Golden Nugget Hotel
The Golden Nugget, on historic Fremont Street, is another fun water location for kids.
Off the Strip, the hotel offers a three-story water slide. There's also a shark tank that will enthrall the kids. Combine the two attractions to form a slide that tunnels you through the shark tank.
If sharks and water slides aren't for you, try the video arcade at Golden Nugget. Filled with games like pinball and air hockey, the arcade keeps the kids busy while you're on the links or in the casino.
Also, being on Fremont Street gives you an added option, the Fremont Street Experience. The Fremont Street Experience includes a pedestrian mall adjacent to the Golden Nugget. A laser light show on a barrel canopy is displayed a quarter-mile stretch along Fremont Street.
