Lose yourself by Lake Las Vegas
Lake Las Vegas is a deep blue body of water located in the bustling, affluent city of Henderson, Nevada.

If that wasn't enough, the glitz and glamour of the neon-drenched Las Vegas strip is just 30 minutes away by car. And with an eclectic selection of Lake Las Vegas vacation rentals to choose from, you're sure to find your ideal home-away-from-home.
High-stakes fun around Lake Las Vegas
You'll find an abundance of colorful attractions within easy reach of your Las Vegas vacation rental. MonteLago Village is Lake Las Vegas' beguiling Italian-style waterfront community, dotted with romantic restaurants and gourmet grocery stores. The village also plays host to concerts throughout the year, so be sure to check local listings before you visit. Lake Las Vegas was once home to its own cavernous casino, but while you'll now need to travel a little further to get your gaming fix, the world-renowned gambling palaces of the MGM Grand, Luxor, Bellagio and Venetian are all within easy driving distance. Each offers jaw-dropping live entertainment, sensational international dining and more card tables and slot machines than you could conceive of.
Aquatic adventures on Lake Las Vegas
Lake Las Vegas serves as a glimmering beacon for aquatic adventurers of all persuasions. Here you can start the day with a spot of challenging but revitalizing paddleboard yoga, explore the sun-kissed shorelines by kayak, or kick back with the family aboard a gleaming pleasure boat. Or, for an adrenalin-fueled experience you'll never forget, try your hand at flyboarding, where you'll be propelled by pressurized streams of water high into the air. If that sounds too much like hard work, you may prefer to indulge in a full body massage or self-indulgent beauty treatment in a luxurious lakeside spa.
Year-round sunshine at Lake Las Vegas
Lake Las Vegas vacation rentals are in high demand throughout the year, thanks in part to the region's spectacular climate. This corner of Nevada enjoys around 300 days of bright sunshine each year, with low humidity and very little rain. Be warned that the high summer month of July and August can get sizzlingly hot, with temperatures above 100 a common occurrence. If you like your heat a little more moderate, spring and fall are perhaps the best time to visit. Winters are short and mild, although temperatures can plummet after dark, so be sure to pack a coat if visiting between November and February.
