Dennis, where did you end up staying?
We had heard that Harrah's closed and it is sad.
Be safe out there!

Mark, we went down to Isle of Capri. It's just a parking lot but it has full hookups incl sewer, areas to walk your (fufu)dog, pool and spa...all for only $8.15/night including taxes....not bad..we stayed four nights there. Not too many gamblers in the casino.
I think the Harrahs property has value but IMHO the other casinos have to join and form a consortium of sorts and build a theme park like a 6 flags, waterpark, maybe a riverwalk venue with water taxis to all the casinos on the river and some decent shopping to draw the people back in. Right now all they have is Memphis. Helena Arkansas is almost all government sponsored housing. The entire downtown is boarded up and it looks like downtown Detroit. Without federal checks coming in, that place would become a ghost town overnight....headed west and warmer weather.....:).....Dennis
