Could be worse, I guess.
May 26, 2025Parking is awful. Guests get the same parking privileges as people who pay to park here, so there’s odds of actually getting to park near my door on any given evening is very low. My kids and I often have to walk pretty far, and when we have things to carry it’s worse. I had to buy a wagon just for shopping trips because I never know if I’ll get a reasonable spot. The bugs are terrible. I often have centipedes and spiders. Generally once a day or so I’ll have to deal with something crawling ...around. The buildings smells bad and the carpet in my apartment is impossible to deodorize. There are birds living in my A/C unit so I’m usually afraid to turn it on in the warmer months. Kids like to run across the parking lot so you have to be very careful driving. On the plus side, rent is lower than most places. The staff in the office are friendly and quick to respond to things. It’s nice having two pools when they are open. Overall, it’s been an okay place to live as a single mom, but I am very much looking forward to finding something nicer when my lease is up.Property Manager Responded
May 28, 2025"Dear Anonymous. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback—we truly appreciate hearing from our residents. We're sorry to learn of the concerns you've experienced. Please know that we can only address issues such as the pest concern or the air conditioning if we're made aware of them, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We've promptly shared your comments with our on-site team, and we've been informed that they have already reached out to you to begin resolving the matter. Parking is limited, and that is why we limit the number of guest parking passes issued per day. Parking is on a first-come, first-served basis. However, if you are interested in a reserved spot that is close to your building, please reach out to the office to discuss paying for a spot in the garage.

Perfect Madison Experience
March 31, 2025The location of this apartments is what initially sold me. Tenney park right around the corner, perfect for families and pets, walking, gorgeous runs, ice skating in the winter. Bus stop near by, the chocolate shoppe also right there, and biking distance from the capital. I would stay here forever but life is taking me else-where. I also felt it was in a very safe part of Madison if that is in your concerns. The staff are great, recognized me every time I went to pickup a package even though I'm ...not the most social. All maintenance requests were taken care of quickly! I highly recommend Rivers Edge Apartments!!!Property Manager Responded

Great place to live
March 24, 2025Management and Maintenance staff are friendly, professional, and prompt. Rent is reasonable, they make renewing a lease super convenient/easy and location-wise, you're close by so many great places. With the exception of a few broken water mains (which have since been fixed), have never had a bad experience here and would highly recommend living here.Property Manager Responded
March 25, 2025Dear reviewer, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad to hear that you've had such a positive time living here and that our team has made things easy and enjoyable for you. We appreciate your understanding of the water main issues and are happy to know they’ve been resolved. It’s great to hear you’re enjoying the location and all the conveniences Rivers Edge has to offer. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

Rivers Edge is neat
July 12, 2024Perfectly located next to Tenney Park, Rivers Edge is in my opinion, the best value for the quality provided, in Madison. Clean and well kept. Pools, a gym, affordable underground parking are such great assets! The management staff is friendly and professional as well.Property Manager Responded
