Some Audacity

I love living here, there are a few issues i have listed below: 1. Still no mail box, its been almost 2 months! 2. Sent request my first few days here, my shower was leaking behind the wall and flooding my dining room, then after having to wash towels for a solid week, you still charged me for water! 3. I told my insurance provider I lived in a secure building, but its not hooked up, so I have to pay extra! Finish the install on the doors, and I will hand deliver my insurance policy, well after it shows up in my mailbox. 4. My kitchen light? C’Mon people, i managed 5 McDonalds corporate restaurants, I currently manage 72 trucking routes, with 72 drivers! I deal with the post offices in Iowa, FOLLOW UP!

BR Review

Ee have enjoyed living here. Things I wish would get better: refridgerators need updated with ice machines, Fee instances where paint touch ups, caroet cleaning and where someone was suppose to finish a job—didnt get done. Really think the place foukd use good air duct—dryer duct cleaning. Also airflow throughout the townhome is not good. Rent is steep and water billhas tripled with no explanation. But overall I do really like it here.

We love it here!

My husband and I chose this place because of the amenities, we are now onto our 2nd lease because we love it that much. Our place feels like a home, the neighbors are great, and the staff are very helpful when you have a question/concern. I would recommend this place to anyone
