Bryan is The Best Maintenance Man!

Bryan is The Best Maintenance Man! Lawrence had a Blizzard on Sunday, January 5, 2025. Bryan did a fine job clearing our sidewalks. He does his job well in all seasons. Kind regards, Joyce Pearl Jones

Highly recommend

So many great things about this community!! The location is fantastic and the apartment is a perfect size and floor plan. Anna and Janis in the office are fantastic and that makes such a difference when you’re moving and getting adjusted. What you see is what you get and it’s been great! Thank you
