Just off the eastern banks of the Colorado River, Rivers Edge is a popular subdivision 8 miles south of Bullhead City. “It’s the only subdivision to my knowledge in the area that is completely new builds,” says Nancy Laughlin of Insight Investments, who has nearly four decades of experience in the Bullhead City area. “We started out in 2019 with 164 homes in the neighborhood, and there’s only 18 left. That’s through COVID and everything. People keep buying in this neighborhood.” Despite its proximity to the river, Rivers Edge has no waterfront properties, but people can easily walk to the Colorado from their homes. It's a completely residential neighborhood, but restaurants and parks are all within 2 miles.
Ranch-style, Mediterranean homes
The subdivision features ranch-style houses with three or four bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. Private driveways and multicar garages are typical, and people can walk to their neighbors’ houses via sidewalks. Homes have Mediterranean touches like stucco facades and tile roofs. The sweltering Arizona climate means lawns have rock and cactus landscaping instead of grass. Prices range from $370,000 to $480,000. “It’s a great price point for what you get,” says Laughlin. “You won’t get a new build for the price in California, Las Vegas, Phoenix or anywhere else within a four-hour drive.” Homes are clustered together, but lots are big enough for private pools.
Streets in River's Edge are quiet and tucked close to the Colorado River and mountains.
River's Edge homes have a mediterranean-inspired design.

Baseball, swimming and skateboarding at Rotary Park
The neighborhood’s proximity to the Colorado River gives neighbors easy access to swimming, boating and fishing. Rivers Edge is just 1 mile from Bullhead City Rotary Park, a massive 300-acre recreational facility with a beach and fields for baseball, football and soccer. Residents can check out the skate park or grab a paddle or racquet and head to the pickleball and tennis courts. On the other side of the river is the Big Bend Recreational Beach area. This 2-mile section of beach has plenty of room for picnics and sand volleyball. Locals take advantage of the public boat launches and can sleep under the stars at the spacious campgrounds.
The basketball courts in Bullhead City Notary Park are a River's Edge favorite.
Big Bend Recreational Area offers access to picnic tables by the Colorado River and more.

Highway 95 to Laughlin
There is no public transportation available in Rivers Edge, so a car is necessary.

About 90 miles up the road is Las Vegas, home to the nearest major airport.
