Cottonwood Vista
By Jessica Car · Updated April 2026
Large single-family homes built by PCS Group and Meritage on quarter-acre lots, many backing to open space, just east of Thomas Reservoir. Three to five bedrooms with high-quality, energy-efficient construction. The reservoir's walking trails are steps away, and the $56/month HOA covers trash and recycling.
