Is The Ridges Pet-Friendly?

For our clients moving from the gated enclaves of Medina or Newport Coast, pet safety is a top-tier priority. The Ridges offers the most dramatic backyard views in Summerlin, but requires a "Luxury Desert" approach to pet ownership.

The "Canyon Fortress" Advantage

The Ridges isn't just guard-gated; it's a controlled environment. However, because many homes back directly onto the Bear's Best golf course or open desert canyons, wildlife awareness is key.

• Large Lot Security: 1-acre estates in Azure and Silver Ridge provide enough space to build secure, aesthetically pleasing "pet zones" or custom-screened patios (catios).
• Golf Course Etiquette: Homes backing onto Bear's Best are "leash-only" zones to protect both golfers and your pets.
