report from Mike & Jenny, April 7, 2008
OVERNIGHT RV PARKING STATUS: Several RVs were parked overnight in the parking lot outside the RV Park Gate. Didn't inquire about it myself... Stayed at the RV Park
RV PARK DETAILS:
- Fee per night/week: $16/night ($18/night at Hollywood casino across the road according to signage)
- Hookups: 15/30/50 Amps, Water, Sewer
- Lot size and condition: Small, but ok level sites. Includes cable and phone connection. Existing photo's on the site are accurate.
- Distance from Casino: Shuttle service is available from office area, but casino is really within walking distance.
- Amenities: Includes access to hotel gym/hot-tub/pool (pool is only seasonal)
CASINO
- Food; Buffet looked ok, but was expensive (approx $33 per couple). There is a small restaurant on the second floor with good food at a more reasonable price.
- Gambling; A good assortment of games including 9/6 JOB Video Poker.
- The main reason I'm sending this update is to report what I consider to be very poor comps. There is a 'new member bonus' which is 3X points on slot machine cash back play for 30 days. This does not apply to Video Poker or Table games. After spending a few hours playing 25cent 9/6 JOB Video Poker (approx $1200 input) and approx 30 minutes of $5 Craps I inquired about comps for the RV stay and was told that I only qualified for $8 in comps. In contrast we stayed at the Ameristar in Vicksburg at their RV Park and were comped 1 nights stay for playing only $400 input in slots/video poker... you could repeat this each day (plus the RV park gave us a coupon for 2 free breakfast buffets). The Sams Town RV park is cheap at $16, but don't expect them to comp it easily.

report from Rick and Lucky Lucy, January 2008
The cheapest of the three [casino RV parks in Tunica] -- and I mean cheap as well as inexpensive -- has decent sites but they are pretty close together. We were able to get close to the bath house. Security also provides shuttle service to the casino and come fairly quickly when called.
House cleaning for the bath house and rest rooms are almost non-existent. At 3:30 PM they still had not been cleaned and were filthy, the rest rooms were out of toilet paper and paper towels, and trash had not been picked up. I mentioned to the clerk there was no toilet paper and she went into a tirade about the rotten campers stealing the paper. She stated she personally placed two rolls of TP in the bathrooms that very morning. There are 199 camping sites with about 75% occupancy. Let's see, 300 people, two rolls of TP. Yep, someone is definitely stealing it. We won't stay here again either.

Just across the street from Hollywood, Sam's Town also has an excellent RV park. They also permit overnight parking in their parking lot, the one just outside the RV park. An absence of good video poker machines have limited our play there in the past. All in all we prefer the Hollywood, however, ST has an excellent buffet with a wide variety of well prepared food -- especially southern dishes.

report from reader A. Van, March 2006
There is a large campground at Sam's Town (on the west side) with the entrance nearly opposite that of Hollywood. It is more crowded than the Grand or Hollywood (but it appears there's ample room to put out the awning etc), but if you're paying vs. comped, it's cheaper. We were at the Grand when Katrina came through.

Casino Camper Review - May, 2006
It got a little hot and humid as we were dry camped at Casino Center in Robinsonville, MS. Thanks to a report from reader A. Van we knew about Sam's Town RV Park, so we moved there for 3 nights. It's $12.99 a night, nice level pads, and lots of pull-through sites. See the photos below.
Sam's also allows free overnight in the parking lot. In the photo there's a row of coaches and 18 wheelers in the distance on the far left.
RV Park
Sam's Town RV Park is a bargain. For $13 a night you get a nice level concrete FHU spot with cable, instant phone, and access to pool and fitness center. Shuttle service to casino. The whole place was clean and well maintained. Compared to the Hollywood RV park across the street Sams was $2 less, and Hollywood had more landscaping.
Gambling
Video Poker:
The best game was 9/6 JOB. Not too bad considering they give new players 3X cash back for the first 30 days :-). We didn't do the math to figure out cash back %, but it wasn't bad. Comps were easy and a few hours VP at the quarter level got you 2 nice buffets.
Other Games:
Craps at $5 minimum with 10x odds. Blackjack multi-deck was H17, DA2, DAS, RS, NS. Single deck was H17, DA2, NoDAS, NoRS, NS.
Poker room was 'Fair'. Complementary food (hot dogs I believe, and something else). They use large-print playing cards, like you see at many blackjack tables, which I didn't like. Tournaments were 'Fair', the percentage house fee was a little high. They had lots of bad players, and a very few who were quite good. I managed to place 5th in the tournament I played. Dealers were also only 'Fair' and a little slow. I think overall I'd give it a 2.5 on a 5 scale.
Food
We ate the buffet twice and both times it was very good. Asian section had good egg rolls, but fried rice was dried out. Prime rib was OK. BBQ Ribs were VERY good, good selection of vegetables and they were done right. Mexican food was good. Desserts were very good. Chris loved their Sugar Free Peach Pie! I enjoyed dipping strawberries in the chocolate fountain. Wine and beer were included with the meal.
Misc.
Hotel and casino public areas were well maintained and clean. The buffet had some nice large mosaics of an aquatic nature, and some interesting glass sculptures. Grounds were well kept and attractive with landscaping, water features, koi pond, flowers, etc.

