The Ridges Summerlin Homes for Sale

Yes. The Ridges has 24-hour staffed guard-gated access at its main entries, with security on duty around the clock. Each sub-enclave inside The Ridges has its own additional access controls.

Bear's Best opened in 2001 as a public Jack Nicklaus design that recreated 18 of his favorite holes from courses he had designed around the world. New ownership is currently rebranding the course as Amara, with substantial work being done on the layout. Public reporting suggests the initiation fee will be approximately $250,000 for the first 30 members, with expectations that membership will sell out from inside The Ridges before the course opens to broader membership at higher rates. The transition meaningfully affects the lifestyle and resale value picture inside The Ridges. We track the most current public information and walk through it during any tour.

Both are guard-gated luxury communities in Summerlin (technically Red Rock CC is adjacent to Summerlin rather than part of it), and they sit close to each other geographically. The Ridges is the Howard Hughes Corporation's flagship Summerlin community with custom and semi-custom homes built around Bear's Best (rebranding to Amara). Red Rock Country Club is the Sunrise Colony Company-developed community with two Arnold Palmer-designed courses (the private Mountain and the public Arroyo). Architecture: The Ridges leans modern desert; Red Rock CC has more variety. Price point: The Ridges anchors higher, with custom homes typically pushing higher dollar amounts than Red Rock CC at comparable square footage. Both communities draw similar California buyer profiles. Buyers choose between them based on golf preference (one course versus two), architectural preference, and specific village feel.

The Summit Club is a separate ultra-private community inside The Ridges, with its own 24-hour staffed guard gate, its own private Tom Fazio-designed golf course, a 24-hour concierge service, and one of the most exclusive country club memberships in the western United States. The community has produced some of the most expensive residential sales in Las Vegas history, including a national-record condominium sale at $21M. Total membership is intentionally limited. Buyers interested in The Summit Club typically have separate luxury real estate conversations from buyers interested in the broader Ridges community, because the price tier and the membership structure are fundamentally different.

Multiple top Las Vegas custom and semi-custom builders have been active in The Ridges over the years. Christopher Homes (one of the most established Las Vegas luxury builders), Blue Heron (known for desert-contemporary modern architecture), Sun West Custom Homes, Toll Brothers, and others have built homes inside the gates. Architectural style varies meaningfully between sub-enclaves and between builders, though the overall master plan CC&Rs maintain the modern desert aesthetic across the community.

Active listings in The Ridges typically run from the low $2Ms for the smaller production semi-custom homes up past $15M for the larger custom estates on premium lots. The Summit Club homes (inside The Ridges, but with separate CC&Rs and amenities) typically run from approximately $7M up past $30M, with a national-record $21M condominium sale serving as one of the public benchmarks. The Ridges is one of the most consistently sought-after addresses in the metro and saved searches with new-listing alerts work well given the limited inventory turnover.
