Casino Camper Report, October 2008

This casino is owned by Harrah's, and was previously a Caesars casino. Harrah's has rebranded it as a Horseshoe. We visited for a 2 night stay as we traveled south with the geese. Here are the basics:
 
RV Parking is in a large, well lit area with long parking spaces reserved for RVs and trucks with signs posted to this effect. Security will ask how many days you plan to stay when you arrive, a few days is fine, and they patrol the lot frequently day and night.
 
The lot has a slight slope, but we didn't feel the need to level out. Noise is moderate, with many trucks frequenting the lot but here's a tip: There are shorter spaces on the Northwest side of the lot, too short for a truck with trailer. A motorhome up to 45' will fit if you drop the toad, which we did. This gives you some separation from the trucks.
 
Be aware that it's a LONG walk to the casino. I'd estimate a minimum of 1/4 mile. Inside they have a couple of moving sidewalks to help, but it's still a hike.
 
Restaurants and retail area are very nicely done. We only ate at one place, the Legend's sports bar and grill. Casino itself is large, but spread out among 4 decks of a dockside riverboat, so there's lots of up and down escalators if you want to check it all out. To me, it had a slightly cramped feeling. Smoking is permitted, in the casino, restaurants, etc. UPDATED: New Paula Dean buffet, other options include JB's Cafe and Jack Binion's Steakhouse. Dining here is above average.
 
We enjoyed our stay and will stop in again when passing through.

We stopped here in Oct 2013 and found the above report pretty accurate. There was a lot of construction going on in the casino and the moving sidewalks were not operational. It is a long hike, even after getting into the casino complex itself.

Found several full pay VP machines, unusual for Harrah's. Walked off with our pockets full of their money and had a good meal off of TR points.
