Campus Plaza Apartments

While it becomes quickly evident that the apartments were built in the 70s, the atmosphere is positive, the maintenance crew is fairly responsive, and the people who gravitate to the complex are fabulous. A lovely community. Just couldn't give it 5 stars due to the age, packing the rooms with 3 to a room, and sometimes quick-fix maintenance solutions that didn't last long and were difficult to communicate with in English. Would generally recommend.

They are transparent, attentive, and renovating. The staff are great and happy to help. With that being said, it is ancient and still has lead paint. They are clear about it, and the price, proximity to BYU, and the great people there make it an amazing experience

Campus Plaza is very social and fun! Closest you can get to campus! I walked from home to the MARB in less than 5 minutes! The rent is pretty cheap and the maintenance and office employees are very friendly. Laundry and mail are in the main building. The kitchen is small though and shared with 6 people, so not the best if you love taking up a lot of space cooking. 2 refrigerators, 3 people to a room with bunk beds. Plenty of storage space for your things. The biggest downside is 6 people sharing one bathroom, but if you don’t care about sharing a bathroom, then you’ll have a great time! I have loved living there and the wards are always very open and loving! I’m always getting invited to do activities or go to game nights! 100% recommend!

I lived in Campus Plaza owned property for six years and let me tell you, old does not equal bad. This place will forever hold a part of my heart. So many great memories and friends were made here during my years here. The management is amazing. They are always quite prompt with my maintenance requests. Brendan is a great guy. Very fair and level headed. If you can't handle him, there's probably a problem with you and not him. Park Properties is soooo much better than Redstone and Aspen Ridge from what I've gathered. Let's go CP!

Overall I enjoyed my stay here. I was not here very long but as far as I could tell the staff were friendly. They offer a basketball/volleyball court, grill, and swimming pool. They also had a game room. The pool was not very well kept when I was there. The apartments were inexpensive. I would recommend not getting an apartment with 3 people in a room... that seems too many people for me. It is very close to campus. I met some friendly people living here.

Great place to live. Awesome location; very chill. Awesome management.

Considerate management. Great location. Decent price. Parking spots available if you buy a parking pass. Nice tenants (neighbors). 8 month contracts avaliable. Fairly easy to sell. My second favorite place I've lived in Provo.

Management is extremely pleasant. Look ghetto at first glance, is ghetto at second glance, but honestly, I've never felt cramped or claustrophobic in a 6-girl apartment. The people are the nicest ever and I've never wanted to move anywhere else. A solid mix of convenient and cheap and fun.

Brendan and his crew don't serve you tea and crumpets for breakfast, but they are pretty awesome. While CP isn't perfect especially if you are spoiled, the price/location/quality is UNBEATABLE. The past two years I have never had the impression that they were trying to make their fortune off of us. There is a reason why the turnover is so low compared to other single housing!

I lived at the Grange, which is owned by Campus Plaza. This is probably my favorite place I've lived at BYU so far. The management is very nice, reasonable, and accommodating. Yes, the grange is a little old and run down and doesn't look that nice from the outside, but if those are not big factors for you, it's great. It's very close to campus and a very reasonable price and there is always parking available. Those are the things that I find important, so it's perfect for me. Utilities were about $30 a month. No other additional costs.

Great place, but watch out, the cleaning checks are more stressful than my engineering finals

Lived in one houses and loved it. Super cheap, super close to campus. Maintenance was amazing, Dennis will literally fix anything. The office staff were really nice and helpful. This is a great place to live if you are looking for cheap housing. They only do cleaning checks at the end of each semester which is great!

Great management, awesome location, humble people, and super friendly atmosphere. Absolutely loved living here.

This is by far the best apartments I have lived in except for old heritage which BYU tore down. They do have 6 people to one apartment with 3 to a room and only one bathroom. That is a negative. The architecture set up of the apartments makes campus plaza one of the most social apartments out there. To be perfectly frank, if you don't mind church at 1:30pm, 6 people to one apartment with 1 bathroom, and the management being extremely slow (they are very nice management! the nicest I have had) then come stay here at campus plaza because it is phenomenal!

