Report from Amber, February, 2009
The Range Steakhouse was very good, we were surprised! There are lots of RVs in the parking lot this time of year (February). Harrah's has a shuttle from the parking lot to the Casino so you don't have to walk. There is also an RV Park just down the road (5 Miles), where you can dump, fill water, get propane, etc. Their dump fee is only $10. There's really nothing else around, there's the Casino and that's it! The $5.95 buffet was a good value. We will stop here again.

We camped at Harrah's Ak-Chin Casino/Resort near Casa Grande Arizona on March 23, 2008- two paved parking lots and one dirt overflow. Talked to Security people and there is no problem staying overnight free - no registration necessary. We parked in the lot away from the trucks but did have the road traffic noise - no big deal. Here are the photos.

Saw your link on Nick Russell/Gypsy Journal's blog. There were from 8-12 RV's (& us) staying at Harrah's Ak-Chin Indian Casino on Feb 21 and 22. Both nights there "appeared to be an empty 5er" and no tow vehicle. [Oh well.] Mon-Thurs you can complete an info card, get an Harrah's membership plastic card on a nifty plastic-coiled "key chain?" and eat their medium-extensive lunch for $5.95...Fri, Sat, Sun the lunch reverts to $9.95.
Being out in the country (S of Phoenix) it's quiet at night. But I wondered about gambler-traffic on F,S,S (i.e. weekends). There was a fire mid-morning (Fri) in the bingo-hall (exterior-separate building) and a dozen fire-police-EMS vehicles. We joked (among ourselves) that grand-ma dropped her cigarette on her bingo card.
Not, a short in the air conditioning unit.
Plenty of room for any size RVs. Could/can handle 30-50+. Next to us were 5 Canadian "plates" having a pleasant FREE "camping party" (i.e. lawn chairs, grills, 1-wheel chair, dogs on leases, etc).
Would do it again when in the area...........but not summers.

Report from Rick and Lucky Lucy, February 2008
We have stayed -- dry camped -- at Harrah's Ak-Chin Casino in Maricopa, AZ, on several occasions. Like many other Indian casinos this one is out in the country several miles from any town. There is plenty of parking for RVs of all sizes and there are usually several in the lots. Tour buses and semi trucks also use the lots but there is room to get away from them, especially in a smaller camper. There is a large dairy operation a few miles south of the casino and if the wind is just right, which it often is, you can experience the unmistakable odor of thousands of cattle confined to a small area.
The casino buffet is nothing to write home about but it serves the purpose and the price is right. We had one meal at the steak restaurant (The Range, I think) and I would give it only a D+ for both food and service.
They had a few full pay VP machines at the $1 level but our last visit was over a year ago so those may be history by now. Harrah's is not real big on providing full pay machines.
All in all this is not a bad place to hang out for a couple days if you happen to be in the area.
