Bonnie Springs – Old Nevada, NV

Old Nevada keeps the Wild West alive with a replica of an 1880s mining town built on the 115-acre Bonnie Springs Ranch. Bonnie Springs is only a 30-minute drive from Las Vegas, but it is centuries apart. Boarded sidewalks line the streets, saloons spot the area, and stagecoaches and tumbleweeds rumble down the roads. Bonnie Springs has all of the action of the old west in a perfect environment for families. Kids enjoy the petting zoo, cowboys and cowgirls, a miniature train ride, and a posse show. This old mining town also offers a lot of rough-and-tumble action as well. Simulated gunfights in the streets, an 1830s melodrama recreated in the Saloon, and even a public hanging. Museums and displays are located throughout the town. An 1800s style chapel is a perfect and beautiful location for weddings. An opera house, Old Nevada Stamp Mill, and Boot Hill Cemetery round out the town. Originally built in 1843 as a stopover for wagon trains, Bonnie Springs Ranch epitomizes the Wild West experience.
