  • Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Summary of Reviews:

    • New management has been making positive changes, cleaning up, and is seen as doing a good job. The complex is recommended for singles and older couples, but may not be ideal for noisy families with small dogs.
    • There are complaints about prejudice and unresponsiveness from the management, with specific criticism directed towards a manager named Melinda for not addressing residents' concerns. In contrast, another staff member, Roy, is praised for his exceptional service and suggested as a better management option.
    • One review humorously comments on the forest not meeting expectations, which seems out of context compared to other feedback.
    • Positive remarks highlight Briarwood as a great place to live, with accessible management, well-maintained grounds, and a variety of activities and amenities such as a clubhouse, art classes, movie nights, and more. The staff is described as excellent, and the community offers clean and modern accommodations with ample parking and convenient access to public transportation.
    • Concerns are raised about the management's attitude towards disabled and elderly residents, with accusations of them not caring and being influenced by rumors rather than facts.
