I moved in the Arbors in March and could not be happier! My apartment was so well thought out and constructed in a way that optimizes the space...I have more than enough storage and my furniture fits beautifully. The amenities are beyond anything I would have dreamed of and the decor is beautiful. I've met new friends and know I can call this my perfect home for my retirement years!

I spoke with a gentleman today I can't spell his name but he was nothing but helpful! My family and I are looking to move to VA in the summer and I was having no luck in getting my general questions answered! Although this is a sinor property this guy still took 20 mins to answer all of my questions and I thank him so very much! Made my day so much better! Need more human like him!
