    I love living here, the community is very quiet, the neigbors are kind, parking is easily accessible, and the ammenities this place has to offer are great. This is easily a top pick when compared to other appartments and communities elsewhere.

    I've lived in the property for a little over a year and I love it. The area is nice and quiet and the people living in the community are friendly for the most part. I would definitely recommend the properties to others.
