After touring over 30 apartments, it was an easy choice to make. This community feels like it's secluded from the noise and chaos of the city, when it's actually right next door. The apartment is so spacious and well kept. The staff and other tenants have been nothing but kind…
Heather Creeks front office staff are amazing. They take your questions and concerns to heart. They showed us some of the newly renovated units and they are beautiful. New stainless steal appliance and a large farm style sink!
