Riverside Cottages @ The Shores, LLC

Shores Boulevard in St. Augustine sits south of the historic downtown that draws visitors from across the country to the nation's oldest continuously occupied European-founded city, and Riverside Cottages at The Shores operates 72 beds there. That size sits comfortably in mid-size territory, generally enough to offer more structured, varied programming than a small home while remaining more manageable in scale than the largest campuses in bigger metro counties. St. Johns County has one of the higher median ages in Florida, and its assisted living market reflects sustained local demand rather than just tourist-adjacent development. A fair question to ask at this scale is how the 'cottages' concept in the name actually plays out in daily staffing and room layout.
