For gaming enthusiasts, places like Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Reno - even Tunica or the Gulf Coast - would seem like natural choices for a vacation involving gambling. There are plenty of casinos and flashy resorts, fine dining, recreation and tourist attractions to keep everyone happy. Few travelers think of planning a gaming vacation in Connecticut, yet the state is home to the largest resort casino in the world.
The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation opened Foxwoods High Stakes Bingo & Casino in February of 1992. At the time, the 46,000 square-foot casino had 170 table games and no slot machines. The entire facility totaled 250,000 square-feet and included a bingo hall, retail boutique, museum, three restaurants and a piano bar. Since that time, over the past eight years, the casino resort complex has grown enormous, and developed to meet the needs of the most discerning traveler.
Foxwoods Resort Casino has more than 315,000 square feet of gaming space in a complex totaling 4.7 million square feet. The casino contains 350 table games and more than 5,800 slot machines spread throughout five separate and distinctive casinos. One of the five areas is non-smoking and contains over 1,200 slot machines. There are 17 different table games to choose from. Try your luck at games including Blackjack, Craps, Baccarat, Caribbean Stud Poker, Pai Gow Poker and Roulette. Keno can be played anywhere on the property or in the designated Keno lounge. There is also a 3,200-seat bingo hall with high-stakes bingo. Foxwoods also offers a 200-seat Ultimate Race Book featuring the ultimate in technology and luxury with 12 betting windows, a sports bar and café.
