KEY TAKEAWAYS
What Should You Know About The Summit Club at a Glance?
The Summit Club pairs just 146 invitation-only homesites on 555 acres in Summerlin with a Tom Fazio championship course and Discovery Land Company resort amenities — estates priced $5M–$30M+ according to Las Vegas REALTORS and community plan records, against Red Rock Canyon views and the Summerlin master plan per Howard Hughes Corporation. Five takeaways capture the essential picture.
- Invitation-only: membership precedes purchase — begin the club conversation before the listing search; our team navigates the process discreetly.
- Ultra-low density: 146 homesites on 555 acres means 3.8 acres per homesite on average — privacy and space no production community can replicate.
- Discovery Land Company pedigree: same developer behind Yellowstone Club, Kukio, and Baker's Bay — the brand carries long-term value support.
- Best for: ultra-high-net-worth owners, golfers, privacy-first California relocators, and trophy-asset buyers with a 10+ year horizon.
- Tax advantage: zero Nevada state income tax versus California's 13.3% top rate — a six-figure annual saving at this income profile.

SAFETY & CRIME
Is The Summit Club Safe?
Yes — by design and execution. The Summit Club pairs Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department coverage with a 24/7 staffed gate, security patrols, perimeter walls, and invitation-only membership that controls who even knows the location. Inside the gates, the community operates at a security and privacy level that rivals any residential address in the world.
- Staffed entry gate since 2017Discovery Land Company security standard
- Membership controls community accessNo casual visitors or public entry
- Las Vegas Metro Police jurisdictionFull Metro coverage of the surrounding area
- Perimeter walls + patrol securityEvery vehicle and visitor verified at entry
What Buyers Should Know
The Summit Club's security posture goes beyond a staffed gate. Invitation-only membership means the community controls who can own a home here, not just who drives through. Residents, approved guests, and verified vendors are the only people inside — a level of access control no other community in the Las Vegas Valley achieves.
The surrounding Summerlin ZIP-89135 corridor is one of the safest in the Las Vegas Valley: established, high-income, owner-occupied neighborhoods where incidents run to minor suburban property matters per FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data. Buyers can verify area safety metrics through FBI UCR-based tools before engaging the membership process.
For ultra-luxury buyers, the practical security picture here — invitation-only membership, staffed gate, patrols, perimeter walls, and a 146-homesite community where everyone knows everyone — is the highest in the Las Vegas market, surpassing even the valley's other top guard-gated addresses.

What's It Like Living in The Summit Club, Las Vegas?
Living at The Summit Club means morning rounds on a Tom Fazio fairway, a resort pool serviced by Discovery Land Company staff, and Red Rock Canyon ten minutes from your gate. Inside Summerlin per Howard Hughes Corporation, residents enjoy ultra-private enclave living with Downtown Summerlin shops and dining five minutes away.
What is The Summit Club known for?
The Summit Club is known for being Las Vegas's most exclusive private residential community — 146 custom estates on 555 acres with a Tom Fazio championship course, Discovery Land Company resort amenities, and invitation-only membership. It is the apex of the Las Vegas luxury market by price, privacy, and prestige.
Who should live at The Summit Club?
Ultra-high-net-worth buyers who want world-class private golf, complete privacy, and resort amenities as a daily standard — typically founders, executives, athletes, entertainers, and capital allocators whose income is portable and whose lifestyle demands the best. California relocators looking to maximize the Nevada tax advantage at the highest income tier find The Summit Club the most compelling single address.
What is daily life like?
Morning rounds on the Tom Fazio course, lunch at the full-service clubhouse restaurant, afternoons at the resort pool or fitness center, and evenings twenty minutes from the Strip's world-class dining, entertainment, and nightlife — all behind a 24/7 staffed gate with zero through-traffic and complete privacy.
Where Is The Summit Club
The Summit Club sits on the western rim of Summerlin in ZIP code 89135 along the Red Rock Canyon foothills — roughly 20 miles from the Strip and 5 miles from Downtown Summerlin's shops and dining. The community's 555 acres occupy one of the most dramatic natural settings in the Las Vegas Valley, with unobstructed views of Red Rock Canyon, the Spring Mountains, and the city.

