Johnston Gardens is a wonderful place to live and Cindi, the manager, is even more wonderful to work with. She is timely, competent, and truly cares about the tenants. Any time we have needed anything or had any issues she deals with them promptly and professionally, no questions asked. There aren't enough words to let her know how much we appreciate her. The apartments themselves are nice and well kept, the grounds are always neat and orderly, and any maintenance issues are promptly handled. Moving here was a great decision!

I called several apartment managers when seeking an apartment in the Johnston area. Cindi at Johnston Gardens was by far the most helpful and welcoming. She worked with me to confirm a move-in date that worked for me and made sure that all my questions were answered. I was moving from Colorado and had to do everything virtually. Cindi relieved my anxiety about signing a lease without actually seeing the apartment, and she was very honest and realistic in setting up my expectations for my actual arrival. She even left a sweet little welcoming gift package on the counter on move-in day! The 2 bedroom apartment was everything I needed. It was clean, open and spacious (the bathrooms are so big!), and they are in an amazing location in Johnston. I loved the immediate access to the bike path and several restaurants and the grocery store are within walking distance. You won’t be disappointed!
