South Point Casino Las Vegas: Fixed Position and Documented Straight-Line Distances

From South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa, the documented straight-line distance is 2.2 miles to Silverton, 6.4 miles to Monte Carlo, 7.3 miles to Caesars, 7.5 miles to Harrah, and 11.2 miles to Horseshoe; each of those figures is straight-line. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

For this venue, the fixed point is clear even when a search uses “Las Vegas” as shorthand: South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa is in Enterprise, Nevada, at coordinates 36.011426, -115.1753. Publicly published reference sources describe it as a large resort property, but venue figures such as machine counts, room totals, and floor area describe a documented point in time and can change when a property is rebuilt, expanded, or reconfigured.

Where the venue is fixed on the map

South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa is documented in Enterprise, Nevada. Its published coordinates, 36.011426 and -115.1753, place it in southern Nevada, and the longitude shows it west of the Prime Meridian while the latitude places it north of the Equator.

The keyword uses “Las Vegas,” but this article sticks to the documented municipal location, which is Enterprise. That distinction matters because place names in everyday use do not always match the city field attached to a property record.

One location detail is also documented for an internal facility within the broader property: the bowling-related facility referenced in publicly published sources is on the second floor of the Priefert Pavilion and is separate from the resort’s original bowling alley. That is a within-property placement note, not a road access instruction.

Documented venue scale at that location

As a published snapshot, the property is associated with 2,400 slot machines, 60 table games, and 2,163 hotel rooms. The opening date listed in publicly published reference sources is December 22, 2005, and the documented owner is Michael Gaughan.

Those figures help explain physical scale, not current availability. Ownership, branding, room inventory, and gaming floor layout can all change over time, so readers should treat them as historical or reference figures rather than as a live operations feed.

Documented straight-line distances from this venue

The table below reproduces every venue-to-reference pairing available for this property. Every mileage figure shown is a great-circle measurement, which means a straight line between coordinates rather than a route you can drive.

Why straight-line distance and real travel differ

A great-circle figure is a map geometry measurement, not a route. Real travel must follow the available road network, so even a short straight-line separation can turn into a longer road path when streets do not run directly between origin and destination.

That gap grows for familiar reasons: terrain can force detours, water can limit crossing points, and the road grid can bend around developed land or protected areas. Crossing from one state into another can also add routing constraints because the practical road connection may not follow the shortest geometric line.

For that reason, the straight-line table is best used for relative orientation rather than trip planning. If you need a real route from your own starting point, use the venue coordinates with a current mapping service and let that service calculate the road path from where you are.

How to read the nearby and far-away references

The shortest documented pair in this set is Silverton at 2.2 straight-line miles, followed by Monte Carlo at 6.4, Bourbon Street at 7.2, Caesars at 7.3, and Harrah at 7.5. Those figures show that the venue sits within a dense regional cluster of other named reference points, even though each real road trip between them will be longer than the straight-line number shown here.

At the other end of the table, the largest documented pair is Okada at 7378.3 straight-line miles. Between those extremes, the matrix also includes many cross-country references such as Chicago at 1527.5, Toronto at 1954.5, Washington DC at 2087.2, and NYC at 2233.3 straight-line miles.

Because only listed pairs can be stated, this article does not infer any missing distances. If the place you care about is not one of the labels in the table, the safe reading is that this article can identify the venue’s fixed position in Enterprise, Nevada, but cannot measure that unlisted pair for you.

What to confirm before you go

Before setting out, confirm the live items that a fixed-position article cannot lock down. That includes the route your mapping service chooses, current access conditions, parking arrangements, any on-site venue changes, and the property’s present operating details.

The authoritative current answers live on the property’s own contact and visitor information channels and on current map-routing tools. If you are comparing this property with another destination, use the exact venue name and the documented coordinates to avoid mixing up similarly named places or broader “Las Vegas” search results with the Enterprise location listed here.

FAQ

Is South Point Casino Las Vegas in Las Vegas or Enterprise?

The documented city for South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa is Enterprise, Nevada. Many searches use “Las Vegas” as a regional label, but this article uses the published city field attached to the property record. For location checking, the fixed reference is the venue coordinate pair 36.011426, -115.1753 rather than a shorthand metro-area name.

Can I use the mileage in this article as driving distance?

No. Every mileage figure here is explicitly a straight-line, great-circle measurement between coordinates. Road mileage is always longer, and the difference depends on the route network, detours, and local geography. For a real trip, use the venue name or coordinates in a current mapping tool and check the route it returns on the day you travel.

Does this article tell me how far the venue is from my location?

Only if your starting point matches one of the reference labels already listed in the distance table. Otherwise, this article cannot measure that pair. What it can give you is the venue’s fixed location in Enterprise, Nevada, plus a broad comparison set of documented straight-line distances that help you place it geographically before you run your own route from your exact origin.
