I love this place! Now if you're into the typical Vegas scene, this place isn't for you. However if you like the outdoors and educational fun, then you'll love this place. I've been here three times now and I enjoy it more and more everytime and I feel like there is something new I discover each time I go. First off, locals and local students get a discounted rate for admission. Once you enter the preserve you'll be taken back by how beautiful the place is. They have botanical gardens, some what of a zoo with various desert animals, trails to walk, and my favorite the Origen Museum (yes that's spelled correctly, it's a mixture of origin and generation). It's beautiful inside and if you go on a hot day it's a nice place to cool down. Overall I would highly recommend this place, granted if you're into the outdoors and education. I also hear they decorate the place during Christmas time, I will definitely be back for that!
