The Steakhouse (Copper Rock) is top notch, but we spend most of our time eating at Timbers. They have a full on Hard Rock Cafe on property, and connected to the casino. The buffet is solid, but not a show stopper. Unlike the other casinos nearby, you can actually do something with these weekly offers. The free giveaway's are really decent crap as well. The free play is more than I get from any other local place, even though my habits and bankroll are always the same. Unlike the Horseshoe, where I feel like I'm getting robbed while playing most of the time.

But the fact that they are located just a few miles down the road from a competing casino, and they need to draw that Chicago money across 3 state lines, means they should be fair. Who knows what they payback, them there Injuns won't ever tell you. And casino #3 is located near the shuttle buss drop off. There is also a non-smoking casino near the hotel check-in, with sliding glass doors that truly give you a break from all the dirty smokers out there (of which I am one of them). The main casino takes up the bulk of the space. Over 3,000 machines, more than 60 table games, 3 casinos under one roof and 130,000 SQFT of gaming.

'The Winds', as we call it, is as close to Vegas as you are going to get in Chicagoland. Four Winds Resort Casino & Hotel New Buffalo Michiganĩ0 minutes from downtown Chicago (Heading East)
