    The location by the lake is fantastic. Very sound proof walls

    4/5 Anonymous on Jan 3, 2025

    Overall this is a great location close to Green Lake and all of its commerce, restaurants, etc. There is a lot of turnover in the management office and the responses have been very delayed from time to time. That said, it has been a good, clean place to live.
