I really enjoy living at The Vista! The location is the most convenient in town, the gym is great, and I love the pool too! Maintenance is quick to assist in all needs and the front desk people are awesome! Highly recommend living here… I renewed my lease for next year!

I have absolutely loved living in the vista. I moved into my apartment early August and had the easiest move in, and was offered help from the vista crew as well. I enjoy all the amenities provided by the vista, and also all the inclusive offers given to those who live here. The vista also has the best location possible, especially for a college student. Its location is an easy walk to all my classes, and right in the district. All in all, the vista is the perfect place for anyone, but especially college students looking for a clean, and fun place to stay.
