Pros: Very nice wide sites, enough room to put tow vehicle next to the rv with space for your atv. It is off highway 95 and 7 miles from quartzite so it is quiet. ATV trails are right next to the campground and go for miles. The staff is very nice and helpful.

Cons: none.

Pros:

You can be 1000 + feet from another camper if you like.
Weeknights are quiet.
Walmart, stores, and restaurants are only 13 miles away in Yucca Valley city.
Joshua Tree National Park west entrance is 11 miles.
The lakebed is flat with adequate cell service.
A dump station and water may be available at nearby Joshua Tree Lake RV & Campground for a fee.

Cons:

On weekends people come out to party and blast their music at all hours.
Some ATV riders intentionally ride close campers just to kick up dust and be jerks.
Many campfire areas are trashed.
Permanent campers - the government does not enforce any BLM rules at this location.
Access roads in poor condition - the dirt and asphalt roads are not maintained and are rutted.

Pros - Great location on I-10 provides easy access to the entire valley and all the stores and restaurants.
Delivery packages except USPS are delivered directly to your site.
Friendly Staff.

Cons - Noise, the I-10 traffic and nearby train are loud.
Goat head thorns are everywhere, they will get inside your rv and on your dogs paws.
RV sites are very close to each other.
Arriving and leaving sites with rv is difficult with many obstacles for big rigs.
Entrance is a 90 degree turn that TT will not round off for rv's turning right.
Latecomers will have difficulty finding a site that fits a large rv.
Landscaping - no landscaping other than the palm trees. Sand everywhere.
No place to walk other than park roads - the sand lot acreage next door has been permanently closed to access for people to walk their dogs and themselves. This was one of the nice things about this resort in the past for many years.

Nice Park - Away from downtown, less noise.
Lots of empty land next to the park for walking the dogs.
Don't miss Junction Express Food Mart inside the Texaco gas station only 100 feet from the park, no need to drive into town.

Pros:
Great security -
RV park has a fence around it.
Casino security drives a van around to check on things - I think it is 24 hours a day.

Location - Good location in downtown Reno, close to the interstate.

Cons:
Expensive -
Final rate is double what is listed on booking sites due to obscene resort fee and taxes.
Rate can easily go over $100 per night, or as low as $60 per night weekday in the back section.
The only amenities are the pool and the store / office with ice, beer, etc.

Noise - Near the Reno airport runway so lots of airplane noise.
Hundreds of people drive by daily with mufflers that have been illegally removed / modified.

Trash - The entire casino has trash on the grounds.
The rv sites have cigarette butts in varying degrees of age.
The rv sites are not cleaned.

Cons: Allow 2 hours before dark to drive around and find a pedestal that has electricity. Many of them have been taped and marked closed by the park. Other pedestals are open but just do not work.

Possible repeat bridge closure in 2023 to ?? if current temporary Santa Clara river bridge to sections M, N, Q, P is rebuilt, forcing rv's to use the back entrance on Arrastre Canyon road. This entrance was used after the bridge was washed out in the 2017 flood. It took several years to open the temporary bridge. The 90 degree turn from this road to the back entrance is very tight (See google earth).

Pros: Almost always has vacancy. Newly rebuilt section K might be finished sometime in 2023.

Pros - Reasonable price
Near, but not next to Loves gas station
Nice long pull-thru spots
Gated entry
Next to interstate but noise not too bad

The new Loves hookups are a great idea and are much needed for rv'ers driving across the country.
