Las Vegas is fast becoming one of the most prominent golf locations in the country. With the unique blend of lush greens and serene desert landscapes, golf courses in Las Vegas have their own distinctive charm and atmosphere. Golf enthusiasts should be delighted to know that there are many outstanding Las Vegas Golf Course communities located around these courses, and indeed, many have their own private country clubs granting exclusive access to their fairways.

Anthem Country Club

The master-planned community of Anthem is home to a private Hale Irwin-designed Championship golf course. Its rolling landscape has amazing views of the surrounding mountainside juxtaposed with the lights of the Strip. Standing as the hub of the numerous luxury home sites in the community, the country club has its own modern fitness center, clubhouse, pools, tennis and basketball courts, and even fine dining options.

Red Rock Country Club

This is one of the private Las Vegas Golf Course communities that contains not one, but two golf courses designed by Arnold Palmer, and has its own sports club, fitness center, restaurants and water attractions. Located within Summerlin, it offers custom estates and spectacular real estate that stands out even in Vegas.

Dragon Ridge

Rising above the Las Vegas Valley, Dragon Ridge truly brings itself above the rest with many features that can’t be found anywhere else. It was designed to blend its fairways and greens with the natural canyons and sloping hills that’s right below the McCullough Mountains. Sitting right beside the luxury community of MacDonald Highlands, golf aficionados need not be far from this unique resort.

Rio Secco

Beneath the Black Mountain Range lies Rio Secco, the Rees Jones’ designed golf course that’s currently the best public access course ranked by the Las Vegas PGA membership. Opening as one of the top ten new courses in 1997, it continues to stand out by offering different teeing grounds for golfers of all skill levels.

Southern Highlands

Southern Highlands connects its two sections, the Villages and the Estates, with a Robert Trent-designed private championship golf course along with 50 acres of parks, trails and lakes. Whether you choose to live in the median-priced homes in the Villages or in the custom manors of the Estates, you’ll enjoy scenic views of the mountainside and the city itself.

Golf is a sport unlike any other, and where better to enjoy this relaxed yet competitive game than in one of many Las Vegas golf course communities.
