Riverton on the Platte

Absolutely the worst apartments lived in ever. They’re nice inside which is about all. The master bedroom has flooded 3 times now (we’re on the 1^st floor). They cant seem to fix it, but they’re in breach of contract due to not compensating us for our unusable area. We’ve had issues with both of the toilets in the apartment at least 5 times and they still don’t work properly. Our hot water has gone out twice now. They told us we could have a grill, any size, then say we can’t due to fire restrictions. The parking is a joke here. We’re in the process of switching to a new management company and we’ve contacted them about these issues and they still have not gotten back to us. It’s been almost a week now. For the price you pay ($ 1500 in rent alone) for a 2 bedroom, this is unacceptable. Don’t waste your time or money to live here.

Clean and updated apartment. It would be nice if everyone would clean up after there pets. Parking is a pain.

The front office is very helpful! Maintenance staff is very prompt and easily accessible. I would like to see a community bike rack instead of having to carry and make room on your balcony for your bike. Being so close to the light rail and the Platte River trail it’s a perfect place to utilize a bike.

I’ve had a few unpleasant conversations with Samantha, (I think she’s the manager) she’s not the nicest person. However, Gigi and Chery in the front office are the sweetest and friendliest women I’ve ever met. They are always so helpful and kind.
Maintenance is very fast and efficient and have always fixed things to my liking.
I really wish they would put in a bike rack as my bike is pretty heavy and I live on the third floor. This deters me from riding my bike which is very unfortunate because it is an opportune place to do such an activity.

Very nice, modern apartments. The washer and dryer in the unit are key. Staff is friendly, pool is really nice.
We have a balcony facing Hampden, and all of the things on the balcony are caked in soot from the traffic. I’m sure it wouldn’t be a problem if you had one of the many other units that don’t face the busy street, but it is a downside. Other than that, it is a good place to live, and very affordable compared to the city.

I found out that they did not rip out the carpet upstairs and the new neighbors are just heavy walkers. Oops. Can’t blame them for that one. Riverton rocks… GiGi and Sherry rock!

My husband and I have enjoyed our time at Riverton on the Platte. The office staff is always great to work with and they are prompt the requests made by residents. Great location to light rail and Santa Fe — central locale! We enjoy the surrounding neighborhoods.

I have been living here for a year now, and looking to renew my lease. The prices are very decent for the amenities, newly built, spacious models. I feel the pet rent is a bit expensive 40 $ a month plus $ 300 overall rent for cats and dogs. You would think for cats it would be cheaper. Parking sucks, but it’s tolerable.

I like the Riverton a lot. The prices are reasonable and the units are so modern and new. The staff is awesome and accommodating!

Roommate and I have lived here for a year and extended our lease. Very reasonable pricing for the influx of residents to Denver. Have run into a couple of maintenance issues and parking is not consistently available, but the staff could not be friendlier. Love the pool and gym, very happy with our time spent here.

I have lived here since July. We started out loving the place.
Our apartment is beautiful. The management has been very nice and helpful with any information we needed. And I love that they are here 7 days a week.
The pools great, I love the gym.
Things have since then gone down hill a bit.
We have loud neighbors above us, that bang on the floor constantly all day long. My husband sleeps during the day, so this is pretty inconvenient. Neighbors leave windows open, or dogs on their balcony during the day, which leads to excessive barking whenever I take my dog out, they do have poop bags for dog cleanup, but hardly anyone uses them. I’ve seen poop on the sidewalks even. One of the women in my building also has sent her dog downstairs off of the leash while she stays up stairs. Crazy.
Currently my biggest concern with this place is that on Friday, we found a bed bug in our bathroom. I have only seen the one. And today (Tuesday) they are having a exterminater out to go through our place. At which time me and my 2 kids, and husband, and dog have to be out of our place for 2 – 4 hours.
I appreciate that they are getting someone out here quickly, but I have never had a bug problem in any place I’ve lived, and for the price of these apartments I would have expected them to be clean and bug free. I am very disappointed with the downhill slide this place has taken since we fell in love with our apartment just 3 month ago, But we will definitely be moving once our lease is up.

Office staff are very kind and responsive for the most part. Maintained has been quick with my small requests. It is extremely quiet in my building other than the traffic you would think no one lives here. Nice pool, hot tub and work out room.
Parking can be an issue but after expressing my concern to staff they told me they are taking care of it. Which it really hasn’t been taken care of.

For the most part, my apartment is nice! Very spacious and huge patio! The two complaints I do have is that the downstairs neighbor passive aggressively pounds on the ceiling when they deem us being too loud. The other is another neighbor allowing her dogs to pee on the stairs leading to the parking garage. It’s gross and you should feel ashamed.

1 star because of location to light rail and mountains. The other star because my friends and I all moved into the complex together. Good times were had as young professionals in a new city.
Other than that terrible. New management has been horrible and leasing office is rude. Maintenance deserves a star but because you have to deal with the leasing office to get to them the star is lost.
Moving out soon after multiple years living here. Everyone I know that has left has. Wen destroyed by fee’s upon move out. Most I have heard is $ 5,000.00. Will update once I move out. Took care of my place and I have an old unit without the upgrades.
Have a feeling I’ll be the sucker they screw to pay for their «upgrades» as I have seen by past experiences with other prior residents.

