One night stay and the best customer service I have had for as long as I can remember. The staff were knowledgeable and extremely helpful with everything. Being the middle of summer and 111 degrees, they came and got me in their cart for everywhere I needed to go on the property. The casitas are amazing and look to have been recently upgraded. Very comfortable bed and great amenities.

Thank you Gold Canyon for the amazing stay!

Property was beautiful - very close to the Superstition Mountains. Had a nice lunch at the restaurant overlooking the golf course. The room was very clean as it is mostly tiled. This property was only about 30-35 minutes to the Boyce Thompson Arboretum so that was convenient.

When we called the front desk they placed us in a different room which was much cleaner and nicer. They were accommodating and friendly throughout the process. Lovely resort and staff.

Gorgeous, clean, quiet, spacious, and safe. Hotel suite included a patio. A little hard to find the hotel room at night in the dark if you're not familiar with the layout but very safe to walk around the premise at night. Checked in late at night and staff in the lobby was very friendly and helpful. In the daytime, it is beautiful (even from the parking lot). I would definitely stay here again.

Although a beautiful property near the Superstition Mountains some detail to care is needed if it’s to be concerned a 4 star resort. The room we stayed in a one king room with patio appeared that it hadn’t been used in a while, dusty on floors and counter tops. The pool and hot tub look beautiful but was disappointing as the pool was < 70 degrees and hot tub might have been at 80degrees! There isn’t many dinner places near Gold Canyon and ended up driving to Gilbert which has many nice restaurants and great atmosphere for nightly dinning. Service at golf course was very friendly and good and able to play a round in less than 4 hrs on a Saturday. We played ‘sidewinder ‘ which was nice and in fairy decent shape but hard to compare as the previous day we were at the Omni Tucson national where everything was top notched! It is a good place to stay if you are planning on hiking in the Superstition mtn. But need to care for the outdoor areas of the pool and hot tub

The room was \"surface clean\" but needed a deep cleaning. The baseboards were dirty and so was the bathtub mat. I needed a plug behind the bed stand, there was dirt and trash that had been there a long time. The ac/heating unit had a note aped to the thermostat to not lower it below 70 because it would freeze. It would kick on about every 30 mins and it sounded like a plane taking off over the bed. Kept waking me up. The staff was nice. The main bldg and golf course looked nice.

Dissapointed !

We were really looking forward to this stay.
Parking was terrible. Had to make 3 trips up a long path, up and down hills in 109 degree weather to get our luggage, golf clubs, etc.
The split level room was different. The TV was very small and was up by the ceiling. It hurt our neck to look up from the lower level couch. From the bed area, we could not see or hear it because was at least 20 feet away.
You could see through the front door. The door was actually split in several places and the seal was awful. The AC unit was right behind the bed wall and very loud. It came on every 15 minutes the whole night keeping us awake. The heat just came right through the front door. There was no microwave. There was no Ice anywhere except in the restaurant. You had to take your Ice bucket and walk up and down the hilly terrain to get ice. But you had to make sure to get it before the restaurant closed at 9:00 PM. Then we had a cricket \"chirping\"at 11:00 pm. Found it 15 minutes later under the couch.
The Sidewinder golf course was average.
The driving range was small and only have mats to hit off of so no driver practice. No sand bottles, no rakes in the sand traps. They said if you land in a foot print or divot to just move your ball to a different spot in the trap. Really! They said it was because of COVID. Funny thing is that this was the only thing they were still doing from COVID. No masks, anywhere, no surface wipes, etc. Seems like they just didn't want to do the work.

For a resort and spa the place was very plain, but

We stayed here on our last night of a 6 day trip for my BFF's Bachelorette trip! We stayed in a Beautiful VRBO in Scottsdale with the gals she grew up with. I am from the area, so I decided to stay another day to meet up with my own child hood friends and my BFF wanted to meet them! Excited, we booked a hotel nearest to my home town but we wanted options to golf and river raft or find hiking fun in case they weren't available. We took an Uber to GCGR and when we arrived the two young gals that checked us in had no idea what hours the restaurant was open or if they were open at all. They didn't know where to get a menu but offered to make a copy when we do find one. We were immediately unimpressed. We finished check in. Luckily a women walking through the lobby saw &asked if we needed help! She was amazing! She gave us a menu and was well informed. She said it was her 5th day! She must have really paid attention in training because she was amazing! mark came and picked us girls up in a cart with all of our luggage and we headed back to the café where my friends form child hood trickled in. OH MY GOODNESS did we have fun! The restaurant staff were so patient and supportive and we tipped everyone as often as possible for being so accommodating. We closed the café down and stayed through their \"lull\" and stayed through dinner and closed it down from the outside patio where we watched the sunset and bonded with two little lovely ladies in their 80\"s! What an amazing experience!

We had a glitch as it was an expedia reservation but the front desk was friendly and assisted in getting us into a room. The room was spacious and had a beautiful view of the valley that was a little lower level than we were. Beautiful at night and great patio for morning. There is a trail right behind the hotel room. The room is clearly needing a refresh and update. The large tub in the room was outdated, there was not microwave, the bedding seemed out dated, the coffee pot was not working, there was a fireplace but no way to use it. However the hotel overall had great amenities. Although I didnt golf this time, the course is beautiful, there are 3 restaurants and a great spa. We had massages and our masseuses Christa and Jennifer were amazing. We will definitely go back.

The area is very nice. But the property is dated, and it is beginning to show. The staff are polite but not suited to run this property as they are just part timers mostly and are not trained to handle a full scale resort property. They are looking for staff like everyone else, but sadly not for career staff, just cheap help wanted staff. At this property, you must have top notch people and the prices they are asking for ells me that they think they have a world class property here.
