Rhodes Ranch

Not kid friendly like it portrays. I moved in here for that! They offer kids gymnastics and dance classes for kids… but only girls. I have 3 boys and the two little ones would live dance or gymnastics. How about offering karate? No, nothing for boys. Not much for kiddos like a mommy and me class-​anything???
The water at the pool and water park is unheated and ICE cold. Even in the 110 degree weather it is like jumping into an ice bath. My husband and older son froze one day and it was 100 degrees and windy. Too cold to enjoy. If that doesn’t get you, the wind will freeze you when you get out. It’s like that in the pool and waterpark. My one year old and four year old cannot enjoy the pool. They went down the water slide twice and their lips were blue within 15 minutes.
The workout facility is nice but they do not offer childcare while moms workout. There are a lot of SAHM here in the community. I had to join a local gym instead and I pay HOA dues.
My 14 year old needs an adult supervision when wanting to play indoor basketball, play pool, pingpong, swim, or use the gym to workout. Kids have to be 15 and up. Not convenient at all.
And you better not forget your gym id because they will not let you in without it. They will not even look you up in the system and confirm identity otherwise. You need that card!
Otherwise the facility is great for single adults and old people. Not families and young mothers. Maybe because the HOA is run by all old people.

This review is specifically for their security guards. Getting access there is a nightmare! I run a business and we have different clients which some put us in their guest list and some forget and when that happens you’re set to wait for long periods, they will make it impossible! I understand security is important but we have clients in other high end neighborhoods such as The Ridges, Queensridge, Red Rock Country Club, Seven Hills, etc even the towers on the strip, Where their security is good and never have issues like in Rhodes Ranch.

HOA is too picky on landscaping and charges unreasonable fines without proper communications. We have a professional gardener to maintain the yard and HOA still fine us when we are out of town.

Such a great community! Especially if you have children. Bus picks them up. Drops them off. Guard watches and helps them cross. Water park. Activities for children all the time! Gym. Spa for adults only and a 2 other spas for families. Feel safe all the time security is strict. Feed the ducks. They just added a light in the back off fort Apache! Near by grocery shopping and fast food all kinds of stuff it’s also still growing. Lots of new homes being built in the back. New model homes that are so so worth going to see. Just wish pool wasn’t closed most of the year. Occasionally I’ll see security with a video camera trying to get people for speeding or not stopping witch is a good thing when there’s children playing all the time. Security is always driving around to make sure everything is ok. They’ll call you if someone is not on your list to make sure it’s ok to let them in. Depends who’s working gate some security can be annoying. Can post an add in the rec center anything your selling or promoting. I love that HOA is picky with landscape because if they weren’t it would look trashy. It is annoying when they put the big bright yellow sticker on your window for parking on the side between 12am to 6am stupid but it is nice to have a clear block lol all the parks in here are pretty with lots of grass and a bbq. We love it in here and love our area and neighbors everyone is so friendly :)

My family and I use to live in Rhodes ranch! It was amazing. We loved living there. Great for pets, kids, or even single couples. The golf course is excellent, the water park for the kids is super cool, and the walking paths are great for exercise. Truly a beautiful community.

I liked this place, until they stole from me. I left a $ 350 speaker in the recreation center. Luckily they found it. I came back to get it and suddenly no one knew where it was, even though the lady that ran the recreation center desk told me she personally found it and locked it up. Someone had conveniently cleaned out the lost and found and management had no idea where my stuff was. Back-​and-​forth for over a month they ignored my phone calls, claiming they were in meetings or they would call me right back and bouncing me around from person-​to-​person. Originally they told me they would reimburse me and then after a month when I kept calling about it, they told me that it was not their responsibility. So nice to know the community Managements steals from their residents!

We have lived in Rhodes Ranch since 1998. We know security can be rigid but Overall they have definitely made the community safer. I see the notifications on Alert ID but given the amount of homes and the problems we used to have, it is a relatively safe community. The HOA is all about enforcement. The rules are clear. Read them carefully before buying, renting, or leasing. You can’t pick and choose wich ones you like. The rules are the rules and you will be fined if you break them. If you have a tough time with any of the rules you probably need to look somewhere else. We love the gym, rec center and pool. The association fees are very affordable if you consider the benefits. In response to low income housing or section 8, I know the families who truly need the assistance must be grateful to have a safe place for their children. As a mother of 5, if I found myself in a tough situation and needed to ask for help, I would want that for my children. That being said, yes there have been some problems with some of the kids in section 8 housing and metro has been quick to respond. We love this community. It has been a great place to raise our family.

