Living on the Colorado River
Located on the eastern banks of the Colorado River, River Front is a skinny waterfront neighborhood of single-family homes and condos in Bullhead City, Arizona. From their homes, neighbors can see the bright lights of the gaming clubs in Laughlin, Nevada on the other side of the Colorado. “The river is everything in Bullhead City, so being right on the water is huge,” says Tara McMullen of Premier Executives Real Estate, a Bullhead City local. “The other big thing is being close to the gaming in Laughlin, and in River Front, you can literally see the casinos.” The entire neighborhood is residential, but shopping and dining options are located within a couple of miles.
Home prices in River Front are down 9% in the last 12 months.
River Front sits across from Big Bend Park, featuring sandy beaches and a seawall.

Big Bend Beach, and Laughlin casinos
River Front homes are just across the Colorado from the Big Bend of the Colorado, a massive Nevada state park with roughly 2 miles of shoreline. Locals set up picnics and spend the day lounging on the beach and swimming in the river. Others kayak, throw in fishing lines, go boating and hike on trails and through canyons. Residents head to nearby Rotary Park, less than a mile from the neighborhood, to let their dogs run off leash in the dog park and play nine holes of disc golf with scenic views of the river. The skate park was recently renovated, and kids can enjoy the three shaded playground areas. “Rotary Park has seen millions of dollars in renovations over the past four or five years,” McMullen claims. The park also has baseball, softball and soccer fields hosting regular youth sporting events. Adults can travel 8 miles across the river to Laughlin for gaming at the town’s many casinos.
