not much to do on Lake Mead but it can be fun at times. You may find a party like in the pic or you can go off and not see another boat all day. it's just under 40 miles from Boulder City to the mouth of the Colorado, or at least as far as I could go given the depth. Awesome scenery to see.

I've boated a few and coming from LOTO I think you would really enjoy Cumberland.

I've spent the day on that beach on Mead. Was in a rental though as we were staying in Vegas and decided last minute a day on the lake would be nice.

It would be cool to nose up to the beach like that and just chill. Can't do that here on Lake Erie that I know of or have found we always ankor out and raft up.

Lake Cumberland, Conley Bottom to the Dam and everything in between, that's our particular favorite part of the lake.

It is attached to Lake Ontario, but I would look at the St. Lawrence River. Just bring a passport.

Georgian Bay, the sixth Great Lake! I'm on Lake Huron a lot but GB would involve crossing the lake in my 22' Donzi!

Ya... She gets angry. But up North you can always find places to run.
