Report from Plugginfool, July 16, 2010
I visited FireKeepers Casino in Battle Creek Michigan on 7/15 - 7/16/2010. I have new information about the parking privileges at the casino. I spoke with outside roving security personnel and 2 officers inside the casino. I inquired about an overnight stay. I was told that there is no problem with an RV staying overnight. I stayed over at the casino 2 nights.
There have been some changes since the last reports have been posted. Trucks are no longer allowed, and a parking lot has been designated for RVs, west of the casino. The surface is crushed stone, level, sparsely lit (which is fine) but I did not notice security making rounds through the area.
There is an entrance to the parking lot that was closed when I visited. To enter the parking lot, use the eastern most entrance from MI-96 ( E. Michigan Avenue ), drive around the parking garage, then behind the casino, and into the lot.
In the past ALL LARGE VEHICLES have been barred from parking at the casino for a time. The security men related to me reasons why RVs were banned for a while. It seems that RVs were directed to an asphalt parking lot in front of the parking garage. Damage was done when jacks were used and depressions were made into the asphalt surface. Other campers were taking advantage of the generosity of the property owners by rolling out awnings, setting up lawn chairs, and picnicking in the parking lot.
RVs are now welcomed. So we all should be considerate of the generosity of the casino.
