  • Move in process

    October 9, 2025
    The move in process was pretty easy. The leasing office explained all the rules and regulations for the property and gave me handouts for commonly asked questions or concerns. Additionally, the city of Waukegan requires a permit to park so I’m glad they told me about that in advance so I wouldn’t get a ticket !

  • Don’t trust on pictures

    February 22, 2023
    We live there for 1 year, we think we will have a bigger place for all the pictures tat we saw in the website but I was really small, and we stay there but then at the second month of rent they raised up the rent and it was kind of unfair. Also the hallway always was sticky. But all the stuff was really nice.
