River Place on the St. Lucie is a scenic, riverfront master-planned community located in Port St. Lucie, Florida (ZIP 34983). Nestled along the North Fork of the St. Lucie River, this 293-acre development offers residents a peaceful lifestyle with direct water access and abundant natural surroundings. The community comprises seven distinct neighborhoods—four single-family (Little Kayak, Moss Rose, Canoe Park Circle, Little Turtle) and three townhome sections (Bent Paddle, Eco Village, Hawk’s Ridge)—each with its own character while sharing core amenities and standards.
The lifestyle emphasizes outdoor living, with private community docks for boating, fishing, and kayaking. Nature trails wind through the area, providing opportunities for hiking and wildlife viewing. A highlight is the Plantation House, a remodeled clubhouse serving as the social hub for events and gatherings.
Residents enjoy a strong sense of community governance through the Property Owners Association (POA) and Community Development District (CDD), which collaboratively maintain common areas, infrastructure, and recreational facilities. Commercial tracts, including space for the Woodlands Montessori school, add convenience. With strict rental caps (maximum 5% per neighborhood) and emphasis on property upkeep, the community maintains a high-quality, family-friendly environment focused on preserving its natural beauty.
Proximity to Port St. Lucie parks, shopping, and dining enhances livability, making River Place ideal for those seeking a balanced, active waterfront lifestyle in a well-managed setting.
