LBT in Vegas FEB '08

[slikchik10 85]

I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble, but has anyone mentioned that mid to late Jan. is when Vegas has some major conventions and room rates are $$$$$ (group or not?). My hubby has a couple of conventions there a year and we go up (we're in Cali) usually during Feb instead of Jan because he's learned when a good time to go is. There is the Prez. day weekend possibility isn't there?

Just thought I'd mention LasVegasAdvisor.com as a great resource for all of this as well as other sites mentioned so far. Like I said, my hubby is very involved with stuff in Vegas and he's a penny pincher too, so when I mentioned the date for this being Jan...well, he looked like this... So, just my input to this adventure.

I've missed this thread until now. I'm a travel agent and would be happy to help if you still need any help.

You might also consider Lake Las Vegas. It's about 20 minutes off the strip (depending on traffic) and a whole 'nother world. It's a pretty incredible, relaxing place, and you can get to the strip pretty easily for shows, etc. See The Official Home Page of Lake Las Vegas Resort for more info..

If you look at my earlier post where I quote room rates, that is Pres Day wknd vs. MLK weekend....and February is higher.
