What happens here, if the "Saved Views" folder hasn't been created yet?

blgentry:
Finder will give an error message that it can't find that folder.  Just tested on 10.9.5.  Might be different on different versions of OSX.

I did wonder. Better to advise going one higher then?
~/Library/Application Support/J River/Media Center 2x/Library

and either enter or create Saved Views folder from there?

blgentry:
^ Probably.  But then you need to tell them to create the directory and to make sure of the spelling (caps and spaces), etc.

Mac users are difficult to author generic instructions for because they range (seemingly) across a much more broad range of experience.  Some Mac users I've helped here seem like they just got a computer last week.  Others are firmly entrenched in Mac-ism and know all of the paradigms.  Others are more like PC convert users.  Anyway, I'm not sure what the right answer is, just sharing my thoughts.
