Quick Overview
Henderson has several RV campgrounds and parks in this large Las Vegas suburb, with some offering free camping options. As Nevada's second-largest city with over 300,000 residents, Henderson provides a more residential and family-oriented alternative to the Las Vegas Strip while keeping all the entertainment just 15-20 minutes up the highway. The city stretches from the Las Vegas valley floor up into the foothills of the McCullough Range, with newer master-planned communities, parks, and trails that make it one of the more pleasant suburban environments in the metro area. The Henderson Bird Viewing Preserve, built around treated water ponds, attracts over 200 species of birds and provides an unexpectedly natural experience in an urban desert setting. Lake Las Vegas, a man-made lake in a desert canyon east of town, offers a resort-like setting with walking paths and dining. The River Mountains Loop Trail passes through Henderson connecting to Boulder City and Lake Mead on a 34-mile paved path that's excellent for cycling. The city's Water Street District downtown has been revitalized with restaurants, shops, and community event spaces. Henderson's proximity to both the Las Vegas Strip and Lake Mead National Recreation Area makes it a practical base for exploring both urban entertainment and desert recreation without the noise and congestion of staying on the Strip itself.
