Desert Mountain, a golf community in Scottsdale, Ariz., has hiking, horseback riding in its private wilderness area and even glamping, where you can sleep in luxury tents, and chefs cook custom-made meals.

Also, more and more communities have options for residents with children, including kid’s clubs and summer camps.

Do the amenities for children mean that golf communities are attracting a younger demographic?

Retirees have and continue to be the biggest golf home buyers, but there are definitely younger families with children moving in. They’re drawn to them because they offer entertainment for the whole family and are well maintained. The safety of these communities is also a big plus.

Are the golf properties your company sells used mostly as primary residences or vacation homes?

They’re a mix of both, and some destinations see both kinds of buyers. Dubai is an example. Summer temperatures there are over 100 degrees, and you have vacation-home buyers who are only there during the winter. At the same time, Dubai’s residents like the idea of living in a golf home because it offers a green landscape in a desert environment. In Florida, the golf homes we sell tend to be used as primary homes.

What are the most popular destinations for golf homes today, and why?

From our experience, I can say that Miami and Palm Beach have always been hot markets. Spain and Portugal continue to be attractive, especially to buyers from the United Kingdom who like that both countries have lots of sunshine.
