One of the best neighborhoods in town! The leasing staff is friendly, helpful, and throw great community events. They have all the amenities I would expect from a luxury apartment building. Pets allowed as well!

The Grayson Cottages have the best amenities for the best price, are super stylish, homey, and comfortable. Plus, maintenance is quick on fixing any problems. The gym is also well maintained with a good variety.

The Domain is doing a great job. The staff is helpful and always very knowledgeable. I like the pool a lot and I also appreciate the free garbage pickup.

This is a wonderful place to live. The pool, clubhouse, and community events that are offered to residents are just a few perks. My major draw to Grindstone Canyon was that it is a pet friendly community.
