Kaysha K. • November 19, 2010The Calico Tanks trail is so worth it. The view at the end is breathtaking.

Sach G. • August 8, 2014Get the center viewing spot for the best experience; worth waiting. Oh and go there at night, no exceptions!

The Ritz-Carlton • August 31, 2016Pick one of the many trails along the entrance path to Hidden Beach and explore the rocky shoreline and the various outcroppings of private swimming pools for sunbathing or a cool dip in the lake.

Alyssa C. • February 27, 2014So much fun! Great place to take kids. Very educational (if you want it to be) & not pricey at all. Kept my attention all the way through! & They have their own restaurant & gift shop.

Chason M. • January 26, 2014Gorgeous views of both Lake Mead and the Memorial bridge. Parking on the Nevada side is $10, and parking on the Arizona side is free. We went with Arizona.

Kelly G. • October 30, 2013The view of the castle was amazing. The wind makes waves of both color and patterns were breathtaking. The side view of golden trees down the side of the mountain awed me

SisDr K. • September 24, 2015This park had something for every body - a dog park, a community garden, a skate park, picnic areas, a farmers market and basketball court. Great place - a haven in the city!

Jordan Bennett S. • January 27, 2011A must, for anyone visiting Vegas or the first time. Originally erected in 1959 it is now on the national registry of historic places.

Eric A. • February 22, 2017The trail can be a bit tricky to find at times…just follow the sandy footsteps.

Stephani E. • October 5, 2010Great place for kids in the daytime with a small "water park"! Night park-goers will enjoy very few interruptions and a safe and lit environment. A wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors!
