| - Stopped by this place for the first time last night. Wow! Very pretty place. Plenty of machines if you're a slot player, and all the tables were full, as was the card room.
Seems like there was an employee for every 10 people in the place; waaaay overstaffed but that made for great service (in our case, someone asking us if we wanted another drink every 15 minutes -- no complaints!). We also wandered around the outside grounds: beautiful. Shame so little people were outside.
So why only 3 stars? First, the smoking. I KNOW it's one of the few places left indoors to smoke, and all things considered the filtering system was working OK, but we still reeked of smoke after we left, and were only there maybe 2 hours, including being outside for at least 30 minutes. A brand new, beautiful place and it already reeked; what a shame.
The other item was minor but annoying. They have music piped out onto the patio from the hotel, which is nice, but they also have pool music piped onto the patio, so many places you sat outside got this crash of two different types of music..... bad planning and really annoying. Hopefully management will walk the grounds and catch that.
Last, the parking is a tad confusing, only because it's built kind of circular; doesn't flow well. However, there are dozens of golf carts buzzing by to carry you to the casino, so one cancels out the other.
Overall, I say check it out!
