Washington has a thriving casino industry and there are two types of casino in the state - tribal casinos and card rooms.

Card rooms, or mini-casinos as they are known as, have been around since the mid 1970’s and offer up to 15 tables of games such as Poker, Blackjack, Pai Gow Poker, Let it Ride and Caribbean Stud Poker. They aren’t allowed to offer Roulette, Craps, Baccarat, Keno or slots. There are around 40 card rooms in Washington.

When it comes to tribal casinos, most are Class III gaming venues, meaning they can offer all types of casino gambling and there are over 30 of these in state.

Washington Casino Resorts 

So, what can you expect from the tribal casinos in Washington? Here’s a look at three of the biggest. 

• Tulalip Resort Casino – Tulalip is a AAA Four Diamond casino and hotel in Quil Ceda Village just north of Seattle. The luxury hotel has 370 rooms, eight restaurants, pool, spa, fitness center, and three entertainment venues including a 2,000-seat outdoor amphitheater. The 200,000 square foot casino floor has 2,300 slots, 37 live table games, and a DraftKings Sportsbook.
• Ilani Casino Resort – Close to Portland, Oregon, the Ilani Casino Resort has a 110,000 square-foot gaming floor with 3,000 slots, 75 gaming tables and a Sportsbook. The 400-room hotel also has an indoor/outdoor pool, fitness center, a 2,500 seat entertainment venue, and multiple bars and eateries including a rooftop restaurant. 
• Muckleshoot Casino – Located between Seattle and Tacoma, this resort has 401 luxury rooms, a spa, pool, fitness center, arcade, four restaurants including a fine dining rooftop restaurant, four quick eat options and a 2,000 seat event venue.

More Than Gambling

Washington is packed full with great places to see and activities to do, so make sure you check out all the fun attractions while you’re visiting. Highlights include:

• Seattle – Seattle is a must-visit in Washington, for all the great landmarks and culture. The Space Needle is recognized all over the world and you can travel right to the top for the spectacular panoramic views. Pike Place Market is a another must-see for the famous fish throwing escapades. Other good spots are the Museum of Pop Culture and the first ever Starbucks. 
• Natural Beauty – Washington is full of stunning sights and fun outdoor activities. You can hike through wildflower meadows and see glaciers at Mount Rainier National Park or witness a stunning 268-foot waterfall at Snoqualmie Falls. Olympic National Park is an absolute wonder where you can experience a variety of diverse ecosystems in one park including rainforest, beaches, mountains, and hot springs.
• Fun Days Out – There’s something for everyone in Washington. You can go whale watching and kayaking in San Juan Islands, visit Leavenworth village for year-round festivals and beer gardens, go to a rodeo, visit the beach or Washington State Fair. In the winter you can go ice fishing, snowmobiling, snowboarding, skiing or ice skating. 
• Food and Drink – Whether you prefer wine or beer, you’re covered here. Washington Wine Country has over 1,000 wineries and I recommend Walla Walla for fantastic wine and a great atmosphere. There’s also a thriving craft beer particularly in Seattle.  If you enjoy Asian cuisine, then Seattle’s International District is a must-try or if you prefer seafood then you must try oysters in Puget Sound. 

Important Considerations

The legal age for casino gambling in Washington depends on whether the venue is licensed to serve liquor. Casinos and card rooms that serve liquor only allow patrons 21 years or above. 

However, some tribal casinos and card rooms that don’t serve liquor will allow people 18 years or above. It’s always a good idea to check ahead and to take along photographic ID to gain entry.
