Richard - the Downstream Casino is only 10 miles from Joplin - not 30 miles. They give everyone a free nights stay with hookups in their parking lot. We stay there at least twice annually as we pass through on our way to & from Springfield, MO. Downstream also offers another more private campground with services as well. Walmart's, Lowes, Sears, Home Depot also in Joplin. Just a few miles from Joplin heading toward Springfield, MO is a large truck stop too! In addition, according when you pass through Colaw's RV Salvage is located just off of I-44 at exit 22 if you are interested in new & used RV parts. I stop by there at least twice a year as I pass through. Bart from VA (formally Joplin)
