Apartment Description
Located minutes away from popular shopping, dining, and entertainment spots, our Montrose apartment community offers a world of opportunity in Houston, TX. Features like nine-foot ceilings, walk-in closets, and wood-style flooring will make you proud... to call any of our one and two-bedroom apartments in River Oaks, Houston home.
Convenience to Allen Parkway, Downtown Houston, and major employers at the Texas Medical Center and in the Downtown Houston Business District makes your everyday commute a breeze. And when you're considering your weekend (or weeknight) plans, you have plenty of entertainment options nearby.
Spend a sunny afternoon outside at Buffalo Bayou Park, head over to the River Oaks District for a luxury shopping experience, try out a new restaurant in Montrose, or cheer on the Astros with friends at Daikin Park.
This is the hidden charm of a home apartment that has been 2025 upgraded 100% from outside to fully upgraded kitchens and bathrooms with only 3 story outdoor corridors to use steps vs 10-20 floor high-rises causing you to use elevators daily...to inside looking fabulous. The location is highest in elevation - flood proof last 30 years and is 25 -35 minutes from Bush or Hobby Airport and 5 minutes from Downtown Houston as well as in the middle of Montrose and River Oaks (5-10 minutes from great restaurants !) across the Buffalo Bayou and close to Memorial Park for outdoor activities. Moved in 2014 and never left 12 year later ! Enjoy!

Noisy Apartment
I lived at Cortland River Oaks and unfortunately had a very frustrating experience due to constant noise and ongoing construction. For a large portion of my time living there, there was frequent loud construction noise that made it very difficult to relax or work from home. The noise would often start early in the morning and continue throughout the day. It felt like there was always drilling, hammering, or heavy equipment running nearby. What made it more frustrating was that there was little communication about how long the construction would last or when the loud work would be happening. As a resident paying premium River Oaks rent, I expected a quieter living environment and better transparency from management. The apartment itself and location are nice, but the constant disruption from construction significantly impacted the quality of life. If you are someone who works from home or values a peaceful environment, this is definitely something to consider before signing a lease here.
Property Manager Responded: Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear how disruptive the construction noise felt during your time at Cortland River Oaks, especially when you were trying to work from home or unwind. A comfortable and peaceful living environment is important, and we understand how ongoing renovation activity can impact that. The good news is that the renovations are now in their final phase, which has significantly reduced the level of noise and activity around the community.
While this doesn’t change the frustration you experienced, we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective, and your feedback helps us continue improving the resident experience during major projects. If there’s anything we can do for you, please always feel welcome to reach out to us at riveroaks@cortland.com.
