What Residents Say About The Drake at Deerwood

I had the pleasure to live in the Wimberly at Deerwood for 3 years, and it was an absolute pleasure. I have lived in several apartment complexes over that past 10 years, and this was by far the best experience I have had. The office staff (especially Rob and Amy) were great to work with, and even just to pop in and chat with. The apartment complex was quiet and very well maintained. Over the past year a new property management company has taken over and has put a lot of money into a make over of the complex including repairing any wood or stone that was bad, new paint on the exteriors, new granite counter tops and stainless steel sinks. The maintenance staff were all friendly and no request that I put in over the 3 years ever took more than a day to take care of. The location was perfect, with many restaurants (including the town center) within 5 minutes. I would recommend this complex to anyone with no hesitation.

My apartment community is great the staff here is super, and the complex has the best amenities for everybody. It is in a great location very close to everything.

Wimberly at Deerwood is located in a great area of Jacksonville! It is just minutes away from Tinseltown and Town Center. We have anything from fast food to a Brazilian Steak house. Also you are minutes away from great shopping as well!! The staff here are exceptional. They know my family by name! The apartments have multiple fenced in dog parks and plenty of grassy areas for our furry friends. Also the Wimberly has a rather large pool, that includes both an outdoor grill area and multiple lounge chairs. They also have and indoor half court basketball court, a good sized gym and a theater area! Wimberly at Deerwood has the best animates we have seen so far!!
