What a night we had in Michigan .....My husband and I went to visit my sister in law and husband on the north side of town Ft.Wayne, In. We had supper and afterwards we decided to play cards. I happened to look at my schedule on my phone and noticed my day off fell tomorrow, Monday . So telling my family hey guess what I am off tomorrow, my husband raised his voice road trip, so we all dropped our cards and took off to Michigan. Although Battle creek is only 1 hr and a half away from my family's house, we felt we had gotten there real quick. Once getting there we went straight to our favorite machines...We had so much fun that we got home close 4:00 a.m. this morning. What a great time we had! | 1 |
We had a lot of fun here and won quite often. We came on a Tuesday and had the senior breakfast buffet for $5. Breakfast doesn't get any better than this! They know how to move the line along fast and there's plenty of different, delectable goodies to choose from. | 0 |
You have to wonder, there must be a lot of customers with money to burn! This place was super packed. Even tough to get on machines and tables. Even tougher to win any money!! | 0 |
Lots of variety in Slot Machines. Only complaint is that some smokers are not considerate of others. | 0 |
Good place to go gamble great area nice hotel and casino as well very good food and just a place to relax as well do enjoy okay | 0 |
One of the nicest casinos I have visited, including Las Vegas! A large variety of slot machines, along with various table games. Although this is a smoking allowed casino, they apparently have a very good air filtration system, as I was not bothered by smoke or smell. Areas around the machines were constantly being cleaned by attendants. A really fun and enjoyable place to play! | 0 |
Went to Firekeepers for the Alabama concert. We were blown away by the great service at the Nibi Lounge bar before the concert-the bartenders were awesome and so were the appetizers. All event staff was super courteous and helpful, great place for a show! | 1 |
The casino offers a wide variety of slots and table games in addition to multiple dining options. The snack bar offered a remarkable choice of pizzas and other food. A buffet and a couple of upscale restaurants are also onsite. The property is immaculately maintained and the staff is friendly and competent. Worth stopping in if in the area. | 1 |
Noisy and smokey. Tons of gambling choices, and places to eat, all are expensive. Free soft drinks. Ther is a section that is smoke free but all the smoke from the smoking area filters into the smoke free area and you are sitting in a pool of smoke. Concerts ther are short and seating is on padded seats that ar just 1 step up from a folding chair. | 0 |
We decided to do a mini-3 day casino camping adventure this past week. First to visit is Firekeeper's Casino. I had been there a few years ago but this was a first for my husband. I do believe they have expanded the casino since my last visit. It is easily accessible from I94 exit 104 and they offer outside and garage parking. The sign-up desk staff were very helpful and friendly. Casino floor was kept very clean as well as the restrooms and the attendants were very helpful. One thing I liked are the staff with the beverage carts, always going around to serve water or soda beverages. The casino is very up to date with the latest slots and I found a lot of new ones that I have never played before...very friendly slot machines also. There are numerous eateries off the casino floor to fill everyone's needs. This place could be a one tank trip from Indiana depending on where you live and a real pleasure to be in Pure Michigan! Stop by sometime for a day, a night or a weekend!Mary M.Hobart, IN | 0 |
This is a large casino with all the games you want to play, including poker. Casino is clean and well maintained. Great staff. | 0 |
This casino has a large selection of games and live tables. Sometimes win and sometimes lose here but usually a nice time. | 0 |
As casinos go Firekeeper's is an excellent choice to visit, it is an excellent location with an array of interesting places to visit within the Battle Creek area if time permits. Since we first visited Firekeeper's Casino in Battle Creek Michigan we have been on their internet and mailing lists, which have resulted in monthly comp awards such as free play, special event tickets, rooms and food! Their room rates are $169 regular room if you don't have a comp but we have stayed 3 times for $99 which is also an excellent value. This visit we stayed at the local Best Western; although there is many selections close by. I'm sure if you play/gamble more than I do they probably comp the room? We had not been for awhile and had some freeplay which we cashed in on. They have excellent restaurants, pool, hot tub, sauna, fitness center and excellent room accomadation. I highly reccommend a visit to Firekeeper's. They also have an excellent Slot Club with a very rewarding Seniors Players club if you are older like we are. Also ample parking is available in the parking garage or lot for all types of vehicles and is directly located off the interstate. Give Firekeepers a try! | 1 |
