Stayed here 2 years ago and is the same, I checked in inside the casino. No fees it’s still a free spot to stay. RV parking lot only had my car and 1 van. Security drove around all night, no issues. It was a good place to stay. Very quite

Report Check-In

There was only one spot left, and as we really did not need to hook up, we just parked in the big lot with lots of other rvs and vans. Nice casino. Limited hours on the buffet.

Report Check-In

As described before. They now have forms you can fill out and drop there with no need to walk into the casino to check in. water, sewer, and electric hook-up. Nice secure spot.

Report Check-In

Gravel parking lot next to parking garage. 5 water and electric sites (free) but lot can fit more than just 5 rigs. Well lit and far enough from interstate that we had a quiet night. Restrooms and free soda inside. All you can eat buffet for $20 open Thursday-Sunday

Report Check-In

Excellent spot—reviews were correct. Electric still not working and it took us checking a couple of water spigots but we found 2 that worked. Friendly staff and we won $6. Free soda, coffee, restrooms. Would stay again. Get a free players club card at the casino desk then go to the hotel to register your RV (they’ll need the players card). We used the free hookups to refill our tank after storage.

Report Check-In

Just as described we had a great night here. We slept great some distance freeway noise but it was not bad. No train noise. We dumped and filled our water before we left sign says electric is out but we didn’t need it. Lot is on the right of the parking garage.

great spot! go to the right of the parking garage and it's on the right. electricity still out (they told me and I tested it). water and sewer available. casino has 2 restaurants including a buffet. they also have free soda, coffee and ICE. when you register for players card you get free $5 free play for getting the card and free $5 for giving them your email! they did say you have to add at least $1 to the card to activate the free play. gas station isn't cheap, 3.21/ gal for regular right now and I didn't see a propane refill. they do have a garbage can right on the lot which I was very appreciative of

Report Check-In

Free, level, water and sewer but no electric. Restaurant inside that we didn't visit. 5G Verizon (25mbps down, 17.5mbps up), very strong download 4G AT&T (204mbps down, 1.10mbps up).
Would not stay again because the road noise was incessant, punctuated by loud train horns at a nearby grade crossing. I guess free is worth saving up for.

Stop for one night, you have a register your RV, car camper, van what ever your driving. You need to get a player club card it’s free as well as up to 2 days of overnight camping. The house gave my a $10 house money because I was a first timer, ended up winning $154 on a 5 cent slot machine. It was a good run. Ended up in the $14.95 all you can eat buffet, get there early buffet closes at 8 pm on Sunday. The Rv lot only had 3 RVs and there was plenty of room. I’m a car camper in a Honda Element and don’t need water or power hookups, but there is water no electricity. A security car drive around all night it was very safe and quiet. I almost didn’t stop because I didn’t want to go through the hassle of filling out paperwork. But it was well worth the time.

Report Check-In

Unfortunately the electricity is still out at the rv parking. The large printed sign saying that leads me to believe their might not be a big motivation to give out free power. Water is still on and sewer available though.

Report Check-In

Parked here overnight in my car. Had no issues, felt safe, some road traffic noise.

Report Check-In

This place is as described in other description. I got my player's card, registered and stayed with no problems. I also got gas at the Walmart 30 min away in Arkansas for $3.91.

Report Check-In

Great place to stay for a night. Unfortunately all of the electric (5 spots) in the RV parking lot is out due to a lightning strike. We spoke to the maintenance guy and he said they'll need to dig up all the lines and doesn't know when it'll be fixed however you can still use the dump and potable water. Be sure to sign up for a player's card inside the casino and fill out the form (available at the hotel lobby or in the RV lot) and drop it off (in the RV lot). The wifi also worked from the RV so that was nice since this page says there's no wifi. Great cell service (AT&T and Verizon) See photos for additional info. Loved this location, will definitely stay here again if passing by.

Report Check-In

Plenty of parking space for RVs/vans. GPS coordinates take you down a dirt road behind the hotel, which is not right (at least mine did). The RV lot is right next to the big parking garage. A few spots have water and electric hook ups. You have to go into the casino to get a players card, and then to the hotel to fill out a parking form. You are allowed to stay for 48 hours. Security patrols the parking lots so it feels nice and safe. Bathrooms and Starbucks inside the casino. Some highway noise but otherwise good and free!

Amazing place to spend the night. Safe quiet - great food inside. Highly recommend

Report Check-In

Very nice place to sleep for the night. Plenty of parking for RVs and Campers. With free hookups and free water. Max stay is 2 nights with signs posted. Only stayed a night then went inside. Won $20 on a penny slot! If it is your first time there they give for $10 of free play

RV lot with free parking. Has water and electric hookups. If I’m a smaller self sufficient vehicle, you are allowed to park in the main parking lot overnight as well. Quiet and clean location. Felt very safe. Short walk to a 24 hr diner with decent food. Casino is open with public restrooms. Also a gas station within walking distance.

Report Check-In

Felt super safe in the back corner of the casino in a dirt/gravel lot that will fit 10-12 large rigs – it’s a huge lot. There’s 4-6 power hookups I believe, we didn’t hook up but there might be more! They are also free as well.

The area is well lit and has cameras as it’s near the back side of the casino parking garage. Pack out what you packed in! – @RigSupplyCo

Report Check-In

Well lit, gravel lot beside the parking garage. Five posts with 30, 50 amp service and one 110 outlet. Water spigot(farm style) too. Went to sign in at the hotel: was told I had to get a “players card” issued to get the free site. Through the gaming area to the “rewards” desk to give my id and contact info. Now getting ads from them. No more buffets due to current COVID restrictions; now small servings at “all you can eat” for just 13US each. No vegetarian options unless you order pasta, potatoes and dinner rolls. Everybody had on a mask and lots of cleaning being done behind us. Back to the site for a good nights sleep. Many thanks to the Cherokee Nation for extending this gracious gesture to weary travelers.

Report Check-In

Exactly as described! Free electric/water hook ups for up to 14 camper/RVs in the rear of the casino. He has security, so they were absolutely no issues or concerns and nobody bothered us.

Report Check-In

Big open area with room for about 15 campers.

Report Check-In

Still awesome, ie free full hookup and excellent COVID controls inside casino. Would be 5 star except for a couple muddy spots where we parked.

Report Check-In

This location was a life savior. There was a crazy thunder and lightning storm. We simply filled out the form and were able to hook up our electricity. Clean and safe!

As mentioned previously a cheep place to stay (free) right off Interstate 40.
There is a little highway noise from the interstate but OK.
Five spots with full hook ups and perhaps additional room to share utilities.

Report Check-In

Still a good free spot to overnight. 48 hour stay limit. Form to fill out and leave in box. We arrived in the morning, maybe 10 or 11am. We were the first ones but it was full by dark with overflow. Only a couple have water hookups, seems like people may have run over them with the spots being back in. All hace electric and sewer. We shared water with our neighbor and all was well. Would stay again.

Report Check-In

Great place to stop for the night. Free RV back in sites with full utilities. There are only 5 spots in an area behind the parking Garage. We were given a form to fill out by security who came and knocked on our door about an hour after we arrived. Had a great dinner and breakfast in their restaurant, and knocked down a few beers while watching a live band. It doesn’t get any better than this. We arrived around 5 pm on a Sat., and all sites were open. We were traveling in a 34 ft and a 25 ft trailers,

Clean and quiet, off Interstate 40 stop. Full services available (not that we use them :)). Spend a quick overnight with two other large RVs.
