    • Review for staff

      May 28, 2025
      An abundance of resources available to the community. Community events and responsive maintenance. I was almost evicted, the resources helped me catch up on payments and keep my apartment. This review is for staff only, not the conditions or the patrons of the community. It’s probably one of the most affordable properties I was able to find for 3 bedrooms. You get what you pay for. The staffs service is great and it’s affordable.

    • Great Staff

      June 5, 2024
      I have been living here for almost two years, and I would have to say I had NO problems. The staff was very efficient and have been very professional and always made sure that my daughter and I were well taken care of. Any and ALL requests that were made, were always taken care of in a timely fashion, as the customer service was always a priority. If I wasn't leaving due to job relocation I would still be here!

We do have regularly scheduled pest control service the community. We ask that residents let us know should they need extra service.
