What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Mechanicsville

We have a pool and we can walk to Kroger. The neighborhood is quiet. We have plenty of restaurants near us and the schools are very good.

its really nice that we have a neighborhood pool and 2 parks for the kids to play on. we also have tennis courts and a club house

Usually, it is a quiet neighborhood. Kids like to play outside. There are playgrounds and a pool. The main road is well-maintained in terms of landscaping. There is a stores, supermarkets, and restaurants nearby but you would need a car.

People are generally friendly. Across the street is a park where children play and a small dog park, these may be owned by the apartment complex.
