Mohave Valley vacation rentals

About Mohave Valley

Mohave Valley sits in the stretch of Arizona where the Colorado River runs green and cool through the Mojave Desert. Life here revolves around the water: pontoon boats, jet skis, wakeboarding, and long sandy beaches along the river's edge, all under some of the sunniest skies in America.

Across the river, Laughlin's casino resorts add shows, dining, and nightlife — reachable by car or the little water taxis that shuttle across. Lake Havasu and its relocated London Bridge are an hour south, and Las Vegas is an easy 90-minute day trip north.

Vacation rentals in Mohave Valley

Mohave Valley vacation rentals are mostly single-family homes — many with pools, boat parking, and river or mountain views — at prices far below better-known river towns. Riverfront homes with private docks are the premium choice for boating groups.

Winter brings snowbirds and perfect 70-degree days; summer is for river people who don't mind 100-plus afternoons when the water is the point. Book holiday weekends (Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day) well ahead — the river fills with boats.

Boaters, snowbirds, and desert explorers