One of the larger casinos in Michigan. Offers lots of slots and tables. Top win at a penny slot machine for us yesterday was $300. Very clean throughout, nice restrooms, excellent food choices, friendly staff. Have a beautiful hotel, pool, and a parking garage. One restaurant accessible from hotel for children. Would have given 5 stars but noticeable smoke smell upon entering the building. | 1 |
Good day trip destination. I wish the hotel was more affordable. Came home ahead so I'm happy. Good food choices, the host concerts as well. | 0 |
I've lived in Vegas. I can't talk about that place, because everything stays there. Firekeepers is as close as you can get without jumping on a plane. Great place to hang out even if you don't spend a dime. | 0 |
This was the first time I tried Firekeepers buffet. Every dish was tasty, hot, and fresh.I recommend the buffet. Crabmeat and mussels were fresh and delicious. Reasonably priced and they give Firekeepers card holders discount. | 0 |
Nice little casino. Not too smokey which is nice. I hate leaving a casino smelling like smoke. Lots of slots and e-table games as well as live table games. | 0 |
Well we won!!!!I like the way it looks and feels.It allows smoking but it is filtered pretty well. And I sort of thinking smoking, drinking and gambling go together.Some people still look cool smoking but most not.But I am asthmatic and two days after leaving the casino I had some trouble breathing.There is a non smoking area but I swear they put old machines there and keep the area small.I liked the style and the choices of games.We ate at a restaurant but I wasn't too hungry but the food I got seemed good and properly cooked.I swear this restaurant had a happy staff. Natasha seated us and Brandi (?) had a nice smile and was attentive.Compliments to the manager. You don't always see happy workers.I definitely would go back. Although the Hollywood Casino in Toledo is closer and friction of distance plays largely as to where people eat, shop and gamble. Usually close wins out.I wanted to stay at the attached hotel but it was booked solid. | 0 |
We had a great time at firekeepers. Broke even, but had some fun and entertainment! Drinks were reasonable too. | 0 |
For those who are used to the traditional Native American themed casinos you find around the state, this is not one of them. This is what I call a corporate casino. That said, for the west side of the state, it has more table games than most of the rest. However, a lot is lacking, especially in the restaurants, namely the buffet. Their 24/7 is good with fair prices. Staff is friendly with decent offers for the high rollers or bread and butter daily players I suppose. Assuming you're losing that is. | 0 |
We live near Bridgman and 4 winds. It is a beautiful place, and this one is dull. The gambling is ok. | 0 |
Im not speaking for all dealers. There are some that I genuinely like, but holy smokes some of them are just rude and irrational. I was playing pai gow, betting $1 on the side bet, and $1 on the hand for the dealers...every hand. I won a hand and needed more singles to tip with. The dealer told me to give him 75 cents so he could give me 3 red chips. I said Im gonna need more ones to tip you with. He told me no, and asked again for my 75 cents. I couldn't believe it lol. The guy didn't want to get tipped. A different day I was playing craps. Once again I have tips on the pass line constantly, plus other tips I throw to them randomly. I had just hit a point, and we were coming out. I threw the dice over hand..ish, kind of like you would throw a Frisbee sidearmed. The stickman instantly told me that's gonna end. We're not gonna be spiking the dice anymore. I understand that players can be ridiculous, but I used the same amount of force I would if I threw the dice underhand, and the dice stayed on the table. If there was a reason to not do it, I would love to know, but it's like they look for reasons to yell at people. The way he said it was so rude, and impulsive. I would understand their attitude if I was some non tipping jackoff throwing the dice off the table all the time, but I wasn't. Ugh...just annoys me. Other than the occasional rude service, I love the casino. If it wasn't the closest one I would definitely choose a different casino though. | 2 |
