I live in Anthem Country Club and love the lifestyle. My husband and I like walking the 3-mile loop with my dogs. The community is beautiful, and I enjoy getting exercise while seeing the terrific views of the golf course, Las Vegas Strip and mountains! It’s a terrific place to meet friends and enjoy the many social events and activities. Social members have access to the gym with yoga and fitness classes, the pickleball and tennis courts and kids play area. There is a club house with activities such as Bunco and fun themed dinner nights at the 2 restaurants. Golf members have access to the same amenities plus the private Anthem Country Club world-class 18-hole golf course. We moved our family to Anthem years ago so that our sons could attend the public schools in the area. We lovingly call the Anthem area the “Anthem bubble” because we enjoy living in the bubble!
