What Is The Cliffs in Summerlin?

by Ryan Rose

The Cliffs is a guard-gated village in Summerlin, Las Vegas, spanning roughly 450 acres with around 1,700 homes across 12 distinct neighborhoods. Situated at the southernmost edge of Summerlin near Hualapai Way and Patrick Lane (89148), this community is named for the striking 600 foot ridgeline that forms its western backdrop.

What Makes The Cliffs Different from Other Summerlin Villages?

The Cliffs broke ground in June 2015 and quickly became one of the most sought after villages in Summerlin. Its desert contemporary architecture features earth tones, clean lines, and ceiling heights reaching 10 to 16 feet in select floor plans. The community offers both single story and two story homes priced from the mid $300,000s to over $1,300,000, with a median price in the upper $600,000s.

Ten nationally recognized builders developed neighborhoods here: Toll Brothers (Regency, Granite Heights, Ironwood), Tri Pointe Homes (Nova Ridge, Terra Luna), Taylor Morrison (Jade Ridge), Woodside Homes (Skystone), Lennar (Oluna), Richmond American (Onyx Point), and Pulte Homes (Vistara). New construction remains available in four neighborhoods, with Jade Ridge and Terra Luna offering the most inventory.

Is The Cliffs Guard Gated?

Yes, The Cliffs provides 24/7 guard gated security at its entrances, offering residents an added layer of privacy and peace of mind. The village sits within the broader Summerlin master planned community, which means homeowners also benefit from the Summerlin master association's amenities and trail system spanning over 200 miles. Ryan Rose often highlights this combination of security and connectivity as a defining feature of The Cliffs.

What Amenities Does The Cliffs Offer?

Oak Leaf Park anchors the community with pickleball courts, playgrounds, a climbing tower, and a demonstration garden. Residents enjoy proximity to Faiss Park and its aquatic center, the seasonal Cowabunga Canyon Waterpark, and over 10 golf courses including TPC Summerlin. Red Rock Canyon sits just a 10 to 15 minute drive west, and the Las Vegas Strip is only 15 to 20 minutes away.