Why are so many people hating on RR lately? I’ve lived in LV for 10 years, in multiple areas. I moved into my house here last November and overall, it’s been my favorite place to live. Prior to living here I lived at One LV. For the same rent, I have a 2400+ sq ft home with a yard (albeit small) and all of the amenities offered here. I love that security is over protective! I mean HELLO it keeps the majority of unwanted people out. I can say it’s not ultra luxurious and due to the copious amount of renters, there are the occasional bad neighbors. Additionally, there should be more than one pool for all of these homes. I will NOT go to that pool with all those people and screaming children. Oh well, I digress. I would rather not get skin cancer wasting my time out there in the sun anyway. In closing, all the haters should chill. I doubt you’re breaking the bank living here and it’s the cleanest neighborhood in the city. Do I prefer my man’s house in Beverly Hills? You bet your ass I do! That’s okay though because when I get home, I’m always happy to be here because it’s modest with all the fixins.

I am somewhat amused that there are renters and others who do not like living in a very secure and beautiful neighborhood. We have never had trouble getting vendors and friends through the gates — there is an easy on line app that allows you to give access. If you expect strangers to drive into the community to just waltz in — that isn’t going to happen. That is why people moved here. If you don’t like it — please look elsewhere. This is a great place if you value safety, great rec center, beautiful walk around the golf course views, and recently many community events.

I have lived in this community since 2008 and we used to love it. The last year it seems nazi security has taken over. Food delivery places are threatening to stop delivering here and visitors are only allowed when security feels like it. People that are on my «visitors list» have been turned away and call me saying security turned them away. We are leasing and have leased with the same person since 2008 and will be moving when our lease is up. It would be one thing if the extra over the top security made the community safer, but look at an app like AlertID and you’ll see they haven’t. If you are a person that doesn’t have company, doesn’t order food or services and have no problem exchanging these things for a beautiful community than Rhodes Ranch is for you!

During this past EDC all our friends decided to stay at a rental home in Rhodes Ranch instead on the strip. I give it 4 stars just because it is little out of the way of the strip, but we didn’t mind since we had the pool party going all day and night! As other « Unilocalers» have mentioned this community is very close guarded and you feel safe. The community is also next to various places for food, gas, banking, and whatever else you might need. The place is enormous and has many amenities in it’s property! The home we stayed in was B E A utiful! it housed all 12 of us and provided so much space and privacy with a house full of ravers! All the homes in the community look great and well kept. The home we stayed had its own pool, spa and slide that made it hard to leave! I didn’t mind the small wait at the entry but I do have say they have their own patrol who actually does speed checks when you drive in, SO BE CAREFUL! I wouldn’t mind staying here again and possibly seeing what other homes offer.

My husband and I absolutely love living here! We love the fact that there are strict HOA’s so you don’t have to worry about your neighbors disturbing your home life. People talk about getting fined. You probably deserve it. If you didn’t want to live in a neighborhood with rules than you should not have moved here. I want to have respectful neighbors and a beautifully landscaped place to call home. Every time that I drive through the gate I feel the stress of my day fall off. There are such great amenities to enjoy as well. If you want to live in a neighborhood where you feel safe and want to live around respectful neighbors than check it out. People who complain about it are probably the ones we don’t want in here anyways. ;)

This Homeowners Association is run by a bunch of annoying idiots! My wife and I own a house in Las Vegas through Rhodes Ranch and we have decided to sell it soon and Rhodes Ranch is one of the reasons why. They are on your every move and will attempt to fine you $ 50 at every possible chance even if you do not breathe correctly according to these losers. Other examples would also include palm trees not growing correctly, garbage bins and recycle bins being left outside by your garage door, and of course paying their crappy monthly fees in the process! It’s always a great feeling to take away the power from a piece of crap company like this one (Rhodes Ranch). This Homeowners Association can go choke and fall off the face of this planet and take their rules and their policies and shove them! They won’t be able to harass us any longer with their worthless garbage. We are selling our house and leaving Rhodes Ranch in the dust where they belong. If you are interested in buying or renting in Las Vegas, then stay away from Rhodes Ranch. There are plenty of other nice areas to go to in Las Vegas. SO LONG SUCKERS!!!

My family purchased a home in 2011. My continued compliments to very well groomed community and very good security. Club house is a real plus specially when we have guests coming over. Staff friendly, no problem showing guests around. Dog friendly community and loved to walk around golf course. Very nice and relaxing view. Well maintained and groomed community. Keep up the good work!!!

