    The office and maintenance people are a pleasure to deal with here. Whenever there has been an issue they have taken care of it. Only a few maintenance issues needed attention but the system and the people responded promptly.

    I love living here, the staff is wonderful, maintenance is reliable, quick, and quality work is done. Love the size and layout of the apartment. Love the pet stations and all of the options for walking my dog, love that I can have a gate at my patio so I can sit out there with my dog without a leash. My only complaint is snow removal. The front walk doesn't always get shoveled and sidewalks are dangerous. I'm 64, have rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis in my hip. I moved here so I didn't have ...
    to shovel. I just can't do it anymore. There are salt buckets at each exit, and I do salt, but salt takes time, and a lot of the sidewalks aren't completely cleared either. My rheumatologist recommends walking and my pup needs walking. But when it snows it's just not safe for me to walk. I did renew my lease as I do love it here with regard to everything else. I just wish snow removal was better.

    The staff in office and maintenance are so wonderful. If you have any problems they are on it. Close to Casey's, HyVee and Fareway. Walmart and Dollar General is close. Plenty of restaurants to choose from. Did I mention laundry in apartment.

    Living in this apartment has been a great experience. The apartment itself is spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the neighborhood is quiet and welcoming. Management is friendly and helpful, and maintenance requests are handled quickly. I’ve felt safe and at home here, and I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a quality place to live.

    Honestly, there is nothing in my unit and space that i don’t like. Then to add on, all of the amenities ironwood comes with is great. I don’t have to worry about walking 3 flights of stairs to get to the laundry room anymore and it is such a great relief. Among the laundry room, there is also a dishwasher, tall ceilings, great paint on the walls, and huge closets. That’s all just on the inside.. there is also a pool to enjoy in the summer and a gym that is easily accessible and nice!