LIVABILITY REPORT CARD
How Does The Summit Club Score?
The Summit Club earns perfect marks on privacy, exclusivity, and outdoor setting — and honest notes on the high carrying costs and invitation-only access that make it the right fit for a very specific buyer. Below is our category-by-category report card, the same six factors our agents walk through with every qualified buyer before requesting a tour.
Grade A+: Privacy & Security
24/7 staffed gate, security patrols, perimeter walls, and invitation-only membership — the most private residential address in Las Vegas.
Grade A: Schools
John W. Bonner ES (9/10) and Sig Rogich MS (10/10) per GreatSchools, plus Palo Verde HS (8/10); The Meadows School and Bishop Gorman nearby for private options.
Grade B: Cost of Living
$5M–$30M+ entry plus $2,000–$5,000+/mo HOA plus membership dues — the highest absolute carrying cost in the Las Vegas Valley, offset by zero Nevada state income tax.
Grade A+: Amenities
Tom Fazio golf, resort pool and cabana village, fine dining, fitness and wellness, tennis, children's center, and Discovery Land Company concierge — all private.
Grade A+: Outdoor Access
Red Rock Canyon NCA ten minutes west, Fox Hill Park five minutes, and the Summerlin trail network immediately accessible — among the best outdoor settings of any community in the West.
Grade A-: Commute
Twenty minutes to the Strip, five to Downtown Summerlin, thirty to the airport — remote feel with surprisingly strong access once through the gate.

Quick Answer
Is The Summit Club a good place to live?
Yes — if total privacy, world-class golf, and Discovery Land Company's resort lifestyle standard are what you're buying. The Summit Club pairs 146 custom estates on 555 canyon-rim acres with a Tom Fazio championship course, invitation-only membership, and the most private address in Las Vegas. The trade-offs are entry price ($5M–$30M+), membership dues on top of $2,000–$5,000+/mo HOA, and an invitation-only process that shapes the timeline. For the buyer it suits, no community in the Las Vegas Valley competes.

Who Lives in The Summit Club?
According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Las Vegas city — which contains The Summit Club — the parent city holds 656,274 residents with a median household income of $66,820. Inside the gates, the profile is entirely different: community records show roughly 300 residents across 120 households, a median age of 55, and average household income above $1,000,000.
The Census does not tabulate The Summit Club as its own place, so citywide figures provide the broad statistical backdrop — presented honestly as exactly that. Within the gates, our market data shows founders, C-suite executives, athletes, entertainers, and top-tier capital allocators. California relocators are heavily represented: the tax math at this income level is too compelling to ignore.

POPULATION & GROWTH
How Fast Is The Summit Club Area Growing?
The Summit Club is deliberately finished and low-density by design — 146 homesites that will never grow. Its parent community, Summerlin, continues to expand its western villages under the Howard Hughes Corporation master plan, and Las Vegas city has added roughly 72,000 residents since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, driving continued demand for the limited ultra-luxury supply The Summit Club represents.
Las Vegas citywide population trajectory, 2010–2030 (projected)
Inside the gates, growth is permanently capped: 146 homesites is the plan, and Discovery Land Company has not and will not add more on these 555 acres. The valley around it keeps compounding — more residents, more demand, and no new supply at this quality tier anywhere in the market. That is the structural scarcity case for ownership at The Summit Club.

LIVABILITY SCORES
How Does The Summit Club Score for Livability?
The Summit Club scores at or near the top on privacy, amenities, and outdoor setting — and earns an honest mid-grade on cost of living, because $5M–$30M+ entry plus $2,000–$5,000+/mo HOA plus membership dues is an exceptional financial commitment by any measure.

