St. George has experienced growth spurts throughout its history, transitioning into an area with resort appeal when its first golf course was built in 1965. A dozen courses followed in Washington County, spurring some to call the region the, “Palm Springs of Utah.”
The geographically diverse and ruggedly beautiful landscape lends itself to activities beyond the links such as biking, hiking, cliff climbing and horseback riding. Active retirees are especially drawn here for its enviable lifestyle and climate. Moderate winters offer four-season recreation.
The landscape provides a stunning backdrop for St. George’s most exclusive neighborhoods, most of which are located in the hills and mesas. Buyers can select from properties in luxury golf communities, equestrian estates, secluded ranches and, perhaps most desirable, residences with views protected forever.
