lake mohave

we tried both places on Lake Mohave...there is a lot of driving to get to the beach and then to the nice picnicking sites further up but well worth it as a beautiful place to lounge with nice rock formations, clear water, beach seems a bit rocky but with bathrooms closeby too.there is a park fee of 10.00 good for 7 days there is also a store...in the warmer weather this place would likely be crowded unfortunately there was a cold snap when we went but we enjoyed it anyways bundled up with layers of clothing .....

Lake Mohave is likely the premier western states freshwater body of water for scuba diving. Shore dives...boat charter dives...one never knows what they might find. Good fishing, great water craft fun. VERY crowded during the summer and holiday week-ends...up to several hours launch time wait! Contact Dive Shack USA in Bullhead City for dive schedule, destinations and charters.

The lake is big enough to spread out many people. The water is down but it is still fun. After October there is very few people but lots of fun to zoom around the lake.

I went to school in Las Vegas. Being from Hawaii the water (read: ocean) is a important recreational area for me. We tried going to Lake Mead, but it's not really a play-in-the-water type area. When asking about better places to get in the water a friend recommended Lake Mohave. After the Lake Mead experiences I as skeptical. Boy, was I wrong!The access area is about halfway between Las Vegas and Laughlin. The road leading off of the highway is pretty long. Be ready for that. And there are no services at the site. Bring everything you need.As long as you're prepared this is a great site. The water is very clean (for a lake). I went during the Summer, so the water temperature was comfortable to warm. There were some fish. Although the sandbar is small, it was nice to just hang out on the "beach."I marked that there "are" bathroom facilities. There are port-a-potties. Once we knew about the area we went back multiple times. If I still lived in the area we would be there often.

Lake water temperature is about 78-80 degrees on the beaches. We love to find a cove and make a camp to have a peaceful day. Kids enjoy using goggles to look for fish and odd items on the bottom of the clear lake.

We go there every summer to spend time with other friends who boat and jet ski. We love the lake, it's clean, the water temperature is refreshing but not cold and the beaches are flat, you can put chairs and tents on them (as opposed to Lake Mead).

Perfect place to jet ski. Only problem if its busy good luck finding a beach that you can put them. They are crowded. We search along time to find a very small place. Its a beautiful lake and water is so blue. Its kind of expensive because it a national park. You have to pay for both jet skis and then of course to get in. If you plan on going back pay for the yearly pass. It was funny watching everyone trying to lift there boats out of the water. In fact that was the best part of the day. Its very hard for people to put the boats back on there trailer. Its a good things people are willing to help other people or there would be death by stress.

Came here with friends to take some jet skis out on the lake...had a super good time. Clean/clear water and beautiful desert setting. Laughlin and Bullhead City not far away for lodging and restaurants.

We just went for a quick visit to see if we could find spots on a busy family weekend and we did succeed. The shores are sandy with plenty of space to make your own little private area. There is a Marina with a little store and restaurant. All in all a great getaway if you like being near water and watching people play in the water.

Make sure you have a $300 deposit and it cost $120 for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Find someone to rent for all day. They also have police on the Lake also. Safety first. The water is beautiful.

Worth the trip to this beautiful lake. We stopped here on the way to the Grand Canyon from Los Angeles. Refreshing to take a swim in this clean lake and wasn't too crowded during the weekday.I brought my kids with the youngest at 7 and it was shallow enough for them to play in the water even though they are non swimmers. Driving terrain can be a bit rough on the unpaved roads. Overall great experience and highly recommend it.

This is a beatiful place to visit. Ls an amazing lake to visit all year round for boating, fishing and watersport. With lots of great. It is great for kids and adults. Make sure to bring food, have lots of fun!

Nice, peaceful place. Not busy at this time of year. We enjoyed seeing London Bridge as it felt just like home. Although we didn't take advantage, there are boat trips available.

Didn't go down to the lake, but the view was spectacular. I hear that there are many coves that you can beach your boat for a day picnic.

The area is just post card beautiful! The water is crystal clear you can see to the bottom. Great coves and day and overnight spots to spend with family and friends . You can find many restrooms along the shores and even floating on the lake. We went snorkeling and was just amazed at the amount of fish we saw!
