My husband and I have lived here since 2017 (almost 3 years at the time of this review) and I absolutely love it here. The team in the office are caring, compassionate human beings and they take the time to get to know you, are always quick to respond and they also organize fun community events. They have taken such great care of us I can't say enough good things about them! This is the first place I've truly felt like home and I've lived in three different apartment complexes before living here. We live in a 2bd/2b with an upgraded kitchen and appliances and it's super nice. We've had small things to fix here and there and the maintenance team is excellent and usually have things fixed within the same day. Once in a while we can hear neighbors, but mostly, the walls are super sound proof. Neighbors are really friendly and most of the people who live here are young professionals and families - you can always see families and kids out playing or people out with their dogs- a really great atmosphere (I mean, less people out during the winter, but that's normal!) We added a puppy to our family and the office team made it so easy to sign paperwork and make sure everything was ready for us to welcome our puppy home. There's a great fenced in yard for dogs, and there are plenty of waste baskets with puppy waste bags you can use throughout the property. Picking up packages is super easy - they installed an Amazon hub so you can pick up your packages whenever is most convenient for you. The only thing I wish they had here was a recycling station. But altogether, we love it here. We've had an amazing experience here and would recommend living here to friends, family and everyone!

I have lived here 5 years and I have NO intention of ever moving. This place is the best! The office staff are great and the maintenance staff is great. Eric is the best! But don't get wrong, ALL of them are fantastic. I absolutely ❤️ this place and I have the best view in the complex, face the main pond. My 😺 ❤️s it here also. He loves going outside and visiting all his animal friends.
