"DO NOT PURCHASE OR RENT TO OWN IN THIS PLACE! steer FARRRR AWAY FROM HERE. Insane to be asking me for a GOOD google review. The management and front office have terrible customer service. moved in not even a month ago, house full of roaches and never sent anyone out but also won’t reimburse me if I pay out of pocket. My food defrosted and fridge had to be replace. There are leaks that have been covered by paint and borders. Soft spot in the floor, issue that were discovered in the walk through that took over a week to be taken care of. They lock the door before 5, and also don’t answer the phone calls if they know they’re not taking care of issues you’ve discussed, even through email. Throwing me and my kids in a home that was trashed, disgusting, and not ready. New CHEAP carpet, coming up from floor. Now AC doesn’t work, when supposedly someone was sent and maintenance after hours (or during normal hours) RIDICULOUS. Leaking coming through patio, almost a month of ISSUES. No I’m NOT signing at 6 months OR at the end of my lease. THE SUN COMMUNITIES deserves 0 STARS."

"If I could give less stars, I would. Lot rent is ridiculously high and includes NOTHING. Not only that but you have to pay annual fees for maintenance and property taxes on land you don’t own and get no benefit from. They raise the lot rent 5-10% every year and say their costs have gone up but they have NO COSTS because the make 6 million a year off the tenants and do nothing for us. Other parks are far less and include way more amenities like lawn care, cable, and internet. All of the amenities close at 5 pm when people are just getting home from work. So you can’t use the pool, playground, or basketball courts. The on-site Management through Sun Communities is incompetent. They completely ignore any complaints from the people who live here or worse threaten you with legal action if you try to organize with other members of the neighborhood to discuss issues. They harass you if your grass is 1/2 inch too tall or you have a lawn chair on your porch. They wasted $100k to fence the basketball ball court to supposedly keep outsiders out when they could have spent that same amount to put gates at the 2 entrances for the whole neighborhood to keep outsiders out. They lie about the condition of the houses they sell and have their own inspection and closing companies that sign off on things like soft floors and non working plumbing. You aren’t allowed to plant anything or put a fence on the land you pay for and pay the taxes on. The driveways don’t have enough room for more than 2 cars so if you have company there is no where for them to park without getting towed. The security company they hired is worthless. Overzealous overlords running this place."

"I had a really great experience with Sonya who showed me many available properties in both the Ridge and Palm Key. She was professional, courteous and expedited my closing. She also did quite a bit of followup after I purchased my home. I highly recommend that you consider the Ridge and speaking to Sonya when looking for a new home in the area."

"Love this place its quiet and peaceful. Bought a house here in July. Hello again, I purchased a house here at the Ridge and love it here. Sonya helped me from the first day when I contacted her from my home in Rhode Island not only did she give me great advice and assistance with showing me the house but her kindness and great attitude sealed the deal. I can't say enough good things about Sonya, Martha,and Rhonda, every time I go to the office I am treated with great respect and courtesy. Love my home here and the office staffing is very nice every time I come in. Highly recommend the Ridge."
