Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort

Adult Pool and Putt Putt

Written By Dale Libby

I was bitten by the RV bug at a very early age. The day my dad brought home that 12′ pull behind camper my world changed. Tent camping was fine but this rig had running water, toilet, shower, beds and a small stovetop. Times have changed but my love for RVing never dieded.

RV Park Review – Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort – Las Vegas, Nevada

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Entrance To Oasis RV Resort – Tight turn into the property.

As they say in their information, “An Ideal location minutes from the famous Las Vegas strip”. This was our second stay, we had a weekly rate which was good but the monthly is the best value. The resort in my mind is a vacation location, you could never leave the park and be very happy.

A) Site Quality: ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️/5

All the sites are paved concrete pads with ample seating areas. All but the standard sites have picnic tables. I would say about 80% of the deluxe sites have a grassy area, all other category sites above that have a grassy area. We have stayed in the Premium and Premium Plus sites. I like to have a bit of grass and be close to the pool and other amenities. Luckily I grabbed a great deal on a Premium Plus back in site this time and I must admit we loved it. The rig was backed up to the pool area, and it was nice seeing all that green. The sites were oversized with plenty of room for the truck and one more car if need be. Sites 302 – 308 have a large shaded sitting area at the rear of the sites. All of the sites have 20/30/50 amp, water, sewer, and cable. 

Insights

  • There are over 900 sites in this park. I would say the percentage of back in vs pull through is about 50/50%. There seems to be ample room to jack your rig into the back in’s. You can spread out in every site with the exception of the standard and super savers. A note on the Super Savers, they are back in’s and you on the west side of the property up against 1-15. There are a number of long stays in these slots.
  • The concrete pads on a number of the pull-through sites may give a longer rig some fits with leveling. They like to tip the exit or entry to the pad down leaving you with your back or front jacks needing blocks. This does not seem to be an issue throughout the park, but just a heads up. 
  • Sites 300-308, 400-413, 672-675 and 1-15 back up to a grove of pines tree giving you some great shade on those hot summer days.
  • The Standard sites in the park do seem to be filled with long term visitors to Vegas.  
B) Facilities: ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️/5 

You have 6 Laundry, Restroom, Shower and recycle bin buildings located conveniently in the park. They are very spacious and well cared for. The machines are in perfect working order and there are numerous in each of the facilities. 

C) Amenities: ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️/5 

Well, let’s run them down, restaurant, fully stocked convenience store, adult pool and hot tub, family pool and beach, exercise room, 18-hole natural greens putting course, horseshoe pits, bocci ball court, security guards, propane, business services, and good wi-fi. Note on the wi-fi, you have over 900 sites and more than likely twice the users, it was slow but usable. Cell service is good in the area, however, we use Verizon and needed our booster to give us full strength for streaming.

D) Location: ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️/5 

You could not be in a better location to explore the Las Vegas Strip. You are a short 15 drive from downtown, but be aware, the traffic in Vegas will slow you down. A good option from the resort would be Uber/Lyft or Taxi. The Casino’s are now charging for parking so you might find that public transportation would be that same as paying to park at the various Casino’s. The Silverton Casino complex is just across the highway with free parking if you need a quick casino fix. The food, grocery and shopping options are endless and mins away. I do like to give shout outs to restaurants but there are too many to mention for Vegas. 

However, I will recommend one for a quick meal. We arrived rather late and had some tire issues to deal with as we arrived. A pizza was in order to fill the pie whole. I can highly recommend Pizza My Dear Southeast location. They deliver right to your site and the pies are excellent.

E) Paw – Friendliness – 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾/5

Zoey gave this park, a big paws up approval. They have a number of convenient dog walking areas and a set of 6 runs to unleash your dog to relieve themselves. Zoey and I like to take a good 2 to 3 miles morning walk. Many of the parks we stay in that is not a viable option. You can find a way here by circling the park a couple of times. I’d like to see a few more garbage cans around to dispose of poop bags for the occasional off gated run business stop. 

Wanderers Overall Rating:  ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️/5 

 

Wanderers Take:

We have not visited other RV parks in the area, so this is our view from visiting this park twice in the last two years. Is this the best choice for a few days or week stay in Vegas, we would say yes based on our two stays. You are in a major metro or city environment. This typically has its own set of problems with security, noise, green space, etc. This park has none of those issues. It truly is an Oasis in the middle of the desert. Yes, you will be getting a bit of highway noise but depending on which side of the park you are on, we prefer the east side the noise will be minimal. 

