The Ridges could well be considered the crown jewel of luxury real estate in Summerlin. This exclusive guard-gated community features some of the most dramatic and stunning natural topography in Southern Nevada and offers unparalleled views of the entire Las Vegas valley. It was just a few years ago that Forbes magazine named The Ridges in Summerlin as one of the three most exclusive gated communities in the entire country. Since then, The Ridges has continued to distinguish itself by adding to the already spectacular selection of amenities. Case in point; Club Ridges, a private fitness facility for the exclusive use of Ridges’ residents. The new clubhouse measures nearly 9,000 square feet and includes a 2,400 square-foot fitness room as well as a 1,300 square-foot aerobic area. Exterior amenities include five lighted tennis courts, including one championship court, a family style resort pool and a year-round, 82-degree, heated lap pool.

For anyone that has spent time vacationing on the Las Vegas Strip over the past decade, Danny Gans is a familiar name. Danny began his Las Vegas Headliner career at The Stratosphere almost 10 years ago. Virtually overnight fame and well-deserved fortune carried him on to The Rio Hotel and then The Mirage, his current home. An accomplished athlete, Danny nonetheless played his very first round of golf at age forty-two. Despite a tough first day on the course, it was love at first sight! Mr. Gans now shoots between 75 and 80 and is hooked for life! As generous as he is talented, Danny Gans paired-up with The First Tee Program of Southern Nevada in 2001 and developed the Danny Gans Junior Golf Academy. The mission of the Academy is to give Southern Nevada kids an opportunity to experience the thrill of golf, while also instilling the fundamental “life lessons” that good golf requires. Launched in 2002 at The Callaway Golf Center with just a handful of students, The Danny Gans Junior Golf Academy has rapidly expanded to six local courses while graduating over 2,000 students (age 6 to 17) to date! Here’s the part you just won’t believe, the entire program is underwritten by Danny Gans and all instruction is free! MS Las Vegas Real Estate salutes Danny Gans and The Danny Gans Junior Golf Academy. He’s a pillar of our community and a fantastic example for all of us!

One of the very best executive golf courses in Las Vegas is about to get even better. Eagle Crest can be found right in the heart of the Sun City Summerlin homes community in the northwest section of the Las Vegas Valley. Designed by Billy Casper and Greg Nash, you couldn’t ask for a better place to get in a quick 18 holes and still be appropriately challenged.

Consisting of six par 4’s and twelve par 3’s, Eagle Crest demands that you place the ball where it needs to be and that you read the greens with skill and care. The view of the entire Las Vegas Valley from the tee box on the eighteenth hole is truly breathtaking and your second shot to the green on 18 will surprise you as well.

What did we mean by saying that Eagle Crest is about to get even better? The course was closed on June 18th (2006) for major reconditioning and will re-open this September. All 18 greens are being completely re-done with Bermuda dwarf grass and every bunker is being re-designed and rebuilt as well. The course is now 12 years old and the improvements came at just the right time. At completion, you can expect Eagle Crest to be the premier executive-style golf course in Las Vegas.
