 2010, and the rents show it.

But the real draw is screening flexibility and the MAA pet policy. Two of five communities here require less than the standard 3x income, and both MAA properties accept all dog breeds with no weight restrictions. We work with renters in this corridor regularly, and a common pattern shows up. Someone gets turned away at a property on Whitestone or Ridgeline because of income or a restricted breed, and Brushy Creek is where their options reopen.

You won’t find that combination elsewhere in Cedar Park.

What to expect on rent (Spring 2026):

1 Bedroom: $978+
2 Bedroom: $1,400+
3 Bedroom: $1,700+

Pricing as of Spring 2026. Verify directly with communities for current availability.

School District: Mixed. Most Cedar Park addresses here fall in Leander ISD. Properties east of Parmer near Brushy Creek may fall in Round Rock ISD (Westwood HS zone). Verify attendance zones before signing. Typical Property Class: A to B, mostly A range Communities Tracked: 5

Strong Management, Proven Reviews

These three have the reviews and the track records. None is the cheapest option here, but all three have earned their ratings over years of consistent resident feedback.

Camden Brushy Creek

Quick Facts

2008 · Class A- · Camden Property Trust · 1-3BR
650 to 1,334 sq ft · $1,079 to $1,849
No concessions (30 day satisfaction guarantee instead)
Income: 3x · School District: Leander ISD (Charlotte Cox Elementary, Vista Ridge HS)

Pros

Highest review volume on this corridor: 4.4 stars across 267 Google reviews. That’s a large enough sample to trust.
Camden Property Trust’s 30 day satisfaction guarantee. If you’re not happy within 30 days of moving in, they release you from your lease.
Two dog parks on site. No other community here has two separate dog areas.
Direct access to the Brushy Creek Regional Trail system from the community. Brushy Creek Lake Park is a short walk.
In unit washer/dryer in every apartment. Lagoon style pool, movie theater, gaming lounge.

Cons

No concessions. Camden doesn’t discount. No months free, no gift cards. You’re paying full price for every month of the lease.
75 pound weight limit on dogs with breed restrictions. Not an option for larger or restricted breed dogs.
2008 construction. Well maintained, but the finishes reflect the build year.

Overall Thoughts

For a renter who can qualify at 3x income and wants the most proven management on this corridor, Camden is where we’d start. A 4.4 average across 267 reviews isn’t an accident. Camden Property Trust runs a tight operation, and their satisfaction guarantee tells you they back it up. You pay for it though: with no concessions, your monthly cost is exactly what they quote. Every other community on this corridor is offering one to 2.5 months free. So the gap between what Camden actually costs and what you’d pay elsewhere after concessions is wider than it looks at first glance. For a renter earning $3,200/month or more who values management quality over getting the best deal, Camden is the standard. For everyone else, keep reading.

Latitude at Presidio

Quick Facts

2017 · Class A · Carter-Haston · 337 units · 1-3BR
604 to 1,531 sq ft · $1,088 to $2,078
2.5 months free on a 12-month lease
Income: 3x · School District: Leander ISD

Pros

Newest construction here (2017). Only community built within the last 10 years.
4.3 stars across 186 reviews. Residents consistently praise the maintenance team by name in reviews, which almost never happens.
Pet spa and dog park on site.
2.5 months free brings a $1,088/month 1BR down to roughly $861/month net effective ($1,088 × 9.5 ÷ 12).
Adjacent to the Brushy Creek trail system from Ranch Trails Court.

Cons

3x income requirement. A $1,088 1BR requires $3,264/month gross income.
Breed restrictions apply. Unlike the MAA properties on this page, Latitude does restrict certain breeds.
Higher starting rent than the 2x income communities listed below, even after the concession.

Overall Thoughts

If your budget handles $1,088+ and you can clear 3x income, Latitude at Presidio is the strongest all around option on this corridor. The 2017 construction makes a visible difference against everything else here. Carter-Haston management has earned the kind of reviews where residents mention specific staff members. That level of trust takes years to build and isn’t something you can fake at scale. With 2.5 months free, net effective rent on a 1BR drops from $1,088 to about $861/month. Against Camden, you’re getting newer construction with a real concession. Against the MAA properties, a Class A build at 3x screening. That 3x income requirement is the catch, and it pushes lower income renters toward the Tier 2 options further down this page.

