Mountain View Gardens

I’ve lived at Mountain View Gardens for one year with my husband and baby and couldn’t be happier with our time spent here. We lived in #72– One bed/​one bath with basement and washer/​dryer unit. Upon moving in, the unit was squeaky clean, with floors and walls redone. We had nothing but positive experiences with this complex.
Best thing about this place is how fast they attend to service calls. I only had three issues around the house (all very small) and the repair guys (all nice and hardworking) came within 20 min. and knew what they were doing.
The leasing lady, Kasha is very nice and efficient at her job. She was very fast in processing our leasing contract and was very patient with our special needs (involving co-​signing).
I talked to a maintenance guy the day I looked at the apartment and asked him how the neighborhood is like on an average day and he said, it’s quiet and no one bothers you. And that’s exactly what life was like in the year that me and my family have lived here.
The grounds are very well maintained and they clear out the roads fast during winter. Though the spaces in between the parking spaces can have left over snow that freezes into icesometimes so just exercise caution during winter.
I was lucky to have had a neighbor upstairs that wasn’t home often and when he was didn’t make so much noise. But when he was home, you could hear him walking around though conversations do not carry through walls.
other pros:
2 min walk to Rite Aid, Barnes & Noble (café serves Starbucks, pastries, hot food)
