I don't know about the other units, but ours, lower level in Bldg. 1 was really bad.  It's out of date and run down.   Drain in main bedroom tub was super slow.  Didn't use the other tub.  It was a 2 b, 2ba with kitchenette, dining and living room.  Everything was super outdated but functional.  Surface cleaning was fine, but they never deep clean.  Blinds and windows are filthy.  Walls haven't been painted for probably 15+ years.  This was a last minute time share exchange that we had to pay for at a discounted rate.  Temps in early July around 100 degrees during the day.  Not a lot of shade either.  Nice pools, but didn't go in. It was too hot and sun was so intense.  Golf clubhouse restaurant was OK. We were booked Sat-Fri.  Air quality in room was so bad we left early on Wed. I stopped in at the manager's office and advised the air vents in the rooms were disgusting.  The vent shafts themselves were lined and coated with thick crud that looked like blown in insulation or pillow stuffing.  I started getting sore throat and irritated lungs.  When we first entered the big condo we had to immediately pull out the numerous floor fans from the closets and open the sliding door to air out the place.  One floor fan was filthy, full of pet hair.  He said he wasn't aware the vents were dirty and that he'd add it to the list that never gets approved.  I told him this had nothing to do with updating or redecorating, this was a health hazard and he should get the vents cleaned asap.  Then he acted dumb like oh, I wouldn't know who to call to get something like that done.  Funny, I recall him saying he'd been in management for 20 some years.  Then I also advised the track lighting glass that ran along the length of the kitchenette needed a good cleaning too.  The edges of the clear glass were coated with brown thick grease.  He said he hadn't noticed.  I told him because it was in the kitchen, it was a fire hazard.  I don't even know if I would have been able to tolerate the bad air quality even if we weren't limited to staying in the room because of the scorching hot temps.  If the other units are better, then it wouldn't be bad.  Also, even the outdoor lights were out.  Pitch black to go up and down the outside stairs to get to the room.  At least this so called manager had some money to replace the bulbs which he did.  Typical blames it on management that they don't want to put one cent into these units because they're trying to get rid of them.  If I was a timeshare owner at this resort, paying annual maintenance, I'd be furious.  By the way, the club house restaurant was pretty good, but even in there, right above our table, the air vent had all sorts of black junk hanging out of it.  Gordon Ramsy would have spotted that in a second.  NO QUALITY CONTROL.  It is a gated community and we don't golf but unlimited golf was available for free, not including the cart, and pool access and a few other club amenities were also included.

Very Bad Indoor Air Quality!  

Nice location, very polite and service minded person at the check in. 
BUT be aware that the pool is closed on Mondays. Bad luck for us, it was the reason why we booked it in the first place, to surprise our son for his birthday. 
Bad luck number 2: they closed the bigger pool on the Tuesday morning because it needed to be cleaned. That resulted in 30 persons in a small pool until the end of the day and us driving to an aqua park 10 miles away. 
In addition, if you are situated next to the pools, be aware that you might get a aqua gym class at 8:30 in the morning, lasting for one hour with loud music but obviously happy ladies.
Last but not least, the appartement we got smelled A LOT like smoke. For a 2 days stay, we didn’t complain but that could (should?) be taken into consideration when a family books a condo.
The condo is fully functional, clean but very outdated. 
To finalize on a positive note, the surrounding is very well maintained.

Closed pool and smelly appartement

We were here 2 days. Day one pool was closed because it was Monday ??? No information when buying. Day 2 pool opens at 10am, but from 08am is admission for elderly people who want to do water fitness. - means lot of noise from instructor yelling and loud music directly to our balcony, from where we could look at the pool where we were not allowed to go into. Next time please inform. Be honest….

Room great space old interior and no doubt it is a smoker apt. For many years. Next time give the smoker apt to the smokers and not the family’s.

A great place for people in retirement, but don’t go with children. They are not appreciated.

Room was clean.

Not family friendly

Comfortable mattress and pillows. Generally clean. Large 2 bedroom 2 full baths, kitchen stocked including dish and glassware, cook and bakeware and utensils. Ice cube trays. Agree with others great amnenities through April Sound Country Club and the restaurant is good.. with beautiful lake views. Cable wifi and cell phone signal somewhat slow but works. Glad other reviews confirmed rooms need updating. I thought I got the only frumpy room. I don't know the regular price because I booked as a timeshare exchange. I was happy that we weren't hit with all sorts of fees  Not a one.  We couldn't golf because my husband pulled his back muscle a week ago at home getting out of his favorite recliner!

Frumpy, Fun [NO fees]

Always enjoy our stay at this location. The condos are very clean, the location to the lake, shopping and restaurants is very convenient, we especially enjoy the amenities of the fitness center, pool and golf. The units may need a little updating but that is not an issue for us. The price we pay is very attractive to us retired travelers. The office staff are very helpful, courteous and friendly. 

Enjoyable Stay

Room has nice view, spacious 2 bedrooms, and full kitchen.  There are some bugs, but most appear to be dying.  Had trouble with internet on Saturday checkin.  Contacted staff Saturday and again on Monday as internet still bad.  Thursday, internet has improved significantly.  Was a real problem for 4 days.  Access to pool, fitness and golf course for cart fees only.  Nice course.

Trip to visit friends

April Sound is a gated community located on Lake Conroe.  Hwy 105 has many restaurants and shopping.  Unit 7 was spacious 2 bedroom condo with two full bathrooms - kitchen includes washer & dryer.  Manager said furniture was going to be updated.

Great vacation spot

My wife and enjoyed our stay. The townhome was on the top floor and had vaulted ceilings. The balcony was huge and faced the lake and pools. Furnishings were a little dated but quite usable and clean. There was a full size washer and dryer. The walk to the four pools was short and pleasant. Security personnel were present. There was all manner of places to shop and eat a short distance from our stay. A golf course was on the premises. All in all a nice space. 

Relaxing place

Office didn’t answer when called many times during business hours. Carpet was dirty, stained & warped. Broken light switches, towel racks. Cracks in floor tile and in tub. Sliding glass door difficult to open. Couches had large patches of vinyl torn off. No smoke alarms in the bedrooms. No fire extinguisher in the unit, but was given once we asked. One bed was hard and the other comfortable. Seemed like management/maintenance is not taking care of unit. Clean except carpet. I was told some units were remodeled, and this one would be sometime, but this should have been completely renovated many years ago! And that is no excuse for the broken things and safety issues. 
Positives- It is a large unit. All appliances worked, although old. Mostly clean. The location is very nice in the hill county of Texas! Unit is on beautiful grounds with a small view of the lake and next to the very nice country club: 4 pools & hot tub, snack/drink bar next to adult pool, lots of activities for adults, golf range, good food & view of lake & large firepit. 

Run down unit w poor management

Spent two weeks playing golf and visiting children, grandchildren, and brother. Was a great stay with no serious problems. Staff at the condos were very polite and helpful when needed. Weather was near perfect so spent very little time in the condo. As a side note: A/C in auto went out shortly after arrival. Took vehicle to RICKS AUTO SHOP and they worked me in and fixed the problem in less than an hour. Kudos to them! My visit was fantastic.
