Casino Camping

We have stayed at a few Casino campgrounds on our travels. They are either free or very reasonable. Of course the idea is to spend big bucks inside. But since I don't gamble and Vel usually does well when she gambles, I think we do pretty good all in all. The pictures above are at Firelake Casino in Shawnee OK. The spaces where close together, but we had a nice landscaped creek area behind us.

Lady Luck Casino in Caruthersville MO had a nice campground. It was along the Mississippi River and we had to drive through the flood wall to get to it. So, I don't think we would want to be there if the river was on the high side. Our rig would turn into a house boat and I'm sure it would sink!

The Hollywood Casino in Tunica County MS had a very nice campground. We had a large field next to us for the dogs to run.  There are about 9 casinos in the area and 3 campgrounds. We only stopped at a few of the casinos, they are within probably 20 miles of each other and about 45 min from Memphis.So, I'm sure it's a busy place on weekends.

They don't have any casinos in Texas, but a soon as you leave the state, like through OK or LA you see a casino right away! How interesting!-M