Pros:1) Lots of great slots and table options. The casino is actually pretty large compared to some others in Western Michigan, so there is a lot to play.2) Lots of food options. While some casinos only have one restaurant to get food from, Firekeepers has a lot of options. Buffets, sit-down, cafe, even a Biggby's if all you want is a coffee while you play.3) Good service. They constantly have staff walking around making sure everything is clean and tidy. They are also very nice to talk to as well!4) Lots of promotions and entertainment. They are constantly giving you free money to play with and offering promotions for card holders to the shows they have and free items when you earn enough points.Cons:1) Tough to win for slots. You could really make this argument at all casinos really, but if you are playing to earn money and not just to have fun this may not be the best casino to go to. I've seen people lose $500 in a matter of an hour because they are impatient or get upset they are losing and waste their money!2) Pricey food if you don't get a card. Getting the card can give you discounts to the buffets and such, but even with the discounts it would be a pricey meal for a bigger group especially at night!Even with how tough the slots are I would still give this place a 5 out of 5 stars. It's a very fun place to play and have fun in and would say that it is the best casino in Western Michigan all things considered! | 1 |
When you walked in you were greeted and felt welcome. Next I went to rewards desk where I was given a card with 5 dollars instant cash. Slots were abundent . We ate breakfast at the cafe and it was delicious. I would recommend you give it a try when you are in Michigan | 3 |
We completely enjoyed our time at Firekeepers. The atmosphere was fun, and there are many eating establishments to choose from! | 2 |
I was lucky enough to hit a $2,700 progressive jackpot about 20 minutes into my visit. It was so much fun. The casino had many games to choose from and was not crowded at all on a Wednesday mid morning. The attendants and staff were friendly and attentive. Hope to go back again soon! | 1 |
We visit this casino quite a bit, since its closest to home. Always clean and kept well! Tons of slot machines!! Good Vibes! And the buffet is nice!!! Good food, a little something for everyone! Only downfall, it should be open just a little later ( Mijem) for us night owls!! LOL | 1 |
I'm not a gambler but I do enjoy watching people. They also have some of the best food in the area. They seem to draw in some top notch talent as well. Check out a show and get something great food to boot! | 1 |
As stated before slots are tight. Haven't really won anything at your casino in four years. Tried at least 15 different machines. | 2 |
Visited on a Sunday, the crowd seemed a little heavy 3-6:00 time frame but was a little less busy after that. Wasnt an issue finding games we liked that were open/available so we enjoyed our stay. We won some, we lost some more. The grounds were clean as were the restrooms. Everyone we talked to was helpful and friendly. | 0 |
My husband and I had a great time at Firekeepers. We came out ahead! The floor staff was very nice and the casino has a ton of slot machines. We will be back! | 0 |
When the establishment opened some years ago, I thought they had incorporated the best anti smoke system I've ever seen...but cigarette smoke after all is unforgiving. Granted, the various restaurants are obviously smoke free, but getting there is without compromise to your health. FIREKEEPERS, you have a good thing going. Focus on getting the smoke issue/air recirculation approved. Even people frequenting your establishment will thank you in the future; and will bring me back as well to enjoy your restaurant(s)Herb | 1 |
Smelled smoke as soon as we entered the corridor connecting the parking structure to the casino. While the facilities look nice, the smell was unbearable. We left after 15 minutes. The non-smoking section is a joke. It's open to the smoke filled area and has no table games. Until smoking is banned, I would never return. | 2 |
When we come to battle creek we always go to the fire keepers because its always a fun thing to do in town. | 0 |
Firekeepers is Fabulous! Clean, Friendly, Accommodating, and Fun! I haven't won per-say any large amount of money, but my husband and I love having date night at fire keepers. The food is delicious, especially the Seafood Buffet! We enjoy late night meals at 24-7, and can't wait for it to re-open! The staff are super friendly. All around wonderful time, Overtime we visit! | 0 |
I live about 25 miles away so I am a frequent visitor to the Casino. People playing the slots are usually very friendly and talkative. I have never sat for any length of time at slots without a housekeeper popping up to clean ashtrays,etc. Bathrooms are always clean!!! Bingo hall is a different situation. I have played there since they started and find their games fun. The majority of the workers are very very friendly. The drawback is the same main people seem to win the bigger payouts. It is very bothersome. Also they have rules that should apply to everybody. If they aren't going to enforce them then they should just get rid of them. Examples would be no talking on phone. The payouts are very good and the bingo is fun so even though I have some issues with it I would definitely recommend people to give it a try. | 1 |
