The Lakes
Man-Made Lakes, Scenic Walking Paths, and Waterfront Character
The Lakes is an established West Side Las Vegas community known for man-made lakes, scenic walking paths, and a relaxed waterfront character that sets it apart from the newer developments further west. While older than Summerlin, The Lakes offers a more relaxed, established vibe with mature landscaping and genuinely unique lakefront properties that are rare in desert markets.
Home prices in The Lakes typically range from the high $400s for smaller properties to well over $1 million for larger homes with direct lakefront positioning. Some homes feature direct water frontage with docks and lake access, which is a uniquely Las Vegas Valley amenity that exists in only a handful of communities.
The community walking paths wind along the shorelines of the lakes, giving residents several miles of pleasant, scenic walking, running, and cycling options that feel nothing like the rest of the desert suburbs. Community parks, playgrounds, and gathering spaces supplement the waterfront amenities.
The Lakes is listed by many buyers alongside Summerlin-Adjacent communities because it sits near the Summerlin border, and Nicole Langill confirms its dual positioning: some buyers come to The Lakes via the West Side search, others via Summerlin-Adjacent. Either way, the community delivers a distinctive lifestyle and continues to hold its value well.
