Grand Duke is designed to offer a comfortable lifestyle for students in Harrisonburg. Our apartments provide privacy and independence with the bonuses of included utilities, on-site maintenance, individual leasing, and fun resident events. Our fully furnished apartment community meets every need your student may have, so they can succeed in a fun, social atmosphere during their time at James Madison University.

Individual Leases

Individual leasing means peace of mind for you. Your financial responsibility is your student’s space only—unlike many shared apartments or rental houses with joint leases. That means if a roommate transfers or moves out for any reason, you don’t have to worry about covering their portion.

On-Site Professional Staff

Our on-site maintenance staff responds to maintenance issues quickly and professionally. We also offer 24-hour emergency maintenance so your student’s comfort is never affected by a maintenance issue.

Affordable Floor Plans

Grand Duke has four spacious floor plan options so you can find the one that suits your needs. We have private one-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom apartments with two levels.

Fully Furnished Apartments

Many of our floor plans are available as fully furnished apartments complete with bedroom, living room, and kitchen furniture. So there’s no need to buy and move your own!

Roommate Matching

If your student doesn’t have a roommate, we can find them one! Each roommate will fill out a Roommate Matching form so we know what they’re looking for. During the summer, we spend weeks looking at these preferences and matching them up with the best person available.

Resident Events

Here, your student will create life-long relationships and connections that will make them even more successful after graduation. Our staff plans monthly resident events to help keep students involved. We also keep our residents connected to events going on at James Madison University as well as events happening around town so they never miss a thing.
