Explore Lake Mohave, Nevada & Arizona

Add to My List Check Off

Lake Mohave, the reservoir adjacent to Lake Mead, offers year-round recreational opportunities. Its clear water caters to boaters, swimmers, and fishermen, while its desert rewards hikers, wildlife photographers, and roadside sightseers. It is also home to thousands of desert plants and animals, adapted to survive in an extreme place where rain is scarce and temperatures soar. There are three resorts on Lake Mohave: Katherine Landing and Willow Beach in Arizona and Cottonwood Cove in Nevada. Willow Beach Marina offers an RV park with utility hook-ups, campground, boat rentals, and provisions. At Lake Mohave, divers can explore Black Canyon, which has excellent diving conditions. Advanced divers can check out Ringbolt Rapids, where swift water makes for an additional challenge. Work Barge on the Arizona side has a 38-foot tow barge that sank in 1946. Cabinsite Point has two boat wrecks to view. The volcanic origin of Black Canyon and Cottonwood Valley has resulted in a number of hot springs along the northern portion of Lake Mohave. The popular Gold Strike Hot Springs is located very close to the shore, which is accessible from a trailhead 1.2 miles south of the Hoover Dam. Two Mile Hot Springs and Arizona Hot Springs are within a few miles of this same area and offer a more private experience.
