RV Camping at Casinos

[@rvamericayall]

Hey y'all! Happy Sunday!! Have you RV camped at a casino before? How has it worked out for you? Do you have favorite casino RV stops? Please share them in the comments. Thanks for watching!

[@karensevern328]

We love casino camping while traveling. They are well lit and security is amazing.

[@rvamericayall]

💯

[@jeffproctor1273]

I’m an OTR truck driver and I stay at Casinos because they have security, showers, and food.

[@rvamericayall]

Very good point! Thanks 😊

[@craftytraveler9238]

I did route 66 from Mid California to Illinois in 2023. It took me a month because I wanted to stop and see lots of attractions, and didn't see them all. There is a route 66 book that lists lots of them.

[@rickbaxter3919]

Please put the camera on the road more often,we don’t need to see you to hear you.

[@crossroadsrvtravels]

Wow Choctaw is very nice! We need to do it sometime. Love your jacket, Stacie! Thanks for sharing

[@koalabear6722]

Wonderful video! Great information . Also, especially if you win! Beautiful RV and jeep! Happy Camping 😊

[@billfargo7911]

We’ve stayed at casinos on a couple of occasions. We have one we’ve been to a couple of times as a destination. We don’t gamble but the area it’s in is one of favorite places in the state.

[@rvamericayall]

That’s really cool, it’s not about the gambling for us as well!

[@HUGS2U]

Looks like you found a couple great campgrounds to stay at. Surprise meetings with friends is always special and next time your friends don't tell you where they're going to be, you should be suspicious that they're planning another surprise meeting. Hope the weather is good in Texas for you.

35.00 a night !! Awesome ❤❤❤❤

[@charlie88]

A great video! Thanks for posting!

[@DeniseVajdak]

I always enjoy your trouble videos because y’all give a really good overview of the parks and the area and the history behind some of it. Safe travels and I hope to catch up to y’all Sometime during your Texas stay

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks Denise, hopefully we get to see ya this year! 😊

[@diannewelch8380]

Aww, Route 66 is on my bucket list! Would love to get a couple girlfriends in a convertable with the radio on and top down!! 😃🤗

[@dkuhlman2282]

I’ve stayed at Downstream on our way to and from Wisconsin and never paid for the overnight either time , on the way up or back to home (Texas) all within two weeks. You do need to visit the gift store in the casino to let them know which spot you’re parked at and they’ll give the “Q” card and the free night stay. Water and electric only, but great for a one nights stay. Easy on and off the interstate.

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for the info!

[@williamsmotorhome9408]

We stayed there in September on our trip from St Louis back to Texas. Clean, Safe and good power. They were really friendly in the store.

[@1hasbeen531]

We stayed a few nights at the Choctaw facility while having warranty work done on our Sundowner at the factory north of there in Coleman. It was KOA at that time, and it was spotless.

[@cross9494]

Thanks for the info!!!

[@WILDEBILL308]

I don't know if you saw it when in the Downstream Casino but in the restaurant/bar the beer mugs filled from the bottom. Have done several rally's at Durant.

[@rdrose61]

Hey Y"all... good episode. Stayed at both. Downstream is particularly useful. Seems to be a natural stopping point for us. With the club free night, we always visit their restaurant (buffet). Downstream has a small herd of buffalo you can see on the entrance road from the convenience store to the casino 😂. Always seem to slip a casino overnight on our travels including just north of Missoula (8 free electric spots at Grey Wolf Peak Casino) on our Glacier trip. The other Route 66 casino you mentioned, was probably the one on I-44 west of Albuquerque. We have stayed there as well but prefer the Sky City Casino a little further west (very very in expensive, look for the billboards on I-44 with advertised special prices and mention at check in). Another natural stopping point. Have fun... Richard & Teresa

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for the extra tips! The buffet was really good & well priced! 😊

[@randyconeley5790]

Another great video, keep heading south the weather is warm and sunny south of houston, safe travel guys

[@rvamericayall]

We are here now and loving it! Thanks 😊

[@CliffordMandelt]

Ive stayed many nights at the first casino they have a bus to pick you up and take you to the casino great for truck driver's

[@garykrissteiner1004]

Our daughter lives just outside of Prior Lake, but we have not been able to book a site in that casino because they have always been full when we are in the Minneapolis area. We do like to stay in casinos on travel days, though.