Very nice selection of restaurants varying in prices. Great weekend giveaways. People who work there are very friendly and accommodating. | 0 |
Firekeepers is alright for a casino, better than most. Pretty clean inside and a relatively new building. The food is ok-ish, but way over-priced. I would suggest visiting sometime if you live close by, but don't travel too far.. | 1 |
Not a visually attractive setting nor decor. Buffet is always a one/two hour wait whenever we've visited. Sunday was seafood buffet with skinny but abundant crab legs , mussels, flattened and heavily breaded shrimp, dry salmon, catfish... It's just not worth the $26 asking price as the offerings are comparable to the Golden Corral Buffet. Desserts were unremarkable, as were the FOUR (4! )Italian dishes. Not as smoke filled as some other casino's in the area But ...for a casino...there seemed to be very few and very small payoffs. | 2 |
We've been going to Firekeeper's for a long time to play slots. Always had a good time. Began to try out Blackjack and other table games. The dealers and pit bosses go above and beyond to provide tips and advice. The casino's support staff also does an excellent job keeping the casino clean. It's rare to see trash on the floor. The only downside is that in one end of the casino-near the poker room, the smoke eaters are not working correctly or something; as on two different occasions that area of the casino had a terrible cigarette odor. And I'm a smoker-it even bothered me-couldn't even be in that area. | 0 |
I love going to Firekeepers but wish it was closer :) It's a 1 1/2 hour drive one way. The Detroit and Windsor casinos are only 1/2 hour away but I don't like any of them anymore. Their blackjack minimums are way too high and they've really tightened up their slots. I really like their blackjack game at Firekeepers where it uses real cards and a dealer but the chips, etc. are electronic. Also played on the new slot blackjack game and won a lot. It is MUCH better than the old slot BJ game where the dealer would get a BJ on 1 out of 5 deals. The human dealers are very friendly and the last time I was there I came out way ahead. The slots seem to be good to but I rarely play them. I kept getting monthly notices that I could get a hotel room for $99 but FINALLY got one for a free room and will be there for my birthday in April. I think it's because I was winning last time and could keep playing for longer. Wish they'd send more free rooms - it's a long way to drive and spend hours gambling then driving home the same day.Also, the chicken & waffles meal is my favorite. I have it every time I go there and it's never disappointed. | 0 |
Not as crowded as other casino's. The staff is friendly. The casino is clean. Try this casino, I found it better than downtown Detroit's casino's. | 1 |
I visited the casino over Valentine's weekend and it was very busy. It was fun to people watch. They had lots of slots but just not a great variety of other things. The bars were crowded which is where we would have liked to stay longer. We did get concert tickets. The venue was very nice for a concert. The customer service was friendly with every interaction except when we got our tickets... they were very confused and seemed like they didn't know what was going on. | 0 |
Well laid out. was not over crowded during superbowl sunday. clean. ashtrays could have been cleaner. I plan on visiting again soon. | 0 |
i can only comment on games i play here so that is the review. I play video poker and craps. It used to be that if you play a certain rack of games JOB you could find 9/6 here. The bars were not as good on payouts. Now the whole place is 8/5 JOB so not as good as say soaring eagle which all are 9/6. The craps games are not always great as the staff doesnt follow craps etiquette...allowing players to move and shoot at will without reguard to rules.They seem to just want these hotshot C&E players $$ who think they are gods gift on shooting the die. Usually they loose but quickley move into the next shooters slot disrupting the flow of the game. I dont appreciate that and dont bother to lay money here if that play is happening. | 3 |
By far out of all the casinos i've been to in this area, this casino pays out the most. You get lots of small wins and you even do hit the big one quite frequently. Absolutely love it. | 0 |
