We just moved in on December 1st. Greatest decision we ever made. The view, the people, the location the list goes on. Thank you Brittany for all that you do to service this community!

I can’t say enough how much I love living here. First, I love my apartment and the gorgeous view, the layout, the awesome kitchen and the great bathroom. I love the building itself with such great amenities. I use the amazing and surprisingly well decked out gym, all the time - and it is never crowded. The pool is amazing. Just walking in everything smells nice and is wonderfully open, spacious.And the team - always super helpful! I love them the most. Any question. Ask. Need help. They’re there within hours (or minutes!). Jorge is the best! And Michael has been truly a godsend.I am not giving up this apartment. It’s truly home!

I don’t have enough good things to say about RSJ and the dedicated staff that manage it! Michael, Britney, and Diego have been absolutely lovely since the first moment I stepped on property. They do a fabulous job of tending to community needs and also planning and throwing lovely events for us! The apartment building is gorgeous and filled with kind, interesting, and polite residents.The neighborhood is incredibly walkable, to the point that sometimes I don’t drive at all for weeks at a time. Some of my favorites are RAM, Memorial Park, The Cummer Museum, and the SUP (and those are all within 2 blocks).The river is it’s own entire character and keeps me in awe! From constant dolphins, to rare manatees, the diverse birds + boats, to the sunrises + sets, and occasional rainbows there is just ALWAYS something to see.RSJ is also very welcoming to dogs, rather than just tolerant of them. They celebrate dog holidays with special treats in the leasing office, but even if it’s just a regular day they are always there ready to offer pets + treats. There are dog waste bags and trashbins all around the property to make it very convenient to pick up after your dog (which in turn means everyone DOES). They also have a paw spa complete with shampoo and of course, more treats! The walkability of the neighborhood also just makes it a fun place to have a dog. There’s always a new walking route to discover, and there’s both a dog park and a dog BAR within 1.5 miles!I am extremely pleased with my decision to live here and do not plan on leaving anytime soon! ??☀️??

We will be living here starting in December. From the moment we walked into the leasing office we were both blown away by the friendly, caring and professional attitude of Brittany, the leasing agent! As we toured the property, we realized how exceptional Riverside St. Johns is compared to everywhere else we looked. The amenities are outstanding and the views of the river are like a beautiful painting!! You will not be disappointed by this property! We consider it an honor to be able to live here!!

Riverside St John's customer service is excellent (5 Stars). I just moved to the city of Jacksonville and Mrs. Brittany Blair (leasing manager) and Riverside St. Johns staff helped me with everything I needed and still need related with this process. I greatly appreciate their help and recommend them 100%. The area has an excellent view of the river and very good energies in a relaxed atmosphere. Thank you!

I cannot recommend living here enough! I’ve lived in apartments across the country and nothing even comes close to living here! Everyone that works here goes above and beyond to make living here amazing, especially the manager, Micheal and their maintenance workers. We wanted to hang sliding barn doors in our apartment and checked before hand if it was ok and not only did they say yes their maintenance manager actually came and helped us put them up! We had an issue with our washer, and they came over within an hour to fix it.The apartments are gorgeous (almost completely brand new and the appliances are great) and are insanely clean. They even have outlets that have direct USB charging ports, in case you’re like me and somehow always lose the brick that you plug into the wall. They are on the River so there are gorgeous views, a gated parking garage so you can park on the same level as your apartment, valet trash that comes several times a week, and even a complimentary Starbucks machine that can make not just coffee but my favorite, a chai tea latte. Everyone living here is super friendly and you have plenty of opportunities to meet other residents. They have activities pretty much every week. Rooftop yoga every other Saturday, food trucks, and plenty of other things. Our second day in they had a pool party with a DJ, food, and filled a blow up kiddie pool with drinks for the kids and adult beverages for everyone 21+. And they are super pet friendly! I have two dogs, and one is around 100 lbs which can make finding somewhere challenging but they were great. They have treats in the office, a different pet of the month every month where they hang up a picture of your pet in the elevators and office with a cute description, complementary dog bags and waste receptacles around almost every door that leads outside, and a mobile pet groomer that comes so you can have your dog groomed literally steps outside your apartment (in case you don’t want to use the in house grooming room that has two gorgeous dog baths and a professional grade blow dryer for your pet). Would definitely recommend living here!

Wonderful place to live. The location is absolutely perfect. New building and friendly people. Micheal and Brittany in the leasing office are awesome and go out of their way to make this place a home for their residents.

