Rent increases raise cost concerns
Some residents feel rent increases have been a negative surprise over time.
A few reviews point to rent increases as the main downside, including one that described a larger-than-expected jump in a prior year and another that characterized increases as generally bad. Even residents who are otherwise satisfied still mention cost-related frustration when comparing expectations to what happened at renewal or year-over-year. The listings information also indicates pricing is substantially below county and state benchmarks for both unit types, which may help explain why some residents focus on the changes rather than the starting price.
caveat6 reviews mention this
Property is kept up, with some gaps
Most residents describe the property as well maintained, but a few call out problems with grounds and common areas.
Several residents describe the community as clean and well-kept, including the building and grounds. However, a few reviews mention specific upkeep issues, like landscaping declining over time, common-area cleaning being minimal, and certain public areas looking run down. Residents also mention property features they appreciate outdoors, while still noting that some upgrades and maintenance visibility in shared spaces have not met expectations.
