I lived here for a year and during that time the apartment manager always communicated and messaged quickly with helpful information. And the maintenance person Bob would always come within an hour or so of my request! Plus, he always did a stellar job and would explain to me what was going on which was nice because I have never lived in an apartment before:) I truly cannot say enough about how great the management is here! If you’re able to rent here I would 10/10 do so! Thank you Mary and Bob!!