[@mikef2004]

Stay at the Durant Choctaw RV park all the time when we go to shows. Was just there a few weeks ago for Laney Wilson. The only issue I have with the park is they have permanent tables on the passenger side that are in the way of the front passenger slide out and your entry door as well, so if you have a larger rig you can not pull through with your tow vehicle. Winstar on I35 has the best RV resort and it is a Good Sam. First night is free if it is your first stay if you sign up for a Winstar Club card. Courtesy shuttles as well. One thing to note if there is a popular performer at one of the venues, rates for spaces can go up. We paid $100+ /nite for Laney Wilson in Choctaw.

[@allanwarmflash4440]

the sights are great and the staff is very friendly

[@rvamericayall]

Yep 👍🏻

[@joannedavis7346]

Have never stayed at a casino…might have to give it a try! Thanks for the info!

[@rvamericayall]

You’re welcome ☺️

[@kayeasterling5774]

Enjoyed the experience and looks to be a good changeable stop for travelers. Always enjoy visiting a Casino. Thanks for sharing and looking forward for y'all being back in Texas. Back Home. Safe Travels Love Y'all Grammy Kay

[@estherfriel7790]

Enjoyed watching yall's traveling video😊

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks 😊

[@scottgreene7986]

Depending which parking lot you stay in that casino west of Joplin you are either staying in Missouri or Kansas. While the casino is in Oklahoma

[@teresasprouse1097]

I have that same too shirt, got it at crazy horse.

[@brockpratt8459]

We live in Durant Oklahoma hope you had a good time

[@jillpeters183]

On I-40 from Flagstaff back home to Houston. Stayed at a cute campground on Route 66 in Flagstaff. Woody Mountain campground. Highly recommend!

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for the recommendation! 😊

[@joemiles6917]

Rver TV just did route 66 this last summer. Russ has a van converted into a rv. Check him out. He hangs out in Quartsite in the winter.

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for the info! 😊

[@bettybanfield5121]

We heard about Scott and Deb's little trick up their sleeves. Glad they were able to pull it off. ha

[@rvamericayall]

It was a great surprise 😳

[@allanwarmflash4440]

we enjoy this park a lot

[@rvamericayall]

We did too! 😊

[@BenNstyle]

We love stopping at casinos that have RV overnight parking accommodations too.

[@rvamericayall]

They are really growing on us! 😊

[@carolthiele190]

I’ve camp at a casino in Montana that had electricity. It was a nice small casino that was first come. I bought lunch there and gambled for 1 hour and won 60.00. I’m not much of a gambler but that was a requirement to camp free.

[@rvamericayall]

You left with money, even better!

[@stephenpolos1689]

Good video 😊 safe travels

[@gsp49]

There's good free campsites in national forest, just north of Biloxi, and all the casinos there.

[@TMPM2021]

There is a small road you drive down on the way to the casino that goes to the Tri-Point be in 3 states at once.

[@kathyjoslin1361]

We use to stay at the Black Diamond RV Park in Shreveport which was only $35.00 a night. They have since closed.

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for letting us know, that’s a shame they closed it!

[@putheflamesoutyahoo1503]

curious how much per mile or day it costs to drive a rv and live in. Including depreciation. Would hotel perks be much better? Or maybe we should have a few food stops and put EVERYONE in a rv ....kind of like used all that concrete in opposite way

[@steve-y1h]

at 15 minutes in that use to be the worlds biggest McDonald's

[@rvamericayall]

Cool 😎

[@joannedavis7346]

Would love to do a Route 66 trip…Happy travels to you🙏🏻🤗💜

It definitely would be nice 👍🏻

we had a lot of fun on rt 66 we can talk about it this winter

[@rvamericayall]

Sounds great, see ya soon!

