    My experience living here is quite and safe, my neighbors are friendly especially the new tenants, always offering to lend me a extra hand when I have several bags of groceries to bring in. In my Unit the front doors to the walkway are always free of debris and trash. Sometimes I find a good treasure when I am taking the trash out, it is like wow! This household item is in mint condition I will take it home with me! I love all the pets here they are friendly and very well groomed. My apartment is very well structured, beautiful wood flooring, cozy gas fireplace, My WIC (walk in closets) are a must that I do have even in my sons room, spacious bathroom with closets for towels and bath products, even a kitchen bar that I have 2 barstools sitting at! I am a good decorator and very neat. Whenever I put a work order in it is done before I come home from work. Great job Maintenance Crew! When there is a freeze we tenants are notified as to when and how long to let our faucets drip so our pipes won't freeze, and the Security Officer is always on call no matter what. Don't forget the pond with all the cute turtles, my son enjoys feeding them on Saturday mornings. Leasing office staff is so passionate about their work, very patient and understanding. I could go on and on but you get the picture so come on aboard!

    Great quality of life, nice neighbors, incredible views, the coolest pool ever, grilling area is awesome. It is almost like living on a cruise ship. It is nice to not have to do yard work like I have had to for the previous 45 years of my life. Furthermore, it just feels really calm and peaceful looking out at the water from my balcony. Maintenance always responds quickly.
