Think twice about Century Trinity

Overall the experience has not been very good. We have had some issues with AC and other things. The greatest challenges are how to deal with the administration of the complex, because people from the leasing office is often rude and not helpful.

Affordable apartments and cottages

Century Trinity has several options including 1-2 bedroom apartments, townhouses and 2-3 bedroom cottages (houses). The location is about 5 miles (5-minute drive) from Fuqua and it is very close to shopping locations:
Grocery Stores: Harris Teeter, Kroger, Wal Mart
Super Target
Best Buy
Home Depot
Bed Bath and Beyond
Buy Buy Baby
Dicks Sporting Goods
Play it again sports
Also a few restaurants

Amenities are not the best, the gym is very limited, and the business center only has 2 small tables + 2 computers.

The pool and grill area is good

Management is the weakest link.

Great community, management could be better

This is an open community, there are many options to choose from, apartments, town houses and cottages, starting from 1 to 3 bedrooms. The area is pretty and has a warm feeling. I would say that it is great for families but not as good for single people.

There are only 2 negative things that I have noticed. First, management is not the best, they do not answer immediately and tend to point fingers to others instead of helping out to resolve problems. Tied to that, maintenance takes a long time to fix issues and they not always fix everything, I have had to ask for repairs in more than one occasion.

Ok apartment with some management problems

The apartments are in good condition but the management is not fast to resolve the maintenance claims and puts a problem for everything.

A great value and convenient location

Overall, I am quite satisfied with my townhouse apartment. It is a short 8-10 minute drive to Fuqua and equally convenient to Target, Harris Teeter, and a ton of restaurants just down the road. If you want to spend every night at The Tavern or downtown then you can do that because you are saving so much money compared to living at Station 9 or another complex downtown. Having a large garage, 2 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths for our price would be unheard of in most complexes. There is also a nice tennis court, pool, and lots of green space for pets. Apartments always offer a lot of trade offs between amenities, location, space, and price. I feel like Century Trinity is a good balance of all of those.

Garrett Road Reviews

45 reviews
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.
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.
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.
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.
It’s very quiet; though, there have been car break ins at GW and other apartments in the area.
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.
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.
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.
