I have lived in the Des Moines area for 3 years now, and this is my second apartment here. This place is great!! My appliances are updated and my flooring is very nice as well. I love that the maintenance team gives you the time frame they will be making their repairs and if they cannot they follow up with you. As for the grounds, looks great in the summer and my walks are clear in the winter. The office staff is always friendly and willing to accomodate my needs. I highly recommend this place if you want a secure, clean, and upscale place to call home.
