Curious about Roadhaven Resort? Reach out any time — we’re glad to help.
Roadhaven Resort is one of the East Valley’s most complete 55+ resorts — a guard-gated, park-model community in the foothills of the Superstition Mountains in Apache Junction, where residents own the land. With about 1,000 homes, its own golf course, two heated pools, and more than 30 clubs, Roadhaven delivers a full resort lifestyle behind a staffed gate. Add in the security of owning your lot (no lot rent), and it’s an easy, active, lock-and-leave way to enjoy Arizona — a favorite for snowbirds and full-timers alike.
What makes Roadhaven special
You own the land. Unlike most park-model and RV resorts where you lease the lot, at Roadhaven you own your home and your land — a real asset, and no lot rent.
Guard-gated with golf. A staffed gate for security, plus a scenic 9-hole golf course right in the community — not something you find in most park-model resorts.
An enormous social scene. Two pools, pickleball, tennis, a restaurant, a dance hall, and more than 30 clubs — there’s always something to do.

Where Roadhaven sits
Roadhaven is in Apache Junction, at the eastern edge of the Valley beneath the Superstition Mountains. You’re close to shopping, dining, and medical care, with quick access to US 60 and the far East Valley’s outdoor recreation — hiking, the Superstitions, and the lakes are all nearby. It’s a location that feels like a getaway while keeping the essentials close.
Age rules
Roadhaven is an age-restricted 55+ community. As with most 55+ communities, the exact rules on who can live there — and any limited allowance for younger residents — are set in the community’s governing documents. Rules like these can change, so before you buy we’ll confirm the current requirements for you.
Homes at Roadhaven
Roadhaven is a park-model community — compact, single-level homes, many with lovely Arizona rooms and added features — on lots you own. Because park models vary by age, size, and finishes, condition and price range widely, which is great for buyers looking for value. We’ll pull the details on any home you like and help you compare.
Buying a park model? A few things we check. Age and condition, the roof and cooling, how any Arizona room or add-on was permitted, and the title all deserve a close look. That’s what the inspection period is for — and it’s where having us on your side pays off.
A must-read for pet owners
Roadhaven, like most guard-gated park-model resorts, has strict pet rules. Rules can cover the type, size, and number of pets, and where they’re allowed within the community — and in many park-model resorts, pets can’t be walked on the streets at all. If a pet is part of your life, this is the single most important thing to confirm before you fall for a home here. We’ll verify the current pet rules for you so there are no surprises.
Amenities & daily life
Roadhaven’s amenity list is one of the most complete in any park-model resort:
- A scenic 9-hole golf course.
- Two heated swimming pools.
- Pickleball, tennis, bocce, and shuffleboard.
- A fitness center and a restaurant.
- A hall for dances, plus a church on site.
- More than 30 clubs, classes, and social groups.
Between the golf, the sports, and the clubs, it’s easy to stay as active and social as you’d like — a big reason residents come back year after year.
