New "racinos" popular with RVers

It didn't take RVers in Indiana long to discover the state's two newest "racinos" (casinos at racetracks.) I called one of them this afternoon to find out if RV parking is available and the person who answered the phone said, "Of course, there are four or five motor homes out there already." The two new casinos at Indiana's race tracks are definitely RV-Friendly and both permit free overnight parking. They are open 24 hours daily and security is good.

The best news for travelers is that both facilities are located within a mile of the interstate exit, so you won't burn too much fuel to get to the free overnight stop:

--Indiana Downs, opened last week, is just off I-74 at exit 109.

-- Hoosier Park, opened on June 2nd, is just off I-69 at exit 26.
