Overview

Think of the Lake Mead Headquarters as the park’s in-town nerve center—more office than attraction. It’s the Information and Administrative Offices in Boulder City, handy when you want a straightforward answer before you head to the water.

What to Know

  • Location: 601 Nevada Way in Boulder City.
  • Focus: Visitor information and administrative services; it’s a practical stop, not a sightseeing destination.
  • Facilities: Restrooms are available when the office is open.

When to Go

Hours run Monday–Friday, roughly 8 a.m.–4 p.m., and it’s closed on weekends. Swing by on a weekday morning for the best chance of quick help with minimal wait.

Pro Tip

If you’re looking for exhibits, the park film, or a full visitor-center experience, head to the Lake Mead Visitor Center on Lakeshore Road instead; that’s the place designed for browsing, learning, and starting a day of exploring.
