Phoenix’s Finest at Your Fingertips

When you’re a resident of Ascend at Black Canyon, Phoenix’s finest attractions will be right at your fingertips. During the summer months, you can beat the desert heat at nearby Hurricane Harbor Phoenix. If you want to soak up the sun instead, Thunderbird Conservation Park is a great spot to go hiking and enjoy scenic mountain views. If you’re in the mood for something different, make the short trip to the Musical Instrument Museum, which is also home to a concert hall. Call now to learn more.
