Golden Vista Resort is turning 40, and we’re throwing a celebration you won’t want to miss!
Kick off the fun on Friday, March 14, at 10 AM with a lively Fun Walk around the resort, where surprise pit stops await with prizes and excitement.
After the walk, head to the Ballroom for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, then swing by the Pool Patio for free hot dogs and good company.
And what’s a party without music? The Cul-de-Sac Cowboys will be bringing the tunes, so get ready for a day of laughter, memories, and nonstop fun!

Golden Vista Telephone System Will Shut Down March 15th
Golden Vista Resort’s Infrastructure Committee couldn’t find a suitable replacement for the old phone system. At the December Board meeting, the Board voted to shut it down on March 15th. Until then, current service remains available. Residents relying on resort phones should switch to a cell plan. For 911 access, any charged cell phone will work without service. DSL users won’t be affected.
