My fiancé and I very much enjoyed our stay at Walkers Bluff. The room was a large king room on the first floor, it was fairly quiet even with a live band and the sound from the casino. The casino was spacious. We ate at the Sports Bar and the service was very nice, even though the menu was small. We will definitely return when we are in the area again.

This is a full service casino. I stayed for 4 night without the intention of visiting the casino. For the price the ammenities and perks are not to par. For example. There is no coffee available in the morning unless you go the casino floor...and 2 o the mornings it was out. Also, no breakfast provided. For the price and contintial breakfast should be provided to hotel paying guests. Overall it was a nice place but solely focused on those attending and using the casino.

We arrived at the property late, at approximately 8:30, with dinner options closing at 9. Only the sports bar opened later but we were denied access because we had our 2 children. We had to leave the property and drive 6 miles into town to find food at at almost 10 pm at night.

This was my first time staying at the hotel sfter having played at the casino before. Everything was great about the room from the walk in shower to the comfy bed and the weekday rate was quite reasonable. So clean it still has a new car smell. Staff are friendly throughout the establishment.