WHY THE SUMMIT CLUB
Why Does The Summit Club Stand Apart From Its Peers?
From the invitation-only membership to the Tom Fazio championship course, The Summit Club occupies a tier no other Las Vegas community reaches. The five advantages below are each tied to a verifiable source — the Nevada Revised Statutes, Howard Hughes Corporation, FBI crime data, Census figures, and the community plan record — so you can check every claim.
- Community plan record
Discovery Land Company's global brand
The same firm behind Yellowstone Club, Kukio, and Baker's Bay created The Summit Club — the most credentialed private residential developer in the world. That pedigree supports pricing and long-term value in ways no local developer replicates.
- Community plan record
Tom Fazio championship golf (private)
An 18-hole Fazio course reserved exclusively for members — no tee-time competition, no public-access crowds, no compromise on pace or conditions. Fazio is to golf course architecture what Michelin stars are to dining.
- Community plan record
146-homesite permanent scarcity
555 acres and 146 homesites — a ratio that produces the most generous lot sizes of any Las Vegas luxury community. Supply is permanently capped; no additional homesites will ever be released.
- Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471
Nevada tax advantage at scale
Zero state income tax versus California's 13.3% — a six-figure or seven-figure annual saving at The Summit Club buyer income profile, tax-capped property ownership under NRS 361.471.
- Bureau of Land Management
Red Rock Canyon setting
The community's western position gives estates direct views of Red Rock Canyon's sandstone formations and the Spring Mountains — a natural backdrop no other Las Vegas community commands at this scale.
WHY BUY IN THE SUMMIT CLUB
What Are the Top 10 Reasons to Buy a Home at The Summit Club?
The Summit Club's case rests on permanent scarcity and Discovery Land Company's global reputation: 146 homesites that will never grow, a Tom Fazio private course, property taxes capped at 3% annual growth under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471, and zero Nevada state income tax. Ten sourced reasons follow.
Discovery Land Company pedigree
The developer behind Yellowstone Club, Kukio, and Baker's Bay — the most respected name in ultra-exclusive private residential communities globally.

Tom Fazio championship golf — private
An 18-hole Fazio course reserved entirely for members and their guests. No public access, no crowds, no tee-time booking competition.
Community plan record

Nevada Department of Taxation
3% property-tax cap
Annual increases on a primary residence are capped by statute — predictable long-run carrying cost on a $5M–$30M+ asset.
NRS 361.471
146-homesite permanent cap
555 acres, 146 homesites — supply permanently fixed by the community footprint. No developer can add more.
Community plan record
Red Rock Canyon views from your estate
Unobstructed views of Red Rock's sandstone formations and the Spring Mountains — a natural backdrop no other Las Vegas community provides at this scale.
Bureau of Land Management
Resort amenities as a daily standard
Fine dining, resort pool and cabana village, fitness and wellness center, tennis, children's center, and concierge — the Discovery Land hospitality model at home.

