    Love living here it's probably the first apartment complex where I am not having to deal with noisy neighbors or constant break-ins. Love my amenities with yard and view, friendly staff and appropriate Rent price. Valet is always on time, never have had a lost package very clean and spacious apartments.

    3.5/5 Jc on Aug 17, 2022

    Area and location is great. The gym needs weights, water, and cleaning supplies. The pool is annoying closed to often and we pay for these amenities. ALSO THE BATHROOM in pool area is never cleaned, never any toilet paper or paper towels. I clean and bring my own every time I go and it's gross they really need to fix this. The pool patio sets never have their umbrellas up, even in this texas heat. Grill need to be clean more often. Never any emails on updates for location of any type.

    I've lived here for almost 3 years. It is in a superb location, close to all major highways. My two apartments I've lived in were fresh with new paint and flooring. The management gals - Susan and Crystal are the best. They are dedicated to making this property community friendly and well taken care of. Max and Michael do a fantastic job at maintenance. It's tough to choose which is better - the management or the maintenance! Anytime I've had a problem, it's been taken care of quickly, often within 2 hours. You can't get that service owning a home!! Susan is very engaging, always ready to chat when you go in to get a package delivered. That's a plus also - your packages won't get taken by porch pirates when they're delivered to the office. Susan has strivved to make this a fun community with Christmas wrapping events, Halloween decoration contests and pet costume contests. Both the office gals are committed to assisting residents in any and all issues. Bottom line, I wouldn't live anyplace else!

    Great staff, quick turn-around for any maintenance issues!
