Cassidy was very friendly and professional. The process was very seamless from my initial tour to moving in. Cassidy helped me navigate through the few minor issues that I had. I am editing this review and adding this portion due to other misleading reviews. When you move in, Cassidy informs you that there is a trash room where you can take your garbage. If the trash room is full, they ask you to take your own trash to the large bin outside. This is the first apartment that I have lived in that doesn't have you take your own trash out to the dumpster. During weekends there will be more trash because the maintenance person is on call for emergencies only. Cassidy is in the office daily Monday thru Friday. If the lights are on in the office then you know she is in the building. Just because she is not in her office does not mean she isn't around. I see her frequently helping the maintenance personnel with trash or taking a potential resident on a walkthrough of the building.

Spacious, cozy apartments. The atmosphere is wonderful, with mature trees and shade. The property is kept nice and tidy. The staff is quick with solving any problems that arise. The manager (Heather, so nice!) always goes out of her way to make sure tenants are taken care of. She is always running around trying to keep all of us happy, and will actually answer her phone at 10 pm (I still feel bad about calling that late) if there is something wrong, (like a light not working, aka bulb went out🙈.)