Quick Answer
What are HOA fees at The Summit Club?
HOA fees at The Summit Club run approximately $2,000 to $5,000-plus per month, covering security, common-area maintenance, and community infrastructure. Club membership dues are separate and significantly higher, on top of invitation-only initiation fees. Model the full annual carrying cost — including Nevada's comparatively modest property taxes under the 3% primary-residence cap per NRS 361.471 — before engaging in the membership and purchase process.
Should I Move to The Summit Club?
High-net-worth households from Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and New York are finding that world-class private golf — out of reach in coastal markets — is attainable twenty minutes from the Strip. California's 13.3% top income-tax rate per the California Franchise Tax Board versus Nevada's zero makes the move financially decisive at this income level.
Why Ultra-Wealthy Buyers Are Choosing The Summit Club
The tax math is transformative at this income level: California's top marginal state income tax is 13.3% — Nevada's is zero. A household earning $5 million annually saves roughly $665,000 per year in state income taxes alone by establishing Nevada residency. The Summit Club adds what no coastal community can offer at any price: 146 homesites on 555 desert acres with a Tom Fazio championship course, Discovery Land Company resort amenities, and complete privacy — against the backdrop of Red Rock Canyon's sandstone formations and unobstructed views of the Spring Mountains.
At a $10 million budget, Bel Air buyers are competing with dozens of bidders for a dated modern on a fractional lot. That same budget at The Summit Club secures a custom estate on a Fazio fairway or canyon rim lot — with invitation-only membership, resort dining, and 555 acres of private desert — twenty minutes from the Strip, thirty from the airport.
According to Las Vegas REALTORS, the broader ZIP-89135 Summerlin market reflects one of the strongest luxury submarkets in the Las Vegas Valley. Per the Clark County Assessor, the effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value — far below California coastal norms. Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471 caps annual tax increases on a primary residence at 3%. The Bureau of Land Management manages the roughly 195,819-acre Red Rock Canyon conservation area ten minutes from the community gate.
The Summit Club is not tied to a single employer — its residents are the founders, executives, and capital allocators whose income is portable by design. The Las Vegas metropolitan economy adds a hospitality and gaming complex that draws 42 million visitors annually, a diversified professional services sector along the Summerlin corridor, and one of the most favorable business-formation environments in the country. The community sits twenty minutes from the Strip and thirty from the airport — close to everything, private from all of it.
Cost of Living Snapshot — The Summit Club vs. Los Angeles
At the Summit Club buyer profile, the relevant comparison is not grocery prices — it is the structural cost advantage of Nevada residency on a high-income, high-net-worth household: no state income tax, no estate tax, no personal property tax on vehicles, and property-tax increases capped at 3% per year for primary residences. Below that, the private-club lifestyle in Las Vegas runs at a fraction of comparable Malibu or Montecito estate costs.
| Metric | The Summit Club, NV | Los Angeles, CA |
|---|---|---|
| State Income Tax | None | Up to 13.3% |
| Estate Tax | None | None (but CA AGI rules complicate trusts) |
| Entry Estate Price | From $5M (invitation-only) | $10M+ (Bel Air / Malibu / Montecito gated) |
| Effective Property Tax Rate | ~0.5%–0.7% | ~1.0%+ |
| Airport Commute | ~30 min (Harry Reid) | 45–90+ min (LAX) |

The Summit Club Rental Market — Rent vs. Own
Rental opportunities inside The Summit Club do not meaningfully exist — 98% of households own per community records, and the invitation-only membership structure makes short- or long-term leasing structurally impractical. There is no vacation-rental underwriting thesis here. The Summit Club is an ownership community, full stop. Buyers who want to experience Summerlin's luxury market before committing can explore the broader ZIP-89135 corridor while pursuing membership.

Start Your Summit Club ConversationRELOCATION TIMELINE
How to Relocate to The Summit Club in 8 Steps
From first inquiry to keys-in-hand, here is the 8–12 week timeline most Summit Club buyers follow — with two Nevada statutory deadlines that run independently: a driver's license within 30 days of residency and vehicle registration within 60, per the Nevada DMV. Miss them and penalties stack — plan ahead.
Begin the membership conversation
Ownership at The Summit Club requires membership. The invitation-only process begins with a referral or qualified introduction. Our team advises on positioning and can make appropriate introductions for qualified buyers — this step precedes all others.
Identify your position preference
Ridge, Fairway, Canyon, Clubhouse-Adjacent, Desert Contemporary, or Entry Estate — each position has different pricing, lot sizes, and lifestyle implications. Visit personally before committing to a site orientation.
Arrange private banking or cash structure
At $5M–$30M+, financing goes private banking or all-cash. If you are financing, activate your private banking relationship before engaging the market. Lender pre-approval timelines are measured in weeks at this tier, not days.
Retain a Summit Club-experienced agent
With 146 homesites and single-digit annual turnover, market knowledge here is relationship-based. Work with an agent who moves in this tier and has direct contacts inside the community. Call (702) 637-1759 to start the conversation.
Tour homesites or existing estates
All showings require gate clearance and agent representation. We coordinate access in advance; expect 24–48 hours to arrange a first tour inside the community. Walk candidate sites at different times of day for sun orientation and view assessment.
Submit an offer with builder or purchase structure
Homesite purchases include builder selection and architectural approval; estate resales go through standard Nevada purchase contract. Membership approval runs in parallel — start that process at or before offer acceptance.
Inspection, HOA docs & escrow
Request the full HOA package: dues, reserve study, assessment history, CC&Rs, and architectural guidelines. Nevada closes through escrow companies; expect 45–60 days for financed purchases and 14–21 for cash.
Close, establish Nevada residency, and register
Transfer utilities (NV Energy, Southwest Gas), register gate transponders with the association, and handle Nevada DMV — license within 30 days, vehicle registration within 60. Our team provides a move-in coordination checklist.
ECONOMY & JOBS
What Drives The Summit Club Economy?
The Summit Club is not tied to any employer — residents are founders, executives, athletes, and capital allocators whose income is portable by design. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Las Vegas metro employment remains strong, and community records put average household income above $1,000,000 — roughly 13 times the Clark County median.

