Great place to live! My husband and I moved in when our son was weeks old and have not had any issues whatsoever! Jay is awesome at what he does and is kind and respectful with everyone who walks into the office. The grounds are kept up well and maintenance is always quick to get things done. I would rate 10 stars if I could! We love it here!

I just signed my lease and will be a resident on 6/7. I am doing this review on your leasing agent named Zion. What a bright light! She has an awesome personality! I had a few questions and concerns being as though Arizona is experiencing absurd price gouging, and she was more than happy to help! Apartment hunting is super stressful, especially in these times, but she made it so much more pleasant and smooth. And calmed my frazzled nerves.
