Mt. Charleston

Mt. Charleston: An Alpine Lifestyle Close to Las Vegas  Envision owning a home or building your dream property nestled in the heart of the Toiyabe National Forest, surrounded by majestic alpine forests, yet just a short drive from Las Vegas. Located only 20 minutes from Las Vegas’ first subdivision street lights and 45 minutes from the Strip, this is the perfect blend of nature and convenience. Whether you’re seeking rejuvenating daily living or a peaceful weekend getaway, Mt. Charleston offers the best of both worlds.  Picture yourself in a cozy cabin, charming chalet, or luxurious mountain home, all with breathtaking mountain views, towering pines, crisp clean air, and a true four-season experience. Properties range in elevation from approximately 7,000 to 9,500 feet, with the iconic Mt. Charleston Peak towering at 11,918 feet above sea level. Relish the changing seasons—from the fresh blooms of spring to the golden aspen leaves in fall, and enjoy a break from the summer heat under the shade of tall pines. Abundant wildlife, including mule deer, rabbits, foxes, turkeys, chipmunks, squirrels, and a variety of birds, add to the serene atmosphere.  The name “Charleston” was given to the peak by John C. Fremont during his exploration of Southern Nevada, in honor of Charleston, South Carolina, his wife’s hometown. Mt. Charleston is the third-highest peak in Nevada, located within the Spring Mountains, and is part of the 316,000-acre Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. As you drive up the mountain, you’ll notice a change in both temperature and vegetation, with Joshua trees at the lowest elevations, cedar trees at mid-level, and an alpine forest as you reach the top. The Bristlecone pines found here are among the oldest living organisms on earth.  Seasons of Mt. Charleston
