Newly, built and maintained property. Staff is very professional, organized, and accessible. Management has taken action to remove non-tenant vehicles which helps to have ample parking. Some tenants are very neat. Others tend to live unkempt. As we move into the 4th and 5th years of existence it would be nice to evaluate stair and hallway carpeting for extraction as well as touch up painting.

I personally love living here. It’s quiet, the property staff is friendly and helpful and al thought I’ve had to request for several different maintenance issues the maintenance team has always showed up within a timely matter and fixed everything properly.
