Report from J.R., September 27, 2009
Exit I-17 at exit 289, go east,
through second roundabout, parking lot on right. Lot is semi level, walking
distance to casino but it is a long walk up hill. Distant Drums RV park is
across the freeway and I have no information about it. Food: Johnny Rocket
Grill. Good food, fair price, great service. Kids entertainment: Bowling
alley, video game room and kids play room, ala Chucky Cheese. Stayed one
night in a 5th wheel. Would stay again.

I didn't realize that Cliff
Castle has a full-hookup RV park. I just received an email from casino
management with the following information, and note the RV park website in
the table above:
"Our RV Park, Distant Drums, is located just over the
interstate from us, and we have a free 24-hour shuttle to the casino from
the park."
This appears to be a very "family
friendly" location for casino camping. In reviewing this casino and RV
park I noticed there are many nearby attractions; state and national parks,
historic sites, etc. and the casino features a Kids Quest, a bowling alley
and a large arcade.

Update on Cliff Castle Casino in Camp Verde, AZ Spent one
night 12/13/07. As stated, plenty of parking and free shuttle.
We walked from the lot to the casino - we took the shuttle back. There
were no direct sidewalks from the lower lot to the casino which was just
above it. Probably about 500 yards away. You had to walk all the
way back to the main entrance, and walk up there, which did not have a full
sidewalk. They have the number for the shuttle posted in the lower
lot, and gladly picked you up. Long story short - my suggestion to
potential walkers... take the complimentary shuttle.

I can confirm
that overnight RV parking is allowed at Cliff Castle. Visit date:
5/28/2007 When we visited there were about six rigs here plus
several 18- wheelers. The lower lot is the RV parking area -- don't go to
the upper lot by the casino! Instead, after exiting I-17, go through
the rotary (2nd right) and then a hundred feet past you'll see the turn-
in for the lower parking lot. There was plenty of space for RVs when we
visited.
No amenities in
the parking area, but there are signs everywhere giving a phone # to call to
get a complimentary shuttle pickup to the casino. We used this service
several times and the drivers were friendly and helpful.
The casino has
four restaurants including a Johnny Rockets hamburger joint, a 20-lane
bowling alley, a video game room, and a kids' play area.
