Southern Highlands

Southern Highlands homes for sale offer the premier guard-gated golf community experience in Southwest Las Vegas, centered around the Southern Highlands Golf Club — a private 18-hole championship course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. that winds through the community’s elevated desert terrain with mountain views, water features, and dramatic elevation changes on every hole. The guard-gated portion of Southern Highlands (the Country Club section) competes directly with Red Rock Country Club in Summerlin and Spanish Trails in the southwest for the title of best golf community living in the Las Vegas Valley. Note: only the Southern Highlands Country Club section is guard-gated; the broader Southern Highlands community includes both gated and non-gated neighborhoods.

The Southern Highlands Golf Club serves as the community’s social and recreational epicenter, offering fine dining in a grand clubhouse with valley views, a casual grill room and bar, state-of-the-art fitness center with personal training, resort-style pool and spa, professional tennis and pickleball facilities, and a full calendar of member events including wine dinners, holiday galas, couples golf events, and charity tournaments. The Robert Trent Jones Jr. course is maintained to championship standards, with elevated tees and greens offering panoramic views of the Spring Mountains, Red Rock Canyon, and the Las Vegas Strip. Membership options include golf, social, and fitness tiers.

Homes within the guard-gated Country Club section of Southern Highlands range from spacious single-family residences starting in the high $700s to custom estate homes exceeding $5 million on premium golf course and mountain view lots. Architectural styles include Mediterranean with barrel tile roofs, contemporary desert modern with clean lines and flat rooflines, and transitional designs that blend both aesthetics. Properties commonly exceed 3,500 square feet with features including gourmet kitchens with premium appliances, wine cellars, home theaters, resort-style pools with water features, and outdoor entertainment areas designed for Las Vegas’s year-round outdoor climate. The broader Southern Highlands community (outside the Country Club gates) offers homes from the mid $400s.

Southern Highlands’ location along the southern 215 Beltway provides strategic access to the entire Las Vegas Valley: the Strip is approximately 15 minutes via I-15, Harry Reid International Airport is 15-20 minutes, Henderson’s retail and dining corridors are accessible via the 215 east loop, and Summerlin is connected via the 215 west loop. The community is served by CCSD schools and is near the growing retail and commercial development along St. Rose Parkway and Las Vegas Boulevard South.

Southern Highlands Country Club ranks among the top guard-gated communities in the valley. For a full comparison, see our Guard-Gated Communities Guide. Buyers comparing golf communities often evaluate Southern Highlands alongside Red Rock Country Club in Summerlin (Arnold Palmer design, dual courses), Spanish Trails (27-hole Jones II design), and Anthem Country Club in Henderson (Hale Irwin design with mountain views).
