The Golden Grove Village Shopping Centre has a number of retailers, including Big W and Woolworths, as well as fast-food chains, specialty stores and banks. It is also the location of one of the few Baby Target store in Australia
A police station was long called for in the area, due to many accidents and fights at the Village Taverner, a pub bistro located adjacent to the Golden Grove Village Shopping Centre. A petition with 16,000 signatures made its way to SA Police who finally built the station. Its grand opening was on 18 December 2006.
The 288ha Cobbler Creek Recreation Park is accessible from nearby Gulfview Heights.
