    "Shelly lake is nearby. A nice area to go for a walk. The area has great schools. Children shouldn’t be too noisy living in the condo buildings since they’re older buildings, and you can hear what the neighbors are doing"

    "There are many family oriented community activities and events that take place throughout the year, and such a great quality environment to be surrounded with, especially the nice parks! The area is one of the best locations Raleigh has to offer in my opinion! It is a short distance to any of the surrounding towns/cities as well. While the communities are constantly building/growing/expanding around us, it is still such a quiet/peaceful neighborhood."
