Do not live here.
When we toured in October, we were told the unit we signed up for had an attached garage (leasing team #1). Upon move-in in December, we were told the only available garage was 4 buildings over, and when asked about the attached garage the touring agent told us about, the move-in agent’s answer was ‘well why do you think she was fired’ (leasing team #2).
In February, they double assigned our carport and their solution was to sell us another garage (at least this was closer).... Never got another assigned carport.
In April, the garage spring broke and it took just short of a month to be repaired (we were transitioning to round #3 of front office staff) with no garage fee removed or anything to mitigate no garage for a month.
In August, our water heater broke. We were also on round #4 of front office staff. It took maintenance coming out 4 times to determine it was broken and their solution was a key to a random apartment so we could shower and wash dishes (completely different part of the building and 3 floors up). It took a Warranty of Habitability demand letter to get it replaced. The office never communicated with us, just sent the contractor to our unit and all our communication was with the contractor.
You will hear ALL the street racing on HW 36. All night, year round. There is zero noise blocking in the units.
If you have a second floor unit with interior stairs, you will hear everything from your downstairs neighbors unit.
The trash is a singular compactor for the entire complex so it’s regularly full and there is always piles of trash outside of it.
Check your fire extinguisher. Ours was empty at move in and wasn’t filled until late October (10 months into our lease).
Our unit looked nothing like the show unit, and wasn’t even cleaned before we moved in. The dishwasher didn’t open all the way due to the oven, our blinds were broken, cracked and poorly repaired bathroom counter and sink, warped windows that barely close (lots of force), and an uneven front door. The floors are uneven and it almost feels like it’s sinking in some areas.
We never got to use any amenities because our keys didn’t work and the pool was closed until July anyways.
Don’t waste your time. This was easily the worst place we’ve ever lived and the worst apartment experience we’ve ever had.
And even if you do decide to live here, they’ll push you out with a renewal that’s $400 more a month.

Hello Aurora,
We genuinely strive to make every resident’s experience as positive as possible. Regarding the water heater issue, while it took a couple of visits to determine the best solution, we did replace the unit as soon as it was clear that it... could not be repaired. We also provided a temporary solution with access to another unit to use until the issue was resolved.
As for the street racing on Highway 36, unfortunately, there’s not much we can do to control that external noise and that the local authorities should have been contacted.
We haven’t received maintenance requests for some of the other issues you mentioned, but if we had been notified, we would have been more than happy to assist in getting them addressed right away.
We wish you the best in your new home and if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us.
