The food at the restaurant shouldn't even be served at a nursing home. It was so bad I wanted to get drunk just to finish it. Only here's the kicker, you can't get drunk or even tipsy at this place. They have oz only drinks for 7-8 a pop. AVOID this geriatric nightmare of a casino.

Large, comfortable rooms with a nice lakeside view. Nice casino. Buffet at the restaurant was great with a lot of choices. Only negative was the peeling wallpapernin the bathroom.

I had a great time! The casino was not overly crowded, the people were really friendly. The slots were some of the best I've played! I played on 5 different slots over a period of 2½hrs and did well on each one. They let you play and enjoy the experience. Best part was I left with more money than I came with! All around good experience and looking forward to going back.

You need to go into this informed. For somebody it might be wonderful, but not for me. If you want to smoke in your room, it must be great. My room came with two ash trays and a smell of stale smoke. I don’t smoke. There was massive dust behind the side tables. Otherwise, the room was clean. I went to dinner, and they have a very simple menu consisting of marginal bar food. Good enough, but not what I was expecting. The small casino gobbled up my $35 in about two minutes. The machines said one cent. Must be an Iowa thing. Again, smoke central. I’m not sensitive to smoke, but somebody that is needs to know. The resort fee is uncalled for. Breakfast isn’t included. If you’re looking for a normal casino experience or an entertaining place to stay on the road, probably not ideal. If you’re a smoker with a simple palate, and understand the arcane nature of Iowa gaming, you may like it. The RV park looked really nice though.

A lovely place! Pretty cheap for the quality and size of the room I stayed in, and every staff member I met was very polite and professional. We made a last-minute change to ask to stay an additional night, and were allowed and even got to stay in the same room! The room was spacious, and the thermostat allowed us to turn it down to 58°, which was very appreciated! We ate at the restaurant both days, the buffet the first day and the regular menu the next. The buffet was very nice; while there weren't many options, what was there was delicious. The regular menu could have had more options as well, especially as the food was the most expensive part of the trip. But both waitresses I had were very kind, and one even helped me find a better deal for my order. The pool was clean and well-maintained, and not very busy at all. I accidentally left my headphones down by the spa, and the front desk had them when I asked! I was very grateful.
