Lake Havasu City

As everyone’s life seems to get busier, we tend to be more selective on what events we attend.

If we decide we do have the time, our decision on whether or not to go may rest on other opportunities that coincide with the meeting location. No one is really going to be excited about heading off to the meeting if there isn’t much to do during the off hours other than sit in the hotel watching basic cable. That’s why fun destinations, such as Lake Havasu City, can make a big difference in your meeting, and the attitude of the attendees.

Lake Havasu City has the facilities needed to handle small meetings on up to moderate sized groups. Hotels such as the Hampton Inn, The Nautical Inn (Arizona’s only all beach front resort) and the world famous London Bridge Resort, sitting adjacent to the famed structure from which its name comes, and the Quality Inn all have functional, attractive meeting space. That’s good for you, as the planner. What will entice the attendee is their proximity to fun.

As one would expect from a city with the word “lake” in its name, Lake Havasu City has an aquatic culture. The smartest of meeting planners will incorporate this into their plans. One popular option is to hold part of the meeting on the water. Groups have done everything from holding an opening session to even part of their meeting or closing ceremony on a houseboat in a secluded cove. In addition to something fresh and exciting, you’re also getting your attendees from unwelcome distractions.

Of course the water makes an excellent off-hours option as well. With countless boat rentals, fishing, or beautiful public beaches on which to relax and take in a little sun, groups find themselves returning to Lake Havasu City to take advantage of the opportunities.

Off the water, Lake Havasu City has excellent golf with 72 holes of quality golf to be played within city limits. The newest course, The Refuge, is an Arnold Palmer signature designed course with unparalleled beauty, yet is affordable for just about anyone. The London Bridge Golf Course has 36 holes of public golf, with gorgeous views as well. The Havasu Island Golf course is a fun yet challenging executive par four course.
Even more opportunities await in Lake Havasu City.
