The Summit
Discovery Land Company's ultra-exclusive Summerlin community, anchored by The Summit Club and a private Tom Fazio golf course.
About The Summit
The Summit is the product of a partnership between Discovery Land Company — the Scottsdale-based developer behind some of North America's most exclusive private club communities — and the Howard Hughes Corporation, which developed much of Summerlin. Positioned in the southwestern reaches of the master plan at the foot of the Spring Mountains, The Summit was conceived as a community where the club experience is inseparable from the residential one: membership in The Summit Club is the organizing principle of community life, and the Tom Fazio-designed course is the centerpiece. The development occupies terrain with direct sightlines to Red Rock Canyon and features homes designed to complement the desert landscape rather than impose on it. Discovery Land's playbook — refined at properties like Gozzer Ranch and Saguaro — emphasizes curated programming, exceptional facilities, and a membership that is intentionally kept small. In the Las Vegas context, The Summit represents a singular offering: international-caliber private-club amenities at the edge of one of the most dramatic desert landscapes in the American Southwest.
Golf at The Summit
The Summit Club is a private, members-only course designed by Tom Fazio — one of the most prolific and respected golf architects in the United States. Fazio routed the course through the community's desert terrain to take advantage of the natural arroyos and elevation, producing a layout with the intimacy of a private retreat and the visual drama of the surrounding landscape.
Living in The Summit
Life at The Summit revolves around the club in the fullest sense: the golf course, the clubhouse, the curated social calendar, and the shared sense of a community where everyone belongs because they have chosen to. Discovery Land's model is built on programming and hospitality as much as real estate, and The Summit reflects that — residents describe it as a place where the amenities feel genuinely personal rather than institutional. The surrounding Summerlin infrastructure — Downtown Summerlin, the 215 Beltway, Las Vegas-area airports — keeps The Summit connected to city life without diminishing the sense of retreat.
