My rating continues to be a 5 star for these reasons maintenance is top tier. Amenities are player, coworking cafe with a pool table, 2 pools one pretty & professional and the other larger, more laid back both get great sun. However, the pool areas are not resort style. Fully mirrored yoga room, cycling room, kickboxing room, and a nice gym with free weights and everything else. Pools not resort style is a minor but You give up certain things for choosing an older community. however what you get... in the size of the units for price, unmatched neighborhood and the diversity of amenities and the peace of the community, no drama; You can’t beat this place. I love it still! I’m on my 3rd lease.
