A friend of mine once called this place the island of misfit toys. I have actually grown to appreciate their 'endearing' assessment of 'the village'. I like the place, now that it has been a couple of years... Don't believe the person that says you will neither notice, nor hear the highway. Perhaps they are extremely hard of hearing....pretend it is a giant river. It is loud. However, the bedrooms buried at the backs of the units, and therefore nicely sheltered form overnight noise. You really can't hear from there, which is a huge relief. If you pass out on your living room floor, an 18 wheeler will gently wake you up about 4 in the morning. Management is very good; downtown and schools minutes away - literally; nice views; good prices. Overall aestheitic needs work, and I am sure subject to tight budgets. I would like the pool to be better kept, but it is relaxing on hot summer days. Good neighbors.
