Palo Verde is the third community built in Sun Lakes and holds the distinction of being its first 55+ active-adult neighborhood with a gated entrance. This intimate community of 1,073 single-family homes, built primarily in the 1980s and 1990s, offers a more private and secure setting than its predecessors. The neighborhood is designed around the Palo Verde Country Club, which features a challenging 18-hole executive golf course (par 62), a pro shop, and its own clubhouse with a fine-dining restaurant and lounge. The community is also home to the popular Sisk Park, a central hub for outdoor activities.
As part of the Cottonwood Palo Verde HOA (HOA#2), residents of Palo Verde enjoy a comprehensive reciprocal amenity package with the adjacent Cottonwood community. This arrangement gives them access to an extensive network of facilities, including multiple clubhouses, several restaurants and bars, a modern fitness center, numerous swimming pools, and a full suite of racquet sports like tennis and pickleball. This dual-community access, combined with its own private park and gated status, makes Palo Verde a highly desirable option for active adults.
