River offers a suburban feel with convenience
Despite its name, San Jacinto's River neighborhood has no reservoirs; instead, it's mostly desert and farmland, backdropped by mountain views. Mt. San Jacinto College sits next door, downtown amenities are nearby, and a popular resort operates 5 miles down the road. "The biggest draw in San Jacinto itself would be Soboba Casino Resort," says Dave Hume with Vogler Feigen Realty, who has sold in the area since 2018. "The spectacular Soboba Springs Golf Course also hosts large professional qualifiers and amateur events," he says. Residents enjoy entertainment at Soboba and a diverse landscape for outdoor recreation, all at a relatively low price point for Riverside County.
Farmland and mountains rather than streams surround the neighborhood of River.
Soboba Resort is the biggest draw of the San Jacinto neighborhood of River.

A neighborhood with cul-de-sacs and a 55-plus community
Though most of the neighborhood comprises open fields, desert terrain and a large dairy farm, River has a cluster of homes south of Blodgett Street. Single-family Spanish Revivals feature well-kept lawns fronted by paved sidewalks. Prices for these properties often fall between $450,000 and $550,000. The neighborhood is relatively affordable compared to other cities in the county, as a six-bedroom home with a private pool in River may cap at $550,000. A similar property in Riverside would cost at least double. Buyers aged 55-plus may purchase a manufactured home in the gated Heritage Ranch community for $70,000 to $200,000.

Playgrounds, golf courses and state parks provide outlets for fun
River's primary outdoor gathering space is Sagecrest Park, which features a playground, open fields and shaded picnic tables, all a quick walk from most homes. Potter Ranch and Sky View parks have similar amenities nearby, and hikers and campers head about 25 miles away to Mount San Jacinto State Park. Hume says that Soboba Casino Resort has 21 new pickleball courts, and an outdoor pool with cabanas and a bar. The resort is home to the public Soboba Springs Golf Course, and the public Golden Era Golf Course is also right outside the neighborhood. Valley-Wide Regional Park off Esplanade Avenue is another hub for outdoor activities. "It's a large family park with covered picnic areas, playgrounds, sports fields and basketball, volleyball and tennis courts," Hume says.
