Are you sensing that the holidays are upon us in Sun Lakes Arizona? I’ve noticed the lights going up and holiday decor starting to appear. And today we have a rare storm moving in bringing some rain. It’s actually starting to feel like Christmas. Don’t fret however – our 70 degrees days will be back in a few days.
You’ve heard the song Santa Claus is coming to town? Well Santa Claus came to Sun Lakes Arizona last year and rumor has it he will be back!
Sun Lakes Arizona
Sun Lakes Arizona is a Robson developed active adult community that borders Chandler Arizona and is comprised of five separate communities. With just under 10,000 homes this community is less than a half hour away from Sky Harbor and Mesa Gateway airports and minutes from the I-10, the 101 and the 202 making Sun Lakes the #1 choice in active adult communities!
What’s happening?
You don’t have to be here very long to see that this is an active community. This time of year people are putting up Christmas lights and holiday decor. Between golf, tennis and other activities there are parties, wine tastings and special clubhouse dinners you will not want to miss.
