Valentines Day getaways - for families

by Teresa Plowright

Lake Las Vegas

Picture a luxury lakefront resort development, 17 miles from the (in)famous Las Vegas Strip: so near to all that glitz, and yet so far.

Lake Las Vegas is a 320- acre privately-owned lake with marina, a shopping and dining "village", private residences, and three resorts: the Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas, the Hyatt Regency Lake Las Vegas Resort, and the MonteLago Village at Lake Las Vegas -- all designed with Italian influence.

The MontLago Village has condo units with up to three bedrooms, and fully equipped kitchens -- always a plus, for families-- and a game room with fooze ball, air hockey, video games and board games. You can rent these units just like a hotel room. Lake Las Vegas: the lake has fishing, sailing, kayaking, swimming; around the lake and in the desert hills are paths for hiking and biking.

If parents want some couple-time, the Ritz Carlton Lake Las Vegas has a Ritz Kids Club-- unfortunately for Valentines Day vacationers, it's only open during summertime. But if parents want to enjoy Las Vegas as a couple, they can arrange for babysitting at any of the resorts, and drive the 17 miles to the glitz and the Strip.