What Will The Summit Club Cost You Each Month?

BUY VS RENT
Should you buy or rent at The Summit Club?
Rental opportunities do not exist here — 98% of households own, and invitation-only membership makes any rental structurally impractical. The only real comparison is Nevada ownership vs. California ownership at this income level.

The Nevada residency case
At The Summit Club buyer income profile, Nevada residency pays for the estate's carrying cost in state income tax savings alone. A household earning $7.5 million annually saves approximately $1 million per year in California state income taxes by establishing Nevada residency — enough to service the HOA and membership dues for years. This is why The Summit Club buyer profile is heavily California-weighted.
Model assumptions: California top marginal rate 13.3% per Franchise Tax Board; Nevada rate 0%; property tax 0.6% per Clark County Assessor; 3% annual cap per NRS 361.471.

COMMUTE & TRANSPORTATION
How Easy Is Getting Around From The Summit Club?
The Summit Club's Summerlin location delivers a compelling paradox: complete isolation inside the gate and fast access everywhere outside it. Summerlin Parkway and West Charleston Boulevard feed every direction, and mean Las Vegas commutes run about 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data — residents here beat that benchmark to every Summerlin destination.

Quick Answer
How long does it take to close on a home at The Summit Club?
Most Summit Club closings run 45–60 days financed through private banking or 14–21 days all-cash. Membership approval runs in parallel with escrow — initiate it at offer acceptance. Nevada closes through escrow companies; the title chain is typically clean, but budget time for architectural-review sign-off if the transaction involves pending construction.
Quick Answer
What down payment do you need to buy at The Summit Club?
Most Summit Club transactions are all-cash or financed through private banking relationships. At $5M–$30M+, conventional conforming or jumbo products rarely match the structure these purchases require. Private banks lend against a buyer's broader portfolio, and terms are individually negotiated. If you are financing, establish the relationship with your private banker before approaching the market — not after. Typical private-banking structures run 20–30% down with asset management requirements.
The Summit Club FAQ — 18 Answers
What Do The Summit Club Buyers Most Frequently Ask?
Most AskedWhat is the price range for homes at The Summit Club?
Finished homes at The Summit Club run from about $5 million to over $30 million, while vacant homesites start around $3 million. Lot sizes range from one-third of an acre to over two acres across 146 homesites. Membership precedes purchase — the community is invitation-only, so start the club conversation before the listing search.
Is The Summit Club open to the public?
No. The Summit Club is invitation-only, developed by Discovery Land Company, with initiation fees among the highest of any private club in the country. There is no public access to the community, course, or clubhouse. Serious buyers typically arrive through referral and representation; our team can advise qualified candidates on how to approach the membership process discreetly.
Who designed The Summit Club golf course?
Tom Fazio, widely regarded as one of America's premier golf course architects, designed The Summit Club's 18-hole championship course. It plays through natural desert terrain with dramatic elevation changes and unobstructed views of Red Rock Canyon, the Spring Mountains, and the Las Vegas Strip. Consistent with the club's private structure, the course is reserved for members and their guests.
How many homes are at The Summit Club?
Just 146 homesites occupy The Summit Club's 555 acres, one of the smallest and most exclusive lot counts of any luxury community in Las Vegas. That ultra-low density means maximum privacy and space between estates. It also means inventory is structurally scarce: opportunities surface rarely and quietly, so positioned buyers with representation tend to hear about them first.
What amenities does The Summit Club offer?
The Summit Club's clubhouse complex includes a full-service fine-dining restaurant, a resort-style pool with cabana village, a fitness and wellness center, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a children's activity center, and personalized concierge services. It is the Discovery Land Company hospitality model — the same firm behind Yellowstone Club and Kukio — applied to Las Vegas. Amenity access follows membership.
What ZIP code is The Summit Club in?
The Summit Club is in ZIP code 89135, inside Summerlin on the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley. Downtown Summerlin shops and dining sit about five minutes away, Red Rock Canyon ten, the Strip twenty, and Harry Reid Airport roughly thirty via I-215. Home prices run $5 million to $30 million-plus, making this Summerlin's most exclusive address by a wide margin.
Who developed The Summit Club?
Discovery Land Company developed The Summit Club, the firm behind the world's most exclusive private residential communities, including Yellowstone Club in Montana, Kukio in Hawaii, and Baker's Bay in the Bahamas. Launched in 2017 on 555 acres within Summerlin, The Summit Club brings that service and design standard to Las Vegas. The developer pedigree is central to the community's long-term value thesis.