Campus plaza is a hidden gem of Provo (especially for married housing). They have some of the most affordable apartments, and they are super close to campus. Manangement is exceptional. You don’t even feel like you’re living in Provo student housing — it’s that good. Brendan at the office is very responsive and has addressed all of our concerns. We’ve never had to wait longer than a day for Dennis to show up and repair something (also, he’s one of the kindest people you will meet). From living several other places in Provo (as a single student and a married student), I can say campus plaza is overall the best. Sure, you’re not getting luxury housing, but you’re getting a good location, people you can trust, and great management. The only major downside is a lack of parking (but welcome to south of campus anywhere).

Reasonably priced housing and the management is great. Brendan is fair and easy to work with and Dennis always gets to your place quickly to fix something urgent. I lived in one of the houses they owned and it was an overall great experience!

Very professional management. Good value

Hands down the best value for housing in Provo! Campus Plaza is closer to campus than most on-campus housing and has plenty of parking (as I understand, it’s one permit per available stall) that is better positioned than what students are getting with a BYU parking permit. The apartments aren’t the newest, but they are solidly built (no squeaky floors or hearing your neighbors) and well kept up. This is due in large part to how responsive they are to maintenance requests: we’ve always had someone come quickly—often the same day—to fix whatever was broken (Dennis is the friendliest, most helpful and proactive maintenance man I’ve ever met). That highlights what is probably my favorite part of living here: the management. They are far and away the best I’ve had in Provo. They’re not one of the giant property management companies that own most of the student housing, and they care a lot about making sure that you have a good experience. They’re super responsive and very helpful. They’re also very fair when it comes to rent and utilities: Campus Plaza is one of the few places that still charges a reasonable rent and doesn’t rob you with exorbitant utility fees (I generally pay $8-10/month). The wards here generally attract a younger crowd, but there are enough upperclassmen that you won’t stick out if you are a bit older. It does mean that people have a lot of energy and are willing to make new friends and try new things. As with many complexes, it’s as social as you want to make it. Overall, my feelings are that great location/parking + reasonable rates + good condition + stellar management = best deal in town.

I loved living at campus plaza. Very friendly and social atmosphere. Close to campus. Cheap too. Oh and the management is really nice. No hidden fees.

I'm living here now and I love it. I just signed up for another year. The staff is friendly. The social scene is super open and social. The only drawback is that the apartments are small and a little ghetto, 6 residents and one bathroom.

I lived in a campus plaza house for two fall/winter semesters. It was an amazing location, being so close to campus. What really sold it though was the management. Campus plaza has the best management by far. They care about their tenants as evidenced by the fact that they learn the names of the people living there and every spring they do a little barbecue for their tenants for finals week. They also have a good laundromat that takes credit cards and they have an entertainment room you can reserve. The apartments themselves are a bit crowded with 4/6 people in 2 bedrooms but there are 2 refrigerators, the sink is outside the bathroom and it seems to usually work out.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and go out of their way to show their appreciation. The apartments are cheap, but they've been well maintained, and I'm a huge fan of cheap.

BEST management, close to campus, and residents are warm and friendly! Best place I have lived and the management really takes care of you. The apartments are old, but management quickly and willingly fixes anything that is broken and are very friendly. Feels like you're at home :)

I liked that it was close to campus, it had a social environment, it was reasonably priced, the management was good and the people/wards were awesome (I lived there for about six months and was in two of the three wards). However, it could be really loud at times, is fairly old (cerca 1960s) and I would recommend getting a four person apartment; the six person has three people to a room which is pretty cramped, even if you love your roommates. ☺

Well maintained, very responsive management, cheap, social, and free wifi. Pool, basketball court, coin-operated laundry, foosball table, and a rec room with a projector downstairs. Wonky but sufficient parking. Closest housing to campus.

This has been by far my favorite place to have lived. The management was great and the the people that live there have all been friendly and fun to be around. Plus the location couldn't be better!

Cheap, Good Management, Enough Parking, Close to Campus. Best BYU apartment complex I've lived in so far. It looks old, but inside it's fine, and it's well maintained. Two 3-person bedrooms with a bunk bed in each with only one toilet and shower may not be for everyone, though. Social environment especially in the summer. Down-to-earth people. Hard to get a contract in Fall/Winter so sign up early in January when they come out. Sp/Su contracts often don't fill up until the very last minute. All inclusive rent (except electricity) is ~$250/month F/W and ~$125 Sp/Su. Laundry facilities are almost never full. The walls aren't too thin. Unfortunately, the front desk is only open a few hours during the afternoon (M-F 1 to 5:30 pm, Sat 11am-1pm), but you pay rent online. The downstairs lobby is always locked but you can reserve it and get the door code. BYU, Slab Pizza, J-Dawgs, Craig's Cuts, and South End Market are all super close.

