If you carefully examine the positive reviews, you will notice that most are either from individuals taking tours or new residents. The office frequently encourages new residents to leave favorable reviews. In this review, I will focus solely on factual observations and exclude personal opinions or experiences.
Facility Conditions:
Walking through the property reveals several issues, including but not limited to exposed wires, metal rods protruding from the ground, dry-rotted wood, and deteriorating walkways. These conditions pose safety hazards and reflect poor maintenance practices.
Security:
The security team is difficult to reach. The provided phone number leads to a voicemail, and the general manager has stated that residents must leave a message and request a callback to speak with them. Even after leaving multiple voicemails, calls are rarely returned, leaving residents without adequate support.
Maintenance:
Repairs that require purchasing or replacing items often take months to complete, and residents must repeatedly remind the office. It is unclear whether these delays are due to management withholding funds or other reasons. The quality of service varies significantly depending on the assigned maintenance staff. While two of the personnel are skilled at repairs, others often exacerbate issues, requiring the more experienced staff to correct their mistakes.
Amenities:
The pool has not remained open for an entire season in the past four years. Additionally, the pool is not heated, despite claims on the website.
The gym consistently lacks paper towels and wipes, requiring residents to notify the office each time. The gym door frequently malfunctions, and people have been locked inside. To use the game room or movie theater, residents must place a deposit. The firepit was only recently repaired after residents complained for over a year. The grills were cleaned once after months of complaints but remain in poor condition. The printers in the business center are perpetually out of ink, and repeated requests to refill the cartridges are ignored. The jacuzzi has been out of service for at least a year. Recently, the office sent an email stating that it is beyond repair.
Landscaping is poorly maintained, with trails and common areas falling apart. The walking trails are hazardous, with multiple rods sticking out of the ground, causing several people to trip.
Parking:
Parking is a significant issue. The property uses a third-party service to enforce parking rules, which often results in visitors’ cars being booted if they are not registered in the system. Cars parked slightly over the line are also booted, even in tight parking spaces. Finding parking after 6 p.m. is nearly impossible.
Office Practices:
The office enforces rules selectively, often only when it is beneficial to them. For example, there is a list of prohibited dog breeds for the complex. However, several of these breeds can be seen on the property, and many residents do not properly train their dogs.
Additionally, previous reviews indicate that several residents have complained about not receiving their deposit back, even after the 30-day waiting period stated in the contract. Don’t be misled by the attractive pictures of the complex’s exterior. It’s unclear whether they are edited or outdated, but the property looks nothing like what is shown in the photos.
Conclusion:
Based on these observations, I would not recommend this property to anyone. Regarding the apartment’s response to my review, I am unable to reply directly to their response, so I will address it here. Everything outlined in my review reflects issues that I and other residents have raised numerous times. If management truly cared about improving the living conditions, these concerns would have been addressed by now.
