I moved to the Cottages at Brightleaf sight unseen and am very happy I chose to live here! They made moving from out of state a breeze. I enjoy the new complex, not having anyone living above me, and having access to lots of walking in a clean and relatively quiet area. Living here has been a great choice for my dog and cat as well. I would recommend living here if you want a quieter and more private space.

So far, coming from another state- it has been a smooth experience. Maintenance team, lead by Thomas did a great job resolving a lighting issue.

The concept of the community was a great idea. The actual implementation was a miss. Inadequate parking for the number of units is ultimately going to be a problem as many residents have multiple vehicles. The only amenities are the pool ( which most of the residents don’t use ) and the community package which is pre selected.
