The Ridges is Summerlin's flagship luxury village and one of the most prestigious addresses in Las Vegas. It covers roughly 800 acres at the western edge of Summerlin, bordering the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. It's organized into more than a dozen individually gated enclaves inside the main guard gate. Most homes are desert contemporary, with views of Red Rock Canyon, the Spring Mountains, or the Strip. Joey Andron, a REALTOR® with Simply Vegas, helps buyers and sellers compare enclaves, dues, and values across The Ridges.
Entry-level options include luxury condominiums and townhomes, which have traded from around $1 million. Detached homes in established enclaves generally start around $2 million. Newer contemporary customs in the top enclaves run from about $4 million to more than $20 million.
The Ridges has a 24-hour staffed main gate, and most enclaves have their own secondary gate, which is why you'll often hear it described as "double-gated." A few enclaves add a third gate.
The Ridges combines three types of housing:
Fully custom enclaves on lots up to about an acre
Semi-custom builder neighborhoods from companies such as Christopher Homes and William Lyon Homes
Condominiums and townhomes for buyers who want the address without the estate
Remaining custom lots are limited. All construction goes through Summerlin and Ridges design review.
Residents have Club Ridges, a private residents' club with fitness, pool, and tennis that's included through the HOA. The community was built around Bear's Best, a Jack Nicklaus tribute course. That course closed in 2025 and is being redeveloped under new ownership into a private golf club. Golf membership is optional and separate from owning a home. Details on the new club's name, opening timeline, and membership are still developing, so contact Joey for the latest.
The Ridges set the standard for desert-modern design in Las Vegas. Christopher Homes, William Lyon Homes, and Toll Brothers (condos) have built here, along with many independent custom builders and architects.
It's a good fit if you want:
Budget for three layers of dues: the Summerlin master association, The Ridges association, and your enclave's fees.
The Ridges isn't one neighborhood. It's more than a dozen gated enclaves, and each has its own price tier, view, and dues, so choosing the right enclave matters as much as choosing the house. Buyers often miss that dues come in three layers: Summerlin, The Ridges, and the enclave. Right now, I'd also watch the golf course redevelopment closely, because what gets built along those fairways will affect the value of the homes that back onto them.
Yes. It has a 24-hour main gate, and most enclaves have a secondary gate.
The course closed in 2025 and is being redeveloped as a private golf club.
Dues come in layers: Summerlin master, The Ridges association, and enclave dues. Combined, they typically run about $500 to $1,300 per month, depending on the enclave.

Most addresses are zoned for Palo Verde High School, and some may be zoned for Durango High School. Zoning is by address, so verify with the Clark County School District.