This is where I’ve lived for the past 3+ years. I love it here. Great community center, gym, and pool. And a great golf course all walking distance from my front door.

This place is soooo gorgeous! My friend owns a house here and we stayed here over Memorial Day weekend. I love that it’s a golf resort /​residential gated area. My friend and I walked back on the streets at 2:30am, and it’s totally safe. He even layed on the ground a few times drunk in the middle of the street and I didn’t have to really worry that cars would would come by and smush him. It has security at the main gates at all times, adding to the safety. The main street is lined with trees in the middle divider, really beautiful. I believe there is a rec center too, complete with a water slide. 24hour Sonics is also nearby for late night munchies. Overall amazing stay. Beware though, all the houses and streets look exactly the same, so know how to get to your particular house /​vacation home!

This review is for the beautiful Rhodes Ranch community~ My boyfriend lives here so I am pretty much here all the time. There is really not much to complain about.
–24 hour guarded security: The security actually writes down all visitor’s info and calls the resident to get approval! Super safe neighborhood! This is great for those who have crazy ex girlfriends! And all of the security peeps are super nice.
–Beautiful community: Very well kept, clean and the golf course looks great in the sunset and sunrise! Great place to jog~
–Amenities: club house, gym, pool, mini water park, basketball courts, volleyball courts, billiards room. and so much more!
–Nice people: the people are really nice here haha everyone waves at everyone!
–Get togethers: We have thrown plenty of little get togethers and gatherings with our friends and have had no complaints. Just remember to let the gate know.
–Weather: My boyfriend is convinced it’s cooler here and the air is not as dry due to the golf course HAHA
My only complaint would be parking. They are very strict about street parking through the night. They put an annoying violation sticker on your car that is a biatchhhhhhhh to get off. Easy fix though, just ask the gate for an overnight pass. They are valid for 3 nights~
Verdict: great place to live for everyone~!!!

Having been to Rhodes Ranch 3x now, I’m just not impressed. It’s easier to get in to Nellis or Edwards AFB than here. Security has very serious attitudes, and it’s just a major PITA to get in because that over the top security slows up reasonable access for anyone living there much less their visitors. While I’m all for good security this is overkill that’s really not effective. If you want to see how security is done right find a reason to go visit the Switch SuperNAP and see the best vs. how amateurs think it should be.
Once you get in it’s just another overglorified golf course community with an overactive HOA. Nothing special, nothing you would want to deal with either. In short it’s ok to visit friends here, but that’s about it.

My family moved into Rhodes Ranch a couple of months ago. It is a dream for stay at home moms such as myself. My son was pretty upset when we moved because he wouldn’t be able to see his friends anymore, but in the 3 months we’ve lived here, we’ve managed to make friends with several families since many moms here stay at home as well. Everyday, we have to make the grueling decision of whether we should go on a walk, feed ducks by the golf course, go to the park, and soon, if we should go to the water park. We’re also zoned for Forbuss which is rated as an A school, which is obviously important to families that have little ones who are about to go into elementary school.
A huge bonus is that I feel very safe in the community. It is secured by security that take pictures of your license plate and check guests in. I can run at any time of the day or night as there are always people out and driving, I’m pretty sure I can’t get smuggled into the back of a sketchy van without someone noticing. The route around the community is a nice running path that spans 2 miles and is actually quite pretty to look at. Just watch out for the bees in the Spring.
I also love that if I want to go hit some golf balls, I don’t have to leave my community! They have a golf range, a course, and a restaurant! The HOA also sets up cool get-​togethers like toddler storytime and a carnival tomorrow!
Down side is that the gate can get backed up bad down Durango some times. I remember when we were moving on Superbowl Sunday at 3PM, we waited for half an hour just to get in.
Overall, pros severely outweigh the cons. If you’re considering moving here with small kids, do it! Best decision of my life.

My friend’s family has a vacation home here and we got to go to their recreation center on Saturday afternoon. It wasn’t as crowded even for a 4^th of July weekend. You can bring up to 4 people into the recreation center for only $ 5 per person per day. Not bad. The recreation center has a pool and water slides. It’s like your own mini water park there. Lots of tables, chairs and shade area. Really big pool. I was very impressed. They also have indoor basketball courts, badminton, Tennis courts, weight room, Pool Hall and workout rooms. It was really nice. Also the area is beautiful. Very green and well kept.
