Top 5 Golf Resorts with a Casino

When it comes to golf and gambling, the US is by far the leader in resorts that offer the best for those who seek it. Resorts are built for one purpose only, taking a break and indulging yourself in things you actually feel excited for. Some go for plain hotels with down-to-earth experiences, while those with a more refined taste spare no expenses for their pleasure.

Now, it’s true that, unlike golf, the gambling experience has drastically changed. There are plenty of online casinos that will spare you the trouble of spending much for gambling and save you that extra cash for golf, by offering you no-deposit free-spin bonuses and other attractive features. And it doesn’t take much effort to get them either, not when you have so many websites dealing with the fine prints like Free Spins Tracker and similar domains. But, serious aficionados go for serious deals. Nothing beats a great golf course and a world class casino, and the following top 5 resorts offer both under one roof. Read on to see why these resorts are well worth splurging on.

5. The Turning Stone Resort

The Turning Stone is a 3,400-acre resort in Verona, New York, that has one of the best golf courses in the US and a 120,000 square foot casino. The casino offers 85 table games, a well-equipped 32 table poker room with tableside dining and massages, 2,000 slot games from top manufacturers like IGT, WMS and Bally, a 1,358 seat Bingo Hall, and a Kino Room.

The Turning Stone also offers five different golf courses, three of which are champion courses. But what stands out the most is their Tom Fazio designed, 7,315 yd., 18-hole Atunyote Course. The course was once the site of the BC Open and the PGA Professional National Championship in 2006, and many professional players frequent it. The service is excellent, the grounds meticulously kept, and the whole experience is everything you would expect from such a famous course.

4. The Pearl River Resort

The Pearl River Resort is located on the Choctaw Indian Reservation near Mississippi and it offers an amazing casino and golfing experience. The Resort has 3 Casinos, the 90,000 square feet Silver Star Casino with 1,200 slots, video poker, Keno, and 40 table games, the 70,000 square feet Golden Moon with1,150 slots, 25 table games and a poker room with 14 tables, as well as the 27,000 square feet Bok Homa Casino with 700 slots.

The Resort is also the home of the Dancing Rabbit Golf Club with courses designed by Tom Fazio and Jerry Pate. The Rabbit is a 7,000 yd. property with 36-hole and par-72 courses set among the breathtaking oak and pine woods of the region. The Dancing Rabbit Club has been praised by many prominent golf magazines and it has two great courses: The Azalea course, the more famous of the pair, and the Oaks course. 

3. Caesar’s Palace and Cascata

There seems to be no need for introduction for the Caesar’s Palace in Vegas, nor for one of its most admired amenities – the Cascata golf course. The casino itself is famous for its wide range of games, bonuses, and special offers for anyone staying at the hotel. But for golfers, the real gem lies within a half-hour drive from the hotel.

The Cascata golf course was designed by the famous Rees Jones and, considering that it has become universally admired worldwide as one of the best golf course designs, even though it only opened in 2000, there should be no doubt whether the course is one of the best around. Cascada means “waterfall” in Italian and the course was named for the 418-foot waterfall that gives birth to the river over which Cascata’s bridges tower. Everything about the course is luxurious, starting from the Tuscan Clubhouse, the magnificent landscapes and the first class service of the employees, which is no surprise considering its 350$ minimum price tag.

2. The We-Ko-Pa Resort and Conference Center

The We-Ko-Pa Resort & Conference Center is located near Scottsdale, Arizona and it is a top choice for both golfers and gamers. Their casino offers live keno and bingo, card games and slot machines, a 24-hour tableside food service and six restaurants and lounges. They have 23 keno varieties, a spacious bingo hall, daily No-Limit Poker Tournaments at noon, 775 slots, including progressive, video and real games, and a Winners Circle Rewards Club that lets you win back some of your money.

The resort doesn’t fall short on golf either. They have two golf courses The Cholla – a 7,225 yd. course that has been praised as one of the best desert courses, and the 6,966 yd. Saguaro course that was designed by none other than Coore and Crenshaw. Both courses have breathtaking views of the environment and have been featured in many golf magazines and awarded many prestigious recognitions. The Clubhouse is also the home of one of the Top 100 golf shops in the US.

 

1. The Beau Rivage Resort

Beau ravage is a waterfront resort located in Biloxi, MS, that’s home of the spacious 24-hour Beau Rivage Casino and one of the most famous golf clubs – Fallen Oak. The casino offers a variety of table games, slots, and a poker room.

Their golf course is only second to Shadow Creek and was designed by the same architect – Tom Fazio. It’s a 510-acre, 18-hole, par-72 course that offers high class service, just as you would expect from Mississippi’s Nr.1 course.  The golf course is an exclusive to Beau Rivage guests, and you can even get it for free if you spend well at the casino. Picturesque, grand, and world-class, it’s no surprise why it’s one of the most favorite stops on the Champions Tours.
