Hi all
There is not a lot of mention of these two places. Are the hotels with
them are any good. The data base seems to reflect reasonable games and
some cb. Is there not a lot of talk about these places because they
are so far out. However, lot of people like Red rock. I believe it's
not real far from Rampart. Also, are these big places or smaller
hotels? What do they compare to; Orleans, Santa fe or more like Casino
Royale?
Just wondering...
Cheers...Jeep
The Rampart has a Marriott connected to it. It is a total resort.
The Cannery has about 150 rooms. I stayed there when it opened and considered it to be fine; comparable to the Orleans.

Interestingly, I was recently discussing with my wife which casino we would select if we
could chose only one. We both settled on the Rampart. It is connected to a beautiful J. W.
Marriott hotel and resort and, as noted, the video poker inventory is stronger than most.
The staff is friendly and the nightly piano bar performers can be heard just about
anywhere in the casino.
We travel from Virginia, so the hotel is important to us. Each Rampart room is large, plush,
and equipped with a whirlpool tub and a "rainforest" shower. We generally have to pay the
casino rate but consider half-off a good value. Getting away from the Strip also has its
advantages, especially since Summerlin is an exceptionally nice community.
I would say that the casino caters more to locals than out-of-towners so a car rental is
usually necessary. The only real competitor for "best overall casino experience" for us
would be Harrah's in Lake Tahoe, but the gaming there falls far short of the Rampart.

Some may want to avoid the Rampart this week. We just returned from there. There is a VERY rowdy group of conventioneers there. Usually, Sunday nights are very quiet. We almost left because of all the a**holes.

The hotel is the top of the line, J. W. Marriott, and that's why it is expensive vs a typical
Marriott. It will be very busy until next Monday because of the PGA tournament at the two
nearby TPC courses this week.

Thanks to everyone for all the info. When I do Vegas I always get a
rent a ride. (Dollar) Off the strip is ok with me. All sounds nice
and I will look over both the next time I visit Vegas. Was
considering going for rodeo in Dec. Somewhere in my mail I have a
ticket offer.
Thanks again...Jeep
