At park winds you will get more bang for your buck then the west side. These spacious one, two or three bedroom units come with standard amenities such as; dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, range and ceiling fans in each bedroom as well as balconies. Large double wide or walkin closets while some units offer washer and dryer. Pets are welcome and garages are available on a limited basis. They have a theatre and community room , as well as a fitness center and playground for the kids. Several ...
