In 1919, Arth Chaffin, a Lake Powell area pioneer, discovered Gold Creek Spring. Beautiful, cold, clear water bubbled up from a source deep in the base of Mount Hillers. "Uncle" Arth kept this discovery in the back of his mind until Highway 276 to Bullfrog Marina was constructed, making access to Gold Creek possible. In the late 1960's, Uncle Arth built the first road into Gold Creek and started developing the spring. His intent was to develop water rights to the spring and use the water for his Gold Creek home and garden. He was leasing part of a section of Utah State Schools property.

In 1975, Uncle Arth contacted Mike Barrett, a Civil Engineer, to see if Barrett would be interested in pursuing the development of the water. Gold Creek Development Corporation was formed to develop ("prove up") on the water rights and to negotiate a Lease/Purchase Agreement with State of Utah for 100 acres of land.

Today, you can own a piece of this history and enjoy the magnificent overlook of Glen Canyon Recreation Area.
