Typical casino, nothing great, players club not fantastic not horrible. Didn't win and didn't lose so it was a positive night I guess. I wouldn't go out of my way to go here again though More

Always enjoy this casino. Nice atmosphere, good games (except when I'm losing!), and love watching the horse races (harness racing). More

The main floor in enveloped in a haze of smoke- makes you want to gag. Even the non smoking section on the main floor has smokers wandering through. Your clothes and hair will reek after a few hours there. The Penny Grove slots off the main floor is a bit better but of course there is very little variety in... More

The place is really nice, but you have to pay for drinks, and the worst part is that the place reaks of cigarettes. I mean, there is a non-smoking section but it is not blocked off at all. Smokers have the right to smoke, but I should have the right not to. More

We had a wonderful time. The casino was... More

We ate at the Timbers Buffet for dinner which had a wide selection of food and delish. More expensive on a saturday night.. Only 1.45 mins form... More
