My parents stayed in a local RV spot a couple montha bavk. Got their genterators ripped off and some other stuff. The generators were locked with a big cable and setting in a rack attached tobthe rear of the 5th wheen a:nd the thieves used bolt cutters. Not sure i would stay in a tent. I only traveled 500 miles to get there when i attended the rally. It was pretty dead. Id be bumbed if I traveled as far as ubare going to
Basically, all the summer vacation slots at work were taken by people senior to me, so no Sturgis, no Laconia. Ive already done Daytona, don't care to go back. That left this rally, and I figured since it is known nationally, it would be pretty good. Plus, I planned on seeing the grand canyon on the way and also stopping in Vegas for a couple of days.

it easy for me, i live here in mohave valley, about 16 miles from laughlin. there is a casino here in mohave valley that has rv hook ups and parking, spirit mountain is what its called. might want to call them. but yeah dvis camp grounds on this side of the river is the only camp grounds i can think of. most people get a room at one of the casinos, which they charge a small fortune for. it not a bad run, plenty of people show up, vendors and ofcourse the casinos. i agree with slhanks4, go once and that might be it, but then you did it.

It's the ride, not the destination. Basically Laughlin is a shythole. As you know there are a lot a beautiful places to ride in for a couple of weeks. I don't know how deep inaharta Texas you are but that's a good centralized location. Opinions vary.

If you are going to be in the area anyway, might as well check out the River Run and get it off the "to do" list. There is a campground across from the Riverside Casino, but it is booked months ahead. There is a campground on the river just north of Bullhead, but it is usually full during Laughlin River Run. Past few years there has always been rooms available at the casinos. As most said, once you been......
I went almost every year, even the year of the shooting, but it has declined in the amount of vendors, attractions, events, etc.
I skipped it 4 years in a row and then went last year just to buy a Windvest shield for my glide and wanted to see the shield and look it over before buying. From riding around, didn't look like I missed much from the previous 4 years.
