Rhodes Ranch Homes for Sale
Rhodes Ranch is a guard-gated master-planned community in southwest Las Vegas surrounding a semi-private golf course, offering single-family homes from the mid $300,000s to over $3 million with a community recreation center, pools, and convenient access to the 215 beltway and South Strip.
Rhodes Ranch is one of the most accessibly priced 24-hour guard-gated golf communities anywhere in the Las Vegas Valley. The 1,330-acre master plan was developed by Jim Rhodes (Rhodes Companies), who acquired 950 acres from the Bureau of Land Management in March 1996 and assembled adjacent parcels into a contiguous southwest valley site. Construction of the Ted Robinson Sr.-designed 18-hole, par-71, 6,582-yard championship golf course began that same year, and the course opened to the public on November 6, 1997. Robinson called the par-3 collection at Rhodes Ranch the finest he ever designed. Rhodes Companies filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009 during the broader Las Vegas housing collapse, and Century Communities (the same builder that later took over Skye Canyon) acquired the remaining lots and oversaw the build-out through completion. Today Rhodes Ranch has dual 24-hour staffed guard gates (the main gate off Durango Drive and the West Gate off Fort Apache, opened in 2014), a 35,000-square-foot Recreation Center, and the resident-only Fun Zone Water Park with a lagoon pool, lap pool, three spas, a rope bridge, and 16 water slides.
About Rhodes Ranch
Rhodes Ranch is a guard-gated master-planned community in southwest Las Vegas, developed around the Rhodes Ranch Golf Club course. The community is located near the intersection of Rhodes Ranch Parkway and Rainbow Boulevard, with convenient access to the 215 beltway. Development began in the late 1990s and continued through the 2000s, creating a well-established residential neighborhood with guard-gated security, a community recreation center, and the semi-private golf course as its centerpiece.
Homes and Pricing
Homes in Rhodes Ranch range from approximately $375,000 to $3,100,000. The community offers a variety of single-family home styles, from standard production homes to larger custom-quality residences on golf course lots. Most homes were built between the late 1990s and late 2000s. Floor plans range from approximately 1,500 square feet to over 5,000 square feet, with single-story and two-story options available. Golf course frontage lots and homes in premium sections command higher prices, while interior-lot homes in standard sections offer the entry-level price points.
Amenities and Lifestyle
The Rhodes Ranch community recreation center provides residents with swimming pools, a fitness area, tennis courts, and gathering spaces. Access to the recreation center is included in the HOA membership. The Rhodes Ranch Golf Club is a semi-private course, meaning it is open to public play while also offering membership options for residents who want regular access. The guard-gated entries provide controlled access to the community. Walking paths and pocket parks are distributed throughout the master plan.
