When you think of Las Vegas, beautiful outdoor scenery, an Italian style village or lake front resorts are probably not the first things that come to mind. However, you’ll find just that only 20 miles from the Las Vegas Strip.
The hustle and bustle of the crowds, high energy, and bright lights of the city in the desert fade into a scenic, quiet, man-made retreat in the City of Henderson, Nevada known as Lake Las Vegas.
