Oasis was a hotel and casino located on 26 acres (11 ha) of land at 897 West Mesquite Boulevard in Mesquite, Nevada, adjacent to Interstate 15.[1][2][3]

It began as the Western Village Truck Stop in the 1960s. William "Si" Redd purchased it in 1976 and renamed it five years later as Peppermill's Western Village. Until 1990, it was the only casino in Mesquite. It was renamed Si Redd's Oasis in 1993, later shortened to simply Oasis.

In 2001, Redd sold the Oasis to Randy Black Sr. and Black Gaming. Portions of the Oasis were closed in December 2008, due to financial losses. The Oasis' casino was closed in 2010, although the hotel was still used for overflow guests at Black Gaming's other Mesquite casinos. The Oasis was demolished in 2013.