Well-lit, clean casino with tons of slots and a nice atmosphere. The in-house Biggby Coffee is a great touch. Lots of tables, and I was surprised to see they still had $5 blackjack on the weekend. Dealers were friendly and professional, and the other employees I've interacted with were the same. A little disappointed a casino of this size didn't appear to have Pai Gow Poker, but it's not my call. The air quality is what it is for a casino; the smoke smell will never be entirely gone to someone who is sensitive to it, but they seem to do a good job all things considered. The Player's Club seems pretty good for the area. Planning to visit again. | 0 |
Great hip hop atmosphere and décor in the bar area. Feels like you're in Vegas! Steak and lobster was great but not the best ever had. Had wonderful service. Great martini's! | 0 |
The Firekeeper's Casino is one of the best local places for food and unique entertainment. It is highly rated and world class to stay and play. Great pool, many eateries, and free coffee or soda while you gamble. outstanding unique gift shop and it now has a Starbucks Coffee Cafe. Great place to meet up with friends for a day . They offer many venue entertainers as well. | 0 |
Been to this casino before and had no issue with smoke. Thos visit, Maybe due to the number of visitors, we found ithardtto breathe. $40 NYE tickets fidnt cover anything but entrance to hear yhe band. Was impressed with the good pour of alcohol gir the money though!! | 1 |
Good size and variety of machines at this casino. I saw plenty of people hitting enough to keep playing for awhile. A little slow to get drinks when it's busy. We enjoy playing here. | 0 |
This is a very nice casino. Plenty of food choices and free soft drink stations. I'm not a gambler, but will play some slots. My husband plays 3 Kings and does pretty well on that machine. Staff is pleasant and helpful. | 0 |
We went to Nibi and although the bill was 150 for two people it was an amazing meal! hotel is great too... we do not gamble so casino floor was smokey and gross to us but that is typical of casinos... we just walked through... we have also been to this hotel with our son and it has the most amazing pool around! | 0 |
Spent a weekend to get away. Very spacious casino with state-of-the-art air handlers. Still a bit smoky during peak hours but It's a casino. Rooms were absolutely beautiful and comfortable and the pool area was gorgeous. The staff was impeccably polite, from the restaurant hostesses to the bartenders and hotel reception. I have stayed at a few of the more upscale Vegas hotels, and the Firekeepers is on par. Will definitely be back! | 0 |
Being from this area, when you run out of things to do, going to the Casino is always an option. Still relatively new to the area, the casino is flashy and shiny and clean. I've not stayed in the hotel, nor have I been to many casinos, but this one seems just fine to me. I always enjoy myself and the casino has hosted a variety of shows and artists. | 0 |
A very fun casino to play. Easy to get in and out, not huge, a great place to hang for a few hours and have dinner too. | 0 |
I thought that it was ok never really got any drinks while playing the slots. The buffet was good except for the three hour wait. | 0 |
The audio was horrible. Many of the folks around us had a difficult time understanding the comedian due to the sound system. We did have a nice time though and the casino was a lot of fun, although we almost choked from all the smoke. | 0 |
We stopped here on a road trip. It's a fairly large casino with a large variety of slot games. The smoking was annoyingly stinky. They could do a better job of cleaning the air so it doesn't smell so bad. The non smoking section was a nice touch. However, there weren't many new games in that area. | 0 |
The costumes were over the top fantastic! This is a must see for everyone! Overall our group really enjoyed the night. We will be back next year! | 0 |
Always clean and has a good selection of slots and table games. There are usually new games every time we go. All the restaurants have good food with a price range for everyone. | 0 |
Came here for 2 days with the wife. We had fun, started off very good, then gave it all back on the second day. Loved that they had $5 Blackjack tables on a Saturday morning/afternoon. | 1 |
Haven't gambled to much there but go there for Breakfast on Tuesdays. They have a really great deal then. If I remember right its $10 all you can eat and they have a lot to eat...lol | 1 |
The room is really special. Huge marble bathroom, big, fluffy towels, top notch amenities, bathrobes, refrigerator, coffee pot, blow dryer, comfy bed and the TV greets you by name. I love, the architectural barn doors. All in all a great stay and worth the price upgrade from the Quality Inn. | 1 |
I had to travel to Idianapolis from the Detroit area and decided to break up my drive with an evening of gambling and I'm glad I did.Everything about my stay here was nice - from my room to the casino experience and the excellent buffet. | 1 |
