Some developments in Gold Canyon are age restricted and condominiums are always available. 

While many age restricted and oriented areas are by design, Gold Canyon happened around a golf course R.V. resort primarily built for snow birds (winter residents) in condos and RVs. In the winter, when the R.V. spaces and condos are filled Gold Canyon nearly doubles in population and it's seven golf courses all require a tee time.
