I love my new home and community and my new neighbors. I had multiple issues with getting my front door fixed initially. It was damaged prior to me closing and I was assured that it would be fixed. It took 4 trips to my home and multiple disagreements about my door before it was fixed. I have hurricane windows and door. They door company came twice with a door without glass in it and told me they were going to move my glass to the new door. I refused this both times because you can not do this with a hurricane door and maintain the hurricane integrity and rating if you disassemble the door. Finally after multiple, more the 10 phone calls back and forth with the door company and different levels of management the correct door was installed. This should not have been this hard and I should not of had to be the one to educate the door company on their own product. The installers were great The company itself was not. [name removed] should have had that door replaced before I closed.

The only thing that I am very upset about (and just found out) is that the dog park, which is touted as a big amenity, is ONLY golf cart accessible. It never occurred to me that I could not park there with my vehicle and it is quite a trek with a dog from the closest parking lot, which is Publix.