This time around I really enjoyed the casino. The slots were paying and the crowd enthusiastic. The cigarette smoke is awful, though. I didn't make it to the buffet bar this time around but past visits have proven the food to be acceptable. Lines can be long at times (as was the case during this particular visit). The slot play was fast paced and fun. Machines were actually paying off but some of my other traveling partners found them not to be so much as the evening progressed. Overall, an enjoyable visit. Will visit again. | 2 |
Building was beautiful, easy to get to. Needs more handicap parking spaces. Lots of restaurants inside, self serve free drinks. The had a massage person that would give you a massage while you play, that was cool | 0 |
I love not driving 2 hrs to get to a casino. I have been going to fire keepers at least once a month since it opened. the food is good in all the restaurants.i always enjoy myself playing cards or slots.the people are helpful & friendly.i will continue to go back for the enjoyment. | 0 |
As far as casinos go this one has a variety of games and it looks like lots of tables available to play also. It's just a luck of the draw. My only complaint is that there is not much incentive to be a card member. | 0 |
Always winning here! The food is ok ( I would not pay for the buffet again as I don't think its worth the money). I like the staff they are friendly and have always had a good experience. | 0 |
The casino is well laid out with something for everyone - all tables games, slots, poker, keno and even bingo. There was never a line for the cashier, valet parking was complementary.The issues: - First the smoking will knock you down as it is strong and there are only certain areas set up for non-smoking and those are slot only. It would be beneficial to have smoke free table games. - The pit bosses need a lesson. For those who play alot, checking your rating and buy-in are ways to keep the comps flowing and the play accurate. Adam a supervisor in the table area totally turned me off. His arrogance was only only trumped by his lack of federal law which he rambled off incorrectly a few times. Hint: If you want players to come with a bankroll take care of them - otherwise they don't come back. Even if the hosts were surprised by his comments and lack of care. | 2 |
This month was my third time visiting fire keepers. I have only been able to stay in the hotel once. Very clean and great service. I am however a bit disappointed that my last weekend stay, I stayed at the quality inn across the street because it was cheaper. Returned home to find in my mailbox a free night stay anytime for my husband and I. That sucked!! Wish the mailers would come before the beginning of the month and not at the end. I can't look my rewards up online, it has never let me log in, always getting an errot | 0 |
I would not recommend this place for anyone. First of all, there was a bug in my bed. Later in day I found a ticket voucher on floor in casino. Cashed it in at a kiosk. For two and a half hours, I was pretty much harrassed by security staff and tribal police. I returned the money and no one was willing to issue proof that i paid it. Ended up leaving at one a.m. even though i still had two nights left reserved people can rant about the food and rooms, but none of that counts when a frequent customer gets treated badly. | 10 |
Nice hotel, we have visited a couple of times and the staff and hotel are very nice. The slots in the casino, however are TIGHT. I go to casinos knowing I'm going to lose my money. No Problem so far, but if I can't spend a couple of hours playing, because the slots are so tight I consider it a bad night. | 1 |
Stayed at Firekeeper's Casino hotel in late August and had an enjoyable expeience. The hotel room was very nice and clean, and the food in the main restaurant was very good. We tried the crab cakes and found them to be very tasty and fresh. Also, the buffet at this casino is really good and fresh. Great value for the money. As far as the gambling goes, we had fun and were mostly entertained. Also, we tried the Bingo and found that to be an entertaining experience (even though we did not win). All in all, I have to say that I will go back to this casino because it was fun. | 0 |
we just got back from a trip to Fire Keepers Casino in Battle Creek ,Michiganthe staff are so friendly ,they made us feel like family .The hotel is beautiful, the room we had was fantastic. Our only complaint was not enough non smoking area in the casino & of course it would have been nice to come home a winner but it certainly was entertaining | 0 |
