What it's like to live in Mount Charleston

Old Town and Rainbow Canyon are home to a small, tight-knit community of cabins and mountain homes, many on large private lots surrounded by the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area.

This is a niche market with limited inventory — well suited to buyers wanting a primary residence away from the desert heat, a vacation cabin, or a rental investment near hiking and ski access at Lee Canyon.
