Wasn’t worth it

Two positive things are true about this place. These apartments are very affordable for the area. The grounds are kept nice. Many of the other tenants are very rude and will yell at you for no reason. The manager plays favorites and doesn’t take concerns seriously. You will be told you’re the problem if the manager has loyalty towards another tenant regardless of their behavior. Yelling and disrespecting others is just the norm. We were told we are too sensitive. It shocked us that the manager... thinks that kind of communication is normal. You feel like you’re constantly on eggshells. Maybe for a single person who is hardly home with a job somewhere this place could work but I don’t recommend it for people who are active or have a family. The lease termination is obscenely overpriced or we would have moved yesterday.

Excellent service

I moved in with my cousin in December but he ultimately decided not to stay. Sue was incredibly helpful in that transition. Great service, great location, A+ all around.

Love living here

Moved in about 2 years ago and have had absolutely not problems. From the very first day, Sue and Steve have been responsive and professional. They care about the tenants as well as making sure everything works. When there is an issue, the jump on it to make.sure it gets resolved. They also make sure the grounds are well kept. And the other tenants are nice/courteous. Its a great place to live.

Visit

Had the opportunity to visit Garden Court
Apts while apartment hunting. From the moment I called to the end of my visit Sue was
a very pleat individual explaining everything I needed to know about the complex. She never
seemed uninterested or bored as she gave me
the tour. It was great interacting with a person
who loves what they do. Apartments nice too!
