    The location of this property is hard to beat, being a 5-minute walk to Old Town square and a 5-minute walk to the Poudre River Trail! When the sidewalks are snowy, there's always a private sunny patio with each apartment and a community sundeck for meeting new friends. The ladies at the front desk were easy to reach when we needed help, and always greeted us with a smile. :)

  • Non-refundable administrative fee.

    August 9, 2022
    Careful applying, you will be charged a non-refundable administrative fee from $500-1000 just to apply for a unit. No guarantee of approval. They say it's higher instead of a security deposit, but you pay a security deposit after approval not before.

    • Property Manager Responded

      August 12, 2022
      Thank you for your feedback. At the time of the application there is a small application fee of $14.50 and a $200 holding deposit per apartment that is credited toward your move-in. The administrative fee would only be billed upon approval and move in. We welcome your feedback, and would love the opportunity to discuss your concerns further with you. Please give us a call at (970) 829-0016 where a member of our team will be happy to assist.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
