Yes, Landmark at Crowley is one of the Crowley TX apartments with detached garages, and the community also offers carports. The useful question for most renters is not just whether garages exist, but how a detached garage changes day-to-day parking, storage, loading, weather protection, and total monthly housing cost compared with open parking or a carport.
At Landmark at Crowley, garages are available and the community states that garages are an extra $150 per month, while carports are $50 per month. Because garage availability can change, the most reliable next step is to ask the leasing office whether a detached garage is currently open for the specific apartment you are considering and whether it can be reserved at the same time as your lease.
What a detached garage really changes for a renter in Crowley
A detached garage is usually most valuable when your car is more than simple transportation. If you want covered, enclosed parking rather than an open lot space, a garage can help with protection from sun, hail exposure, dust, and the routine inconvenience of unloading groceries, strollers, sports gear, or work materials in bad weather. In North Texas, that practical benefit is often the main reason renters choose a garage over standard surface parking.
The detached part matters too. A detached garage is not the same thing as direct-access parking attached to your apartment. You should confirm exactly where the garage sits in relation to the home you want, because the usefulness changes a lot depending on whether it is a short walk away or farther across the community. During a tour, it helps to physically walk from the specific apartment home to the actual garage location you would receive, rather than assuming every layout has the same arrangement.
For some households, the main benefit is not the vehicle itself but what happens around the vehicle. If you regularly load children, pets, mobility equipment, or bulky items, enclosed space can make routine tasks easier and more predictable. If you work odd hours, an enclosed garage may also feel more organized than relying on first-come, first-served open parking, especially when coming home late and carrying valuables. That said, the trade-off is cost, and the value depends on how often you will actually use the garage for parking instead of letting it become overflow storage.
It is also worth separating a garage from assigned parking expectations. Landmark at Crowley states that the community does not offer assigned parking spots generally, so a garage can serve as your most controlled parking setup if you want something more defined than an open surface space. If your household has more than one vehicle, ask how the garage fits with the rest of the parking arrangement, including where the second vehicle would normally go and how guest parking works.
How to compare Landmark at Crowley with other garage options
When you compare apartments, start with the parking type itself. Many listings use “garage,” “attached garage,” “detached garage,” “private garage,” and “covered parking” loosely, even though they mean different things in practice. A detached garage is an enclosed structure separate from the apartment building. A carport gives overhead cover but is not enclosed. Open parking is the least expensive option in many communities, but it offers the least protection and control. Asking for a photo, garage number, or map location helps you compare real parking setups rather than marketing language.
At Landmark at Crowley, the garage fee and carport fee create a clear decision point. If you mainly want shade and a little easier unloading, a carport may meet the need at a lower monthly add-on. If you want lockable enclosed space for the vehicle itself, a detached garage is the more relevant option. The right choice depends on whether your concern is weather exposure, security for the vehicle area, extra separation from the main parking lot, or simply convenience near your home.
Floor plan choice can matter because your daily routine changes with unit size and household setup. Landmark at Crowley offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes, including one-bedroom homes around the mid-800 square foot range, two-bedroom homes above 1,100 square feet, and a three-bedroom option at 1,545 square feet. A larger household with more gear, more drivers, or more frequent errands may feel the benefit of a garage more strongly than a solo renter who rarely drives. That does not mean one plan is better, only that the parking add-on should be evaluated alongside how you actually live.
Another smart comparison point is what the community does and does not promise elsewhere in parking. Landmark at Crowley states there is no designated guest parking area, guests may use available spaces, and guest vehicles must be registered, with re-registration required within 24 hours. That makes it especially important to ask detailed parking questions if your household often hosts visitors or has multiple drivers. A detached garage can solve one piece of the puzzle for your own vehicle, but it does not replace understanding the broader parking rules that affect everyday use.
What to verify before you commit to a garage
The first thing to confirm is availability for your intended move window, because garage access can be more limited than apartment availability itself. Ask whether the garage is leased separately or tied to a specific home, whether you can add it later, and whether the garage can be kept for the full lease term. If you are comparing more than one apartment in the community, ask which homes currently have the best garage proximity instead of assuming every option is functionally identical.
Second, confirm the practical details of use. You will want to know the garage dimensions, door clearance, whether your vehicle type fits comfortably, and whether there are any restrictions on storage or use beyond parking. This is especially important if you drive a larger SUV or pickup, use roof racks, or expect to store bicycles and seasonal items. The easiest way to verify is to see the actual garage during your visit and, if needed, bring your vehicle measurements with you.
Third, ask about access and replacement costs tied to the garage itself. Landmark at Crowley states that additional remotes or keys can be requested through the leasing office and that the fee for replacing lost or damaged garage remotes or keys is $75. That is not a reason to avoid the feature, but it is a useful operating detail to understand ahead of time if more than one household member will need access.
Finally, use the tour to judge whether the garage improves your routine enough to justify the added monthly cost. Walk the path from the parking area to the apartment, picture unloading groceries in rain, think about guest visits, and compare the detached garage fee with the carport fee and with standard parking. If that comparison still points you toward enclosed parking, call Landmark at Crowley at 682-418-0243 and ask to see the specific apartment and garage pairing you would actually be leasing.
