    I was really disappointed at the shape of the pool. Broken chairs piled in a corner, large rusty bolts sticking out of the cement due to the handicapped chair taken away and stacked in a corner, plus rough spots inside the pool. Still not keeping the garbage picked up around the complex. The rent keeps going up but the complex is really looking shabby. The children's slides are getting rusty and pieces broken off of some of the plastic parts. Weeds that jab your feet in the grass near the ...

    The staff does everything they can do to make sure that things are taken care of. However, there are no cameras on this property. No locks on the garage doors from the hallway.

    So far the experience has been pretty good. I enjoy living here. The property bills itself as a luxury apartment but there isn't anything here, I would consider luxury. It's nice having a washer/dryer in the unit and the fireplace is a nice touch. But again, I wouldn't consider it luxury, just nice and there is nothing wrong with that.

    So far everyone I’ve met has been nice and helpful. There’s been one person or so who’s maybe not the best but overall it’s good. I haven’t met too many people.

    My only complaint is that our buildings are not secure. Even the oldest apartments in town have secured entrances. Our garages should also be secure...especially since we are charged monthly fee for them. Too much theft has happened recently and we should be able to feel a lot more safe than that!
