Theoretically what I would do if I didn't want to gamble is get the MGM credit card (for free parking), rent a car, and stay off strip
You can also book CET stays via the Wyndham Website and pay in Wyndham points.
Wyndham doesn't charge resort fees on rooms at Wyndham hotels paid in points but it appears they do charge RF if staying in Vegas.
MY CET rates are low enough that it's not worth using Wyndham points to pay