After living here for two years, I recently moved out due to some career changes. I will sincerely miss it though. RSJ is in an unmatched location, has great amenities (that are never too crowded), a spectacular management team (I love Micheal!), and generally respectful neighbors. From the time I moved in to the time I turned in my keys, Micheal and her team were so accommodating, kind, and responsive. I only had a two maintenance issues in the two years I lived there and they were both handled swiftly. If it's in your budget, I definitely recommend considering RSJ.

This apartment community is THE hidden gem of Riverside! You will not find a more well kept community or a better management and maintenance team anywhere in Jacksonville. The location is perfect (so close to parks, museums, the Arts market, and 5 Points), the amenities are terrific, and the apartment itself is spacious and well laid out. We are the happiest we've ever been and don't have plans to leave anytime soon!

I had a wonderful experience of a tour with Brittany on today. The entire complex was amazing. The views were breathtaking. Everyone that encountered was very inviting. I am looking at complexes as I my current lease will be up for renewal in July. I think that I have found my new place. I even had the pleasure of speaking with a resident who informed me that he was very happy with his unit and that he had just renewed his lease. Michael and Brittany were very friendly and accommodating. I look forward to seeing you ladies in July!!!

We are just a month in and the staff here are really amazing! Micheal is such a thoughtful and caring property manager. She seriously aims to keep our community looking and feeling good. Also her team, our maintenance crew, Diego and Melvin, are very kind and quick to fix and keep up the property. We feel peaceful and comfortable here.

Lovely apartment building with its pros and cons.Pros:1. smooth move-in process and very responsive management. We moved in back in 2020 from out of state when the building was under old management but honestly the new team is even better in accommodating residents.2. the maintenance team is the best! we didn’t have a lot of issues but when there were some they would assist us asap.3. the amenities are great. Beautiful club room/lounge with free coffee and nice rooftop pool.4. dog friendly management and building!They had doggo competition each month with such nice gifts for the fur babies. We loved it!5. variety of community events. This is a nice one! They throw pretty nice community parties/events almost every month. We deff enjoyed taking part in it.6. location is kind of walkable.. you have a small dog park in a walking distance (10-15mins) and a teeny tiny park on the river (few mins away); a few coffee shops nearby, a grocery store (hate Publix but oh well haha) a few great rest/bars in 5 points. There’s a river walk 10mins away and a cute little farmers market under the bridge every weekend. Also art museum is blocks away which is nice too. Downtown 10 mins drive.7. parking was free I believe and it takes you right to the floor you live on so no need to take elevator which was almost never broken, btw.8. Pretty inexpensive building.9. I can actually go on about pros but I don’t have time, so..Cons:1. One of the old management members was politely nasty almost all the time.2. The garage doors were constantly broken. And it’s because of some residents that would speed up while the door is half open.. but that’s another story.. There were break-ins in residents’ cars, I had someone break into my car as well. Police does nothing with their car being on the grounds..3. Resident alert ? Idk if this is the culture or something else but some residents would smile you in the face and then let their dogs pee all over the building right ON THE FLOOR right after you’ve walked away (and yeah, I was a spy lol so I knew exactly who was letting their dogs pee and p*** on the floors, shame on such people!) Anyways, mostly everyone was very responsive in cleaning up after their pets.4. Location.. it’s 50/50 and con would be that it’s located in area filled with homeless people and it’s just unpleasant overall walking from the river to 5 points/the bridge/anywhere else.. feels like a little ghetto. But okay I’m spoiled by Manhattans lifestyle so it was a shock for me that there are places with unattractive streets, sidewalks OR EVEN WITH NO SIDEWALKS. Personally, the location was giving me anxiety vibes all the time.. No wholefoods or Trader Joe’s in walking distance, no decent coffee shops (Lack of Jax in general), no healthy smoothie places, etc. you have to drive to get something, ugh.Also this neighborhood is a mix of Georgia and FL with surrounding poor neighborhoods and highway nearby which makes the location so so. If you’re like me relocating from a big city then choose the area wisely.5. Lack of amenities.. there could be a jacuzzi or a bigger pool, a dog run or children playroom, sauna or steam room but better if both..6. very thin walls and ceilings/floors I suppose.. every other morning a beautiful sound of a vacuum at 6:30am from upstairs unit would wake us up. I wonder just why, why someone needs to clean their bedroom at 6:30 in the morning on a Tuesday??! Didn’t file any complaint about that, tho. we had someone from downstairs complaining on our dogs for being noisy.Overall it is a decent building with nice amenities and events, great new management (special shout out to Micheal) and small but polite community in semi residential area. I would definitely recommend moving in here if you’re okay with all of the above.
