Located along the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley just near the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is the community of Summerlin, Nevada.  Summerlin is a planned community originally purchased and run by Howard Hughes in the 1950s and named after his grandmother, Jean Amelia Summerlin.  Hughes obtained the land as the Hughes Tool Company which later became the Summa Corporation.  Much of the land was acquired for as little as twenty-five cents an acre as it was thought to have no use.  The Summa Corporation’s land holdings continued to grow over time and thus the two main areas, Summerlin North and South, were conceived.

Summerlin is actually contained within two locales, the City of Las Vegas and Clark County Nevada.  The area is generally divided into North, South, West and Centre.  There are many villages in each locale which contain a variety of gated, non-gated and age-restricted communities.  Summerlin is highlighted by wonderful pocket parks (there are over 100) and scenic rest stops that showcase the stunning natural beauty of the area.  Community members can be found biking and golfing or playing tennis, soccer and even chess in the park.  There are also many village community centers throughout the area to enjoy.  Golf is of course a big attraction for Summerlin - there are at least nine courses in the area.

The Red Rock Country Club Community is home to two of those spectacular courses - the private Mountain Course and the public Arroyo Course.  Both courses are Arnold Palmer designed signature courses which players of all levels can enjoy.  The natural beauty of the surroundings in this community are unmatched.  At the Red Rock Country Club you are sure to have a world-class golf experience.
