We are never waiting around wondering when maintenance will fix something- it always gets done in a timely manner. Glen especially, has always gone above and beyond and met all expectations.

Rivers Edge is neat

Perfectly 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.
