    These apartments are literally in such a great area, plus the staff here is super nice and helpful! There’s plenty of parking and the apartments themselves are very well kept. Def worth taking a tour on.

  • Don’t move here

    July 6, 2019
    If I could give no stars I would. Apartments look nice and all at first but they don’t fix anything before you move in. They just paint over it and charge you when you move out. The staff will feed you false information then lie about it later never in the office when they say they are supposed to be open so good luck paying rent on time if you work a normal job. They told us we weren’t allowed to fix any thing before move out or would be charged. They can’t keep employees in the office long ...
    enough to know anything and don’t tell you after they give false information. Overall worst apartment complex I have felt with. I suggest not living here. Tried to get me to pay extra money to them when I moved in so I had to break down the statement and show them how they were wrong. And Allie still tried to argue. If you live here all ready good luck and if you don’t I suggest you find somewhere that just doesn’t want extra money.

    Don't move here. The maintenance never comes, they attack you with hidden fees, and they care far more about making an extra dollar than making the customer happy. Once you sign the lease you're screwed. Been forced to live here for the past two years and it's been by far my worst experience with a company and they're only getting worse as they install new management every few months.
