This is an amazing place to live. The apartments and condos are enclosed in wooded areas so it blocks out traffic noises. It feels so open and spacious with nice views of nature and great natural lighting. I walked around the grounds every day and never got tired of it. The amenities are very well kept; the gym is always tidy, the pool is always clean, and the maintenance crews work very hard to keep the grounds looking nice. It is a very safe area and a great place for young families or couples looking for a quiet, respectful place to live. If anything needed fixing, someone would come out the same day and they were always so polite and courteous when entering. I never had a bad experience with the staff. They are all super friendly and willing to help whenever necessary. Thank you Central Park team for making this a great place to live.