MAA Cedar Park

Quick Facts

2006 · Class B+ · MAA (publicly traded REIT) · 237 units · 1-3BR
600 to 1,421 sq ft · $978 to $1,910
2 months free on a 12-month lease
Income: 3x · School District: Leander ISD

Pros

All breeds welcome. No breed restrictions, no weight restrictions. One of only two communities in our entire Cedar Park inventory with this policy.
4.3 stars across 167 reviews. Strong for a B+ community.
Lowest 1BR starting rent here at $978. Net effective with 2 months free drops to roughly $815/month ($978 × 10 ÷ 12).
Dog park with a pool misting system.
In unit washer/dryer.

Cons

2006 B+ construction. Finishes vary a lot depending on whether your unit has been renovated.
3x income requirement. The low starting rent helps, but you still need to clear the screening.
Ask to see the specific unit you’d sign for. The model may not match what’s available, especially on unrenovated units.

Overall Thoughts

MAA Cedar Park is here for two reasons: the all breeds pet policy and the review numbers. A 4.3 rating at 167 reviews on a 2006 B+ is genuinely impressive. The pet policy is the main draw. If you have a Pit Bull, Rottweiler, German Shepherd mix, or any breed on the typical restriction list, this is one of only two places in Cedar Park where you won’t be turned away. The 2006 construction means some units show their age, and whether you get a renovated unit matters a lot. Ask the leasing team which specific unit you’d be signing for. If you’re comparing MAA Cedar Park to its sibling property MAA Brushy Creek (listed in Tier 2 below): Cedar Park has the newer build, better reviews, and screens at 3x. Brushy Creek screens at 2x. Your income determines which one fits.

What It’s Like to Live Near Brushy Creek & East Parmer

This corridor sits at Cedar Park’s eastern edge where the city meets Round Rock. Brushy Creek Road and W Parmer Lane are the main arteries, and both get heavy during morning and evening commutes. Brushy Creek Regional Trail runs through the area with trailheads accessible from Camden Brushy Creek and several nearby neighborhoods. It connects Brushy Creek Lake Park, Brushy Creek Sports Park, and Champion Park across roughly 13 miles of paved surface. Our parks guide maps trail access by apartment corridor.

Retail is thinner here than on Whitestone or S. Lakeline. For groceries and big box shopping, you’re heading east to the Tech Ridge area at Parmer and I-35 (H-E-B, Target) or west to 1890 Ranch. Costco is on US-183 near the Lakeline area, about ten minutes out. Dining along Parmer runs mostly to Pluckers Wing Bar, Chick-fil-A, and Panda Express. Not much in the way of sit down restaurants, but you won’t go hungry.

Figure 15 to 20 minutes to the Domain and 25 to 35 minutes to downtown Austin. Properties on the eastern end of Parmer are closer to the 45 Toll/I-35 corridor, which is a faster route to Round Rock, Georgetown, and points north. CapMetro bus service is limited in this area. This is a car dependent corridor.

Value and Flexible Screening

What if you can’t clear 3x income? Or your dog is on a restricted breed list? These two screen at 2x. Older construction, sure. But that lower bar is what makes the difference for a lot of renters.

MAA Brushy Creek

Quick Facts

2003 · Class B · MAA (publicly traded REIT) · 312 units · 1-3BR
650 to 1,343 sq ft · $1,012 to $1,727
2 months free on a 12-month lease
Income: 2x · School District: Verify (MAA’s site says Leander ISD; other sources list RRISD)

Pros

All breeds welcome. No breed restrictions, no weight restrictions. Same policy as MAA Cedar Park above.
2x income requirement. The only community in our Cedar Park inventory that combines all breeds with 2x income.
A renter earning $2,100/month can qualify for a unit here that would require $3,150/month income at a 3x community. That’s a meaningful difference.
2 months free on a 12-month lease. A $1,012 1BR drops to roughly $843/month net effective ($1,012 × 10 ÷ 12).
4.0 stars across 143 reviews. Solid for a 2003 B class property.

