I have lived here nearly 25 years. It was great here at first. The last 5 years have been horrible! I really, really hate it here. Management is rude and disrespectful. They are young and seem to lack experience/training. The present manager has rolled her eyes at me and always argues with me. I'm probably the age of her grandmother. I have explained to her that I am the paying customer and would like some assistance. I have tried to complain about the following: #1. Diesel tracks running 24 hours a day in parking lot over f... read more

i have lived at the park for 19 years, yes 19 years. It was so nice when we moved our new home in back in 1995. It is pure trash now and has been for 5 to 8 years now. I lost count of management company after management company. They started renting out trailers (yea! more scum and drug dealers). The crime rate in this community is horrific. Management company breaks their own rules but expects the homeowners to comply. FORGET ABOUT THE MANAGER CALLING YOU BACK. If you can not speak spanish don't bother living here either yo... read more

I have lived here for over 8 years. 1 1/2 -2 years ago this place has went way down hill. Nothing is done to make any Improvements to the communtiy nor does anyone follow any of the rules and regulations that was set up Management company. As of this report there is 3 child molesters allowed to live here. Drug dealers live here, Loud music all the time at all hours of the night. I could go on but you need to do your homework before moving here. I would advise against it at all cost. There is a new community right off Dessau ... read more

If u want something fixed! – If u want something fixed u might as well fix it urself ! U call it in. HaHa! Then gotta call weeks later to ask them if they are gonna fix it. Still waiting on them to fix something. My toilet handle broke so I fixed it myself cuz I knew they would never get around 2 it! Water out! Call and they say 2 hours. That was at 5 pm. Call again and they say at 9 pm. It's 10:12 and still NO WATER! Cant even take a bath after coming home from 8 hours at work!

WORST PLACE TO LIVE – BUT as of 07/01/2010 a new management company took over., NEWBURY MANAGEMENT COMPANY. Instead of informing the current residents of the changes they are putting into effect, they started harassing the tenants. You have a three day grace period for your rent and utilities that are due on the first of the month and on the second you are getting notices that your rent has not been paid. It is an uncomfortable feeling just being in your own home. Feels like a prison, they will fine you $50 for the stupidest... read more

gone to hell – shithole. thought it was a dream at first great place to raise my kid. Always paid rent on time, always kept up yard... then... new mgmt took over. They treat the residents like sh!t. the gate never works the pool is green and i get harassing letters on my door threatening to evict me for unpaid rent BEFORE rent is even due. The repairs take forever and the office never returns my calls. They removed the neighborhood watch and all the programs for kids and residents and quit renewing leases with out telling an... read more

Austin's BEST Mobile home park – I have lived in this park for 3 years now. At first it was not living up to par, as far as quality of residents goes. But after the new management got here, and made the proper changes (i.e. got the rats out), this place is GREAT! No other park in Austin even came CLOSE when I was looking to move out, so I re-signed a lease & couldn't be happier. There's even a neighborhood watch that keeps things in control. Everyone in the office (new people) are nice, friendly, and have remodeled everythin... read more
