Having grown up in Virginia Beach until the age of 10 ( 1982 ) , and then moving to Maryland with my family.......I always dreamed of "coming back home" . So after my Marine Corps career was finished and I was now married with a beautiful daughter and had a career , the urge to find a way home was present daily. Well , in July 2015 I noticed the corporate entity I worked for in Maryland had just acquired a location in Portsmouth. "it's now or never" , I told myself. After consulting my wife and
...daughter , we agreed that I would apply for a relocation. I had an interview in Portsmouth in mid July. Came down to Virginia Beach , had my interview that Friday and was offered the job with an August 17th start date. We did not have very much time. We visited several communities. Then we found Red Mill Landing and Pam , the property manager. The moment we met Pam , she was very kind and understanding of the stresses we were under as our life was about to dramatically change. She took us on a tour of the property and the landscaping was one of the first things we recognized. It is absolutely beautiful. There are multiple fountains in small lakes / ponds that immediately provided a sense of much needed calm to my wife and I. After our tour , we were accepted minutes later and now the clock was ticking.......tick , tock , tick , tock .
So here we are , October 1st. We have officially lived here for a month and a half. As a dad , husband and former Marine , the welfare , safety and quality of life for my family is a top priority, Red Mil Landing has given that to me / us. The property is beautiful. It has a 24 hour fitness center and business center. It has a veranda with two gas grills and tables for cooking out so even though we live in an apartment , we can still enjoy the luxury of cooking on a grill . It has a beautiful pool with a waterfall and plenty of lounge chairs. It is very quiet and such a peaceful place to come home to after a long day at work . Our apartment overlooks the pool area which has a lake and water fountain next to it. We love sitting on our deck , reading our favorite book and listening to the fountains in the background. Did I mention how calming that was ? lol. It is even better on cool nights when you can open your windows and listen to them as you fall asleep. Worth every penny ! Our apartment is modern and clean. Huge bathrooms and new appliances. Red Mill Landing is a dream come true. This is more than an apartment , it's home.
