This video gives you a look inside the lavish Rampart Casino in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas.

As I started to video the ceiling in the main part of the casino I was told to discontinue by a floor person, but I did continue in another part of the casino, and in non-restricted areas.

Every casino has its own rules regarding videos and still photographs. What I find interesting is the huge Strip casinos don't seem to mind at all. The small places, and especially the rinky-dink holes in the wall with a few dozen slot machines however, seem to have the most restrictive policies.

The Rampart was originally conceived to attract the well to do foreign golf crowd, but that attempt failed, and since then the property has undergone several ownership and concept changes.

The Rampart is now a very upscale local's casino and also attracts visitors who want Strip amenities, in an off Strip location.

Here's the link to another Rampart video that shows the exterior of this beautiful property.