What are HOA fees at The Summit Club?
HOA fees at The Summit Club run approximately $2,000 to $5,000-plus per month, covering security, common-area maintenance, and community infrastructure. Club membership dues are separate and significantly higher, on top of invitation-only initiation fees. Model the full annual carrying cost — including Nevada's comparatively modest property taxes under the 3% primary-residence cap — before engaging in the process.
How does the guard gate entry process work?
Entry is tightly controlled: residents use transponders or access codes, guests must be called in or pre-approved by the homeowner, and vendors follow the community's access policy. The gate is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with security and privacy standards that rival any residential community in the world. Expect verification on every unscheduled arrival.
Can non-residents access The Summit Club for viewings?
Access is possible but tightly managed. Showings require a licensed agent coordinating entry with the guard gate in advance, and the community's invitation-only membership structure shapes who tours. Nevada Real Estate Group arranges gate access for qualified buyers and can frame the membership pathway first. Call (702) 637-1759 to discuss positioning before requesting a tour.
What security features does The Summit Club have beyond the guard gate?
The Summit Club operates a 24-hour staffed gate with controlled vehicle access, security patrols, and perimeter walls, and its overall privacy posture rivals any residential community in the world. Like most guard-gated enclaves, expect surveillance at entry points and coordinated emergency response. Specific protocols are shared with members and owners rather than published.
Are there custom home lot opportunities at The Summit Club?
Yes, custom construction is the core model at The Summit Club. Homesites from one-third of an acre to over two acres start around $3 million, with homes built by approved builders including Shapiro & Sher and Sun West Custom Homes in a desert-contemporary palette of stone, glass, and steel. We help qualified buyers evaluate available sites and builder fit.
What is the resale value trend for ultra-luxury homes at The Summit Club?
Ultra-luxury property in private communities like The Summit Club has historically outperformed the broader market in both downturn resilience and growth-cycle appreciation. With only 146 homesites, invitation-only membership, and Discovery Land Company's brand behind it, supply is permanently constrained, creating structural price support few communities match. Opportunities here reward prepared, represented buyers more than perfectly timed ones.
How does Nevada's tax environment compare to California for Summit Club buyers?
Nevada has no state income tax — versus California's top rate of 13.3% per the California Franchise Tax Board. A household earning $2 million annually saves roughly $266,000 per year in state income taxes alone by establishing Nevada residency. Pair that with a property-tax annual increase cap of 3% on a primary residence under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471, and the carrying-cost advantage over a comparable California estate is substantial.
What should I know before buying at The Summit Club?
Four things move real money here. First, membership: buying a home requires club membership, so start the invitation process before the listing search. Second, builder approval: construction must use approved builders and conform to architectural standards. Third, financing: $5M–$30M+ purchases almost always go private bank or all-cash. Fourth, representation: with 146 homes and rare turnover, you need an agent who moves in this tier. Call (702) 637-1759 and we will navigate the process.
What down payment do you need to buy at The Summit Club?
Most Summit Club transactions are all-cash or financed through private banking relationships. At $5M–$30M+, conventional conforming or jumbo products rarely match the structure these purchases require. Private banks (typically wealth-management arms of major institutions) lend against a buyer's broader portfolio, and terms are individually negotiated. If you are financing, establish the relationship with your private banker before approaching the market — not after.
What does the Discovery Land Company membership model mean for ownership?
Discovery Land Company communities — Yellowstone Club, Kukio, Baker's Bay, and The Summit Club — tie real estate ownership to a private membership with invitation-only access, annual dues, and a service standard comparable to a Forbes Five-Star resort. At The Summit Club, HOA fees of $2,000–$5,000+/mo cover infrastructure; membership dues cover the hospitality stack: golf, dining, fitness, concierge, and children's programming. You are buying a lifestyle address, not just a lot.
How long does it take to close on a home at The Summit Club?
Most Summit Club closings run 45–60 days when financed through private banking and 14–21 days on all-cash. The membership approval process runs in parallel with escrow and should be initiated at or before offer acceptance. Nevada closes through escrow companies rather than attorneys; the title chain on a custom estate here is typically clean, but plan time for the association's architectural-review sign-off if the sale involves any pending construction.

