Established on the west side of the Muddy River in 1865, Logandale was originally named St. Joseph.

The new Saint Joseph like the other Mormon settlements in the Moapa Valley was abandoned in 1871 due to a tax dispute with the state of Nevada.

Following the Mormon return to Overton in 1880, in November 1883 the post office operations were moved there.

Logandale is in the Moapa Valley, Nevada Census Bureau Census-designated place (CDP).

The Clark County Fair and Rodeo is held annually in Logandale.
