Many people say that it would take a lifetime to fully explore LAKE MEAD. This definitely seems true when you first view this, the largest man-made lake and reservoir in the United States. Located on the Colorado River Lake Mead is about 15 miles southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada and covers the states of Nevada and Arizona. Lake Mead is formed by water impounded by Hoover Dam. It stretches out 110 miles behind the dam and holds approximately 28.5 million acre-feet of water.
One of the most striking aspects of Lake Mead is that the deep, clear water is juxtaposed to the cracked, dry desert that surrounds it. Lake Mead is a wonderful experience for vacationers who want to come and spend a couple of days experiencing the arid environment of a United States desert or those planning on staying a couple of weeks to relax and play on this highly recreational lake.
One of the most popular things to do is make a Lake Mead houseboat reservation. A houseboat reservation can provide a complete vacation --- any time of year. The great thing about a HOUSEBOAT RESERVATION is that the boats can sleep 4-15 people, starting at 44 feet and going up to 70 feet, and are perfect for a luxurious time with friends or just relaxing and having fun with the family. Your kids will enjoy the novelty of sleeping and living on a houseboat while parents and adults enjoy the therapeutic getaway from the stresses on found on the mainland!
