Where to Live: Summerlin, Nevada

Heading east on Lake Mead Blvd, you’ve got Eaglecrest golf course on your right, just on the other side of the neighborhood, while up ahead are Highland and Palm Valley Golf courses on your left, which are all part of Summerlin Golf.

This trifecta of challenging golf courses is welcome to all, whether you are a resident or just passing through. Summerlin golf was designed by hall of fame golf star, Billy Casper. Billy Casper was one of the most prolific PGA tournament winners, clocking in 71 professional wins.

I recommend Highland Falls if you really want those panoramic views of Las Vegas but if you're on a budget Eagle Crest has the lowest rate, making the rounds more accessible for any budget.

Got a sweet tooth head? Head over to Wicked Donuts on your left for the best retro, atomic age themed donut shop in town! Run by Food Network’s own pastry chef Robert Teddy, enjoy inventive new flavors like Cointreau filled Creme Brulle donuts or classics like Boston Cream done “wicked” style.

Turn right at North Rampart Boulevard.

Have you ever seen a bakery for dogs? On your left we will pass Three Dog Bakery. Three Dog Bakery became the world's first bakery for dogs with the mission to create treats made of real, simple ingredients for our fluffy friends and the owners that love them.

Give your friends the treat of pupcakes and fresh-baked cookies, with even grain-free options, perfect for those with even the most sensitive of stomachs.

Enjoy farm-fresh produce in the comfort of your own town at the Las Vegas Farmer’s Market, located on your left. The Las Vegas Farmers Market’s motto is “ Make it, Bake it, Grow it and Sew it” and you’ll find an abundance of productions that hold this philosophy strong.

Enjoy favorites like fresh baked bread and homemade hummus to gorgeous fruit and vegetables all year long.

If you stop by and like some heat to your food, visit Not your Grandma’s jam for some great blackberry habanero jam!

Continue straight down N Rampart Boulevard.

It wouldn't be Las Vegas if I didn’t mention a casino! I mean Las Vegas is the gambling capital of the U.S.

The Rampart Casino at the Resort Summerlin is on your right. Whether you want to place a bet, spend a day being pampered in the spa, eat a delicious meal or get married, this resort can help you out.

On the left side of the road we have Angel Park Golf Club. This place has been a Las Vegas golf icon for more than 30 years. Feel free to get married here too, with their professional full-service wedding planning. Or you can just go golfing. Or both. You decide.

After you pass the intersection at Suncoast, you will see Tivoli Village on your left.

Bring your credit cards and enjoy a curated day of luxury shopping at this premier Lifestyle Center. Experience fashion forward boutiques like Matriarch and Vasari that focus on the hottest fashion trends.

Aside from being a great place to spend your day, events are often held throughout the year here from food festivals to charity events, so make sure to check back frequently.

It is also important to note that just like a true European village, Tivoli is pet friendly, just make sure any furry companions are leashed.
