For another 250 miles, you can go to Biloxi. The 30 mile stretch from Biloxi to Bay St. Louis has 6 CGs and 11 Casinos within 3 miles of US90 and you're right on the gulf.
BTW, the casinos are all built on barges and the hotels they're attached to are on land. That's how they got around the gaming laws in Mississippi. Technically, they aren't IN Mississippi - they're off shore. And the gaming income makes everything else cheap. All you can eat buffets that include lobster and steak. One of the showrooms had Michael Flatley's "Lord of the Dance". Cheap admission and free drinks. Matter of fact, drinks are free in the Casinos as well. They like drunk gamblers.
What's the camping like down there? We have a B, so size, turns, etc are not an issue, all we need is elect, a table, and a couple of trees along with a nice clean shower house. We're thinking of driving from St. Louis to the Biloxi area and working our way over to at least Baton Rouge, and/or a bit further before heading north thru Arkansas and home. We really prefer COE & State Parks over private. Open for suggestions.
