Each Summerlin village has its own distinctive style of architecture and design, evident in streetscapes, landscaping and village walls.

The Howard Hughes Corporation entered into an exclusive agreement with the PGA TOUR to bring the TPC to Summerlin. This private 18-hole championship golf course, which opened in 1991, is located at Summerlin's front door in The Hills South Village near Summerlin Parkway and Town Center Drive.

Situated in the rolling foothills of the Black Mountain Range in Henderson, Seven Hills overlooks one of the world's most dazzling skylines -- the famous Las Vegas Strip.

It is located in the southeast, in Henderson, south of Lake Mead Blvd and straight up Eastern Ave (south). Homes range from just under 1100 sq. ft. over 3,000.
Amenities include one very large community center, two completed golf courses and tennis courts. More facilities will be added as the community continues to grow. The golf courses are not owned by the homeowners, but green fees for residents are less than for the general public and residents have a priority on tee times. Construction of homes and facilities will continue for several years to come. Infrastructure is developing, especially along Eastern. This includes a recently completed Henderson St. Rose Dominican Hospital.
Note: Originally planned to include over 9,000 homes and 3 golf courses, the new development plan will be for 6,300 homes with 2 golf courses. The 75,000 sq. ft. community center is in place, and the Phase II 35,000 sq. ft. recreation center is currently under construction. The construction of the Phase III recreation center planned for 24,000 sq. ft. is expected to open in the Spring of 2006. The land freed up by this downsizing has been used to build a separate new smaller age restricted community, Solera, with it's own recreation amenities.
