I recently walked the river walk while visiting family living in the local area. It was a great idea, it was a 2 mile each walk, from the parking lot, to the dam. It is a very nice, relaxing walk. The paths are wide, and clean, I wish I had my bike! They made a nice park, near the dam,... More

We took the river cruise on the paddle boat to Davis Dam. It was a lovely view of the dam and a nice way to get there. The kids loved being on the double decker boat.

If you haven't gone to the nearby nature park, try it, you'll be pleasantly surprised. Lots of things to do, great view of the river, and plenty of nature trails. Don't miss it!

Although the Dam is closed as well as the drive by it is still interesting to walk around and see it from the outside and read the informative signs telling how the dam works. It is beautiful and peaceful and the view of the lake and river is nice as well.

We enjoyed the new park at the Davis Dam. The paths are well maintained and the river is clean and full of water birds. A welcome break from the stinky casinos

Something to do kinda interesting. Lots of interesting facts. Be aware that u have to walk across or bike but, we knew that prior to going. It is only a few minutes away from town not a waste of time or gas in our opinion.

I wasn't able to get into the Davis Dam area, but drove fairly near it, and it is pretty neat to see. A must see if you are in that area of Laughlin, AZ.
