    • absolutely terrible

      January 13, 2024
      The only thing worse than the empty promises made is the lack of maintenance and care shown at all. Would avoid
      Review from Apartments.com
    • horrible building, even worse management

      June 20, 2021
      The apartment building is almost as horrible as the company managing the property. Since moving in, there have been several safety issues, plumbing problems, and the apartment I rented was not move in ready, it was also filthy. The dog park is full of broken glass and dog poop and if you try to get in touch with the management, you will be ignored. Save yourself the mold exposure and frustration and do not move into this dump.
