Maintenance response is mixed

Residents describe both fast, thorough maintenance and recurring repair and access problems.

Several residents say repairs are handled quickly and correctly, with staff addressing issues urgently and getting things done.

Some residents praise the park’s cleanliness, landscaping, and well-maintained trailers, including comments that pools are clean. Other reviews complain about overall upkeep issues such as dirtiness, playground conditions, and amenities that aren’t maintained or monitored. Even when overall conditions are described positively, there are also mentions of parts of the property needing attention.

Pool and play areas are debated

The pool and recreation spaces draw both praise and complaints.

A number of residents say the pool is well maintained and that the playground works well for their families.

Lot rent feels overpriced

Multiple residents say lot rent has increased sharply and feels too expensive for the area.

Several reviews directly criticize lot rent as unaffordable, including claims that it has risen multiple times since moving in. Some residents also describe late fees and threats of eviction, or say the rent structure was not clear during the move-in period. Taken together, cost concerns show up often alongside concerns about how management handles billing and payment issues.

caveat 17 reviews mention this

Office and management are split

Residents describe office support ranging from very helpful to slow, unresponsive, or difficult.

On the positive side, multiple residents say the office staff is attentive, easy to communicate with, and responsive, with specific praise for individuals who help residents and make the process simpler. On the negative side, other reviews complain about long delays in returning calls or emails, difficulty getting repairs, and managers described as unprofessional or demanding. The overall theme is that communication and follow-through can be very different from one resident’s experience to another.

common 5 reviews mention this

Quiet feel depends on the review

Some residents say the community is quiet, while others raise concerns about safety and neighborhood behavior.

Several reviews describe the park as quiet, family-friendly, and generally calm, including mentions of neighbors being respectful.
