Nevada’s 2nd-largest city, Henderson is packed with glitzy casinos, where you can test your luck on the slots, treat yourself to a mouthwatering gourmet meal, or sit back and enjoy some spectacular live entertainment. If you’d rather soak up some of the region’s year-round sunshine, take your pick from a round of golf on a lush championship course, or a thrilling family day out at Cowabunga Bay Water Park. Find yourself a dream Henderson vacation rental, and start planning an action-packed trip.
The Henderson area has established itself a golfing hot spot, with its dramatic desert landscape providing an idyllic setting for a host of challenging courses, all with beautifully manicured greens. Shopaholics are similarly well catered for, with huge, blissfully air-conditioned malls and exclusive open-air plazas to explore. Whether you crave old-school glamor or hip minimalism, you’ll find friendly bars to suit, where you can unwind over a pre-dinner cocktail. Later, you can indulge in some high-stakes fun in a casino, or head to a pulsing club to dance until the early hours.
You’ll find an eclectic array of attractions within easy reach of your Henderson vacation rental. Take an immersive trip back in time with a day out at the Clark County Museum. Here, you’ll find beautifully preserved historic houses set in lush, tranquil grounds, packed with exhibits that offer fascinating insight into local history. If you’re traveling with kids, a visit to Cowabunga Bay Water Park is a must. It’s home to colorful slides and flumes, that range from the gently thrilling to the positively nerve-shredding, plus plenty of shimmering pools to cool off in.
With almost 300 sunny days each year, and minimal rainfall, Henderson boasts a truly enviable climate. If you’re planning a family vacation, you might want to avoid the height of summer, when it can get scorchingly hot. Spring and fall, however, guarantee weather that’s warm but never overwhelming – and as an added bonus, you may find that Henderson vacation rentals are a little more competitively priced. It’s also a great choice for a spot of winter sun, although the mild temperatures at this time of year are better suited to brisk hikes than swimming and sunbathing.
A whole world of natural spectacle sits on Henderson’s doorstep. The captivatingly colorful surrounding desert simply begs to be explored – embark on a scenic hike to discover cascading waterfalls and tranquil hot springs, or cover ground more efficiently and travel by dune buggy or on horseback. Just a short drive from Henderson you’ll find the Lake Mead Recreation Area, with its shimmering, deep-blue waters, perfect for a spot of swimming, boating, or fishing. The area is also home to an array of eye-catching animals, from bighorn sheep to rare desert tortoises.
