LAKE MEAD, NV

(1 to 8 March, 2004) We stayed at three of the campgounds. Boulder Beach is more family friendly, it's mostly filled with the large rigs and a long stretch of beach. This is the closest campground to Hoover Dam. No showers. No Verizon service.

Las Vegas Bay campground is more secluded, especially since the water level has dropped 60 to 90 feet in Lake Mead. The Las Vegas Marina has moved. staying here, you will get a lot closer to the coyotes at night and some great hikes just a few steps away during the day. No showers. We did get a shaky Cell and Internet Verizon service.

The third campground was Callville Bay. We met some great folks there, but the campground host and some of the campers were not friendly, to say the least. Here they do have showers and laundry up by the overpriced store. No Verizon service.
