    I like living here. Yadi is my go to girl

    5/5 S R. on Dec 16, 2024

    We enjoyed touring the community; very clean walking in. Customer service was an A+ with April and the other lady we spoke with, Shane, who answered all of our questions about the area and community. Very pleased with the tour and the size of the apartment. Definitely on our list. When we came back to the clubhouse we met Yadi who offered us snacks for our travels of touring communities today.
