Gold Canyon Golf/RV Resort

Hi All,
Looking for opinions on this park. I searched the this forum but only found comments for Canyon Vista. From what I can find on the net, it looks like a pretty nice park.
Cheers.

  • We have stayed at Gold Canyon RV & Golf Resort and are currently at Canyon Vistas. We prefer Canyon Vistas because of bigger spaces and friendlier people. At GCRV&G our rv was his by a golf ball, and the park model next to us was hit a number of times. They sell park models in both parks and casitas in Superstition Views, but no pressure to buy. CV has nice dog parks, softball field, three happy hours each week, and lots of activities. We shall return to Canyon Vistas
  • Why are you looking at Gold Canyon? There are at least 20 RV parks with 50% RV spots in and around the area. Go to Apache Junction and Mesa, most north of Hwy 60. Look on north Ironwood. Some have wide spaces and some have only a few amenities if that is a need. We used Santa Fe RV park for a couple of years and really liked it. It is a Passport America park or was when we used it. It is the last RV Park on North Ironwood.

    Thanks for the replies. Not sure if I am any further ahead. Looked at photos of Canyon Vista and it reminds me of the Palms in Yuma. Great pool area but the lots remind me of a sub division. And now I see they are pushing to sell lots for Casita's, just like in Yuma. I guess we'll find out next year. I think we might take advantage of the Cal-Am parks in Mesa and use the Passport America for a weeks stay and take the opportunity to scout out parks within Mesa, Apache Junction and Gold Canyon.
    We just want a change from California especially around the Palm Springs (Coachella Valley) area. If all else fails we'll return to Borrego Springs, expensive but worth it.
    Cheers.


    Just about every resort in the SW is pushing park models. They just use RV to make a living until they can hook people for year round rent for a park model. CVRVR is still mostly RV's and a very nice Resort. Sites are basically 40W x 50D! We spent 6 days in Mesa at Val Vista and I could hardly get between the TV mirror and the side of the MH next to me. And that was with a narrow slab!

    We spent 5 winters at CVRVR starting 2008-09 and we are here for a week trying to get setup for next year to spend 3 months when I am done with yacht club officers duties. Had a nice dance last night with live band for $10.

    Gold Canyon Golf/RV has a high percentage of park models. Managed with an iron fist.

    CVRVR is better, larger sites, and friendlier. Love the RC race track and other activities.

    Great area BTW. Out of the city, but everything one needs is back up Hwy 60 1-6 exits. Local grocery store and drug store.

  • I live about 2 miles from the resort. Nice resort. Go to RV Park Review and the city of Gold Canyon in AZ for good information. Email back if other questions.
  • Sorry I was not clear in my question. It's the Roberts park I am interested in. "Gold Canyon Golf/RV Resort". According to Google maps, Canyon Vista is located beside and behind GC RV resort.
