6 Apartments Near Weber State University, Ranked by Distance

Brinker Apartments is the closest of the apartments near Weber State University, half a mile from the Ogden campus. Then comes Mirador at 0.6, Arbor Cove and The Gardens on 40th tied at 0.7, and Harrison Pointe and Tamlyn at 0.8. Here's what the listings don't tell you: none of those six is under a 24-minute walk.

That's the hill. Weber State sits up on the bench at the foot of the Wasatch, and most of Ogden's rentals sit below it on a street grid that doesn't run straight to campus. I pulled every number below off the commute widget on each building's Find My Place page in September 2026, so you're looking at the same data we show renters. Want the whole map instead of six pins?

Key Takeaways

• Closest: Brinker, 3476 Brinker Ave. Half a mile. Twenty-nine minutes on foot, which should tell you something.
• The shortest walk belongs to The Gardens on 40th (24 minutes), even though it's farther away on paper than Brinker or Mirador.
• Three of the six post rent on FMP: Arbor Cove from $1,049, Gardens on 40th from $1,099, Harrison Pointe at $1,300.
• Want a building people actually like? Arbor Cove, at 4.8. Nobody else in the top six clears 3.4.
• "Across from Weber!" is marketing copy at Harrison Pointe (the widget says 0.8 miles and 33 minutes).
• Driving? You're 5 or 6 minutes out no matter which one you pick.

How "Closest" Was Measured, and Why the Walk Number Matters More

Find My Place links 51 properties to Weber State. I sorted all of them by the miles shown in each property page's "your commute to class" box, which also lists walk minutes and drive minutes. Miles is what people search for, so miles set the order.

But look at the walking column before you sign anything. Half a mile shouldn't take 29 minutes. It does here because the route climbs east off Harrison Boulevard toward the foothills, and the streets make you zigzag to get there. If you're walking in January, re-sort by minutes. Brinker drops to second and The Gardens on 40th jumps to first.

1. Brinker Apartments — 0.5 Miles, Closest on the Map

Proximity is the whole pitch at Brinker Apartments, and honestly, that's the only pitch. You're half a mile out (5 minutes in a car, 29 walking). Three reviewers have rated it, and the average is 1.7.

The most detailed review, from October 2025, gave it two stars and said the second star was only for the bus access and the storage. Everything else was loud neighbors (another reviewer mentions music at 3 a.m.), a carport roof that looked like it might come down, and word that the owners were selling. No rent is listed. If you call, ask who manages it this year before you ask what it costs.

2. Mirador Apartments — 0.6 Miles on Harrison Boulevard

Mirador's reviews read like two different buildings. Mirador Apartments is at 3415 Harrison Blvd, six-tenths of a mile from campus, and it scores a 2.0.

A tenant of about ten years loves the staff, names three of them, and says the rent is fair. (That tenant reported paying $622 for a one-bedroom. Don't expect that quote; it's a decade-long rate.)

Other reviewers describe four days without heat, a kitchen gutted for five weeks, and water shutoffs. The pool, by the way, is no longer part of the property. Nothing is posted for current rent, and the walk is 30 minutes.

3. Arbor Cove Apartments — 0.7 Miles, the Best-Reviewed of the Six

Tour this one first. Arbor Cove Apartments at 3290 Van Buren Ave carries a 4.8 across five reviews, and it's the only building near the top of this list where reviewers sound genuinely happy. Floor plans list from $1,049 a month; the two-bed, one-bath layouts run $1,049 to $1,150.

People name Heather and Brooklin in the office and say maintenance shows up fast. One February 2026 reviewer, two years in, pushed back on value: the rent, they said, doesn't match how dated some units are. Fair. Look at the actual unit you'd get, not a staged one. Getting to class takes about 30 minutes on foot or 6 by car.

4. The Gardens on 40th — 0.7 Miles, Shortest Walk of the Group

Walkers, this is yours. The Gardens on 40th at 955 Country Hills Dr ties Arbor Cove on distance, yet its walk is just 24 minutes and the drive is 5. It scores 3.4. Rent is posted: one-bedrooms from $1,099 to $1,465, and a two-bed, two-bath at $1,599.

