    Nice place to live

    5/5 Jamesetta M. on Apr 1, 2020

    I feel that it is a good place to live. Not noisy at all. Everyone seem to be pleasant. The pets are nice and good behavior. Sometime people don't pick up pet waste. Overall it's decent.

    Yes the apartments are very beautiful and I would like to know a little bit more about them and is there an application fee because I do not have dogs or cat so that's why I was going ahead but it's a quiet neighborhood I know some people that used to live there but didn't even got to stay and my brother used to live up off of hard road so I will give this excellent thought and I would just like to know when I can be able to check them out again
