Sun City Summerlin is a 55+ active adult housing community in the City of Las Vegas, developed by the trusted homebuilder Del Webb Corporation from 1989 to 1999. One of the country’s premier adult communities, it was the first of its kind in Las Vegas, and has paved the way for other Sun Cities in the Valley.

Sun City Summerlin is a convenient 30-minute drive from the glamorous redeveloped downtown Las Vegas and the famed Las Vegas Strip. But you don’t have to go anywhere to enjoy it. Sitting quietly in your backyard, removed from the hustle and bustle, you’ll treasure breathtaking views of not only the surrounding mountains, but also the unmistakable glittering light show of the Las Vegas Strip.

Sun City Summerlin is on the western edge of the upscale Summerlin master-planned community of Las Vegas. This coveted neighborhood flaunts tree-lined avenues, extraordinary shopping, choice eateries and award-winning resorts, casinos and spas.

Golfer’s Paradise for All Skill Levels

Sun City Summerlin is home to three impressive 18-hole golfing options. Choose from the Highland Falls Golf Club with challenging elevation changes and strategic bunkers; the championship-level executive Eagle Crest Golf Course, carved out of a mountain and boasting some of the highest elevations in the city; or the pine tree adorned Palm Valley Golf Course, Golf Summerlin’s longest and most challenging offering.

If the neighborhood golf opportunities aren’t enough, you only need to go a few blocks. The desert-style Durango Hills Golf Club, a favorite executive length course, features undulating greens and mountain views. The PGA Tour’s Tournament Players Club (TPC) Summerlin, designed by Bobby Weed, stretches over 4 miles of manicured green fairways. And just on the other side of the street from TPC Summerlin is the picturesque and contemporary Angel Park Golf Club.

Natural Outdoor Treasures

Nature enthusiasts are going to love the neighboring Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area. You can also drive 50 miles north to hit Nevada’s first state park, The Valley of Fire State Park. If boating, fishing, swimming or water skiing is more your speed, Lake Mead National Recreation Area is just an hour east. And if snow skiing or sledding is what you want, Mount Charleston and Lee Canyon are right in your neck of the woods.

When it’s time to get out of town, you can just jump on one of the convenient interstate highways, or head to the McCarran International Airport in a half hour or less.
