    Nice facility but management risks

    I like the location, grounds, pool and the clean, quiet, hotel-like building - the two-bed/2-bath apartments are lovely and reasonably priced. Amenities (exercise/activity rooms, security) and the front-line staff are pleasant and helpful. However, management responsiveness is a major concern: maintenance failures (elevators, water, gates), frequent event cancellations, and dismissive or absent managers have frustrated tenants. No in-unit washer/dryer and no full-service/meals, and the location is a bit far from my family - nice facility, but weigh the management risks.
