Las Vegas

We will be traveling through Las Vegas on or around June 16 2021. It will most likely be hot that time of year. Do any of the Casinos have electrical hookups to run my AC and walking distance to the strip. This is only a one night stay .

    Not quite the strip.


    I think I covered that, just giving that option. As to security downtown...I stayed at Main Street Station during New Years just a couple years ago. Walked back and forth many times...never a problem but I do agree, several suspect people walking about.

  • After living there for nearly 4 years and making a few visits since, there is no way we would stay at an unsecured RV campground/park in LV.

    Have they increased security? We stayed there a few years back and a lot of sketchy people wandering thru.

    Circus Circus vs Sam's Town. Circus Circus: 3/5 stars. Sam's Town: 5/5 stars. Uber/Lyft if you need to go further than you want to walk.

    Circus Circus is a parking lot atmosphere. Sam's Town is more lush.
  • We stay at the KOA at the off-strip Sam's Town Casino. Free tour bus goes to the strip or downtown about every hour but not all night.
  • I avoid LV when possible and RVing but particularly when it’s hot. Here’s a website with some suggestions but you’ll be packed like a sardine. Watch for voltage drops too. An autoformer is a good idea.

  • Circus Circus has camping spots. Not much shade but on strip.