"Campus Plaza in a nutshell is a great social atomosphere, cheap rent and close proximity to campus. The office staff is friendly. The apartments are not elegant, but they are certainly not trash. I would highly recommend it to anyone living in Provo who doesn't care about lots of space or privacy."

The location is hard to beat - CP is as close as you can get to campus, right next to JDawgs, Craig's Cuts, Slab Pizza, and a (kind of pricy) convenience store. The ward I stayed in (2nd floor) was very social and friendly, and from what I can tell the other floors' wards are similar. The apartments are pretty old, but maintenance is fast and pretty much never charges you for broken stuff. Management is inaccessible (office hours are 1-5:30 PM during the week) but they treat people fairly and the fees in the contract are really reasonable - much lower than the other places I have stayed. All in all, CP is a great place to stay if you want to be close to campus and you want to be able to trust management to be honest with you. The main downside is that it's 3 to a room (6 to a bathroom!) but there are two fridges in each apartment, which is nice.

I can't move out. I have friends asking me to move with them to other apartment complexes but I just don't want to leave! haha I've been at Campus Plaza for about a year now and it's been amazing. I'm on the first floor and the ward is great--most everyone treats their callings seriously and the bishopric is so down to earth. We have tons of fun activities going on too. The apartments are kind of old, if you couldn't tell by the pictures, but they're in good condition. Whenever we have a problem management is right on it though--our tub was clogged and I went to the office to complain about it and they sent a guy over within an hour. Some people shy away from the idea of having six people in two bedrooms, but it's really not that bad. If you keep it clean it's not that cramped, and there's plenty of space in the dining room/kitchen, not to mention two refrigerators. We have Google fiber now, and the only utility we have to pay for is the electric bill--everything else is included in rent. If we want the super fast Google fiber we have to pay for it though, but the standard's free of course. We also have a pool, basketball/volleyball court, grill, laundry facility, and a lounge that you can reserve with a ton of couches and a projector screen. Cleaning checks are very passable if you actually clean, and they're very ready to give you another chance before assigning fees. I also don't have a car, so I love being this close to campus, but all of my roommates have cars so I can get rides to Smith's and whatnot (the corner market store is across the street, but too expensive), and if all else fails I walk to the Creamery on 9th. My roommates have never had to park on the street, since Campus Plaza owns lots of parking lots. It's basically wonderful here.

CHiCKA AWESOME! Let me put it simply. I've lived other places in provo, and they have all been good. This place is excellent. I have signed up for my third consecutive year here, and am looking forward to more good times. Management is quality, the people here are fantastic and social, we are way close to campus, it is cheap, we have a grill with endless propane, a basketball court, a pool, two fridges...need I go on? To put it simply, this place is legit. I have met awesome people here and look forward to meeting more of the excellent people this place seems to attract. THIS PLACE IS THE BOMB.

I've been in Campus Plaza for almost 4 straight years. Take that how you want. I personally think that that is extremely positive. Although I can't accurately compare it to other places to live, I can say that everything I have ever needed in student housing I found here at Campus Plaza. It's super close to campus, it has excellent amenities, the management is super prompt and helpful, and everyone who lives here is down to earth and super friendly. The students who live here are the kind of students who don't take things for granted. 95% of the residents are students and work part time in order to make ends meet. That in and of itself speaks volumes as to their character. The grounds are very well maintained, the atmosphere is super social, and everything you need is close by (food, grocery store, campus, church, laundry, etc.) In the four years that I have been here, I have found that most people who move out of their apartment in Campus Plaza either get married, change floors in Campus Plaza, or move back after a semester or two. The apartments are older and you will have to sign a waiver about lead-based paint. Frankly, it never has become an issue while I've lived here. Most apartments have 6 people in 2 bedrooms with only one bathroom, but a few apartments on each floor are 4-person apartments. Utilities are only electricity, since gas and water are included in the rent. Parking is super convenient and available with 5 parking lots. The north parking lot is a little tricky to move around, but usually it's pretty clear. Don't park in the north parking lot though if you have a van or truck.
