Ten Minutes From The Strip--The Perfect Get Away!!! in Las Vegas

Put This One On Your List

Gathering a number of family members from 3 locations to meet and live together for one week in a relatively unfamiliar location can go either one of two ways - '1 - If Only We'd Known' or '2 - Couldn't Have Gone Better'. This was definitely the second. Our family flew in from two Georgia locations, via Atlanta, and the other family members drove in from Los Angeles. This was a very memorable Thanksgiving week.

To begin, finding the house was extremely easy. The neighborhood, surrounding neighborhoods and surrounding areas were better than expected and more than decent. There was not a whimper from neighboring homes during the entire stay.

In spite of relatively small lot sizes, but, only when compared to my home area, the home never felt underwhelmed for even 5 adults and 3 young children.

The heated pool was a wonderful bonus, made useful by some of us in the last few days after we were given easy instructions from the owner.

We found great comfort in the easy access to minor shopping for groceries, at Wal-Mart, early morning Starbucks on an impulse, and easy gasoline purchases nearby.

Of course, location on the airport side of Las Vegas, and just a couple of exits in total from both the airport and the Strip made frequent trips out to the touristy spots and an early morning departure extremely easy.

I'd definitely do this again.

Best of both worlds

We had a great time here. As mentioned, it is 10 minutes from the Strip, but on a corner lot in a quiet neighborhood, it feels like an oasis. It's also very convenient to the airport. As mentioned in other reviews, the backyard is beautiful and very private. Loved the palm trees! Also very close to grocery stores and restaurants. Inside, we had plenty of space to spread out. One thing to look for when renting a house is the quality of the beds--they can make or break a vacation. All the beds here were excellent. The owner, Jordan, met us when we arrived and showed us around, then called a couple of times during the week to make sure we were doing OK. One tip: when going home after a visit to the Strip, skip 215--take 15 south to Silverado Ranch Road and go east. It's much easier. See Cirque de Soleil's "Love"--it's excellent.
