Great staff, nice apartments. Parking needs to be addressed through higher management. Would be nice to see washer and dryers upgrades as you have to dry clothes 2-3 times and runs power bill up.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review - we honestly couldn't agree more about the walkability, we LOVE being so close to everything including the community center, the parks, safeway and 7-11. It makes everything feel so convenient. We are... so happy to hear you have great neighbors too, thank you for being apart of our community!
