Reviews from the web

Showing 5 highest rated

I moved in this past May and have found it to be a great place to live. I love the exposed beam design. The Management Team is very responsive and easy to work with and maintenance requests are addressed very quickly. If you are lucky enough to find this place when they have a vacancy, you should give it serious consideration.

My ex was looking at apartments here. He took a self guided tour that they set up. AFTER getting in touch with a live person was nearly impossible. Upon this he showed me photos of the property. I can not even believe they allowed anyone to view this. Absolutely ridiculous.. photos attached. Here’s what you’re getting for $1000 a month for a “one” bedroom with these people.disgusting.
