      You've not been there in the middle of summer with the crowds, all the families, kids, drunk teens, dirty unkept boardwalk, buffets are no good, then just across the river is Bullhead AZ the most homeless, stabings, Murders, and crime in the area.

    Reasons I like going to the river , taking the boat out and having beers and sitting in the water all day , dock the boat , stroll over to a casino and play some tables. In the winter time you can go off-roading in utv’s or jeeps. Or go shooting. Ect. Lots to do.

    I like your video. Here are reasons I go. Older, calmer crowd. Not as many drunks as Vegas. No fancy wardrobe required. Decent shows. Clubs of all interests have conventions here. Its just an easier, more relaxed vacation. No sex driven entertainment. No one is trying to shove escort and club cards into your hands.Cheaper gas in Bullhead than Vegas. Good food choices in both cities. Way less crime and homelessness. River view is better than bright lights view. Laughlin Rules.

    I visited Laughlin both on the drive to Las Vegas, and on the drive home. I liked Laughlin. My only complaint was that there was no baccarat to be found in Laughlin. Everything else about my two visits to Laughlin was great. I am looking forward to returning this year.

    It should be Why Not Laughlin? I enjoy going to Laughlin when I'm in Vegas. It's a nice town and and more relaxing than Vegas. Although there's a tribal casino not too far from the casino drive call Avi. I recommend everyone that goes to Vegas rent a car and take a day trip to Laughlin. RIP Don Laughlin.

    I should point out that compared to Las Vegas, Laughlin has a much older clientele. Older people are normally much calmer, more relaxed, and in my opinion much more courteous. The casinos cater to this older demographic, resulting in the more relaxed and courteous atmosphere. I should also point out that Las Vegas has become much "tighter" with the comps, such as free drinks. In Laughlin, if you are playing videos at the bar the drinks keep coming. No lights on the back of the machine to indicate you've "earned it". All in all Laughlin is a great choice if you fit the older demographic.

    Just came back from Laughlin. Nothing special. Entire area is very run down. Hotels feel dated, very smoky inside, restaurants are average at best. Carpet is dirty throughout many areas. Outlet mall next to Tropicana Hotel is very empty inside with more than half stores closed. The one unique hotel called Colorado Belle was shut down during Covid and never reopened. Restaurants have weird hours of operation. Some days open, some days closed. Very limited options. If you don’t have a car you’ll have to use water taxi whisper was pretty cool, $5 one way. Colorado river is nice but cold, max 53 degrees. Pool and hot tub in the Harrah’s hotel was very good. However, if you’re not into gambling, then I would skip this place. If you just want to relax and play games, then maybe you’ll be fine. Having visited Vegas multiple times, I still prefer to go to Vegas over this place.

    • @alvd8511
      @alvd8511 Рік тому +2

      Final thought… many people here are either locals or those who were chartered in from various parts of the country for $90. This included round trip flight, 4 night stay at Harrah’s, and transfer to and from airport. In other words, if it wasn’t for those chartered flights, this place would be empty. This should tell you something.

    Take care where you stay in Laughlin. Had to stay one night there on my way to grand Canyon NP and did the wrong decision to stay too cheap.
    Got a dirty ( I guess never cleaned since Corona started) room that smelled like a dead wet 3 dog.
    So take a look what you get.
    A lot of Laughlin is dead also... 😋

      We are a small town for sure, we have more hotel rooms than people!!!!!! 10,000 hotel rooms and only 8,500 people. But we have a LOT going on!
      Not sure what you mean by dead. Lake Mojave with tons of water activities, the river with amazing activities from jet boat cruises to jet skis, day cruises to London bridge, cool hidden beaches all along the river, fishing, off road races, free camping all around, lots of great shows and night life, casinos, bowling alleys, movie theaters, big name concerts, walking and hiking trails, on and on.......................Maybe I just misunderstood your comment. But dead? Clearly you need a tour guide, or a bit of research prior would have helped. And as far as the hotel, which one was it?
