Spacious apt near campus

Apartment is close to Fuqua, but I'm paying less than everyone else at other apartment complexes. Fairly quiet, no major parties or noises.

Quiet/Relaxing

The apartment complex is generally a quiet and relaxed space. Unfortunately, my experience there is tainted by the fact that our apartment was broken into and management did not do much to help; if anything it seems they were looking for ways to blame the incident on us.

Garrett West

This has by far been the best apartment we have lived in. It is a little pricey, but it has been worth it. The pool is great, the location is nice. We haven't heard our neighbors once. I would highly recommend Garret West.

Awesome place to live, but not for party animals

This place is affordable, clean, updated and less than 10 minutes from school - but it is on the opposite side of school than the "typical" student housing options Station 9 and the like.

New Resident

This apartment complex is perfect for the young professional/ grad student couple or room mates new to the RDU area. Good access to the highway and close to shopping. The pool is terrific and the dog park is good to socialize our new puppy. Rent could always be cheaper and could always be closer to the city but the community here is very nice.

Garrett West

Garrett West is nice but is lacking in certain amenities. The gym is very small and would do much better if it had additional workout equipment. The apartment itself is very nice, but there are a lot of bugs in our apartment, and very little storage space for a three bedroom.

Reviewed by Duke Law Student living at Garrett West
I have not been through the neighborhood very much, but from what I have seen, the residential side of Garrett Road (west of the Garrett Road / Durham-Chapel Hill Blvd intersection) is quiet and safe. The other side of the intersection however - and even the strip mall on the corner across from the Toyota dealership - is a bit rougher and more commercial of an area.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Garrett West
The location is right of US Highway 15 501. There are numerous shopping options located off of this road. The location also provides easy access to both Durham and Chapel Hill as well as Interstate 40. Also, the trails of Duke Forest are located just west of the property. All of these are positives. The negatives would be that a car is basically required to get anywhere.
Reviewed by Duke Law Student living at Garrett West
There's nothing special nearby, you're kind of isolated, and have to drive to go anywhere fun. But, it's a safe residential neighborhood which is personally what I care about.
Reviewed by Duke Law Student living at Garrett West
Great location between Durham and Chapel Hill. About a 10 min drive to school. Not gated and open air entry ways, so does not feel the most secure at times, but have not had any issues.
Reviewed by Duke Law Student living at Garrett West
It’s very quiet; though, there have been car break ins at GW and other apartments in the area.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at 501 Estates
This is a very nice neighborhood,. There are many stores close by (driving distance), grocery store, gas station, restaurants, home depot, bed bath and beyond, target, etc., that make it convenient.

There are also 3 schools nearby, less than 5 minutes drive.
Reviewed by Duke Med Student living at Garrett West
There's a Sam's and Super Target and Harris Teeter within 5min. Trader Joe's is 10-15min down 15-501, and the med school is about 10-12min away as well. More suburban with a running trail within a 2min run.
Reviewed by Fuqua MBA Student living at Garrett West
The neighborhood has a lot of traffic, but this community is relatively private, and surrounded by trees, so much of the neighborhood's effects are mitigated.
