I've lived here for 6 years? now. I love the location and never have issues. If something breaks, Jim or Kyle have always been out here to address it right away. I started with a one bedroom and moved to a 2 bedroom 2 bath and couldnt be happier. Thanks Dittmar for allowing this to be my home.

Great apartments, however the upper management takes full advantage of you as the tenant. I applied for a studio lease for a year and they said I was accepted, then they changed the details of the apartment and wanted all the money in full. I did not have all the money in full so they offered 3 and 6 month rent options, even when I applied for the one month rental rate for 12 months. The 6 month rental option was $110 more than the regular per rent month and the 3 month option was over $210 more than the asking price that I applied for! They were taking full advantage of me for being in college

The buildings and property are very well maintained. Constant upgrades. On site Manager is always accessible and very responsive. Any issues are taken care of within a half of a day.. Residents appear to be screened very carefully. Reasonable rent with heat included.

I went and talked to Nikki and told her that I do not think our Air Conditioner is working at full strength, but only because it will not get down past 73 degrees. She told me that she will have Darrell come over and look at it. Before I got back to the apartment, Darrell was already there waiting to look at the unit. After looking at the until Darrell told me he would call their Air Conditioning Company to come out and hopefully make it right. Within ONE HOUR, our Air Conditioner was repaired and fully running and our apartment was down to 69 degrees that we set it for. We could not be happier
