Literally across the parking lot from the casino. There is no tables, rest rooms or showers on site. Just sewer, water and light. But didnt mind because we spent most of the day / evening in the casino.

Really nice campground water electric and sewer for $15 a night, fantastic deal. There are a total of 20 spots on a first come first serve basis and an easy walk to the casino where there are restaurants also. casino is very nice and huge but I was let down simply because other than Texan hold them there were no card games only slots.

Only legal casino in Texas and it's on Maverick County! Casino is in excellent condition and machines are well maintained. Not very crowded and every now and then, a huge raffle takes place. An IHOP, Freddy's Burger and Pizza are inside casino! Recommended it!
