Charming Mt. Charleston transports the shopper from the bustling city life to a serene and scenic wonderland right in Las Vegas’ backyard. The lodge resort offers excellent dining and spacious rooms, all while enjoying the lush forestation that turns the mountainside a dark green in the summer and a dazzling white in the winter. Hiking, biking, and sightseeing are all part of the package. Be sure to end the day lounging in a spa with a drink in one hand and an eye on the splendid view.
As if the lodge weren’t enough, the town of Mount Charleston that surrounds it seems to grow right out of the mountain on which it sits. Life is slower here, and temperatures are cooler, 20 degrees cooler than Las Vegas on most days. Due to its elevation, Mount Charleston is perhaps the only place in Nevada where Christmas trees grow, transforming it into a true winter wonderland.
