Blue Lake Casino & Hotel

Our first visit to this casino. Machines were tight for me but, wife won which is the way it usually goes. Got free play on machines and table for signing up at players club. Staff was friendly enough. Lots of machine variety as the casino was good sized. We didn't stay here or eat here. Not too busy the day we were here. No shuttle available from Eureka area so, you have to drive. Not located on 101 but, just a short drive away. We don't recommend the highway from interstate 5 as it had lots of hills, curves and construction. We would stop here again if in the area.

Stayed on a Sunday night in July 2011. Room with king bed on 4th floor was awesome. Didn't hear any noise as some other reviews have listed, but this was a slow night. The room was $99 but each room guest got $10 in free slot play and $10 in table play. We also got another $5 each in free slot play for returning our key card when we checked out. Ended up winning over $30 on their money. Mainly played penny slots. They had plenty of 9, 15 and 20 max line machines, which I prefer. Had the best luck ever at a casino and ended up winning about $150 even after playing late into the night. My wife also came out ahead for a change. I just wish this casino wasn't so far from the Bay area.
