We were just there in April visiting my BIL and they had just recently retired to Spark. We toured the town and there is a lot of construction around the streets around the downtown Casinos. But there are several other casinos outside of the downtown area to peruse. It was about 20 years before since we were there and the place has grown and I couldn't help but notice the number of casinos had risen. On the other hand curiosity is that a few casinos in or near downtown have closed their doors allegedly because of the economy but I'm not so sure that was the reason (they look dated and very small).
When we were there, there was construction on both route 395 (north/south) and I-80 (east/west), but there's plenty of other things to do and I heard from others there are a few RV parks in the area but I didn't check their condition. While it would not be a first choice for place to visit because of all the construction areas, I could make it a brief stop over for a few days. We'll be going there again and hope things improve over time since the BIL is gonna be there a while.
