Outdoor recreation and mountain views in Meadview
Between the winding Colorado River and the scenic Grand Wash Cliffs, Meadview is a desert town close to some of the largest recreation areas in Arizona. Located just west of Grand Canyon National Park, the community has quiet streets lined with panoramic mountain views across every corner of town. Originally planned as a retirement community, it has since become a town drawing outdoor enthusiasts across many walks of life. “People move to Meadview to get away from it all,” says Bryce Perez, a local Realtor with Re/Max Fine Properties. “The further away you get from United States Route 93, the more secluded you are.”

Waterside recreation on Lake Mead and Grand Canyon hiking
The Lake Mead National Recreation Area spans over 1 million acres and is home to the largest reservoir in the United States, and has beaches, marinas and miles of hiking trails. The Meadview Civic Association has an outdoor pool, sports facilities and a community library. Meadview is around 40 miles from the western rim of the Grand Canyon, with popular hiking trails, including the Grand Canyon West Skywalk, where visitors can walk on a glass-bottomed walkway 4,000 feet over the canyon. Kayakers and boaters can access the Columbia River from the South Cove Marina and boat launch a short drive northwest of the community. Because of a lack of light pollution, Meadview also draws in astronomers for its clear views of the night sky.

Private properties and attractive home prices
Manufactured and ranch-style homes line the streets of Meadview, with desert flora, blooming cacti and Joshua trees dotting many front yards. Houses sit on spacious, open lots, with properties ranging from a quarter of an acre to over 5 acres. Additionally, the area has a mix of paved and dirt roads, and many residents have four-wheel drive vehicles to maneuver the sometimes-rough terrain of Mohave County. “While a lot of people are drawn to the area’s peaceful atmosphere, others move here for the low house prices,” Perez Says. Manufactured homes range from $40,000 to $340,000, while single-family builds go for $80,000 to $400,000. There are also a wide variety of empty lots for sale, with prices ranging from $1,500 to $55,000 and increasing with acreage.

A small selection of businesses, from restaurants to outdoor decor

The Boathouse Cafe and Grille serves brunch dishes and pub fare, including their popular half-pound burgers. Two doors down, Anchor Smokehouse offers slow-smoked barbecue, from brisket to pulled pork, and pizza. Big Al’s Trading Post sells handmade crafts, outdoor decor and tools, while Meadview Gas N Grub has a small selection of essentials and snacks. There’s a Family Dollar on the south side of town. “While for a lot of people, being far from city amenities is a negative, many people move here for that exact reason,” Perez says. For a larger selection of supermarkets and eateries, Kingman is around an hour south.
