And that, for me, is the best way to visit a gambling destination.Įven better, the resort is located on 70 acres of land amid some spectacular mountain and desert scenery. Check-in at Red Rock is the same as it would be at any upscale resort you don’t have to battle your way through slot machines and blackjack tables to get your room key. Yes, there is casino gambling at the resort, but it’s not in your face (or up your nostrils). The Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa is just 10 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip, but it might as well be a world away.
