Lake Las Vegas, Artificial reservoir in Henderson, Nevada

Lake Las Vegas extends across 320 acres with an earthen dam that reaches 192 feet in height and spans 4,800 feet in length.

The reservoir originated from J. Carlton Adair's 1965 vision for a resort, leading to legislation that enabled a land exchange for dam construction.

The Lake Las Vegas Classic at Reflection Bay Golf Club brings together golf enthusiasts, featuring tournaments, food selections, and musical performances.

The reservoir receives water from Lake Mead through the WWII BMI Pipeline and collects up to 2000 acre-feet of annual stormwater from Las Vegas Wash.

Three major resorts frame the reservoir's shoreline: Aston MonteLago Village Resort, Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort, and Hilton Lake Las Vegas.

Location: Nevada

GPS coordinates: 36.11577,-114.91766
