Campground near Univ of Las Vegas

We are going to visit our granddaughter who is attending the Univ. of Las Vegas.. Only going to be there for a couple of nights at the most. We will be coming in on I15 from San Diego. Would like to find a nearby campground if possible
Thanks Bob

    I agree with Oasis, This park has 3 types of sites. Back in (Cheapest) Nose to tail (Slightly more) and pull through (VERY NICE)

    There are many others but OASIS is at the south end of the strip. near Las Vegas Blvd and Blue Diamond Hwy (the road over the hump to Parump) and when I was there last it was, I believe a Harrah's property and ran a shuttle to all their Casinos.. This means you need not drive to visit the strip since the shuttle will get you there no charge. Harrah's properties are all over the city.. My daughter used to work for 'em.

    Enjoy the stay.. If you have a chance catch a show or two.. The Penn & Teller is great as is the Legends show. Hint: At one show they had Matri d' seating.
    Well he took us to some decent seats but they were off to the side. Then he and I shook hands and suddenly he recalled he had some better seats (marked reserved it turns out) and he took us straight to those. FRONT ROW CENTER.

    Wonder if it had anything to do with the portrait of Andrew Jackson that was on the paper which moved from my hand to his as we shook?
  • Las Vegas university

    Start with pointing where you want to be close to.
    Bare in mind that there is MUCH more to see in Las Vegas than University.
    University of Nevada is not the best neighborhood
  • The closest to UNLV, easiest to get to, and probably the best for you is the Oasis RV Park.
