Review from the web

I did a short term lease here for nine months and was pleased. I loved the back unit that I had by the woods and trees because I had no neighbors facing me. My son loved going down to the creek and playing with all the kids in the complex. The pool and Jacuzzi were a nice bonus along with the dog park. Whenever there were issues with the apartment, they were quickly taken care of by the management team. One of the few apartment complexes that does short term rentals as well, so that was awesome. We moved because we needed a yard for a dog, but if you have a smaller dog the place is fantastic.
