. "2"^^ . "5"^^ . "5"^^ . . . "I'm utterly baffled by the other reviews of Lakeview at the Bay. It sounds like a completely different place than the one I've grown to love and appreciate in the year that my husband and I have lived here. The landscaping is gorgeous, a mixture of natural rocks and a stream that runs through the whole place. Ducks and other wildlife often frequent the lawns. Lakeview boasts not one but two pools with two jacuzzis. One pool is huge, resort size, while the other one is smaller but by no means tiny. In the summer, people are often barbecuing on the available grills or hanging out by the pool. \n\nOur apartment boasts a patio, washer/dryers in the unit, walk-in closets, and two bathrooms. Our fireplace is cozy in the wintertime. Any time we've had minor issues (we're talking the pilot light on the fireplace going out or a drawer breaking), the people at the office have sent someone out as soon as possible and communicated what they were doing. Any time we've visited the office, we've been met with friendly faces and genuine help. They always give our dog, Stella treats. It's a small thing, but it makes us feel very welcome. \n\nLike I said, I'm completely confused by the other reviews. I'm not saying they aren't valid. They are simply the opposite of the experience my husband and I have had. Our area is quiet and low-key. If I had any complaint, it's that my downstairs neighbour smokes on his patio and the smoke drifts up into our house. Second-hand smoke is dangerous! Other than that, there's nothing I could possibly say that's negative. One day, we'll get a house, and it will be a sad day that we have to leave here because it's simply beautiful. Any time my friends visit, they comment on how fabulous our place is. I'm proud to live here!"^^ . "2012-02-13T00:00:00"^^ . "1"^^ .
