2 nights at Gateway Luxury RV Resort

We enjoyed our stay at Gateway Luxury RV Resort a lot! The resort was very clean and pleasant, the amnesties are well maintained and easily accessible. Our casita was also very nice, the only downside was the twin beds (especially if you are 6’4”), besides that everything else was great. We would definitely stay here again, would just book a room with king size bed next time :)

Weekend Trip to Gateway Luxury RV Resort

We chose this to stay at for our last night, before packing and heading back to Vegas for our flight. There had been no reviews on HipCamp so I went to the web for reviews and was pleased enough with what I saw to book it. We were able to park our camper close to the casita. It felt great to soak in the hot tub after several days of wilderness camping. The place was incredibly clean and that bed was VERY comfortable. The people were VERY nice and welcoming. It definitely wasn't a camping experience, though that option was available to us in. We were surprised, though, that we had to go to a nearby gas station and pay to dump our grey water tank. After camping off grid, the place is very resort-like and homogenized. Depending on your preferences that may be exactly what you're looking for. The kids we saw were really enjoying the beautiful pool, corn hole and pickle ball. The dog owners had access to a fenced dog area. This was a great place as a final stopover for us after coming from remote camping in Grand-Staircase Escalante National Monument and returning to Vegas.
