Sparks · Community guide

A Sparks golf community built around Red Hawk's two championship courses.
Search Wingfield Springs (opens in a new tab)Talk to a local agent

Wingfield Springs is a master-planned community in northeast Sparks, built around Red Hawk Golf and Resort and its two 18-hole courses. It began with a 1994 master plan on land that was once part of George Wingfield's ranch, and it is within the City of Sparks.

Buyers look here for golf-course and open-space settings, parks and quick access to Pyramid Way and Vista Boulevard. In 2026 the community has also been dealing with a proposal to replace the Lakes Course with housing, which any buyer should follow closely.

Wingfield Springs reads as a golf community with a suburban core. Fairways, lakes and wetlands run through the neighborhoods, and the Red Hawk clubhouse, David's Grill and the Swim and Fitness Center act as community gathering points.

Everyday shopping is along the Pyramid Way and Vista Boulevard corridors in Spanish Springs and northeast Sparks. Downtown Sparks, I-80 and Reno are a 15- to 25-minute drive in normal traffic.

The community is organized as City of Sparks planned developments with their own handbooks, and most homes belong to one or more homeowners associations.

  • Two championship courses

    The Lakes Course is widely credited to Robert Trent Jones Jr. and the Hills Course to Hale Irwin. Red Hawk also offers a private club membership program; ask the club which course access each membership level includes.

  • Golden Eagle Regional Park

    A large City of Sparks sports complex on Vista Blvd., opened in 2008, with softball, baseball and Little League fields and a stadium-size football and soccer field.

  • Open space and wetlands

    Lakes, wetlands and open-space corridors are part of the original plan and a major reason residents have opposed converting golf land to housing.

Golf-course and core neighborhoods

  • Wingfield Springs core

    Around Wingfield Parkway and the Red Hawk Lakes Course

    Mostly production single-family homes from the late 1990s and 2000s, with some townhome-style product

Most homes in Wingfield Springs are single-family, built by production builders as the master plan filled in. Homes on or near the fairways and water features typically draw more interest than interior lots.

Every buyer should factor in the Red Hawk Lakes Course proposal. In January 2026, Red Hawk Land Company filed applications with the City of Sparks to convert the Lakes Course to as many as 764 single- and multifamily units, citing golf-course financial losses. In May 2026, KRNV reported that city staff issued a preliminary recommendation to deny all four applications.

  • Golf-course single-family

    Homes backing to Red Hawk fairways, lakes or wetlands.

  • Interior single-family

    Production homes on standard suburban lots.

  • Attached homes

    Some smaller-footprint options exist; confirm HOA and exterior-maintenance terms.

Market snapshot

  • We did not publish a median price because we could not verify a current Wingfield Springs figure across two reliable sources as of September 2026. Ask us for recent sales on your target street.

What buyers should know

  • Track the Red Hawk Lakes Course applications with the City of Sparks. Outcomes could affect views, open space, traffic and golf access.
  • Review HOA documents for both the master and any sub-association, including dues, reserves and any golf-related covenants.
  • Golf-course lots can come with errant balls, maintenance noise and irrigation overspray; walk the lot at different times.
  • Do not assume access to the Hills Course or fitness center comes with the home; those are membership-based.
  • Confirm school assignments with WCSD; northeast Sparks boundaries have shifted with growth.
