1 CHRISTMAS HOUSE: There’s still time to visit Dale Ryan and Dyanah Musgrave’s award-winning holiday decorated home at 1525 Fifth St. The display includes a ferris wheel, merry-go-round and thousands of lights. It is lit from 5-9 nightly through Dec. 31 unless it is raining or windy.

2 HOLIDAY LIGHTS: Grab your car keys and head out for a drive through town to see festive Christmas displays. Homes throughout the community feature inflatable figures, reindeer, snowmen and colorful lights, many which flicker in sync with music.

3 TAKE A HIKE: Burn off those holiday sweets and enjoy some fresh air hiking on one of the many trails surrounding Boulder City. For an easy stroll, take the Historic Railroad or River Mountain Loops trails at Lake Mead National Recreation Area.