Reviewers like the gym, the hot tub in winter, the pet policy, and having Smith's and Costco nearby.

The sharpest review came from a tenant who noted how many Weber students live there, then listed what bugged them. Two-person units go on a shared lease. A second parking spot costs extra, so does a second fob. And after a spotless move-out, they still got hit with a $325 cleaning charge. Take photos, lots of them.

5. Harrison Pointe Apartments — 0.8 Miles, Whatever the Listing Says

No one sells closeness harder. Harrison Pointe Apartments, 3257 Harrison Blvd, calls its only listed floor plan "1 Bed 1 Bath - Across from Weber!" and asks $1,300 a month for it. Our widget measures 0.8 miles. The walk is 33 minutes, longest of the six.

It rates 2.6. Two reviews landed four days apart in January 2026: one described cockroaches and a bedroom with black mold that took a month to clean, the other said management had turned a corner. I believe both. Ask about pest treatment history and get the answer in an email.

6. Tamlyn Apartments — 0.8 Miles, Zero Reviews

Tamlyn is a blank. Tamlyn Apartments at 1121 Sullivan Rd matches Harrison Pointe at 0.8 miles, walks in 31 minutes, and has no reviews and no posted rent on FMP.

A blank isn't a red flag. It just means you do the homework. Go in daylight, ask for a year of utility averages, and if you sign, write the first review so the next Wildcat doesn't start from zero.

Just Outside the Top Six: Brownstone and Greens by Lotus

If you'll trade a few blocks for a better landlord, look here. Brownstone Apartments (4530 Harrison Blvd) is 0.9 miles out and rated 4.8, with long-term tenants describing a quiet, older building set back from the street. It's a 40-minute walk, though, and there's no posted rent.

Greens by Lotus Townhomes on Adams Avenue scores 4.6 at 1.2 miles and lists a one-bedroom, 1.5-bath townhome for $1,960, the most expensive number in this piece. Its page claims a 12-minute walk. For 1.2 miles? Check that route yourself.

What Rents Near Weber State Actually Mean

The rents quoted for these Weber State apartments are what each property lists for the unit, and every floor plan involved carries FMP's "Whole Unit" label. At The Gardens on 40th that label holds up: rent rises from $1,099 for a one-bedroom to $1,599 for a two-bedroom. Harrison Pointe's $1,300 is for a one-bedroom, so there's nothing to split. Arbor Cove is the fuzzy one. Its prices barely move between one- and two-bedroom layouts, so we can't tell you the basis, only that it lists from $1,049.

Splitting? Divide it yourself. For a sanity check, FMP's Weber State data puts shared apartments near campus at $500 to $700 per person, and solo places at $850 to $1,000.

Frequently Asked Questions About Apartments Near Weber State University

What is the closest apartment complex to Weber State University?

Brinker Apartments, 0.5 miles out. It also has the worst reviews of the six (1.7), and the walk still runs 29 minutes. Most students would be happier at Arbor Cove, which is only two-tenths of a mile farther.

Can you walk to Weber State from Harrison Boulevard?

You can, if 30 minutes each way sounds fine. That gets old by February. Full-time students ride UTA for free with the Weber State Ed Pass, and the OGX bus runs down the center of Harrison Boulevard (stations at 32nd and 36th Streets) every 10 minutes on weekdays. That's the real commute plan for most of these buildings.

How much are apartments near Weber State University?

$1,049 to $1,599 a month, as listed, for the closest buildings that post rent. Split with roommates, FMP's Weber State data lands at roughly $500 to $700 per person. Before you tour, read the verified Weber State apartment reviews, which you can filter by distance from campus.

Should I pick the closest apartment or the best-reviewed one?

Best-reviewed. Every building in the top six is a 5- or 6-minute drive, so three-tenths of a mile won't change your semester. A landlord who ignores a broken heater will.
