Has Anyone gone to Vegas with our rigs?

[Security team 24/7]

Just Curious if anyone here has gone to stay in Vegas or surrounding suburbs for a short visit?
DW has expressed interest in visiting there for a couple of days on our way back home from
Arizona...We are open to suggestions...We have the smart with us and can also tootle around
with it, although dw was hoping to stay within walking distance of the Strip...if that's possible?

[rdickinson]

Stayed at the KOA for one night when passing thru in early January. Place was fine, pool, good facilities. Oranges for the picking on the trees. They have covered parking if you want it. OK for Big Rigs, bar, restaurant, store.....full meal deal. No complaints here.

 

Casinos within walking distance....Google it up.

Don't know of any RV Parks within close walking distance of the Strip but there is a KOA at Circus Circus, I'm unfamiliar with this park. Also, there is the "Clark County Shooting Complex" at the extreme NW Las Vegas. Pull Thrus & Rates are reasonable, 20-30 minute drive to the Strip

[Security team 24/7]

Thanks Roger! Forgot to mention in my post that we have a small dog also! I was hoping to get a few replies
from members that actually experienced a park and then I was going to check those parks out online...It's also
good to hear about first hand experience!

We have stayed here and it worked out well.

Also beware the KOA is no longer at Circus Circus.

They moved to another location!

We stayed at a park between the strip and I15 on the south side of Tropicana. With Passport America it as $30 per night. Worth mush more than that. Paved pads. Adult pool. Very nice.

At only 65 feet overall we might not be quite as big as some of your rigs but had no trouble fitting into one of the pull throughs at Main Street Station Casino. We were traveling with one of our German Shepherd dogs. They had a dog walk area not far from our site. Good luck finding space.

Howdy,

 

We stayed at the Circus Circus around 3 years ago, it was a KOA at that time if memory serves.

 

It was a big parking lot, but a reasonably well organized one, rates not to expensive and definitely within walking distance to the Strip (we did walk there and back the night we arrived).

 

Cheers,

I've stayed there also. Can be a little tight turning into some of the sites if you're worried about driving on the manicured grass, but was a really nice place to stay. Like most establishments in Vegas, you could randomly part with your money and/or get married without leaving. Easy access to I-15, and closer to the buffet (which includes alcohol) at the M at the south end of Las Vegas Blvd.

[rdickinson]

I would also add that KOA will fwd book your stay for the next night with your rig. If you're pulling long days on the road this will take the guessing out of where you will or can stay or fit.

Call re pet policy, it may be on line also....probably not an issue.

 

Some have an axe to grind re KOA but I'm not one of them. Older parks may have size constraints.

[nana25k]

Unless something has changed the Circus Circus KOA was slated to be closed last year. We syasyed there 2 years ago and it is just a parking lot but served pur needs there were as couple HDT rigs in there on the end spaces

[billr]

For sure the KOA was closed at Circus Circus, they ended the lease. They are re-purposing the land. Its now at Sams Town which we stayed at a few years ago as their own park. Nice facilities easy in and out and at 65' we fit on the site with Smart parked on pad as well. Dogs were no issue.

 

Walk next door to big Casino food, movies etc. There is a free shuttle to Strip.

 

We also stayed a month at the Oasis on Vegas Blvd Its about 10 min from main strip by car. Not walking dist to anywhere. Not sure about shuttles. It is close by car to 3 casinos 5 min or so. No issues with 4 large dogs. They do req you to use the dog parks for business and they have many. For sites you have to use the big Super sites pull thrus or whatever they call the. They take two sites and use them as one for big rigs. They are very nice. Highest cost sites though.

[Jack Mayer]

We have stayed at Sams town many times. But never with out 45' coach and 30' Volvo. We did fit OK with our Jeep, Volvo 610, and 38' Royals International. All on one site, but we took it ALL. Jeep was diagonal behind the trailer.

[Refuzn-To-Grow-Up]

I have stayed at Sam's Town many times, with four dogs. Most recent was about 2 months ago.

Thanks all for the replies...Looks like it's between Sams Town and Oasis Las Vegas!

[billr]

Enjoy Walter. Wish we were there to see you guys.We are in Fl this year.

[Jack Mayer]

Be aware that Sams Town runs a good shuttle that hits the strip and the downtown area. I've not used it for 5 years, but it was always reliable and timely. And it was free.

Circus Circus RV Park (formerly Las Vegas/Circus Circus KOA) Review on rvparkreviews was last month. Still open different name.

 

We were there over five years ago. Was able to walk to where ever we wanted to go.

[chiefneon]

Howdy!

 

We'very stayed a Thousand Trails. Only problem was they did not have many 50 amp so we got by with 30.

Have seen a Spacecraft bunkhouse on a space at Main Street Station's RV Park.

[VegasFlyer]

The RV Park at Main Street Station is quite good for anyone who wants to be downtown, you are only two blocks from Freemont Street and there are busses going down Main Street that go up and down the strip.

 

Thier spaces should accommodate most of the bigger rigs on this board.

 

Sam's Town would not be bad, though not as favorable if you want to walk around.

 

On Blue Diamond Road and I-15, there is a very nice upscale RV Resort that caters to the high end Motorhomes.

 

Anyone who would like further info, feel free to private message and I would be happy to help out.

Well, thanks guys this helps out big time! I pass through Vegas fairly often in the summer season when I'm running commercial loads from western canada to southern az! Usually stop at the Loves in N Las Vegas overnight. This pit stop prepares me for my destination delivery location in Phoenix or Yuma the next day! The most I ever get to see of vegas is a view from the bypass hwy 515 heading south through henderson! Come to think of it...Last august when I was there, it was still 107 deg at 9pm, and 119 the next day in Phoenix! It will actually be a pleasant change to go there, find a park and kick back for a few days with a cool one and good cigar while DW gets relieved of our hard earned cash!

Thanks Bill, I figured you guys had gone to FL..Haven't seen the " Dog House" in Az now for a couple of years! We had a very strange and cool start to the winter here in Yuma (El Nino) I guess..but Feb came in 80's to 90's and saved the day! I almost stopped by last summer when I was in your neck of the woods through "The Sault" to visit, but I wasn't sure if your guests would
have been to happy to wake up in the morning to see a "53 foot trailer with Hazmat placards " all over it..I'll wait till I have a full trailer of potato chips and beer! Hope you guys have a great "Camping Season" in northern ontario this year!

[billr]

Have fun in the "cooler Vegas". Yes Fl was in the cards last few years as well as next. Then west. We hope.

 

We look Fwd to your calls or visits as you pass through the Soo. If you get a stopover let us know I'll come get ya

 

Safe travels

We stayed at Sam's Town in November for the SEMA show. The drive into town or Uber ride in the evenings was more of an inconvenience than I expected. If I can stay closer to the strip this year, I will. The campground was nice and the staff was great as well.
