I have been playing at the Turning Stone Casino for ten years. The rooms a lovely, and the Casino is always beautifully decorated during holidays. Especially Christmas. They have a Christmas sale where their clients can exchange Carrots earned for Christmas gifts and various posh deserts from their bakery. The lodge and hotel are exquisite. The food is well made. It doesn't matter which restaurant you eat at, the food is always cooked well and they always give you a very large quantity. The only negative I see is that the slot machines do not pay out very well unless you are an extremely high roller. However, handling money is up to you. They will give you free rooms once a month if you spend a decent amount of time & money there. They usually give people a free meal every week, even if you don't spend a lot of money. All and all I'd say that the Casino serves the community well. They bring in a lot of great talent to an impoverished area. They do well with, well let me say the people that have less money than most of us. They sell smokes at a fairly decent price. If you pick a penny machine, you are likely to walk away with at least enough money for a free pack of smokes, and a small meal. So, let's be fair. If you can't handle your money yourself, than maybe you shouldn't go there. It is your responsibility to set aside money and set a boundary for yourself. They offer all sorts of other choices. Movies, golf, hiking trails etc. You don't even have to gamble to have a great time there. Let's not forget all those beverages they pump out for free. All you have to do is sit down at a machine to get a free cup of coffee. Come on guys. Fess up.
