Model T Casino & RV Park

Stopped for one night when the Flying J did not work out for dump and water. (No water and dump area very tight for larger rig.)
So saw this and figured fill and dump before head out to a BLM spot.
Quiet, older, clean, short sites, but the put the bigger rigs toward the back and don't mind if they hand out.
You check in at the hotel desk in the casino, and she was very nice.
Close to anything to stock up also.

We wanted to go to Rye Patch State Park but wind was blowing so hard out here we decided to stop in Winnemicca and ride it out.

Our friend had stayed here and told us he loved it. But that friend loves hook-ups. We are more of the boon-docking/state park types so we usually try to avoid private parks were you are close to your neighbors. (Once we stayed at a private park and when the neighbor put out his slide it was only a few feet from our coach.)

At Model T we were pleasantly surprised, they don't pack you in too close and the park was very clean with grass between sites. They had full hookups, although the AC was only a 15 amp standard house outlet but that was okay. Btw, this was near the freeway so there was a bit of freeway noise.

Great Chinese food across the road too. We think the name was Wonderful House or something.

1. Arrival is at the RV Park Office, a Small Brown Storage shed with a couple windows cut in and a wall mounted air conditioner.

2. Tips: Don't even stop here. It's a shiphole.

3. Favorite thing about this location was getting a refund before I actually pulled into a spot and put jacks down.

4. Negatives:
-Broken down car with rear window broken out in one spot.
-A old dirty brown school bus with Burning Man memorabilia in another.
-Broken down travel trailer with skirting around it and a guy mowing a small patch of grass with a weed eater.
-A Pit Bull on a 15 foot trucker chain that charged me like I was a piece of raw meat.
-Another dog chained to a tree that was barking non stop.
-The office lady in the small brown storage shed admitting they had a problem with squatters and had served eviction notices on several monthly renters after I asked for a refund.

Thats enough. Bottom Line, Pass on this dump.

We did NOT stay in the rv park. We boondocked behind the Casino itself. It is a dusty gravel lot with some potholes but served the purpose for one night. A couple tour busses parked and a couple trucks.
Went into the casino and played a little. There is a small dog section between the rv park and the lot.
If traveling through it serves a purpose.
Some traffic noise but with window closed it was ok.

We Did Not Stay In The RV park, We Made A Reservation (attempted) But Were Later Advised By Rover pass That The Campground Did Not Respond So The Reservation Was Canceled. They did not charge our card despite getting the emailed receipt and confirmation. Of Course We Were Already On The Way So Boondocked In Back Dirt Lot. Two other Large RV’s A Hot Shot Trailer And A Moving Truck. All With Diesel Idling Generators. The Freeway Is Right There Also. Fine For One Night. There Was One Truck That Parked Close Enough That It Appeared They Were Using Meth. They left about a half hour later. There does not appear to be any security patrol like other casinos we have stayed at. The Employees In The Casino Were Nice Enough. I Broke Even And Got Two Free Beers So Was Fine For Me. If I Had Small Children Or Needed To Be Out Walking Dogs After Dark Might Look Elsewhere.

We arrived here for a two day stay. The office staff was friendly and helpful. The only problem was that we couldn’t hook up to the WiFi. But overall, it was a good stay with level spots.

Close to interstate, easy on and off. Fuel just blocks away. Excellent food at awesome prices.
