Over all the apartments are pretty nice, the grounds are nice and tropical (but don't be fooled by the photos on there website), the pools are really nice, the could use a bigger gym facility, but also, it's expensive.

The location is good and close to the freeway and there are lots of restaurants in walking distance, but no grocery or convenient store.

Security was my biggest concerns after having my Harley Davidson stolen from the underground gated garage (I know of three others that lost motorcycles).

They only have 3 security guards working at a time for a community with what seems like a 1000 residents or more.

There is also a no pet policy that doesn't seem to be enforced, I see people with dogs all the time.

Over all, if you don't have the bad luck I had, it an OK place to live.

mrbigsmurf - please email me at sm55555@hotmail.com with your motorcycle theft story or at least a contact email... my sportbike was just stolen last sunday and I'm looking into some options. Any info you have on the other motorcycle theft victims would help also.
