What recent reviews say

Recent reviews paint a complex split between newer residents impressed by the current management team, especially property manager Juliana, and longer-tenured residents frustrated by years of maintenance breakdowns, turnover, and escalating fees. Those arriving in the last few months describe a friendly leasing experience and responsive on-site staff; those with three-plus years report chronic elevator outages, air conditioning failures, and what they view as a shift toward charging for perks that used to be included. The pool is praised when open, though some reviewers say they never accessed the gym despite living there years.

The property's management has visibly shifted. Newer reviews highlight Juliana and her team's willingness to find solutions, from same-day maintenance to offering unit transfers. Older complaints center on communication gaps during after-hours emergencies and a sense of deprioritizing repairs. Unit size remains disputed: some call apartments spacious; others say two-bedroom units cannot fit a dining table and have unusable balconies.

Recent shift: Management overhaul within past six months appears to have shifted sentiment. Recent five-star reviews cite new team (Juliana, Elsie) and improved responsiveness. Older one-star reviews highlight years of neglect under prior management. Elevator failure and utility issues predate the shift and remain unresolved.

Common questions

How quickly do maintenance requests get handled?
Recent residents report same-day responses under the current management team. One reviewer noted a request placed in the morning was completed the same day. However, complex failures like elevator repairs have reportedly gone unresolved for months.
Are there amenities like a gym and pool?
Their website lists a fully equipped fitness center, game room, theater room, and clubhouse. Reviewers praise the pool, though some report limited or inconsistent access. One long-term resident said they never received a gym key or passcode despite years of residency.
What is included in rent, and are there extra fees?
Website lists high-speed internet access, but reviews indicate rising additional charges over time. Visitor parking registration is now required (described as a new revenue method). Earlier residents caution about fees for amenities once included.

Leasing staff earn consistent praise for knowledge and warmth, and the property itself appeals to those seeking a quiet community with trees and space. However, management struggles with operational basics: long-standing residents report no loyalty incentives while new tenants get free rent, maintenance ignores emergency calls during crises like AC failures in 95-degree heat, and mold gets covered up rather than addressed. Utility costs run high, and hidden fees appear in welcome packets after signing.

Move in takes a day. Michelle and Amanda handle leasing and tenant concerns with real attention, returning calls and solving problems on the first ask. Maintenance responds in hours, not weeks, keeping the grounds quiet and the units updated. Residents stay for years. The complex hosts family events (UFC tickets mentioned), grounds stay clean, and the vibe is welcoming enough that people who leave still remember it fondly. Located off the main road in McKinney with easy access to shopping and highways.

Residents consistently praise individual staff members like Fernando and Lauren, who go out of their way to help with tours, emergencies, and lease transitions. Yet the complex itself struggles: roaches, rats, mold, and broken AC are recurring complaints, with management often deflecting or denying problems. Several long-term residents overlook these issues because of personal relationships with key staff. The location in McKinney near shopping and parks appeals, and amenities like the pool and gym exist, but maintenance is unreliable and repairs take months. One serious incident involved inappropriate boundary-crossing by a maintenance worker; when reported to management, it was dismissed and the worker stayed on and moved into the same building. Billing discrepancies, undelivered promotions, and towing incidents add to distrust. The complex appears well-painted on the surface, but reviewers warn it masks a much older, poorly-maintained property underneath.
