I recently graduated from college and was looking for an apartment near my hometown. Location was a must when deciding on where I wanted to live. The location of these apartments are perfect and overall, the size of the apartments are perfect too

Apartment is clean, very happy with the size of it, management is better than what was reviewed in our experience. Maintenance is amazing! Guys that work on 2860 are outstanding and respectful, even offered to help move us in with heavy things. Negative reviews seem to be tenant based.
