Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesThe staff were very nice. My only complaints are that the cabinets were a little dirty upon move-in and none of our smoke detectors were connected. Overall, very nice space and organized.

The apartment was clean and well-maintained from day one, with reliable air conditioning that made hot Georgia days much more comfortable.

The overall environment felt safe and welcoming, and I always felt like my comfort was a priority.

Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesAlthough the application is straight-forward, communication of staff is poor and requires problems to be forcibly solved by showing up in-person.
Hi Emily,
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you found the application process straightforward. However, we're sorry to learn that communication with our staff did not meet your expectations. Your experience of needing to resolve issues in person is not the standard we strive for. If you're open to it, we’d appreciate the opportunity to learn more about your experience—please reach out to Ty, our Leasing and Marketing Director, at (706) 608-4849.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.
