Springs Preserve

Springs Preserve in Las Vegas was such a pleasant surprise during my visit to the city. The museum and garden were both impeccably maintained and full of informative exhibits. The staff was incredibly helpful and polite, providing lots of valuable information. Overall, a fantastic experience. 5 stars!

I had a great time visiting Springs Preserve in Las Vegas. The museums and gardens were impressive, and it was the perfect spot to spend an afternoon. The staff and volunteers were all very helpful and friendly. I was pleasantly surprised by the animal and insect exhibits at the State museum, and it was really exciting to see the fox awake from his nap.

We didn't get to see it all since my shoe broke. There was so much to explore/see/learn. Neat playground nook. Informative signs and staff. Train ride was fun! Don't miss the butterfly exhibit if it's open. They had Halloween decorations up everywhere which was cool. The app is worth downloading - it's free and you can get directions to each attraction.

If it was possible to give this place 10 stars I would. There is something for every age group and so much to see and do. If you are local please get down here ASAP. If you are not, please look up on line for hours and directions. Make this part of your must-dos when you are in Vegas. There is a cafe on premises but you can bring in waters and snacks. There is educational programing, hands on activities, live animals, dinosaur bones, videos, gift shop and seasonal displays that you won't want to miss!

This was my first time here and I was pleasantly surprised by the size and scale of this place! So many nooks and trails to explore. Inside extractions along with outdoor activities were perfectly paired. Probably not ideal for small kids as they won't understand a lot of the "why's" but could be fun for them to burn energy by running around. Tons of shade on warm days like today. I highly recommend this Vegas gem!

Springs Preserve is a true oasis in the heart of Las Vegas, offering a unique blend of history, nature, and culture. As a visitor, I was thoroughly impressed by its diverse attractions. The botanical gardens were a highlight, showcasing the vibrant flora of the Mojave Desert. Walking through the cactus gardens and lush landscapes was both educational and serene. The Butterfly Habitat was particularly enchanting, providing a chance to observe these delicate creatures up close. The interactive exhibits at the Origen Museum offered fascinating insights into the history of the region, from its ancient geological formations to its more recent human history. It's an educational experience that's both engaging and informative. The sustainability focus at Springs Preserve is commendable, and it's inspiring to see how they prioritize eco-friendly practices and promote environmental awareness. The Desert Living Center is a testament to this commitment, featuring eco-friendly architecture and sustainable living demonstrations. For families, the playgrounds and outdoor play areas provide a fun and educational experience for children. The train ride around the preserve is also a hit with the little ones. Overall, Springs Preserve is a must-visit for anyone in or passing through Las Vegas. It offers a refreshing break from the city's hustle and bustle while providing a deeper understanding of the unique ecosystem of the Mojave Desert. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, history buff, or simply seeking a peaceful retreat, Springs Preserve has something to offer everyone.
