Oh how much I hate this casino. And I loves me some casinos!
The entrance is beautiful and it's nicely located out of the main part of town. Parking can be an issue but they have a shuttle that goes around the parking lot for those rainy days that you can't be bothered to walk to the doors.
But when you get INTO the casino, its a huge let down. The place is packed with machines and even after the expanded it, it's still far too crowded. It's hard to get onto a machine at just about any time of the day or night (we've gone during the middle of the day during the week and during the middle of the night on weekends, its always the same) and the machines are so closely packed together that its hard to move between them to make your way through the casino.
I don't know who's bright idea it was to pick machines, but whoever did it at this location picked far too many high roller machines. $5 a spin? I think not. There's an entire area of the casino that sits empty because everyone wants to pay penny, nickle, dime and quarter slots (and this high roller area is a sizable area too).
The complimentary drinks are nice but I do find that the staff stare you down. This could be because I'm 26 and look like I'm 19 but still... I'm inside, clearly I'm legal so leave me alone to gamble. The bathrooms are gorgeous as well, but it really doesn't make up for repeated lacklustre gambling experiences. I'll spend the extra money and time heading up to the Blue Heron for better machine selection and more room to move around.
Oh and for the record: compared with other casinos, I've had decent luck here. I walk out with the same amount of money I came in with 1/4 times. Not bad...
