Resident 2008 - 2011

Been here just over 3 years and absolutely love living here. My girlfriend lived here first in a 1 bedroom for about a year, we decided to move in together and got a 3 bedroom unit together which we shared for a little over a year. Then things didn't work out and we split up, I then got a 1 bedroom unit in the same building. I know that's a lot of personal drama, but what is cool is that the apartment people work with us through all of those transitions, letting us transfer deposits, make special arrangements, etc. The location is what makes it so great. High up on a hill, you are surrounded by the Chattahoochee National Park, so you can walk to the river everyday. Someone with a dog or someone who loves trail running will love living here. In fact a lot of people with dogs do live here, and it helps keep the neighborhood safe, because it works as a sort of built in neighborhood watch, somebody is always out walking their dog, and I ve always felt very safe in this neighborhood. The buildings themselves are a little bit old but the staff do a good job of maintaining them and updating them, and I have never had a major maintenance problem. The grounds are very attractive and the amenities are great, pool. BBQ, a racquetball court. I don t have a washer and dryer and use the laundry facilities, which take your card so you don t even have to worry about quarters. There is even a place to wash your car. There seems to be very little turn over in the neighborhood, many of my neighbors have been here longer than I have. There seem to be a lot of children here too, but not too many teenagers, one thing the place could use is a playground, so the kids wouldn t always be playing in the pool or street, not really sure where they could put that though. Being on top of the hill does have a couple of drawbacks, if you need to utilize public transportation it s a bit of hike, but there is a bus stop at the bottom of the hill. The street really needs a sidewalk too, but that has nothing to do with the apartment complex. Oh and when it snows, it is impossible to get out of the place because the hill ices over. I would highly recommend the place, I grew up in Atlanta fel that this is one of the nicest places you can live.
