Good price, only 7 years old, quiet and 7 minutes by car to Fuqua

We have enjoyed our time at Garrett West, the staff is nice and very responsive and the community is very peaceful. In the summer, spending time in at the pool or the playground with our little one has been a highlight of our time here. Valet trash is a requirement you have to pay for but it is nice to be able to leave your trash just outside your front door and have some grab it 5 times a week. Our flat is spacious has got all the main amenities so we are very comfortable here. Our only complaint has been that one of our bedrooms has a constant draft which has made it hard to keep it completely warm in the winter - this seems to be unique to our flat however and not the entire complex.

We love living here. The only negative is that our car was once broken into but nothing stolen. We heard our neighbors complain about the same. Everything else about the community is spectacular.

Cheap and great value. Apts are way newer than nearby century trinity

We really enjoyed our time here. It's about a 10 minute drive from campus and significantly cheaper than anything you'll find near campus (Station 9, B9, etc.)

My wife and I have had a great experience at Garrett West. We live in a one bedroom apartment with a patio. The apartment is very open and is the perfect size for a couple. There are large windows that let in lots of sunlight. The apartment community is very diverse - from students to families to retirees. The pool is nice and they have communal grills that we have used in the past. The management is great. We've had very few issues, but the issues that have come up have been handled quickly. We were also excited because they offer shorter lease terms, in case you do not plan to be in Durham over the summer. They also offered a great move-in special. The downsides of the complex are that you need a car to live here, it is about 10 minutes to 9th Street area, it is not a very walkable area, and the walls are thin. With that said, if you're looking for a low-key, affordable, and well-maintained apartment, this is a great option.

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

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.

Better and much cheaper than Heights and Belmont!

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.
