Overall, I would recommend living at Avonlea Highlands if you are going to live in Cartersville. Pros: recent renovations are beautiful, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and recess lighting under the white cabinets. Saltwater pool, new grill hooked up to a gasline to start it up with the press of a button. New fire pit also hooked up to a gas line. Dogs allowed. I do believe this is the nicest complex and best complex to live in in Cartersville. Cons: I was led to believe I would have vinyl hardwood in my unit, but on move in day I learned that units on the 2nd and 3rd floors have carpet throughout so that the units below don't have to listen to your steps. There is vinyl hardwood in the kitchen and bathrooms and one hallway. It is carpet in the living room and bedrooms. Rent is pretty high. No dogpark in the community or anywhere in Cartersville. All of our cars got broken into when the gate was open (but this is pretty standard for any apartment complex.) You must pay your rent by check at the front office to avoid a monthly fee. We find ourselves driving 20 minutes down to Acworth/Kennesaw for restaurants, parks, dog park, to see friends, etc.
