You won't find another complex like this in Knoxville. I tend to think of it as if a townhouse, apartment, and a condo all had a baby. Also, the space is cut up in a usable way, not like the new houses you might find around town and ask yourself why...

PROS:
Hands down the nicest complex in Knoxville.

Staff is always friendly and takes the time to learn people by names, not apartment numbers. Will usually stop to chat, and will always wave a hello, even if you run into them off the property. They are always willing to go out of their way to make sure the customer is accomdated and happy. They were the deciding factor for me as to where I made my choice to live

Extremely clean units, club house, pool, hot tub, grounds, etc all kept sparkling clean.

This place has insulation! (I tend to think my last place did not)

Location is great. Can easily get to all kinds of eateries, shopping, and interstates. Also many back roads for the days when traffic sucks on kingston pike or cedar bluff.

CONS:
The price is a little steep, but I place that blame squarely on the housing market in Knoxville, not the complex. Prices in the area are sky rocketing and to find something of comparable space/value would easily cost 400 or 500 above what the rent is, though it obviously this was not that big of a hinderance :)

Parking seems to be a slight issue for 1% of the occupancy. All of the units have at least 3 parking spots available to them, but some people park on the roads at places that are not very safe (ie they block vision at turns or can cause some confusion at turns).

I think the builder should have had some foresight and put in a watering system for the grounds. Though the staff have been able to keep the grounds looking nice, it would have made life easier on them to have a sprinkler system.
