One of only two in the state of Maine, this casino is modest and without the frills one finds at Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods, and is more comparable to Massachusetts’ only open casino, Plainridge Park. All hotels in the immediate vicinity were booked for a busy Saturday night with beaches nearby and $6.99 lobsters plentiful so we stayed 12 miles away and commuted to the casino. The ride was worth it with spectacular scenery along the nearby Maine coast.
Friends decided to do something different for my 70th birthday by taking me to the Oxford Casino in Oxford, Maine, a four hour trip from my home.
