Resident 1998 - 2004

11/23/2004

I moved here as a single mom and could barely afford it. But the location was great and I was really impressed with the place. I felt it was very safe so the money was worth it. Several years later I married and we moved to the townhouse. My husband is retirement age and we want to travel so we didn't want to be tied down to a home. This is perfect for us. I have found that every year upon renewal the management is very reasonable to work with. There are amenities here that I don't find elsewhere. Every year I look at new places because the idea is nice that we could go to a brand new clean, sparkling place with fresh carpet. However, when I look around I always come to the conclusion that I can't find "as much bang for my buck" than here. The property is beautiful and people are impressed when we use the clubhouse and conference room for fun and business. I've never had the problem of calling and getting things fixed. Mike Metzger, who heads up the grounds and building maintenance is great. He's been here for years. Although the management has changed several times there is still continuity with him. I have found the place to be very safe. Yes, I heard about the meth lab, but I have a policeman friend who told me this isn't rare, unfortunately. I live in one of the townhouses which has 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. I even have two fireplaces. I don't notice the top floor being hot. My dressing area off the master bath (which is huge) does get hot in the summer but that's the only problem I have. My place has a winding staircase and seems just like a home. That's what we like about this place. When you're inside our apartment you would never know you're not in a custom home. I was surprised to read the negative comments on here. No, everything isn't perfect. I felt they waited too long before repainting the trim on the property and it took quite awhile to replace the keypad stand (it worked- it just looked banged up)at the gate but these are minor things. All in all we are pleased. I've been here 5 plus years. I moved here when it was Jefferson Estates. I just renewed for another year. I really have checked around and I keep renewing each year.
