I've been living in this building for more than half a year now, so I've experienced both summer…read moreand winter conditions.
The units are large. I have a "small" one bedroom and it's over 850 sq ft. There are other one bedrooms that are around 1200 or even more sq ft...along with 2 and 3 bedrooms as well.
The area is very convenient. The Dixie Mall and No Frills are just a short walk away where you can catch Mississauga transit. The QEW/Gardiner/427 are very close, and you have the option of taking the Dixie or Long Branch GO trains or buses. You can also catch TTC at Long branch station which is about a 20 minute walk, or just a few short minutes by car.
The building offers amazing amenities, and there are activities for everyone. The salt water pool is beautiful in the warm summer months. After going for a swim I honestly feel like I'm on vacation while I'm laying down and catching some sun. There's a tennis and badminton court, and three shuffle board courts. There are many tables with umbrellas and chairs around the property, along with two large BBQs and a gazebo. The 6 acres are beautifully landscaped and are always great to photograph for the enthusiast.
Inside the building, there's a full sized snooker/billiard table, darts, ping pong, puzzle room, massive workshop (band saw, table saw, sanders, lathe, drill press, and much more), community areas, and so much more. There are personal lockers for detergents in the laundry rooms (each building has its own), along with sitting areas with a TV and magazines, and it's just 50 cents per wash, and 25 cents per half hour for drying. There's a manual car wash which is operational during three of the four seasons for only $1 per 3 minutes.
Water, heat, hydro and cable television are all included in the condo fees. There's 24 hour security at the gate house, and a concierge in the main lobby during business hours.
The McMaster house can be rented out for private functions for a very reasonable price, and includes a full kitchen with all the dishes and cutlery you'll need.
There are various paid things that you can do too, including the hair salon, yoga, and events with live music. There are often social events like wine and cheese which come at no extra cost.
I can go on, but there's just far too much to say. The only down side to this building is that there are no dogs allowed, so if I ever want to get a dog I'll have to move :(.
