I can't recommend this complex or it's dedicated and hard-working staff enough. Lynn was extremely professional and courteous. She and her associate set me up with an amazing unit in record time. They both went above and beyond!

I love my apartment! Amazed at the amount of closet space and like-new appliances. The application process was easy, from filling out papers to signing my lease was pretty fast. I have seen no bugs, no evidence of rodents and the water gets hot fast. Also, the office staff have been super helpful (even answering dumb questions). I would for sure recommend this place, so far it has been lovely.
