If you’ve been dreaming of a home that blends luxury livinglock-and-leave convenience, and a vibrant social scene without being limited to a traditional 55+ community, Spanish Trail offers the best of all worlds.

Located just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip yet tucked behind guard-gated entries, this iconic community has earned its reputation as one of Las Vegas’ most enduring luxury addresses. And now, with my new listing at 5035 Shoal Creek, there’s an opportunity to experience this lifestyle firsthand.

 

 

A Resort-Style Lifestyle Without the Labels

Unlike age-restricted communities, Spanish Trail welcomes residents of all ages, which makes it ideal for buyers who want flexibility while still enjoying the perks typically associated with 55+ living:

  • Low-maintenance living – Many homes, like the Shoal Creek townhome, are designed for lock-and-leave convenience with multiple private outdoor spaces but minimal upkeep.

  • Private, gated security – With 24/7 guard-gated entries, you get peace of mind whether you’re living here full-time or using the home as a part-time retreat.

  • Resort-level amenities – Three sparkling pools, lighted tennis courts, pickleball, a fitness center, and walking trails make it easy to stay active and connected without leaving the community.

This is the perfect option for those who want freedom from strict HOA rules about lifestyle while still accessing world-class amenities.

Rich History, Timeless Appeal

Spanish Trail isn’t just another master-planned community—it’s a Las Vegas landmark. Originally developed in the 1980s, it was one of the first guard-gated golf course communities in the valley. Over the decades, it’s remained highly sought after thanks to:

  • Mature landscaping you won’t find in newer developments

  • The prestigious Spanish Trail Golf & Country Club, where social memberships and full golf memberships offer flexibility

  • prime location with seamless access to the Strip, Allegiant Stadium, and Harry Reid International Airport

In a city where communities come and go, Spanish Trail has stood the test of time by constantly reinventing itself while keeping its charm intact.
