I would like to inform fellow FMCA members that RVs are no longer welcome to park at Turning Stone Casino, Verona, New York.
After staying one night in the truck parking lot at $20 for 48 hours we decided to fill up with diesel fuel and go to the casino for breakfast and some gaming before checking in at the Villages RV park, all owned by Turning Stone Resorts. We no sooner arrived in the parking lot, where buses park and we have parked many times in the past, when security arrived and told us we could not park at the casino. We either had to park at the truck lot at $20 or at the RV park at $45 per night, both about a mile away. When I tried to explain that we only stopped for breakfast and to kill time before check in at 1 PM at the RV park he said we could not park at the casino at all.
We have no problem with The Villages at Turning Stone RV, in fact they are or were a commercial member of FMCA.
Turning Stone has always been a popular stop of FMCA members traveling across New York state. RVers should not plan on stopping here any longer. Hopefully the Turning Stone management will change their policy in the near future but in the mean time let them know of your dissatisfaction.