[@HetteshWorld]

We like to stay under 250 miles sometimes it doesn't work out that way. We have stayed in a few casinos free and paid lots. We have utilized some of the Love's RV stops. Amelia (cat) sleeps pretty much on travel days. Who don't like free. Love route 66 especially some of the old sections. We love travel days that are dry and cool. Love meeting friends on the road especially when it's unplanned. Thanks for sharing you two.

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for sharing your journey, sounds very familiar! Safe travels & we hope to see y’all on the road someday soon! ❤️

[@HetteshWorld]

@@rvamericayall we are both in Texas. We are here till March. Currently El Paso. In Nov we will head to the Big Bend area. After Xmas Weslaco.

[@dolanbrown4216]

We recently stayed at Pearl River RV Park across the street from the Casino on the Choctaw Indian Reservation just outside Philadelphia Mississippi. 44 FHU concert sites with gravel streets, I think the rate was app. $60. Very quite. We did not visit the casino. There was also a huge parking lot at the casino where we saw some RV Boondocking and some 18 wheelers. Philadelphia Mississippi is the hometown of Marty Stuart.

[@me98gt]

It’s funny Choctaw Durant will comp me a hotel room but won’t do the RV park. But it was a KOA last time we stayed

[@rvamericayall]

Yep, that might be different now! 🤷‍♂️

[@safepetproducts]

At Downstream, they do have electric hookups in the Kansas part of the parking lot, just not water.

[@rvamericayall]

OK, thanks for the input, we couldn’t see that from the road!

[@lisadarington6835]

You should check out seven feathers in canyonville Oregon, it's a casino with rv parking. We have stayed there in the past, it also has a shuttle, and nearby gas station

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for the tip, possibly next year! 😊

[@lisadarington6835]

@rvamericayall your welcome, we used to go yearly or sometimes up 4 times in a year. If you do decide to go go to the players club card area in the casino and sign up for their club card, it has discounts on all kinds of things, and if you gamble, those rewards add up quicker. But we found a lot more fun just exploring the area and occasionally a bit of gambling. There rv places have full hook up with 30 amp or 50 amp hook ups, plus a place for laundry, restrooms complete with shower. And they offer a shuttle service too, but I loved the fact that this casino is in the mountains.

[@rvamericayall]

@lisadarington6835 wow 🤩 this sounds really good!

[@industrialexitstrategist2022]

Record the rt 66!! Dont forget to see the Blue Whale on Rt 66!!

We live close to there so been to casino but never RV. That used to also be Passport America so can get a few nights half off. For OTR drivers Buffalo Run close to there is also good but not much for RVs

[@Darnabymom]

Apparently true Oklahomans call it “Doo rant”. I think you pronounced it correctly, without overemphasizing the “doo” part the way the locals do. 😉🤭

[@rvamericayall]

Glad for that! 😊

we have also done the Choctaw casino

[@akgobears]

Living on the west coast and traveling to Indiana to visit relatives, we always make use of casinos for overnite stays while traveling on the road...They are one of our go to's for sure along with COE campgrounds...Free parking, usually descent food if desired, and sometimes some pretty good free entertainment can be had when casino camping....We do the exact same thing when visiting the kids in Oregon...We casino camp going to Portland from the bay area, and then down the Oregon coast to visit more relatives and stay at more casinos...Two more casino stops in Calif. on Hwy 101 before we make it home...I dont gamble much as its the wifes thing...I head to the sports bar if available...Needless to say, we have more casino cards to our names than the Pope got prayers....I will not pay any casino just to stay in a parking lot....I have dumped a couple different locations we used to use for that reason....Hey, we are already spending money in your place, i aint paying to park there on top of that period...You folks stayed at casinos with RV parks, we usually stay at those that dont unless we need showers...Travel safe, be well...

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for your story with casinos & love the comment about the pope! 🤣

[@darrells1806]

Casino camping is certainly different west of the Mississippi River. Eastern US not so much and the ones that available are not easily accessible or convenient while traveling the interstates.

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for that tip, we haven’t noticed that yet!
