Looking at the end of February for a small group of late 30's. We will probably rent a boat one day to cruise the lake and we are looking at air bnb. This will be a long weekend trip, Thursday thru Sunday. Any recommendations on things to see and do, places to eat and places to drink? Any tips in general? Thanks,

Flying to Phoenix, then renting a car. Looked into the Turo thing, but opted to go traditional this time. Flying to PHX is cheap on southwest.

You could check out the original london bridge

Closest I have been to there was Laughlin or IH 10

Not much in Havasu to be honest. London Bridge is the bridge to the island, so you'll see it without any problem. If you like to golf, there are several courses in the area that you can swing away on. There is a couple of bars right around the bridge and marina that are usually fun to hang out at.

The Grand Canyon isn't too far off, easy day drive. Havasu Falls is a day long excursion that has some really awesome views and sapphire blue water (5 mile hike in and out though). Hoover Dam & Parker Dam are in the area. Never been to Parker, but the Hoover Dam is a really cool tour.

Boating, golf and desert scenery is really about it. The biggest draw for Lake Havasu is that it is a lake in the middle of the desert. Not a whole lot around it really.

I was at/in Lake Havasu 20 years ago; I took my jet skis out there and had a fantastic time skiing up and down the lake (it is really a river). I would think in March the water will be quite cold.

As I recall, we stayed in Laughlin, NV. Jet Skied during the day and gambled at the casino at night.

With the terrain along the river, it is akin to jet skiing on the moon if that were possible.
