The staff in the leasing office was extremely friendly, responsive and helpful. The apartment complex is clean, the facilities are nice, and the management company offered the short-term leasing option that we need.

    Well I just moved into the community. Overall, it's a decent place to live. I do wish they had handicapped accessible entrances for elderly & disabled people. The office seems to be proactive when it comes to resident needs...still trying to figure out the maintenance team. Prayerfully my stay here will be great!

        The Move in process was seamless and our rental agents at Top of the hill were wonderful and attentive. The apartments and grounds are well kept. We had an issue with our dishwasher when we moved in and maintenance fixed it the very next morning. My wife and I are very satisfied.

The landscape is beautiful and very well-maintained. Staff is friendly and professional. I would recommend living here.

                              So far we have really liked living at Top of the Hill apartments. It's quiet, it's clean, people are mostly respectful to each other. The size and quality of the apartment combined with the amenities are definitely on point with the cost. We would stay but know that the price will only go up based on the growing demand of the area and the desire to have a grill.

                                Very quiet. Lots of dogs which is awesome. Very friendly people, never had an issue with anyone here. Used the pool all summer but they had issues staffing the life guards, some days they wouldn't even open which was a bummer.

                                    Very quite and peaceful. Parking can be an issue but usually works itself out. The only problem is people letting there dogs urinate and poop near the building, patios and flower beds and right by people windows. Beyond that it is an outstanding place to live, we'll worth the money!!!

                                              Overall was a good experience. However recent issues with adminstration and maintainence respnses have been anything but careless and terrible. I understand the flooding experience was not technically the property admin fault, but their crisis management needs a lot if improvement.

                                                  Great place to live. I have had no issues with pests, the office maintenance staff are very responsive, the property upkeep is phenomenal and the apartment itself is in great shape. The only issue I see is the parking situation and the lack of outdoor bike racks.
