I have only lived here for 4 months and I'm so ready to pack my bags! After reading many of the other reviews I have to say my assessment of Mariners Cove is not far off from the rest of the reviewers. First off I would NEVER EVER rent from here again, nor would I recommend this complex to anyone else. Just like most of the other reviews started off, the well manicured landscape, gated entrances, and comfortable leasing office had me very excited to move in. I was horribly mistaken about the actual quality of the neighborhood. They DO rent to Section 8 recipients, and while not all Section 8 recipients are bad, it sure seems that there is a heck of a lot more crime in this neighborhood than there should be in a "gated community" that rents to Section 8 recipients. From personal experience our apartment was broken into and our valuables taken, next FedEx left a package at our door that was stolen, our neighbors have had 2 bikes stolen from them. These events are not just a minor occurrences at Mariners Cove, they happen quite frequently. Since we have been living here the SDPD have shown up numerous times JUST on our side of the complex, as well as the Sheriffs Department and Drug Task Force busting into not just our neighbors apartment but the apartment across the road from us. The management doesn't really seem to care about the numerous holes under the fence in the back of the complex near the Famous Slough, which allow for skunks and large quantities of feral cats to roam around the complex. It seems that no one can pick up their dogs poop, I don't know what is so difficult about it poop bags at Big Lots are like $3, as well as the complex providing FREE poop bags in the grassy walk areas. So much for the pristine landscape, its ruined when you step in dog poop every morning.WE CANT NOT WAIT TO GET OUT OF HERE.
