Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Good unit, “landlord special” repairs

Pros

The apartment is spacious, is pet friendly, has central air, and yard access. Management is responsive.

Cons

Management will come to your house and not fix anything. Ever. We’ve had a leak running through our ceiling and walls for years and they just spackle over it.

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Nice apt but not worth the price

Very spacious apt with high ceilings

Cons

High Electric Bills I live on first floor and hallway entry sound is very loud Garbage piles up Management can be better with maintenance requests. They only patch problems not truly fix them

Advice to the owners

Dont patch the problems. We have had recurring issues every year living here
