An outdoor mall with a cinema, an arcade and restaurants set around water features. Reviews split sharply: some rate it for a family evening, while locals describe a decline and a number of empty units. One found the Saturday night live music painfully loud. The pavement gets hot in summer.
This open-air center on Highway 111 wraps shops and restaurants around fountains and waterfalls in a 30-acre landscaped setting, with a 15-screen cinema and family-friendly spots. It's free to wander, and kids love watching the cascading water features. The shaded walkways and evening breeze make it a comfortable after-dinner stroll once the sun goes down.

These two individuals are walking their dogs on a searing hot day here in Rancho Mirage without booties on. The dogs are trying to get off the pavement but they won’t listen to us when we said to pick the dogs up. Mall security has not come to escort them and they are filming me and saying “I have a big following I’m going to post you online” etc. Absolutely disgusting. If you see people doing this, please say something and report them. Thank you.

I am a local resident of the Coachella Valley & really disappointed with the decline of The River in Rancho Mirage. This place has so much potential to be really nice , if it’s owned & managed right!!! Lower the rent to get some regional anchor restaurant in , like Lazy Dog, BJ’s Restaurant, Bowling etc… so many places have closed!!! Just recent are Bath & Body Works & Five Guys ..
