People complain but it is just older people! It's good, near the shops, the park, and the community. Nice people live here, good neighbours.

Very happy group trying hard to put the construction site behind us and regroup with many new residents waiting to move here.

There needs to be a change of management style; more listening, more responsiveness to residents' input, a greater emphasis on effectiveness in action.

Better provision space/equip for real activities would be welcome. eg art/crafts. The property is well managed, but that appears to be the main priority when compared to meeting the needs of people residing here. Poor information. There is a general feeling of dissatisfaction with communication / responsiveness of manager. Requests seldom meet a positive or timely answer - a rather 'aloof' top-down style (maybe reflection of Arvida policy). [in my opinion](eds.)
