A Texas Take on Las Vegas
September 17, 2007. As the steamy Las Vegas summer gives way to the perfect temperatures of fall, winter and spring, now is the perfect time to think about luxury vacation rentals. The Dallas Morning News has a good take on the city, with alternative ideas to the Strip.
Not that there's anything wrong with the Strip. The lights, the action, the frenzied pace, and, of course, the gambling. The restaurants, the shopping and the entertainment. But for many, a rental by the Strip offers just as many opportunities. If you like to golf, for example, you don't want to be stuck among the high-rise casino-hotels.
This glitzy town is also surrounded by incredible natural beauty, from the nearby Red Rock recreation area to the Las Vegas Springs Preserve, recommended by the Morning News.
Because of the massive amounts of visitors, flights in and out of Vegas are surprisingly cheap. That makes a vacation less expensive than you might have thought. Eat at some restaurants off the Strip, and you'll save even more money. The Morning News has some great ideas for restaurants , too. According to their article, Vegas is a multicultural town, with delicious Chinese, North African and Indian food.
