Yuma-El Centro place to stop, maybe Casino w/RV parking?

Planning a trip to San Diego and will need to stop for the night along I-8 near Yuma or El Centro. I know there are 3 Casinos in the Yuma area but not sure about RV parking availability and easy on/off I-8 access. Any ideas?

    he's right, no buffet at the Q. We were just there on monday and tuesday, the prime rib was $11.95 with your players card. You have to order from the menu, food is good, not exceptional. Lots of rv's in the parking lot. Dona

    He's right! Nothing in El Centro. The Q is your best bet. Right off 8, easy in and out. Walmart off ave 8 1/2E on 32nd, lesser choice.

    Last winter, I spent a couple nights at the Quechan Casino located at exit 166. This is also the exit for Algodones, Mexico. Plenty of parking for free. Easy off and on.
    Excellent place to overnight and their buffet is worth the walk to the Casino.


    They have not had a buffet for over 2 years.

    Use this one quite a bit. Get their players card and enjoy cheap prime rib

    If you want to drive a bit farther than El Centro there is always theGolden Acorn in Campo about 45 Min. from El Centro at Crestwood Exit #61 off of I-8 then it is a easy ride into San Diego.
