Riverside at Coyote Rock

Executive summary: I highly recommend this community for the staff, the top-notch units, and the location.

My spouse and I lived for 3 years in a 3-bedroom townhouse at Riverside at Coyote Rock and found Brenda and Rachel, the office staff, to be kind and responsive — and also a shout-out to the maintenance folks, Andrew and Keegan, for being so delightful and helpful. They did what they said they would do, and really cared about the environment and the happiness of the residents.

The facility… itself was prisine, as we were the first people to live in it. Living in a brand-new apartment with top-notch fixtures has spoiled us, but I don't regret it. In addition, the space was utilized really well, and having a 2-car garage was amazing. Whatever sound-deadening material they put between the units really worked. Our next-door neighbors saw our moving truck but when they didn't hear anyone in the next door unit, thought no one had actually moved in until we met each other in the driveway a month later. Meanwhile, we had been blasting music and talking loudly, and it blew our minds that our next-door neighbors though the unit was empty. It felt like living in a detached house, not in a shared situation.

As some have mentioned, the river gets busy in the summer, which is why we chose not to live on the river side, but to live a few minute's walk from one of the most beautiful city rivers was worth it. We loved seeing the river up close through all 4 seasons, and to be able to walk a bit upstream, float leisurely down, and walk home with our floaties was a huge benefit. Every Lyft driver who dropped us off would exclaim at how nice the area was, and how surprising to find it tucked off of Trent Avenue. Read More

Not sure what was going on with the low reviews as I've experienced nothing of the sort since moving here in mid-April.

Even though we've only been here for a short time, I can't imagine ever wanting to live anywhere else! Jennifer and Brenda helped us every step of the way in selecting and leasing our apartment while we were still living in Pennsylvania. When we arrived, we realized that if anything, they under-sold just how nice this place is!

The neighborhood is gorgeous and tucked away… from all the hustle and bustle, yet close to all of the shopping, restaurants and services you could ever want.

The community is adjacent to the Centennial trail that runs from Spokane to Coeur d'Alene and follows the Spokane River all the way!

Our dog loves being near so many hiking trails and swimming spots - not to mention the two community dog parks.

The place is well-built, and we hardly hear our neighbors. Each apartment has a garage, and if you're on the first floor, it's attached! Read More

I have not lived in an apartment since 1993 and was not looking forward to living in one again. However, as we awaited the sale of our home, it was a necessity. I have been so thankful that we chose Riverside at Coyote Rock! The management is on top of managing, the clubhouse and common area are great, the pickle ball court is a great place to have fun and the ability to go on walks in a beautiful setting is an added bonus to the spacious apartment we enjoy. The patio with the fire pit and… outdoor lights twinkling in the snow made a perfect backdrop for my sons proposal to his fiancé last week! Read More

I've lived here for 3 months now so I feel I can put in an honest review.
To start:
Every apt has a dedicated parking space and a garage which I consider a significant bonus. My apt has the garage attached, which means I can access the garage directly from my apartment so it acts as a "storage area. My apartment is on the ground floor. My car is parked in a (my) designated space directly in front of my garage. This set up (configuration) is attractive and was really factored in my decision to… live here. There is plenty of free parking still available if you have guests ect.
Since I live on the ground floor, I don't find that having people above me detracts from this place. I can tell every now and then that they're there, but the apt construction is solid enough that sound transfer is minimal. I suppose if the neighbors were really noisy that might be an issue.

That brings me to the onsite property management. I have found them to be super friendly and responsive to inquiries and sending out relevant notifications. If there was an issue, I feel they'd be responsive to it. They are located in the "club house" at one of the entrances as you drive in. Again, they are always super friendly and welcoming.
The club house is an added benefit if you live here. It is a space that is meant for the tenants of the complex. It has a fire place and some nice amenities that are part of the package. I mean it has a fenced in covered patio with 2 gas grills that are available for use anytime as part of your rental. I use the feature(s) here and am a bit surprised that more folks don't. In a separate area of the same building there is an exercise room that has top notch equipment. Maybe save you a few bucks vs having a gym membership. either way the convivence of this can't be overstated.
Last...
The location. (EXCELLENT) I'm a walker. I try to get 3+ miles in daily. The area is safe, and so conveniently located to the river and associated walking trails (centennial trail is 200 ft from my door) that you'd think you were really living rurally. In some ways you are. I understand the trail can get a bit noisy in the summer, which for some might be a detractor, but for me indicative of the vibrancy of life people enjoying the outdoors.
Major shopping is minutes if you drive. If you don't have a vehicle, shopping might be an issue.
In terms of cost... mmmm, 6 of this, 1/2 dozen of that. Well maintained, safe, conveniently located to the best around. I feel its worth it. Read More
