Free with Free Club Membership

Pros: it's a free concrete parking lot with hookups. Clean, a little grass for pets. Did I mention the first night is free if you register at the Casino and get a players card. Then check in at the store/gas station.

Con: No shuttle to the casino.

Overnight Stay

Great spot for an overnight stay. It is a parking lot behind a casino but backs up to a beautiful pasture with pond. Stay is free with a membership card from casino. Got card then went to gift shop to get space. Site had electric and water. Community sewer drop with washout. No wifi but cellular was good. No cable but pulled 32 channels from the antenna. No reservations, only first come. Gas station on property with easy in/out plus food and liquor.

Great overnight resting place

Clean. Safe. Great for an overnight on our way from Joplin to OK City. $30 for electricity and water. Easy check in and plenty of spots. Also, near the casino if you’re interested. Nothing fancy, but we didn’t need fancy.
