Living in Vegas for a decade and owning a small place in Havasu I spent plenty of time at both lakes. However we spent more time at Mead because it was less than 30min from our front door.
I hear a lot of people complain about Havasu being so crowded but Mead is about the same distance as Havasu from most SoCal cities so it surprises me more SoCal folks don't go to Mead.
We would go to Havasu to have more of that party atmosphere, hang with RDP and HB friends, and just to get out of town for mini vacations. When we just wanted to run in big open water, have beaches to ourselves and not deal with anyone we would stay at Mead (majority of the time).
Mead has a special place in my heart because that is where I first started boating and it was my home lake for 10 years. I do love both places and they offer different things.
Just curious why majority of SoCal people go to Havasu over Mead.
The answer is probably all the mini bikinis at Havasu and that is a great reason!!!
