Softwind Point

This place is a little older but not everything old is always bad. I opted in paying a little more for a downstairs apartment that had wood floors which is nice and I am glad I did instead of saving a little bit of money for upstairs with carpet. The carports have storage which I thinks make it’s easy I have a camping and beach gear there so it makes unloading and loading quick and painless. On average this place is a quiet complex, no real complaints. I ve read a lot of reviews about bugs and the only time I have a issue was when I had a certain neighbor but the office staff helped me and set me up with pest control and once that person left so did the problem! If you have the option in renting something on a small building definitely take it, I think it makes you feel more like a “home” and less like an apartment. Also for a complex that doesn’t have washer dryer in unit it’s nice that there is a 24 laundry! Lastly with this being an older place there’s a lot of landscaping and property so it’s definitely have character and not like some of the new construction where it is as many apartments they can fit in a small plot of land.

I've lived here for almost two years now and the place certainly has flaws, but I have enjoyed my time here.

Pros:
• Peaceful - Dogs bark when delivery people come by, but for the most part the place is quiet and my neighbors are friendly.
• Staff - The staff are helpful and courteous. I have never had a problem working with them while I have lived here. They were especially helpful when my fridge gave out shortly after I first moved in by covering replacement groceries and when the place was getting painted by working around my schedule instead of forcing me into theirs.
• Parking - I have an assigned covered parking spot (with additional storage!). No issues with it yet. Other places I've lived in this area made parking a free for all where you paid for a parking permit but still were not guaranteed a spot. This is a massive improvement and was a big reason why I chose Softwind Point in the first place.

Cons:
• Laundry - The laundry facilities are awful! At least the one next to my apartment is, cannot speak for the others. The area is usually filthy and the machines are often out of order. This is the most frustrating part about living here for me.
• Landscaping - Patchy grass and mole hills. I honestly don't care that much about the aesthetics, but it is something that sticks out every time I leave home.

Other thoughts:
Unlike other reviewers, I have not had any trouble with pests.
The place is older and has it's quirks. Little things that show the place was lived in, like melamine shelves being painted over or little patches of rust on some of the fixtures.

Conclusion:
All in all, I am quite comfortable living here (though I would like a place with built in laundry). I recommend giving Softwind Point a look to see if it would work for you.
