As Seen in RV Park Reviews

NTRVR Received an 8.6 or “Excellent” Rating - Averaged by 49 Reviewers.

“This is a very well maintained and quiet RV Resort, with very friendly staff at check in, who allowed us to pick our site and then escorted us to it. Interior roads are all paved and big rig access was good.”

“This park is very nice with a Polynesian Theme with a lot of Palm trees, rocks & waterfalls, Thatched Gazebos in some of the sites and propane BBQ's in some sites as well. We have stayed here several times before and have enjoyed each stay.”

“The Nevada Treasure is the nicest park we have stayed in so far in our 7,500 miles of travel and long list of RV parks. The park is beautifully landscaped, and you will immediately get a "resort" feeling when you pull in. Assorted trees, flowers, and other landscaping elements provide privacy and add additional beauty to the landscape.”

Offsite Activities
Wednesday, September 19th.

On Wednesday, we have a fun filled day planned for you, starting off with a morning 13-mile scenic tour of Red Rocks Canyon National Conservation Area, concluding with an Evening in Las Vegas that includes:a buffet dinner at the Silverton Hotel and Casino, the High Roller, and luxury passenger transportation. Details below…

A "Car-Pool" (on-your-own) tour has been organized for our group to the Red Rocks Recreation Center. If you have Gold Eagle Pass, you will be able to get into the park for free. Those not having a pass will pay the tourist rate for parking and touring the visitor's center. A rally group briefing by park staff is scheduled and concluding activities at the visitor's center followed by a self guided tour through the park's scenic drive.

Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area lies in Nevada’s Mojave Desert. It’s known for geological features such as towering red sandstone peaks and the Keystone Thrust Fault, as well as Native American petroglyphs. Panoramic viewing spots dot the 13-mile Scenic Drive. The sheltered Ice Box Canyon has seasonal waterfalls. To the south, Spring Mountain Ranch State Park features historic buildings and hiking trails.

See the website at: Red Rock Canyon

2018 rally participants will get to experience the HIGH ROLLER at real high roller VIP discounted pricing. This is one of the hottest new Vegas attractions and we will make it happen for nearly 50% off. Basically it's a 2 for 1 deal. Ride with us for a top of Vegas experience at a bargain basement price. Don’t miss it, you will regret not being there. The evening's activities will include air conditioned transportation aboard a luxury passenger coach. We will stop at the Silverton Aquarium and you may shop at the Las Vegas Bass Pro Shop. The adjacent Silverton Hotel and Casino will be the location for our evening meal at the renown Seasons Buffet. After dinner we will board the coach and proceed to the LINQ, a recreation and shopping complex, where we will board the High Roller. After your 30 minute sky-high adventure, your coach will return you to the resort. This event is going to be the least expensive tour that you will experience in Las Vegas. Look for the "Las Vegas Evening (Optional)" while booking your event using the Registration OnLine software (ROL).

See the itinerary below for additional information, changes and event times.

I’ll be there too. Looking forward to my first rally and first RV Rally co-host. Will be available to anyone with “local area” questions as I’ve live in Vegas 35 years. Contact me at anytime with questions about the area. Be patient with replies as I do a lot of volunteer work in the remote areas surrounding Vegas and cell service can be spotty, even when you can see the town from a mountain top.

Rally 2018!!!!!

I am very enthusiastic about the folks that are working on our 2018 Rally Team this year and I couldn't be more appreciative and proud of their willingness and determination to make this a really great event.

As soon as we can nail down a few more numbers, gMw (George) will roll out our Registration On-Line (ROL) page. Keep checking back.

I am looking forward to a really BIG shoe! (Yes we're that old)

It’s is a 550-foot tall, 520-foot diameter giant Ferris wheel on the Las Vegas Strip, with great views of the strip.