Never Leave

I mentioned above that you could come to the park with the family and never leave. You will be very comfortable at your site with space between you and your neighbor. The main building offers a clubhouse, workout facility, and a restaurant. If the park does not satisfy the itch, the lights and thrills of Vegas are minutes away. There is something for everyone a short hop or day trip away. Head to Red Rock Canyon, Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, or Death Valley. 

Final Look

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this resort park. The pricing is pretty competitive for this type of site. Look for lower prices during the weekdays, weekly or monthly rates are the best value. The cable is adequate, but who’s watching TV in Vegas, the sites and sounds are just down the road. The Wifi as I mentioned is being shared by over 900 sites. It is slow at times and not a good option if you want to stream. The cell coverage is good, not great in the area. We found that our Verizon service was two to three bars. When we hooked up the WeBoost that changed to a full 5 bars with very good streaming capabilities. 

We would absolutely stay here again when we are back in Vegas.  

 

 

Previous Tips & Upgrades

Truma AquaGO Comfort Water Heater

Truma AquaGO Comfort Water Heater

We decided to invest in our 310GK-R and upgrade the Hot Water Heater. We were tired of the rotten egg smell regardless of the aluminum or magnesium anode rods or what I did to clean the tank out. Our Suburban Water heater was working fine, but it was time for a change. Long hot showers on city water and conservation while boondocking was the priority to make this move.

Keeping A RV Cool In Extreme Heat

Keeping A RV Cool In Extreme Heat

The easy fix would be to find that perfect site. The one that has plenty of shade with your nose facing west and your butt facing east. However, that is a fantasy in today’s world when it comes to finding a site. You do not always have the intel to understand what your getting into or the resort randomly places you on the property. Awnings are great and provide some needed shade.   If you plan to step away from the rig for any length of time you will not want to leave them extended.

Power Make Over

Power Make Over

The first order of business once we had decided on the Solutiude 310GK-R was the batteries. After researching battery types, solar compatibility, and recommendation from other RVers we landed on Battle Born Ion Lithium. Battle Born batteries can provide you with two to three times more power than a lead-acid battery which allows you to stay off the grid longer without having to hassle with a noisy generator. Battle Born Batteries are also capable of being charged up to five times faster than a standard lead-acid battery. Now we can put our battery anxieties to rest and finally focus on our next RV adventure.

SoftStart Install

I’ve joined the club, SoftStart club that is. We will be headed to Canada this summer and I knew we will be facing a number of 30amp sites on our journey. We wanted to be sure we had both our AC units available during our stay. After watching a number of YouTube videos describing the installation and how they worked, I was sold.

Drawer Dividers

Drawer Dividers

The age-old problem in most kitchens that calls for dividers in the drawers to keep your stuff organized. No one likes to reach into a drawer only to find that you have to dig to the bottom to find what you need. On an RV this can be particularly frustrating as the “Stuff” gets put into the rough road blender and scattered in the drawers.

Traveling With Dogs

Traveling With Dogs

Traveling with your pets and in our case Zoey a 75 lb. Yellow Labrador was one of the primary reasons we wanted an RV. Boarding Zoey every time we wanted to take a vacation or just day trip or two was just not working. Once we committed to the RV lifestyle we learned rather quickly that this would call for some advance planning. Our new challenge would be preparing for a month or longer trips. We have put together a shortlist of some tips and suggestions we have for traveling with your dog, big or small. This certainly is not a definitive list and we would love to hear from you regarding your preparation. So let’s get started with some of the basics

Soaring Diesel fuel prices have forced us to reevaluate our travel during the summer months. We had a rather ambitious itinerary that would take us from Nashville to Jasper, Canada. This featured numerous National Parks and sites along the way and covered almost 6,000 miles. We scraped that after a year of planning and focused on local short hops.

MORryde IS Upgrade

MORryde IS Upgrade

Five plus years of OEM suspension on our Open Range Roamer tested every inch of that RV. Many times described as an earthquake happening on wheels, we can attest to that. We took painstaking efforts to tie down, brace, or lock in items we thought would be displaced. Trip after trip we would find something ajar, broken, or lying on the floor. My first fix on the old rig was to replace the suspension with the MORryde SRE 4000 suspension system. That helped a bit but I knew there was another answer.
