    Acacia Gardens looks great. Very clean and quiet

    5/5 Luz A. on Oct 1, 2023

    Living in Acacia since January of 2021 I have enjoyed my privacy and weather. Neighbors have been pleasantly friendly. I have liked having my own washer and dryer to do my laundry as needed. The grounds upkeep has been on schedule.

    Moved in a month ago and we cannot be happier. Andrew is an excellent leasing agent - honest, integrity, polite and strong communicator. He is very personable, has great taste in sports teams and is an encyclopedia about music. Great neighbors, friendly people, and just pleasant place to live. The only thing i wished they had was a recycle bin. I just take it to the va.