Yes — The Summit Club is located within Summerlin in ZIP code 89135, on the community's western rim along the Red Rock Canyon foothills. It is developed by Discovery Land Company in partnership with the broader Summerlin master plan by Howard Hughes Corporation, though The Summit Club operates as its own fully private, invitation-only club.

By estate price range, The Summit Club at $5M–$30M+ is the most expensive residential community in Las Vegas. The Ridges (from $2M+) and MacDonald Highlands (from $800K+) are the closest peers, but no other community in the valley carries The Summit Club's floor.
How many homes are in The Summit Club?
Just 146 homesites across 555 acres, per the community plan record. That is the permanent cap — Discovery Land Company will not add more homesites within this footprint. Roughly 3.8 acres per homesite on average, one of the lowest densities of any luxury community in the Las Vegas Valley.
Can you drive through The Summit Club without an agent?
No. The Summit Club is invitation-only with 24/7 staffed gate access — no public driving, no walk-ins, and no public MLS open houses. Qualified buyers tour by appointment with a licensed agent who arranges gate clearance. Call (702) 637-1759 to start the conversation.
Is there golf at The Summit Club?
Yes — an 18-hole Tom Fazio championship course plays through the community's 555 acres with dramatic desert terrain, elevation changes, and views of Red Rock Canyon, the Spring Mountains, and the Las Vegas Strip. It is reserved entirely for members and their guests — no public access, no daily-fee rounds.

How does The Summit Club compare to Yellowstone Club?
Both are Discovery Land Company private residential clubs — Yellowstone Club in Montana focuses on skiing and mountain lifestyle from $5M+; The Summit Club focuses on desert golf and resort amenities from $5M+ in Las Vegas. They share the same developer DNA, hospitality model, and invitation-only structure; many high-net-worth buyers own at both.
Who built The Summit Club?
Discovery Land Company — the developer behind Yellowstone Club in Montana, Kukio in Hawaii, Baker's Bay in the Bahamas, and over 25 other ultra-exclusive private communities worldwide. In Las Vegas, Discovery Land Company partnered with the broader Summerlin master plan context established by Howard Hughes Corporation. Launched in 2017, The Summit Club is the newest and most exclusive address in Summerlin.

Where Does This Summit Club Data Come From?
Every statistic on this page is sourced from a primary dataset, the community plan record, or a government authority. Because The Summit Club trades in single digits annually, we present plan-record price ranges and the broader ZIP-89135 Summerlin context rather than enclave-level medians that a handful of sales cannot support.
