"Went to a ban concert at the casino, it was good. Large bar area"
"I go to conferences here every year and the food is decent, staff is nice and the facility is nice as well. If you're booking a party or conference take a look here."
"Great place. Fun atmosphere. Friendly staff. The host Mark is very helpful and genuinely cares about his guest. Great place for a getaway. I will continue to visit as often as possible. So worth the trip."
"Had a lot of fun here with some friends for my 40th. We attended the races, had dinner hit the slots and watched a band. Stayed in the hotel. If you're going for a night out it's fun but anymore than that and I'd be uninterested. Hotel was nice rooms were huge."
"First time there. Really enjoyed watching the horses run. Sad that they maybe shutting down at end of month."
