Admittedly, Walker’s Bluff Casino is out in the middle of God’s country with little to offer in the immediately surrounding area. However! The casino/ hotel itself is immaculately clean and well staffed with competent friendly staff. Also the entertainment is great (we saw Josh Turner perform there). The restaurants are nice with good food. I would definitely go back again! Great value for money.

As expected. A little expensive

Our stay here was as expected. Very nice clean room. Comfy bed and pillows. We won a little but lost more at the casino but it was fun! We ate at the sports bar and the food was ok. The beer was expensive! $5.50 a bottle of bud light and busch light

Room was very clean. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Didnt use it, but like the extended hours for pool and hot tub. We were traveling and wanted to do some gambling on our way home. Got in late so went to bed figuring we could gamble when we woke up before checkout. Woke up at 8am, came downstairs and the 24 hour casino was completely closed. Security advised they were running a software update and the entire casino was closed. We turned around and figured we'd have breakfast and maybe the update would be over when we finished. Not only is their only restaurant that serves actual full breakfast not open on Mondays and Tuesdays, the member of security laughed at us and said "your out of luck there too, and we dont know how long the update will take." His tone completely rubbed us the wrong way, and we checked out and hit the road. It was 20 minutes from the interstate with a dozen other closer options, but we wanted to gamble and didnt get to which is a shame. Next road trip through there, we'll likely stop at a different casino resort nearbye.

Stayed overnight for a concert.

We went to Walker's Bluff for a Chris Janson concert. We asked for an early check in and they said to check at 2. We asked when we got there and were told to come back at 3. The rooms were ready at 3 and check in was quick. Our rooms were really nice. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoy staying here occasionally to see a concert or gamble for fun. It’s convenient having entertainment and then being able to just go upstairs to bed. Out bathroom this stay wasn’t fully clean. There was long black hair all over the shower walls, the toilet lid was dirty, and the washcloths did not smell clean. We have stayed here before without issue so it was likely a fluke. We will stay again.
