In 2019, after many years of living in our four-bedroom, three-bathroom home by ourselves, my wife, [name removed], and I decided to sell our home. Our four children had moved out many years before. Because we didn't know what to do, we decided to rent for a year and check out different options. My wife's friend recommended Residences at Highland Glen. Her mother had lived her last five years here and they both loved it. In January, 2020, Covid hit when we were in Florida. When we came home, with everything shut down, we decided to sign up for another year through June 2021. We since have decide to stay here. We love it here. [name removed], the manager, is wonderful and very efficient.[name removed], the maintenance man, is great and answers every call in a prompt and professional way. Thank you.
