The Grove

Located at 1407 S Grand Ave in Ames, Iowa, this expansive single-story amenity center spans over 5,000 square feet and offers a thoughtfully designed collection of spaces for socializing, fitness, and relaxation. The entrance greets visitors with herringbone-patterned hardwood flooring, bold dark trim, and recessed lighting that sets an upscale yet inviting tone throughout. The centerpiece of the facility is a generously sized bar area featuring a long, dark-topped counter with leather bar stools, pendant lighting, and full service equipment. Adjacent lounge seating areas include bistro tables and chairs positioned beside floor-to-ceiling gridded windows overlooking an outdoor pool, allowing abundant natural light to fill the space. A cozy lounge room with a painted brick feature wall, a wood-burning fireplace, dual wall-mounted TVs, and herringbone hardwood flooring offers a comfortable gathering spot. Dramatic barn-style sliding doors connect this area to a bright sitting lounge furnished with plush sofas and accented by tall windows and chandelier lighting. The fitness facilities are divided across two rooms: one dedicated to free weights, benches, and functional training equipment, and a second outfitted with cable machines, a squat rack, and mirrored walls. Both rooms feature rubber flooring and dark-painted walls for a focused workout environment. A hallway connects all areas seamlessly throughout this well-appointed community amenity space.
