I moved to these apartments last year in February and I just want to say it’s been a great experience for me. Anytime I had an issue it got fixed right away. They are always understanding about things and they don’t wait around to get things done for you. I love staying in these apartments.

I am enjoying my life here, no complaints. No issues with parking for myself (1 car). No issues with any other residents. Everyone I have spoken to has been courteous. I havent had any maintenance problems that werent resolved within 3 days or so. Internet went out once in my two years here due to a quick overhaul of the unit downstairs, however restoring it did happen quickly (5 days).
