I've been at the Fountains going on 3 years. What can I say, but the price is right considering the area. You are only a couple miles from the upscale Gold River area. The location is great for access to Hwy 50 and not too far from the American River bike trail. The maintenance crew does need some improvement on how quickly they respond to a request. The people that live there are extremely nice. What's even nicer are the fountains that are spread throughout the complex. Helps cut down on the sound of people walking to/from the parking areas. Being that the complex is older, the units are extremely quiet. It was developed at a time (mid 1970's) where things were built more solid. I rarely hear my neighbors next or below me. If you are on a budget, but not want to worry about taking in a roommate to help pay the rent, inquire at The Fountains.
