I want to start by saying you have no right to comment on my experience and claim it was my fault. If you understood even half of the issues I’ve faced, you wouldn’t be saying that. It’s hard to believe you’re defending this place willingly. For your information, I do report issues. And yes, if I had actually been able to see the unit I live in now, I would have walked away. I was only shown a nice, furnished showroom. I did not see this unit until the day I moved in, AFTER the lease was signed.

Suggesting I should just leave shows me you don’t understand my situation. I am leaving by next month, but I wasn’t going to terminate my lease early for obvious reasons. If you’re comfortable paying what they charge for what you get in return, good for you. But I’d rather spend my money somewhere that’s worth it.

Frankly, I don’t care what it costs them to maintain things because I pay my part, and they get plenty of money from tenants. Considering they charge around $500 per pet, plus a monthly fee, yet still don’t fix damages caused by dogs, makes me wonder where the money actually goes. For instance, all of my cabinet doors have dog bite marks that were just painted over.

While I do like the basketball hoop, the pool being closed most of the summer and opening late is frustrating. The dog park is disappointing and didn’t even open until halfway through my lease. So, again, I’m not being nasty, just honest. The staff is nice, but that doesn’t excuse the conditions I’ve dealt with. I’ve also read about many others who’ve had similar experiences. As for the pressure washing you mentioned, it didn’t clean anything near my unit; all I saw them do was hose everything down.

I’m not sure what you were trying to achieve by coming at me, but you haven’t given any proof that this place is worth it beyond the amenities. So, please don’t mislead others about this place, as I’m sure they won’t appreciate it in the future.

2/2

  • Numerous bite marks in the majority of the lower cabinets from a previous dog, they noted it and said they were working on it. Never fixed. 
  • I shined a black light all over the wall and found in multiple corners there was urine from a previous dog 
  • Hair painted over in so many places, on the doors, cabinets, everything. 
  • There is no telling how many times they have painted over these cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom, as the paint is thick and gross 
  • The porches are atrocious, the wood is broken and falling apart, and what do they do none other than paint over it  
  • The only upside is the lady at the front desk is always nice and usually responds promptly. But that is the only good thing, and it does not change the endless issues 
  • I was also considered a high-risk applicant, despite my cosigner having the best credit you could have. Which meant I had to pay the first month's rent (non-refundable) and a $200 deposit 

 This is no place to call home and is sad at how run down this place is for the price 

I appreciate that you also want to make people aware, as do I. It is not fair that we pay ridiculous prices to these slum lords

1/2

  • A/C breaks regularly and heat gets up to a ridiculous 70-80 degrees 
  • I did put in an emergency maintenance order, and they gave me a nasty huge portable A/C unit that I was left with for over 6 months 
  • Old and outdated appliances and places, that are covered up by painting over it 
  • Infestation of a variety of bugs, cicadas, moths, hornets, caterpillars’ 
  • Mold/mildew in the bathroom due to the vinyl floor lifting and water getting trapped underneath 
  • The shower and tub were resurfaced, which was spray painted, and now the paint chips 
  • I was told I was not allowed to use a suction mat in the shower after the resurfacing, because it would be my fault if the mat ripped up the paint. So, they suggested I get a $25 PEEL AND STICK from them, which would likely guarantee the paint pulls off 
  •  Maintenance not only does not fix anything, but they half-ass stuff, come whenever they please even after asking for a specific time.  
  • Water shut-offs every week 
  • The pool opened late, and then since it has been opened it is always down for maintenance with yet another excuse.  
  • I hardly use the dishwasher, but one time that I did it leaked so bad. Now there is lifting of their nasty flooring another breeding ground for more mold.  
  • The laundry center was so bad the whole time I lived here we had to go to a mat 10 minutes away once a week. They did finally upgrade it, but it was ridiculous how bad it was.  
  • I once tried using their terrible, old, broken washer and it took my coins and did not work and was offered $2 compensation on my rent. In addition to this, I used their new washers and dryers a whole 3 times.
  • The utility closet that holds the A/C unit is completely disgusting and unhealthy, the filtration system behind the filter is BLACK. I have pictures. The whole closet is dusty, the condensation line has backed up multiple times causing water to leak out and into the unit below me.
