The more popular fishing spots include Storrie Lake State Park , McAllister Lake, Morphy Lake State Park, and Conchas Lake State Park. Overnight camper accommodations are available at all the state park facilities. And all but Morphy Lake have available drinking water. Take Highway 518 north form Las Vegas for about 12 miles to highway 94 for another pleasant countryside drive that goes through several picturesque villages including Sapello, Ledoux, and Rociada. This is a favorite area for hunters looking for deer, elk, antelope, Barbary sheep, black bear, and mountain lion.
Sunsets are particular spectacular.
In a wide beautiful valley near Rociada, lies the Pendaries Lodge and Country Club, which sports a golf course, horseback riding stables, tennis courts, and a swimming pool. Guests at the lodge can view deer feeding in the summer twilight. A full service restaurant and salon are open daily. Conchas Dam State Park offers boating, fishing, and wind surfing on the 10,000 acre Conchas Lake. Boat ramps to the north and south and two marinas facilitate boaters.
