Lakes on the Colorado River

This is your gateway to recreational information for Lake Mead, Lake Mohave, and Lake Powell. Here you will find lots of unique information, some not available anywhere else on the web except here. Our goal at River Lakes is to be your Host and enhance your next trip to these magnificent lakes with tips, guidance, suggestions, and warnings for a more interesting and safe visit or vacation. Generally speaking, much of the information contained here you can only get with years of visiting these lakes.

The Colorado River stretches over 1400 miles long and touches 5 states in southwestern United States. Although our present coverage includes Lake Mead, Lake Mohave, and Lake Powell, we will be expanding in the future with Laughlin/Needles strip, Lake Havasu, Parker Strip, and the Blythe to Imperial Reservoir areas.

Candid and honest reports

You will find our reporting to be quite candid at times. We call it like we see it, but we encourage your feedback for accuracy. If you disagree with our reporting or opinion, let us know. Our goal is to provide accurate information to you and the National Park Service (NPS) to enhance everyone's vacation time to be fun, economical, efficient, exciting, organized, safe, and memorable.

Remember, the NPS is collecting fees for visiting Lake Mead, Lake Mohave, and Lake Powell now. They will have extra money to spend on lake amenities and infrastructure. You can influence where that money is spent with public input. If you have an opinion or a problem within these two national parks, Glen Canyon, and Lake Mead, email the NPS at the addresses below.
