Preserve at Mobbly Bay: Mixed review (Not Recommending)

2009-03-28T13:10:16-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I understand in any apartment complex there are going to be noisy neighbors and other issues the management team can not control (large dogs barking at all hours, tenants not keeping his/her dog on a leash, car break-ins, etc.).
