I wanted to live somewhere near the lake that was a bit nicer, had better amenities, and had a washer and dryer.Niki Moore has been fantastic I'm so Really happy with the apartment and with the management. Apartment itself is very nice. Also have never heard a peep from any neighbor, so I think the insulation is great. Maintenance team is super responsive.Thanks Nicki Moore
