Plan Your Lake Havasu City Golf Trip in 60 Seconds

Spring break energy meets desert golf on the Colorado River

Lake Havasu City is famous for its relocated London Bridge and party-friendly lake scene. The golf is solid budget desert fare, and the real draw is combining morning rounds with afternoon lake activities — boats, jet skis, and sandbar hangouts. Fly into Vegas and drive two hours south.
