Swinomish Casino & Lodge

No smoking or vaping anywhere within the facility. Including the entire casino. Craps and other table games were a pleasant surprise. Machines available for sports betting with a full sports book under construction. Room was large and very comfortable. Nice walk in shower. Carvers Cafe was very nice. Food was excellent, Bryan is an excellent waiter. I had the halibut and chips which were served with the best tartar sauce I've ever tasted. The halibut was too good on its own for the tartar sauce so I used it for my fries and to make an adequate coleslaw an outstanding side dish.

No microwave in the room. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice for reheating leftovers etc. Refrigerator and the coffee maker in the room were more than adequate. Better signage in the parking lot to direct first time hotel guests to the front desk rather than the obvious main entrance to the Casino.

So My guess that an Indian Casino hotel would be super clean and very comfortable was correct. 13Moons is the restuarant, but it was booked up so be sure to make reservations ahead of time. We ate in the sports bar and it was the best Fish and Chips on the trip. Very comfortable seating... Nice to play slots between whale sighting tours. Staff was super, best hotel of the trip.

Beds were a little hard but all the beds on our trip were so ... Not much to complain about Breakfast restaurants dont open up til 8 so dont get in a hurry. Weight room had free weights which was cool but the machines were very limited. I supposed most people go to gamble not work out. A little construction going on but thats to be expected now and then.

The two folks that checked us in were very sweet and I really appreciated their kindness and knowledge. Jupiter was the person that did the work on the computer, they were fast and respectful. I didn't catch the other man's name but he was dressed to kill in a really nice suit and had helpful information about the area.

I was sad that the coffee stand inside the casino wasn't open yet, we left the day it opened.

The location of the lodge was perfect for our needs. The rooms are also designed to provide the ultimate in comfort and relaxation, with plush bedding, modern amenities, and plenty of room to stretch out and unwind.

The walk from the room to some of the eating options was a little far to walk, especially having to navigate through all the slot machines. My tip is to steer clear of MancuWok and Fatburger. We had dinner in both, and were disappointed with both meals we had. Stick with

Easy access, clean rooms

Although they offered the choice to have your room clean daily, (which we choose not to), they didn’t mentioned that you needed to call every day for them to provide with clean mugs, glasses and refilling the coffee pods. Doesn’t feel good to come back after a long day to an undone room with dirty cups and mugs from the night before.

The soup at Carvers restaurant The bath mat in our bathroom was torn, lights in the bathroom were not bright enough One mattress was not very comfortable, needs replacement Being assigned to room next to the vending/ice machine

Everything about this place was nice! The room was large, the bed comfortable with very nice bedding. The shower was an very pleasant experience with all the hot water anyone could ever want. There are a several good places to eat on property that are reasonably priced.

The campers and RVs kind of ruin the beautiful view of the water but that will not stop us from returning in the future.

FOOD WAS GREAT IN THE CAFE; DRAWBACK WAS THAT YOU HAD TO WAIT UNTIL 8:00AM WHEN THE CASINO OPENED TO GET TO THE CAFE. MAJOR DRAWBACK FOR THOSE SEEKING A BREAKFAST MEAL BEFORE THAT TIME.

DID NOT LIKE THAT YOU NEEDED A RESERVATION TO EVEN HAVE A DRINK AT THE 13 MOONS RESTAURANT BAR. THERE WERE NO OPTIONS FOR WALKING IN TO EAT AT THE 13 MOONS EITHER-ALL RESERVATIONS ONLY. NOT EVERY PATRON DESIRES TO SIT IN THE CASINO BAR AND GRILL TO ENJOY A GLASS OF WINE AND NICE MEAL.

Thr outdoor patio and the indoor dining choices.

One staff member was not very helpful. We went to the upstairs dining area about twenty minutes before closing and asked if we could get a desert to go and were tole it would be impossible since we were five minutes past the last seating. I explained we did not want to go in the dining area just wanted something to take to our room but was refused service. We will remember this.

Nice, big room, and a big bathroom. I had a great view. Nice location. Friendly staff. I had forgotten an item and they actually found it and saved it for me to pick up. I even won a little at the casino.

It's hard to think of something I didn't like. One of the restaurants that people like with outdoor seating closed pretty early.
