Lake Las Vegas was the grand vision of actor J. Carl Adair back in 1967, who imagined an Italian themed palatial waterfront luxury resort retreat just 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip. Located in the City of Henderson, Nevada, the Lake Las Vegas community offers something for everyone from an Italian style village, championship golf courses, luxury spas, and a wide range of water activities such as renting paddle boards, kayaks, and electric boats. La Contessa provides luxury yacht cruises with fully stocked bars for sunset and brunch cruises, along with live DJs, musicians, and catered dining during on-the-water events.

For those looking to make Lake Las Vegas their permanent residence, housing options range from affordable to high end luxury homes and include vacation, condos, mansions, and single family homes with many of them located by the water, golf courses, or with incredible mountain views. It doesn’t take a genius to understand why so many people choose to call Lake Las Vegas home.
