When we looked for RV camping in Green Bay, we came up empty. Luckily, we found Oneida Casino and made that our home base during our visit. Casino camping or overnight RV parking at a casino is quite popular among RVers. Throughout the United States, there are many types of casino camping options. Some casinos have RV parks with amenities and others offer a designated space either with or without hookups. We found Oneida Casino to be a convenient place to park our RV while visiting Green Bay.

Oneida Casino has ten designated RV parking spots that are first come first served. The cost is $15/night for a 50amp spot (sites 1 and 2) or 30amp spot (sites 3 thru 10). There is no water and no dump facility on site. No limit to how long you can stay.

Each space is clearly marked by yellow lines. We pulled in on a weekday and there were a few open spots to pick from. According to the casino staff, the spaces fill up quickly when there is a Packers game in town. Several of the spaces are on a slope. We were in space 2 and had to use the leveling blocks.

The electric hookup is easy to locate. Next to it is a post with the space number and a box to place the registration card. Next to each site is a picnic table. We did not use it because there were quite a few ticks in the grass.

To register, walk down towards space 10 and head inside the brown building. Rules for RV parking is posted inside next to the check-in window. We were asked to sign up for a players card that came with a $25 credit.

Overall, we found Oneida Casino to be a great option for visiting Green Bay at a reasonable price. We enjoyed walking around the casino grounds and there was security throughout the day so safety was not a concern for us. However, cars did use the road at night and some would blast loud music or rev their engine past midnight. After our stay, we went to the Cabela’s near Lambeau Field to dump our tanks.

GREEN BAY - The three Oneida Nation casinos in the Green Bay area that recently reopened have prohibited smoking inside.

Brandon Stevens, vice chairman of the Nation, said it was simply a matter of logistics.

“Masks are mandatory (inside the casinos), making it a lot more difficult to smoke in the first place,” he said.

Stevens added that the ban also makes sense now because COVID-19 is a respiratory illness and smoking may exasperate the problem.

Bobbi Webster, Oneida Nation public relations director, said it’s too early to tell what economic impact the smoking ban may have, whether negative, positive or none at all.

She said there might be indicators in a month or so.

Meanwhile, the American Lung Association is applauding the ban.

“This policy will protect the health of workers and customers from dangerous secondhand smoke and e-cigarette emissions, and we call for the permanent adoption of this policy,” the association said in a statement.

Stevens said the tribal council will look at once again allowing smoking “down the road.”

Wisconsin banned smoking at indoor businesses 10 years ago, but tribes as sovereign nations have jurisdiction over their lands, the American Lung Association stated.

The association also applauded the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of the Mohican Indians for banning smoking at its casino in Bowler.

Ho-Chunk gaming in Madison was the first tribal-owned casino to ban smoking five years ago, the association said.

“We strongly urge other casinos in Wisconsin to follow the lead of these tribes,” the association stated.

Tobacco is an important part of Oneida Nation culture. The Nation is planning a tobacco burning ceremony this Thursday, but Stevens said there’s a dichotomy between using the leaf for religious events and for recreation.

He said the natural Native American tobacco is used to pray with when it burns as smoke and prayers go up to the Creator.

The Oneida Nation casinos had been closed since mid-March because of the pandemic and had reopened May 26.

“As we begin recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, we hope to do so with the support of our greater community,” the Nation said in a statement. “Every business in our communities have been impacted by the pandemic and are seeking recovery and we support all efforts towards re-building these businesses.”
