Know Grand Lakes
Grand Lakes is a master-planned community developed by Trendmaker Development Company, mostly between the late 1990s and 2008. It sits in Houston's extraterritorial jurisdiction rather than inside any city, and it is generally considered part of Greater Katy. Fry Road forms its eastern edge, the Grand Parkway (State Highway 99) runs through the western portion, and Peek Road lies further west. Cinco Ranch borders it to the north, and the Westpark Tollway runs to the south. Addresses use Katy ZIP codes 77494 and 77450.
The community's name comes from its water: 27 man-made lakes stocked for catch-and-release fishing, connected by trails and parks. Four recreation centers each offer a pool, playground and pavilion, and there are lighted tennis courts, putting greens, a splash pad and a dog park. Phases 1 through 3 sit east of the Grand Parkway and Phase 4 lies on the west side, so the phase you are moving into decides which entrance and route the truck uses.
Most homes are detached one- and two-story brick houses in traditional and colonial styles, built by names including Trendmaker Homes, Coventry, Ashton Woods and Perry Homes. Many streets end in cul-de-sacs, which keeps through traffic down but can make parking a large truck tricky. HOA membership is mandatory, and deed restrictions cover upkeep and appearance. Students are zoned to Katy ISD schools, including Alexander Elementary, Beckendorff Junior High and Seven Lakes High School on South Fry Road.
