Homes run from about $300,000 for well-maintained two-bedroom villas to $700,000-plus for larger estate-style homes on premium lots with golf course or mountain views.

Residents enjoy preferred tee times and rates, with some of the valley's best mountain views from the fairways. If golf frontage is the goal, each course corridor prices differently, so tour all three.
HOA fees run $150 to $300 per month, competitive for the amenity load: four recreation centers, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness facilities, 100-plus chartered clubs, and common-area maintenance. Golf is pay-to-play with resident preferences rather than bundled. Add Nevada's no-state-income-tax math and the 3 percent primary-residence property-tax cap, and total retirement carrying costs here compare favorably nationally.
