My family really enjoyed this house! On the surface, it’s a pretty ordinary neighborhood, but the home is stylish and comfy, and it’s in a great central location for proximity to all kinds of Utah county businesses and activities. Our little one (6yo) played in the under-the-stairs play area for hours. One of our kids left her new winter coat behind, and the managers were very gracious and accommodating in helping us get it back. I’m happy to recommend this place.
