      Was here a while and now leaving due to high rent increases and no communication from management. Also, service requests aren’t followed through and completed… Price is high for non luxury apartments and no amenities.

      So far your leasing office (Jewel) has made this a seamless process. The location is perfect and the amenities look lovely. The apartment itself is beautiful, looking forward to soaking in the tub and having in unit washer and dryer will make things much easier. The kitchen storage and stainless steel appliances are such a nice touch. My move in date isn't until the 31st but I'm looking forward to it.

      Quite community, residents mostly keep to themselves, but all interactions are friendly. Would love to see some simple amenities such as a small playground/swings for kids added. There are also a fair amount of dogs, I feel the community would also benefit from a dog wash. Both things I feel could help this complex simply help build some community as well as keep up with other complexes in the area
