🏘️ $150M says Summerlin is the place to be

Well, 18 hours in the car, EACH WAY… that was fun.

Last week Gabe and I completed an amazing outdoor adventure at Twin Eagles Wilderness Survival in Northern Idaho. After an 18 hour drive there, five days in the wilderness with absolutely NO technology (not even an analog wrist watch), and an 18 hour drive back… I’m spent. 

The time in nature, outside of the city, was a good reset for both of us. Below is a picture of us after we did a camouflage course, or as Gabe called it, “the best game of hide-and-go-seek EVER!”

As we come up on the cooler part of the year, I’m wondering where YOU like to enjoy the outdoors in and around Summerlin? Reply to this email to give us your favorite fall outdoor activity or hot spot, and we will get it into a future newsletter!

The service is equally standout, with a seasoned sommelier guiding wine pairings that elevate every bite. Upscale yet inviting, it’s a true hidden gem off the Strip.
