Review from the web

My wife and I lived here for almost 3 years and absolutely loved it! I lived all over the world and moved over 30 times. And this was my favorite spot. It's like living in a Luxury hotel! Brooke and the staff are excellent and we made life long friends here. Great sense of community and a great building for your fur babies! Tim and Kelli
