    Default Grotto constructions?

    I've always liked the Playboy Mansion Grotto.

    Are there any construction/deisgn companies out there doing these? Or is it individual designs every time?

    Any high end pool/hardscape design company can do it for you.

    Where do you live?

    I think that would fall more into the realm of a Landscape Contractor depending on how big and complex it gets and what structure might be needed (which may move into other fields).

    To answer your question, I would not think there is a standard grotto design that everyone likes/ fits in every yard. I would think it's a custom design every time.

    I suppose that gives the impression of a somewhat promiscuous appearance.

    Talk to a Landscape Architect in your area, they can suggest a qualified contractor.

    You may need to have them stamp it if it's fully covered like the Playboy example.