Cons

Oldest construction among these five communities (2003). B class finishes that won’t impress you on a tour.
School district assignment is unclear. MAA’s own site says Leander ISD, but some third party sources place this address in Round Rock ISD. Verify directly with the district before signing if schools matter.
Limited common area amenities compared to newer properties. Fitness center and pool are functional, not flashy.

Overall Thoughts

MAA Brushy Creek exists for a specific type of renter nobody else in Cedar Park serves: all breeds accepted, 2x income screening, and concessions on top. That triple combination doesn’t exist anywhere else in Cedar Park that we’ve found. You’ll notice the 2003 construction on a tour. Walls are thinner, kitchens are dated, and the amenity package is basic. But for a renter whose dog gets rejected at every other leasing office, or who earns $2,000 to $2,500/month and can’t clear 3x screening, this is where the search stops. Not because it’s the nicest property, but because it’s the only one that says yes. At $843/month net effective after concessions, it’s one of the most accessible options in Cedar Park by any measure.

Bexley at Silverado

Quick Facts

2006 · Class A · Weinstein Properties · 300 units · 1-3BR
695 to 1,332 sq ft · $989 to $1,899
2 months free on 1BRs, 1 month free on 2BRs
Income: 2x · School District: Verify (Parmer Lane properties can split between LISD and RRISD)

Pros

2x income requirement. Same screening threshold as MAA Brushy Creek, with a different operator.
Mid renovation (2025). If you can land a renovated unit, you’ll have updated finishes at a 2x screening property. That combination is hard to find.
Aggressive 1BR concessions: 2 months free brings a $989 1BR to roughly $824/month net effective ($989 × 10 ÷ 12).
Same operator and screening criteria as Bexley at Lakeline on the S. Lakeline corridor. If you’ve worked with Weinstein Properties before, the process is familiar.
Dog park on site.

Cons

3.9 stars with 87 reviews. Lowest rating and smallest review sample among these communities.
Renovation is in progress. Whether you get a renovated or unrenovated unit is a coin flip depending on availability. A renovated unit feels like a different property entirely.
Breed restrictions apply. Standard restricted breed list, unlike MAA.

Overall Thoughts

Bexley is a bet on timing. Get a renovated unit during the 2025 refresh and you’ll have updated finishes at 2x screening with two months free on top. That’s a strong setup. Get an unrenovated unit and you’re in a 2006 build that hasn’t been touched since original construction. If you tour and they show you an unrenovated unit, ask when renovated units become available. The 3.9 rating is the lowest here, though the 87 review count is a smaller sample than the others. Compared to MAA Brushy Creek, Bexley has newer construction (2006 vs. 2003) and the renovation upside, but it doesn’t match MAA’s unrestricted pet policy. For a renter who screens at 2x but doesn’t need that pet flexibility, Bexley offers the newer build.

Pet Policy Comparison

Pet policy is one of the biggest decision factors on this corridor. Here’s how all five active communities compare.

Community	Breeds	Weight Limit	Deposit	Monthly Pet Rent	Dog Park
MAA Brushy Creek	All breeds, no restrictions	None	$400	$25/mo	Yes
MAA Cedar Park	All breeds, no restrictions	None	$400	$25/mo	Yes
Latitude at Presidio	Breed restrictions apply	Verify	$250	$15/mo	Yes + pet spa
Camden Brushy Creek	Breed restrictions apply	75 lbs	$250	$15/mo	Yes (2 parks)
Bexley at Silverado	Breed restrictions apply	Verify	$250	$20/mo	Yes

Pet deposits and monthly rent are per pet. Most communities allow a maximum of 2 pets. Verify all policies directly with the leasing office.

The MAA properties are the standout here. If your dog is on any breed restriction list, your options on this corridor narrow to two. Everywhere else applies standard restrictions.
