Beware that you will probably not get your full deposit back. They love to "clean" the carpets before you move in. The problem is the stains are not visible until a few weeks later. By then you have already signed the paperwork saying carpets were just fine. Then when you leave they charge you for the carpet cleaning, and the process repeats. I can almost understand this from a newer community. But Cypress Lake is aging at this point. All of the wiring is ancient, to include cabling inside walls. Whenever you ask a question of the staff, in regards to lease, maintenance, or wiring you will get a different answer every time. There are so many new apartments in Mandeville and Covington now, there is absolutely no reason to decide to live here. I cannot comment on the current fire, as I do not know the cause, but I do think it is time for Tonti to just demo these and build new ones.
