Spring is here and Summer is coming fast! And Summer in Bullhead City, Fort Mohave and Mohave Valley, AZ is when it really rocks to live here along the Beautiful Colorado River.
We are a resort area and have visitors and vacationers all year round, but there are two particular ‘on seasons’ for our Colorado River towns: Snowbird Fall/Winter and River Rat Spring/Summer.
And River Rat Spring/Summer is upon us.
Are you heading this way, perhaps to buy property in Bullhead City, Fort Mohave or Mohave Valley, AZ?
Planning to spend time vacationing at the Colorado River?
Here’s what you need to know, do and remember:
- WATER. It is more essential than EVER. Bring plenty of it, drink lots of it, keep it cold.
- COMPS CARD. If you’re going to be staying in one of our local casino resort hotels, get a player’s club card. The perks are worth it.
- SUNSCREEN. Even if the sun isn’t shining, you will need skin protection. Especially if you don’t have a ‘base coat’.
- LAYER clothing. Temperatures can change quickly.
- CAR SEAT COVERS. You will not like the feel of hot leather seats on your skin.
- HATS, SUNGLASSES are important. This may be brighter sun than you’re used to.
- RULES OF THE ROAD. We have photo enforcement. And we are a ZERO tolerance state for DUI drivers.
- BOAT SAFELY. Every year we lose tourists who neglect boating safety rules and end up hurt, killed or incarcerated. Don’t be one of them.
- RULES OF ENGAGEMENT. We are friendly and courteous. But we have a short tolerance for disrespect. Give it to get it.
- TIPPING. This is a ‘right to work state’ with low wages. Tips and gratuities are what pay bills and feed families around here. I’m not saying tip bad service but please tip good service, and tip well for great service.
- CASINO COURTESY. If you see a player’s club card in a machine and an upside down coin cup on the seat, THAT SEAT IS TAKEN. Change machines have replaced many change people, unfortunately. So players need to leave their machine to go for change. Don’t take their machine. Keep the aisles clear. And be a courteous smoker.
- PICK UP YOUR TRASH. This should be a no-brainer but the River is NOT the place for your cans or wrappers.
- PETS. Do NOT leave them in cars while you shop or gamble! They will be hurt or killed. And please pick up after them.
- GET A MAP. I’ll mail you one if you like. Just ask.
BE SAFE AND HAVE FUN!
