The Akwesasne Mohawk Casino is a great place to spend a day. We traveled from Ottawa to Cornwall and then crossed into the US at the Cornwall crossing. For one of the few times, there were no lines up into the US, and later on when we returned as well. It is a great day when you do not have to spend 30 minutes or longer waiting with your car idling until you get through customs to go to the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino.
At any rate, the day went really well since almost after the first half hour of gambling, I won $400 and although I really did not win anything after that, it is a nice way to start the day. Before we started gambling, I had breakfast at Sticks restaurant in the casino for $5.95 which included 2 eggs, bacon, home fries, toast, and coffee. A good deal especially when I used my slot card and only had to pay $2.00!
Akwesasne Mohawk Casino – Keno
After having breakfast, I played Keno for a while and this is where I won $400. What a nice feeling to arrive at the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino and then win within the first 30 minutes. It takes all of the pressure off and lets you enjoy yourself for the rest of the day. I came home with $220 ahead, so all in all a good day. By the way, we also had a draft beer which is only a dollar! Compared to many bars this is a steel!
We also went to the buffet, which was half-price for seniors. It was really busy, but when your buffet for two people only costs $10, it is always a good deal. My wife does not care for the long lines and crowds, but I do not mind especially when the buffet is so good. They really do a nice job with their buffet.
We also stopped for gas and this is a really good deal as well. Not only is the gas much cheaper than it is in Canada, but they also give you a bridge pass so that you do not need to pay the $3.25 toll when you go back to Canada. You must purchase at least $30 worth of gas to get the pass, but then who doesn’t need $30 these days with the price of gas even in the US? I think I saved about $20 in gas and also the bridge pass as well.
All in all a great day to go to the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino! Comments are welcome about your trips to the casino. For more updated posts about this casino, click here.
