Winstar info

Never been. How old do you have to be to get in? We want to take my son when he's old enough. I'm not sure he'd know what to think of that.

18 to gamble, and 21 to drink. Other than that I don't believe there are any age restrictions.

Just trying to be helpful . . . . .

We walked through with our daughter at 16. They said as long as she stayed in the main isle and didn't go between the machines it was ok.

of course we have to hit up the buffet.

I don't plan on going back there, they charge 50 cents a hand to play black jack and charge you for beer.

We’ve hit turner falls and stopped at winstar for the night with the kids. They walk the floors with us. Hit gift shops etc. The pool is nice too.

we don't really gamble. I'll throw some coin in a slot just for fun. It's more for my son.

The cigarette smoke in that joint is out of hand.

It's bad, man. I suppose for a heavy smoker, it might be a little slice of heaven, but for the rest of us, the place stinks like rotted a**.

It's by FAR the worst casino for cig smoke. Glad I only play poker(smoke free room)

Drive 4 hours to the horseshoe, it's what proper people do.

Don"t stay at the Hotel unless you don't mind sleeping on uncomfortable beds. Take rolling luggage if you do get a room though. It is a far walk if you can't get a close parking spot. Especially trying to carry luggage etc.. Casino slots are tight. I have had better stays at chain hotels.

Stay in Gainesville, cheaper, nice rooms, and you can usually park near entrance. It's just a few minutes away.

If you carry, don't take it in with you. They take that quite serious.

Good idea, thanks!

first thing when you get there sign up for the club card if you don't already have one, they give you free play on the machines.

ask about comps when you sign up, they like new folks.

have fun, I used to stop there a lot when on the truck, they love truck drivers.

Can’t take the smoke, wife plays the slots and I go to the golf course

Yep, and since they went to the continuous shuffle machines, they've taken away what little edge you may have at blackjack.

Not going back.

Buffet is horrible. There is a non smoking area that they put in a couple years ago. It has a separate entrance and it's nice in there. Lots of choices.

I don’t know about that. Some of the old Atlantic City casinos used to hand out oxygen tanks when you walked in the door because the smoke was so bad.

I'm with you on this. I have won a little money at the smaller Indian casinos up there and am ahead of them probably $100. I go in when passing one by, watch some machines, and when some one leaves one without winning anything will go over and start playing it. I usually stay about 15 minutes and don't make special trips to go play. Also helps the total amount of bad air inhaled to a minimum. Their blackjack charges are ridiculous for sure.
