Casa Blanca RV Park

If a very nice pool area or casino is not your thing then this is only good for a stopover on the way to somewhere else. We love the pool area and go every year in the heat of the summer where it's 105-120 degrees. The RV hookup area is a very old parking lot with distant views of mountains so nothing special there. Mesquite is the desert town and has a a Walmart and Smith's and quite a few independent eateries including franchises like McDonalds. The casino that shares the same name as the RV park has a upscale restaurant and a very nice cafe and an ice cream shop (I recommend the hot fudge sundae). With St. George, Utah 45 minutes northeast and Las Vegas 90 minutes southeast you have your pick of day trips.

Just wanted a pit spot between Salt Lake and Laughlin. Was planning to dry camp to the west of the casino, but opted for the full hookups instead. Turned out nice.

My wife gambled a bit and I joined her for dinner. Not a bad night.

Access to the RV park is easy, but the traffic circles at the freeway are horrible. First time through I drove over the curbing and cut off some folks in my attempt to get to the park. Did a bit better on the way out. It was nice that the casino has a lane for RV Park check-in at the main entrance, but they did not make it any bigger than necessary.

Sites are old asphalt with small loose gravel and no picnic tables. Free cable is provided at each site along with 30/50 amp electric, water, and sewer.

At the center of the RV Park is a restroom/laundry building... restrooms (key-card access) each have 2 showers and a changing area. In the same building there is a separate entrance to the laundry room (1 washer $1.50, 1 dryer $1.00, quarters only). This room also contains an ice machine and a brochure stand of local area attractions.

The resort pool (accessible by key-card gate entry by delivery entrance) was only open Fri/Sat/Sun 10am-5pm, but will be open more as the weather gets warmer. The outdoor jacuzzi is open 24/7.

Trash - there is a dumpster in the NW corner of the park that got emptied at 6am. Park quiet hours are 10pm - 8am.

We had decent cell coverage for calls, but data was not as reliable. Without a booster, we had 2 bars 4g LTE Verizon, and absolutely no data capability. Using a directional antenna on a 20' mast, we are able to get more data usage, though the VPN would drop every 1-2 hrs.