The apartment complex is decently maintained, the hallways will have litter in the same spot for days. I find the apartments to be loud, the person above me is incredibly loud and my neighbor has dogs that howl, both of which I have to listen to every day. Parking is terrible!!! I drove around the complex one night looking for a spot that was uncovered, none were available, I had no other options but to park in a covered spot where no car ever parks, within 2 hours my car was towed and cost just over $ 300 to retrieve, they never gave me a satisfactory answer when I asked where I’m to park when no spots are available. The towing company bent my door frame and scratched the paint but that’s a different issue. They sent out the e-​notice for rent 3 days late and charged me a late fee as well as placing a letter on my door for late rent, even though it was their fault for this. In a nutshell, management sucks.
On the upside, the apartments themselves are nice inside and the pool is fantastic. Location is great too with the light rail across Santa Fe. The office girls are friendly and very helpful.

I have lived here for 4 years. The management is always wonderful and the maintenance is spectacular. I love the location, even though the rent is outrageous… that’s the only downside… but that’s apartments for you. Overall I’d recommend these apartments though, they are pretty nice.

The staff did not ask me to write this review. I’ve lived here for over a year, and we are renting before our house purchase. I do not regret living here.
The pros:
work out room
pool
club house
ample parking
little to no noise issues
friendly and informative staff
close to lots of destinations (from corporate storefronts to mountains)
über pet friendly
high ceilings
60-​day notice (instead of typical 30-​day)
The cons:
posted speed is 10mpg and not always followed
sometimes tenants don’t close the walk-​through gates behind them
drive-​in gates seem to be broken often
Some rat-​fink tenants partied it up and caused the previous privilege of 24-​hour access to the gym to be limited to a new time restriction: 5am — 10pm. If management had a crystal ball and could prevent these numnuts from ruining this for everyone, I’d buy them all cookies.
We face north, sort of east, and it’s quiet on this side. We walked through all the floor plans and opened the patio doors and windows to test our sound tolerance.
There’s plenty of parking: open, carport, double level garage and single garages.
We didn’t get hit with hidden fees… we read the fine print and asked a sh– ton questions. We’re annoying that way. :) I suggest you raise your annoying flag high whenever you make a financial commitment.
Here’s what you should know…“basic” rent is for the apartment only. The «upgrade» models are more expensive by about $ 40 — $ 50 /​month, last time I checked. There are extra fees for a parking space that is not open. Washer and dryer come with apartment. Do not pay rent using your VISA; there’s a heart-​attack inducing processing fee. Your pet will need to pay rent. Recycling bins fill fast. For a fee, there is extra storage available around complex.
I’m giving 4 stars because of the constant gate issues.

My boyfriend and I have had terrible experiences with apartment living, so when it was time to find a new place to live we had been looking at the Riverton because it looked so nice! We’ve been here for almost a year and we really like it. We have never had any noise problems or rude experiences with the staff. The only issues we’ve had are people parking in front of our garage leaving it difficult to get our boat out… but hey, their garages are big enough to store our boat… and we have complained about that and nothings been done. People do tend to speed and we’ve complained about that as well… but i dont knwo what they could do besides put up MPH signs, which i think they did put up. It is a gated community, but it may as well not be… so the other review is definitley right about that. The gate is open a lot and we get numerous flyers tapped to our front door. Other then that we absolutely love the pool, work out room, and hot tub. We’ve made great friends with our neighbors. I’ve noticed this complex is full of younger couples that tend to live here before purchasing their first home. The building is solid and updated. Very dog friendly… my dog has so many friends here! I love living so close to target, costco, panera bread, chilis, and texas roadhouse. Concidering all the other apartment complexes around here, this place is definitely the best. Cops are never being called, not to many white trash people, noise has never ever been an issue, its very clean and great maintenence crew. We’ve yet to come across hidden charges or being lied too, but i’m keeping my fingers crossed that wont happen when we do move out. There is going to be people you don’t like at every apartment complex, but this one has the least amount of trashy people! All in all, i think this is a great place to live and i’m really happy here… but we will be looking to move so our dog can have a backyard and thats honestly the biggest reason we want to move. The apartment has tons of windows and is bright! Many times I don’t even have to turn ont he lights bc there is so much light from all the windows. There are many different layouts to choose from. I live in the smaller 2bed/​2bath and Its a perfect size for me, my boyfriend, our dog and kitty. The master bedroom bathroom is great with a huge walk in closet. Love the huge bathtub! I tried to be honest and real in this review… there will always be problems in apartment living… but we’ve had the best experience here. So i recommend it.

Do not Rent Here. Unreasonable hidden charges and management does not work with you. Got the run around and was lied to. Could never get any straight answers. They’ll get you in the door and then change their tune. Beware!

Beautiful apartments. Love the layout of the whole thing, the kitchen, the bedroom and closet. Very nice!
Definite possibility for my next apartment.
