What we found

Most residents credit Shannon, Jackie, Averie, Chantel, and other staff for patient, transparent guidance through leasing and move-in. Apartments are consistently praised as spacious and clean, with recreational areas and responsive daily support.

Yet serious residents report promotion promises withdrawn at signing, move-out charges exceeding $100 per month, broken doors and trash collection failures, and package theft. Management's handling of disputes draws repeated complaints of avoidance and rudeness.

Recent shift: Recent five-star reviews (2-4 months old) center on leasing and move-in experience; the most critical one-star review (3 months old) documents systematic move-out billing and maintenance concerns, suggesting a shift in property standards or management practices since new leadership.

4.7(210)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Bobby from maintenance stands out for rapid response, genuine care, and going well beyond standard duties. The leasing and management teams (Charity, Dimesha, Lisa) handle applications and resident concerns with professionalism and speed. Amenities are clean and spacious, the complex feels safe, and move-in experiences are smooth. However, the far out lounge generates significant noise until midnight on event nights, staff communication has recently slipped, and parking design is cramped. Recent residents note the place has shifted: leasing office doors closed mid-day, calls and emails going unanswered, and hallway odors in some buildings. Stolen packages brought dismissive rather than helpful responses. These issues feel newer and stand in contrast to the strong fundamentals that earned the 4.7 rating.

Leasing agents like Renee, Alyssa, and Robert earn consistent praise for helpfulness and courtesy during tours and move-in. Once resident, many face slow maintenance response, unresolved emails, leadership turnover, and billing problems that feel mismatched to premium pricing.

The leasing team earns consistent praise for professionalism and warmth, and many residents feel genuinely safe and settled here. However, a smaller but vocal group report serious gaps: maintenance delays on major repairs, pest problems management refuses to address, inconsistent rule enforcement, and allegations of retaliation when tenants complain. Those experiences span months of broken plumbing, unpainted walls, and uncleaned vacant units. Safety concerns also run deeper than typical neighborhood noise-residents cite shootings, police visits multiple times weekly, and roaches near the pool area. A handful of positive reviews may reflect newer residents or shorter stays; longer-term tenants document a different property altogether.
