    "I honestly can't believe how enjoyable my move into this apartment was. From the moment I arrived, everything felt easy and welcoming. But the absolute highlight? My incredible neighbors and Jody Gore our Assistant Community Manager! They've made this place feel like home faster than I ever imagined, and I'm already thinking I might just stay here indefinitely. Highly recommend!"

    Kudos to Jody at Caroline Woods in Long neck, Delaware! She’s a great asset. She always had time along with a smile and made the process very easy. We could all use more of her.
