Cortland is a great community. The area is beautiful with so many nature conservation areas and being in the middle of a neighborhood. The staff is always quick to respond whether it's a maintenance request or a question to the Leasing office. I've been to a few of the community events and they're so much fun and allow me to meet my neighbors.

Jackie, Heidy, Desirée and the Cortland Independence application and move-in experience were absolutely nothing short of •stellar• We have now been residents for nearly 2 months, and the communication (if needed) care and overall attention to detail has been first class.

It's a good community, but analyze the cost-benefit, in terms of customer service for renting it's one thing, when it comes to solving problems nothing can be done (but there are exceptions because for some people they can)

The community is safe and peaceful, with easy access to the best schools, and plenty of space for various types of activities that bring us closer to nature, whether alone, with family or friends. The staff is always helpful and friendly. The facilities and clubhouse are excellent. I would definitely recommend it and we are very happy to be part of this community.
