Rivers Edge at Carolina Stadium Apartments

When I moved in it took them over a week to install the kitchen faucet, so I couldn’t cook.

It is not July and it has been over a week with a broken A/C, it was 90 degrees in my room and 85 in the living room.

My dryer didn’t dry and it took them from September to June to give us a new one. The dishwasher also broke and had to be replaced and that took them a week also.

I moved in August 2023 and I have had a maintenance issue every single month since moving in. Currently, my AC has been out for the entire month of June and July in Columbia heat where it's 90+ everyday. Finally maintenance informs me they will be replacing it next week, a week before my lease ends. Management does not care about anything but getting their money, they don't care about the safety or wellbeing of their residents. When I moved in, my front door didn't lock for about a week. The AC... didn't work when I moved in. Maintenance comes into my apartment while I'm at work without informing me. They charge you late fees for rent when their website is the issue. Just the absolute worst management and complex in Columbia. Good luck to anyone who signs a lease here. If you want to live where you have maintenance issues in every single category and room of the apartment, you've hit the jackpot with Rivers Edge. Read More

Hi! "Valued" resident here. I moved into Rivers edge in August 2023, I am toward the end of my lease and decided it was time to let anyone looking into this apartment to STOP! They call us valued residents but if you have anything wrong with your apartment, you will see how much you really matter. For one move in day left an enormous amount of people with AC, in August in Columbia (it was hot as hell). Many other instances of my roommates toilet not flushing, sent someone out and they did not... fix... her brother came and fixed it because we actually wanted it fixed! Now so close to moving out and the office has been holding events, it's so nice! BUTTTTT they still can't fix stuff in your apartment. I have been without water since yesterday morning. I put in a work order for a leak in the outdoor closet on 4/2 now the leak has gone into my room and under the carpet. I called their emergency number. They came and shut the water off, about 2 hours later had a guy dehumidify the carpet. That's it, that's all that was done. Whatever pipe that is leaking not fixed, their solution was to leave a "valued resident" without water. Also I was told by a man in the office they would have been out here yesterday to fix it. No water, my closet carpet is soaking wet, and the office hasn't returned my calls. They seem great but trust me when I say it is a fake. Also they rarely have the pool open for residents to swim. RUNNNN from this place too expensive for their lack of accountability and disregard for residents. Read More

It's really not worth your money. There are far better places to live in Columbia. They don't take care of the grounds as well as they should and once left a dog waste trash can overflowing for weeks in the Dog Park. All they care about is money. My experience started off amazing, and when I needed help, no one helped me. They ignored my emails, visits and phone calls for weeks. The leasing consultants are great, but management is awful.

Management changed and now they are THE WORST place to live. They have ZERO customer service and when they messed up and lost my package and I asked what they were going to do to help me they said "sorry you're blaming us for your problems" Even though it was clearly their fault. Anytime I went to the office with a question/concern I never got an answer because the office staff "doesn't make the rules" and "are not the managers", but when you ask to speak with a manager they say they don't have... one.
Terrible, horrible place, and it's unsafe. Multiple neighbors had thefts, there were multiple reports of car thefts, and there is an issue with homeless people hanging around. Would give them zero stars if I could.
They nickel and dime you as much as possible. Terrible place to live,they took forever with maintenance responses, and the apartment was completely not updated.
Save yourself the trouble and live anywhere else. Read More
