Gated Community Homes for Sale in Ivins, Utah
Ivins sits just west of St. George in Utah's Red Cliffs region, where the sandstone of Snow Canyon State Park forms the backdrop for most of the town. Gated communities here tend to cluster around the golf and resort developments — Entrada at Snow Canyon is the best-known, with its Johnny Miller-designed course winding through black lava rock and red rock formations, but you'll also see gated enclaves inside Kayenta-adjacent neighborhoods and a handful of smaller private subdivisions off Center Street and Old Highway 91. Buyers shopping these addresses are usually looking for a lock-and-leave second home, a winter escape from colder states, or a primary residence with HOA-managed landscaping, private roads, and controlled access.
Pricing in Ivins gated communities generally starts in the high $700s for attached casitas and climbs well past $3M for custom homes on the Entrada fairways or with direct Snow Canyon views. Most properties lean modern desert or pueblo-style architecture, with stucco exteriors, flat or low-pitched roofs, and xeriscaped yards that fit Washington County's water rules. Summers run hot — July highs sit around 102°F — but winters are mild enough that pools, pickleball, and golf stay in play from October through May. St. George Regional Airport is about 20 minutes away, and Las Vegas is a two-hour drive down I-15. Browse the active gated listings below to see what's currently available across Ivins.

Common questions
About gated community homes in Ivins.
Which gated communities in Ivins should I know about? ▾
Entrada at Snow Canyon is the largest and most recognized, with a private golf course, fitness center, and clubhouse behind its main gate. Smaller gated pockets exist within and adjacent to the Kayenta area and along the foothills near Snow Canyon Parkway. Each has its own HOA structure, amenity package, and architectural guidelines, so it's worth comparing them side by side.
What do HOA dues typically cover in an Ivins gated community? ▾
Most dues cover gate maintenance, private road upkeep, common-area landscaping, and trash. At Entrada, separate club memberships handle golf, dining, and fitness and are billed apart from the base HOA. Expect base HOA fees in the $200–$500/month range for most gated subdivisions, with club dues on top if you opt in.
Are short-term rentals allowed in Ivins gated communities? ▾
Ivins is much stricter than St. George or Washington on nightly rentals, and most gated HOAs prohibit rentals under 30 days. Entrada has limited nightly rental zones tied to specific casita products, but the majority of the community is owner-occupied or long-term only. Always confirm with the HOA and city before assuming any rental income.
How does Ivins compare to gated communities in St. George or Santa Clara? ▾
Ivins generally offers larger lots, darker night skies, and closer access to Snow Canyon's hiking and biking trails. St. George gated options like The Ledges or Stone Cliff tend to be denser and closer to retail and the hospital. Santa Clara sits in between geographically and usually prices a bit lower than Entrada-area homes.
Do these homes typically come with private pools? ▾
Many do, though community pools at Entrada and similar developments reduce the need. Private pools are common in the $1M+ price range and often include spas and covered outdoor living areas built for the long shoulder seasons. Check listing details for whether pool maintenance is included in any HOA-bundled service.
What's the buyer profile for Ivins gated homes right now? ▾
A mix of California, Nevada, and Pacific Northwest retirees and semi-retirees, plus a growing share of remote-working families drawn to the schools in Washington County and the outdoor access. Roughly half of Entrada owners use their home seasonally, which keeps the community quiet through the summer months.
