Lake Las Vegas

Lake Las Vegas was built in the hills outside Henderson, but you'll swear you're visiting a small Italian village. This 2,600-acre master-planned community offers a blend of shopping, sports and peaceful living. Where else can you tee off on a Jack Nicklaus-designed course, dine at the Ritz-Carlton and take a gondola ride on a crystal-clear lake -- all within a half-hour's drive of Las Vegas?