We stopped at Harrah's in Tunica , intending to spend the night. Right before the turn into the self serve lot there's a sign requesting that RVers who want to stay over night utilize the RV park. There were many truckers staying there, so they may allow RVers anyway. We decided not to chance it and spent the night at casino center.

report from Rick and Lucky Lucy, November 9, 2008
The inter-casino shuttle buses no longer run in Tunica. Harrah's still operate a shuttle between their properties (Harrah's and Horseshoe). The only way to get to/from the other casinos is by POV.

report from Rick and Lucky Lucy, October, 2008
It is now Harrah's, the Grand name or logo is not to be found anywhere.
The shuttle from the RV park to the casino has changed. They now only pickup and drop off at the front of the RV office building. They no longer run the streets in the park. Pickup is at the top of the hour, 24 hours a day. Actually about 5 minutes after the hour as the bus leaves the casino right on the hour. It is a pretty good hike from the far corner of the RV park to the office so if you don't like to walk or the weather is nasty, best request a space close to the office. This is actually an improvement over the old system where a lazy shuttle driver would skip whole sections of the park and leave customers standing in the rain.

Mac, you might want to post this on the web site for Grand, Tunica.
The transportation continues to be a big problem at the Grand, Tunica, RV park. The shuttle bus is supposed to run every hour at the top of the hour. We wanted to go to the casino at 10:00 the first morning but the driver decided to skip that run altogether. I called our casino host for some help and she got in touch with the Transportation manager. They dispatched a bus to pick us up and Leroy, the Tran mgr, met us at the door. He assured us this would never happen again and gave me his card with cell phone
number. I was to call him if there was a problem.
We wanted to returned to the campground at 4:00 PM but the bus was 15 minutes late -- within tolerable limits (barely). We attempted to return to the casino at 6:00 PM for
dinner. The shuttle bus showed up on time but only ran about half the rows in the park and, of course, she skipped ours. It was dark and raining even so I ran out waving my arms and swearing as she departed the park. I called Leroy and he was livid. A few minutes later the shuttle came back followed closely by the shift manager in her car (who also gave us her card and cell phone number). But who needs this hassle and resulting high blood pressure, we left and went to the Hollywood where we can walk to the casino.
Unless you have a toad and can provide your own transportation, we would recommend
against staying at this park.
Nice campground, widely spaced sites but away from everything. They have a nice clubhouse with swimming pool -- not a big factor this time of year. Wi-fi for $12 per day, free coffee in clubhouse. However, there are no sites close to the clubhouse/shower/ laundry facility. This is a problem for anyone with limited mobility. Of course the big negative factor with this campground is the transportation problem getting to the casino. For this reason we will not stay there again.
The Grand casino is presently undergoing a major renovation. They will completely redo the entire casino and rename it Harrah's. The Grand name will be dropped altogether. Of significant interest, Paula Dean, the TV cook show chef from Savannah, will endorse the new buffet and add some of her signature dishes. We are optimistic this move will improve the buffet -- it certainly needs improvement.

report from Rick and Lucky Lucy, June 2007
Now owned by Harrah's we find it convenient to use Total Reward comp points at the Grand (earned at other Harrah's casinos) to pay for food and camping. They have a decent RV park at reasonable prices, full hook-up about $18. However, we were disappointed to find on our last trip they now charge for Wi-Fi access.
The Grand is the largest casino and resort in Tunica (probably all Mississippi) and is strung out in several buildings over many acres. They also have a golf course, trap range, and other non-gambling amusements. Everything is too far from the casino to walk, including the RV park, so we must depend on shuttle buses. They only run once an hour through the RV park but will come between runs if they are called.
We have never dry camped at the Grand but I have observed motor homes and campers parked in the oversize vehicle lot near the casino.
The buffet is just so-so but seems to have improved somewhat since Harrah's took over. The Diamond lounge is excellent and the casual cafe is pretty good. All are on the second floor of the casino.
There are still a few full pay video poker machines and we hit them pretty hard on our last visit.
