This is a great spot in that the lot is free and there is water and a dump station. Someone mentioned the shuttle busses and sharks. I chose to walk to the casino rather than ride in the shuttles and the drivers (the sharks) did not like that at all. Somehow, they think guests are obligated to ride in the shuttles and tip the drivers.
I was there in 2016 and things may have changed but there were very few Game King machines here and only a very few had multi card keno. The keno payouts are some of the lowest on the planet.

We stayed at this casino for only our second time, it is just a parking lot area for rv's of all kinds. They don't have any hookups, but they do have a water area if you need to fill up and a dump station to use.
All you do is register with the Casino and you are good for 3 nights, or more. You can unhook your 5th wheel trailer or tow vehicle and leave the area but not for over night.
It is walking distance to the casino or they have a shuttle bus to and back.
The lot is well lit, and security drives around all the time.
The casino has many things to do, dining, sports bar, gambling, intertainment etc.
We have and will be going there again when we travel in the area.

At Grande Ronde on Highway 18, Spirit Mountain Casino (45 03.582 123 35.013) is another of these large casinos, run, possibly, by the same Indian tribal corporation as Three Rivers and Chinook Winds. Parking lots were nice and flat with RV-sized painted lines, The best thing about this place may be that it has a dump station and fresh water spigot at the back of the parking lot. There is also a big-rig friendly Shell Station on the premises, though prices are not rock-bottom and next door is a propane fill-up station – pretty well everything that a casino-camper could desire. The usual routine of signing in at Security, then obtaining a Players Club Card at another desk applied here, just as at most of the other places I have visited. I was not quoted a limit on my time allowance to stay in the parking lots. There is a free shuttle from any of several covered kiosques in the parking area, each with an intercom for calling the shuttle. I enjoyed the excellent dinner buffet ($15.95) at 5:45 on a Thursday in March. While I went in without waiting, the line-up was quite long when I came out. My server was quick to offer a drink but omitted to give me any cutlery. When she did bring a knife and fork, she forgot a teaspoon - Nor was there any offer of coffee. Other than that, the variety and quality was excellent. Am staying over an extra night because Fridays feature the seafood buffet (more expensive than the regular fare).
One small item of curiosity – the Players Club lady told me that I would have to go back to Security to get a new card as I had filled mine out with black ink. Apparently the casino has a “policy” of using only blue ink. I questioned Security about this and asked if it took a lot of people at a meeting to make such a decision and did he know why since I was writing a book about strange happenings along the Oregon coast and this would certainly qualify. He allowed as how he did not know the reason and couldn’t think of any management types who might know the origin and reasoning behind the black-ink-ban. He did mention however that, at his former place of employment (a private prison), they (employees) were restricted to using only black ink and no blue, the opposite of Spirit Mountain. This was also chalked up to “policy” so note to those out there involved with Customer Service training – never quote “policy” and try to have a reason for anything you do – that is much more satisfying for guests and probably for staff who might be inclined to think that some senile god is sitting out there on a cloud flipping coins to see whether the organization should favour black or blue ink.
I wrote this update on a Friday morning and as I sat at my computer, the shuttle buses, like sharks, were being very attentive and circled the RV parking lots every 5 minutes or so. Maybe there was some important revenue-producing event that I should have been attending but I chose, instead, to save my energy for the seafood later on.

Another nice stay here. Dump and fresh water filing station. Make sure you sanitize the faucet before filling your fresh water tank. 'Nuff said on that. Some people run their generators all night so the place can be a little noisey. Great all-you-can-eat crab Fri thru Mon but can get very busy so go early. Mon not so much. We will return.

Spirit Mountain Casino free RV area is adding a water station so you can fill your fresh water tanks. We were there last week end and they said in about a week it will be ready for us.
