Moapa Valley Why I Love

Moapa Valley is still our place of respite. It began with vacations locally for many years prior to moving here fulltime. Initially drawn to Moapa Valley for its proximity to Lake Mead, we enjoyed decades of wonderful boating experiences with our family. With each new adventure at the lake—plus riding OHVs in the spectacular red rocks of the Logandale Trails or hikes in Valley of Fire—we fell more in love with the offerings all around Moapa Valley. Yet the greatest gifts we found are in the relationships with so many great people who foster a deep sense of community support.

Here, the nights are full of stars and quiet, the streets are lined with American Flags all year long, and folks are still friendly and helpful to each other. We love that this valley remains filled with a balanced blend of agriculture, farms, and beautiful homes where families can safely live, play, and learn far away from big city issues, traffic, or noise. For active young families or retired folks, Moapa Valley is the perfect place to live, and we love it here!
