    Not a bad community, but the units are over priced for what you pay for. No real amenities, forced valet trash service (which you have to pay for), no security, the Laundromat on site was dismantled in efforts to now charge an additional fee for stackable laundry appliances. I've been a resident for 8 years and have seen 6 different management companies run this community, all with bad reviews on the BBB website. Do your homework before committing to a final decision.

    This place is really quiet and maintenance is really responsive within a timely manner

    3/5 Anonymous on Jan 28, 2024

    This community used to be a great place to live with amenities that were accessible to all (Not this past summer or last for that matter). Now, prices have increased well past the value for the apartments, the office staff feel detached from the people who live here and the people living in the complex have stopped caring about the rules (noise, parking and trash) and the environment of the community. This is a such a pretty complex. The apartments are old (old appliances, rugs and color scheme) and need to be updated..

    Excellent, except for one tenant loud music and a certain odor from that comes from their apartment late at night.

    When I first moved here , it was really nice especially for the price. It was going to be temporary because I had just moved here from out of state and have a house in Calabash. I needed a place for work in Greensboro just off the 68, but since then it has declined, still a great value because they have not increased rent as much as I thought they would in 6 years. It really just needs sprucing up and the apartments could use a remodel, they really show their age
