Our Review

Since a new management team arrived (Shauna, Michael, Amy), residents report cleaner apartments, visible repairs to hallways and pool, and notably friendlier staff. However, scattered complaints persist: maintenance backlogs lasting weeks, AC outages unresolved for over a month, pest issues on the first floor, broken elevators, and billing confusion including disputed charges and missing refunds. Security remains a concern, with reports of car break-ins and a gate system that forces residents toward unsafe side exits. The community feels in transition, with strong appreciation for recent improvements undercut by inconsistent follow-through on repairs and office reachability during business hours.

Praised for
  • friendly and professional staff (Shauna, Michael, Amy)
  • visible improvements and maintenance work
  • amenities (pool, decor, finishes)
  • helpful leasing process
Watch-outs
  • slow maintenance response, some issues unresolved for weeks/months
  • billing and deposit disputes, unexplained charges
  • security problems: car break-ins, gate system broken
  • staff turnover and past management issues
  • pest and cleanliness problems, elevators broken
  • unresponsive office during posted hours

Best for: Seniors comfortable with renovation-in-progress; those prioritizing friendly staff over immediate perfection.
Think twice if: Long-term residents or those intolerant of slow maintenance response; security concerns (past stabbings, car break-ins, gate failures) warrant careful review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What amenities are included?
Resort-style pool, gated courtyard, on-site maintenance, hardwood flooring, balconies/patios, full-sized kitchens, and large closets. The pool was recently repaired and hallway upgrades are underway.
Is the management responsive to repair requests?
Recent management (Shauna, Michael, Amy) has earned praise for communication, but some repairs still move slowly. Tenants report maintenance delays of a week or longer; one AC outage lasted 41 days before a window unit was provided.
Are there security concerns?
Multiple reviews mention car break-ins, a malfunctioning security gate system that forces use of unsafe side exits, and a past incident where a staff member was stabbed. These are resident-reported concerns worth investigating before leasing.

Five-star reviews praise the leasing staff (especially Alex and Dulce) and quick maintenance response when contacted; long-term residents report a clean, peaceful community. However, multiple one-star reviews cite persistent roaches, mold problems that reoccur after repairs, air conditioning failures in heat, and billing surprises months after move-out. The property presents well on tours but struggles with follow-through on pest control and structural maintenance.

Residents and prospects describe a split experience. Some praise the modern units and highlight staff like Tina and Robertina for genuine help and smooth leasing, while others praise organized events and friendly neighbors. However, a substantial portion report serious issues: roach infestations in move-in-ready units, staff rudeness (particularly from an employee named Norma), poor apartment condition at turnover, slow or incomplete maintenance repairs, and deposit disputes without clear communication. New residents report arriving to apartments with broken fixtures, dirty carpets, and pest problems that suggest inadequate turnover cleaning and inspection standards. Move-in experience and ongoing maintenance are the weak points. While some staff members stand out as helpful and the community itself has potential, systemic issues with unit preparation and management responsiveness appear to persist, creating a stark contrast between the modern aesthetic and the lived experience.
