      I’m going on five years here at Courtland Desert Ridge. How fast the time flies. And you know what? I like it here! Sure, I could go on about the heated pools, awesome Fitness Center, upscaled amenities and great support from the front office staff and maintenance team; but really, it’s the peacefulness of living here. Morning and Evening walks are common. Everyone waves and says hi. And after a long day at work, that sure is nice to come home to. Yep, I’m staying!??

      I highly recommend Cortland properties. Staff is great and any maintenance issues you may have are taken care of in a reasonable time frame which is nice. Units have a comfortable welcome home feel that other complexes do not. Grounds and amenities are cleaned regularly I checked out several complexes in the area when I was looking to rent and Cortland Properties was the best
