  • Not worth it

    September 6, 2022
    This apartment complex is so mediocre for the price of it. The people who live here have no respect for the property. Trash is consistently on the side of the road or in the grass areas and management does not care to do anything about it or fine the people who are littering. Many many people have gotten their cars broken into or stolen and the complex does have cameras but refuses to do anything with the footage, and is no help what so ever when a car is broken into. Also I love how they put the ...
    pool as the first photo for the main attraction. Its barely ever open. They open it late in the summer and use excuses that don't even make sense and then close it early whenever there is an inconvenience instead of getting it fixed. The pool house is also not allowed to be used. When we first moved in, management had told us that we would be able to rent out the pool house for events such as birthday parties or graduations. But once we requested to rent the pool house out, they said that wasn't allowed and that I couldn't. The pool house is also locked daily. They have a full kitchen, dining and living room area that is closed off and never used. The only portion thats open is the bathrooms and workout rooms. Management is also just bad at responding. There office is always locked and they prefer to talk on the phone vs just talking in person. Although I will say the repair people are super awesome and super nice and can fix just about anything very quickly.
