I have resided on this property for nearly three years and have encountered numerous ongoing issues. Building security remains inconsistent, and many residents fail to clean up after their pets, leaving the surrounding grounds in poor condition. While the maintenance staff does an exceptional job in their efforts to uphold a clean environment, the lack of accountability among residents continues to undermine these efforts. It is very disappointing. The office staff is not friendly or inviting... the Community Manager never walks the property and there are very few activities and events held for residents. I only remain a resident here because I have a washer and dyer in my unit.

So far, our experience has been wonderful. The staff works like a well oiled machine from the front office to the maintenance workers. Communication has been clear and concise.

Long time resident. Most neighbors seem sincere and respectful. Occasionally you’ll find a bad apple of a neighbor. Once there was a neighbor who used their apartment for Air BnB. They volunteered in their ad that smoking was allowed. Living above the is miscreant neighbor led to over 2 years of second hand skunk pot smoke leaking into our apartment. Talk about a nightmare.

Other than that, it’s mostly been ok. The rent increases lately have been fairly stable though prices seem to...
increase yearly. The maintenance staff are very good and dependable. Staff are mostly sincere too.
