So far so good, this place also has a great community! I would definitely recommend these apartments to friends and family. They get a ton of bonus points with the extra doggie wash station!!

Overall. Very good. Maintenance of the grounds and infrastructure is better than most places. Happy to see vehicles that do not belong here get towed away. Good activities for the kids and families. The cost of living here is a little on the high side.

Worst rental experience I've ever had. Had to remind the property of the terms listed in the lease agreement to ensure the terms were met
