Mill Casino RV Park

By signing up for a Players Card...

You will receive a 15% discount. We paid $18.19 per night for a FHU Back-in including cable, WiFi and free 24 hour shuttle service to the casino.

The sites were paved, level and able to accommodate big rigs with enough room for your tow vehicle.

Very modern and well maintained restrooms/showers and laundry facilities. They offered free coffee all day in the office, and provide an assortment of goodies you may have forgotten to pack in the store.

Every person affiliated with the casino we came in contact with was very gracious and willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. If we are ever in the area again, we would definitely stay here and highly recommend it to everyone.

Lighthouse Restaurant, Marina & Resort

This is a Membership Park

We stayed here using our Coast to Coast membership and paid $13 per night for a FHU back-in. They charge an additional $3 per night for sewer, otherwise for a water and electric would have only been the $10 per night.

The road into the park is a levee, a narrow, very wavy levee, but the scenery was fabulous and if you are into water activities, you are in the right place.

Looks like improvements are continuing but, they should have started in the laundry facilities. There are only 3 washers and 3 dryers and the room is very large, just laid out badly. The paint is old and chipping and the washers were filthy with dog hair. We had to totally clean out each one of them before even using them, it was nasty. We understand that it is not entirely the fault of the park about the dog hair, that is a whole other story about irresponsible pet owners that we will not get into at this time. Having just 3 washer and dryers for a park with so many sites is just not beneficial to anyone. Doing laundry is always a chore, but having to wait for one to open up just drags out the process.

The sites were not level due to the very thick and long grass, not from not maintaining though, they mowed everyday we were there. We were a bit uncomfortable with the lawn mowers, they came right into our site and began mowing and weed whacking under and around our rig, outdoor furniture, tires and hookups. Usually they do not go into the sites that are occupied but these guys did, we kept a close eye on them so we could see if there was any damage done.

The roads are dirt and they keep the dust down tremendously with a watering sprinkling system that is designed to wet down the roads only, it was a fabulous setup.

On Friday, the weekend warriors showed up with all there boats, there were some real beauties. The staff were all exceptionally thoughtful and helpful. We got great phone reception which made for fantastic internet service and setting up our dish was no problem since we opted to be located in the open area they have available, otherwise they have some sites that never see the light of the sun due to extensive tree coverage. They do offer WiFi but no cable.

Looking back on this review, it may sound as if it is not a great park, for us that is true. Speaking to others, it is the perfect spot for them, so I guess you will have to be your own judge and decide whether it is right for you or not.

Reno/Boomtown KOA

Adjacent to Boomtown Hotel & Casino

With our KOA 10% discount card, we paid $39.64 for a FHU back-in site which included cable and Wifi. We were greeted by a great host with great customer service who welcomed us as if we were long lost friends.

The first thing we noticed was the openness around the entire campground. There were a few shade trees scattered about but for the most part it was open. The park was huge with hundreds of sites, most were vacant at this time of the year.

We didn’t use any of the facilities but we checked them all out. The laundry room was attached to the office that had several washer and dryers and a great lounging area with free refreshments. They also had the showers, restrooms attached to the office and were spacious and very private. There was a pool and two spas located right outside the office which looked very inviting but we did not utilize them this trip.

After getting hooked up, we walked back to the office and called security from an available phone. Within minutes he arrived and drove us up the hill to the Casino. For the return trip all we had to do was walk outside to the security booth and again they were there within minutes. We loved the shuttle service, the drivers were very prompt and courteous.

We would highly recommend this place and if we are ever in the area again, we would certainly stay here.

Ely KOA

Not Many Options in the Area

With our KOA 10% discount membership card, we paid $31.47 for a FHU pull-thru. There are not many choices in the area and since we stayed here once before in 2008, we thought we would give it another try. We were pleased with it then and even though it is now under new owners, it was still just as nice. Nick, the new owner checked us in and was very friendly and efficient.

When you first come into the park the front row is filled with seasonals, so it is a bit deceiving because they have many open spaces for the overnighters but at first glance it tends to look full. They offer cable and Wifi at an additional cost, but since we have our own dish and MiFi card, we didn’t use them.

The restrooms and laundry area were well maintained and even though the park is on a highway, the noise is minimal and it was quiet and dark throughout the night. We would recommend this park and if ever in the area again, we would stay once more.
