Golfers will enjoy beautiful courses where reasonable green fees stretch their dollars. Not only does Laughlin have the Colorado River for boating, swimming, fishing, waterskiing and other sports, but it also has gorgeous Lake Mohave offering much of the same on a grander scale. Plus, there's much to do here besides gambling. Las Vegas? No, but this small gambling town on the banks of the Colorado River offers a taste of Vegas minus the glitz, traffic and high costs. Hit the casinos, watch big-name entertainment and stay at a themed hotel.
