"My two labs love the dog park here. And having walking paths right outside my door means they get their morning walk without me even getting in the car."
"I came from Louisville paying $1,400 for a studio with zero amenities. At The Reserve I pay less and get a pool, gym, pickleball — everything. It's not even close."
