Summerlin residents vote for favorites in poll

The results are in! The master-planned community, home to more than 100,000 residents, announces its 2020 Best of Summerlin winners — all the places, people and things people love about living in Summerlin.

Via an online vote, community residents and the public named favorites from finalists in each of 17 categories. While some names are repeats from previous years, new names appear on the list as the community continues to grow.

“This competition allows us to showcase and celebrate the venues, facilities, restaurants and other popular places and amenities that make Summerlin such a great place to live,” said Danielle Bisterfeldt, vice president of marketing for Summerlin. “The Best of Summerlin competition is especially meaningful because it’s the voting public who decides the winners. And winners are proud to showcase their Best of Summerlin designation all yearlong. Look for the Best of Summerlin logo proudly displayed at your favorite community spot.”
