  • I've also stayed at the Oasis a couple times. Good place, I'd do it again.

    Depends on how close you consider "around". One of my favorite campgrounds when in the area is Valley of Fire State Park, about 70 miles northeast of the park. Some water & electric sites, bathrooms with showers, all first come. Lots of beautiful scenery, hikes, etc.

    Some photos from my visits.

    A typical hook up site:

    That would be U.S. Air Force jets -as in Nellis AFB. I would not like to hear "the gentle swoosh of the Apache" if I were an enemy - would be the last thing I hear. :)
  • We like aircraft and we like locomotives. Lovely sounds for us, reminding us of days long gone.

    We are very fortunate that we can hear the rail traffic and sometimes the air traffic at our stick-and-mortar abode.

    ...and by the way, I have had many an interesting trip in military aircraft.
  • We stayed at the KOA at Sam's Town in LV. Decent park, nice pools, kids liked it.
  • I vote for Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort. I have stayed there at least 10 times and have enjoyed each stay.