If you want to win-not the place. it's entertainment, that's about it. If you have nothing to do go there spend a few hours and go home. BUT, make sure you eat there-with rewards card it's cheaper + you can use your gaming points. Food & service is fantastic.However, holidays are a bit steep. | 1 |
A nice casino, very clean and neat. Never have a hard time finding a machine to play. Always a enjoyable experience. We always have a pleasant experience when we visit | 0 |
The first thing we noticed as soon as we walked in was the smokiness, there was always a cloud of cigarette smoke around us which made for a very uneasy experience. The casino is spacious with high ceilings, a large variety of slots with comfortable chairs. The food at the cafe is average at best, prices are reasonable though. We were a little disappointed that the gift shop does not carry more tribal made goods, it's very limited. | 1 |
Clean and big! Free non alcoholic drinks(self serve or other). Food was excellent in Buffet and rivals big casinos in Las Vegas. Prices for food comparable to other casinos of this size. Nice clean grounds. We went on tour bus and got out right at door. I plan to go back. | 0 |
Impressive casino. From the road the casino has all the flair of a Las Vegas hot spot. Inside is well-organized, modern and fun in appearance. Wait staff was attentive and friendly. Drinks were well- made and affordable. The only downside was that the bathrooms were located quite a distance from the center of the casino. We had a great time and will definitely go again!! | 1 |
Very modern casino with a wonderful atmosphere. The lights will slowly change colors which makes for a unique experience. Nice slots and plenty of table games. The casino is clean and comfortable without a lot of smoke. Noise level is the same as most casinos so it does get loud. I would recommend this casino as one of the top ones in Michigan. Very close to Marshall if one wishes to go into down and eat at the historic Win Schullers or just shop at the boutiques. | 0 |
love the local casino, very nice. didn't win, but fun. The hotel is very nice, deluxe to a person like me. | 0 |
I had a room on the 5th floor a long way from the elevator which made it very quiet. The rooms are fantastic and loved the robes. Beds are very comfortable. Great view of the sunset. Casino was fun and the buffet was seafood night. had a wonderful pizza there too.Cant wait to go back | 2 |
When we stay at the Baymont Inn in Battle Creek, we always make the time to go to the Casino. Very nice area and I enjoy playing the slots as well as the card games | 0 |
Really smokie, pretty tight slots, but not a bad regional casino by any stretch - worth a visit and a roll of quarters. | 2 |
This casino is very clean and well kept; but it is a typical casino. The slots were not paying off; and several people made that quite clear. | 2 |
Hubby and I went at last minute this past Saturday to Firekeepers Casino for the first time. We arrived around 1 PM. The place was packed with tons of buses in the parking lot. Loved the glitzie light flashing games and lights. Made a feel like Vegas (which we have been to 5 times). Hubby played one game for about and hour winning abit. $90.00 I won $45.00 and stopped. We were gonna get a room but they were booked up. Not bad price for the room either $129 a night. Once complaint i had is the SMOKE.. wow! It was terrible. They need to pipe in that neat selling stuff they do in vegas and in the MGM casino in Detroit. I quit smoking 7 years ago so it really bothers me, but this place was so smoky even if i was still smoking it would still bother me. The non smoking section was tiny with dull games. Had fun! | 1 |
My girlfriends and I just returned from a fun-filled weekend. Casino was huge with a wonderful selection of slots. Plenty of penny slots too! We all felt the slots were loose. We witnessed plenty of winners and did okay ourselves. We did have some trouble finding our way or getting back to our favorite machines due to the large layout of casino but that did not dampen our spirits. We had a great meal upon arrival at the little sandwich shop. Portions were HUGE and could have been shared. In the morning we stopped in at the 24/7 cafe for breakfast and again the food was spectacular. We did share this time and the omelettes were amazing as were the Belgium waffles. Wait staff was very professional and friendly. Overall great experience-no need to leave casino for dining.When we left this morning we stopped in the Take n Go store and purchased some of the enormous cream cheese croissants for the ride home - we LOVED every bite! | 2 |
Everyone was so nice & helpful from the time we walked into the doors til the time we left. The buffet is great & our waitress was great also! I did not run into any staff member that was not friendly & helpful. They also have bingo (which I loved about this casino) the slot machines were generous too. I cant wait to go back its worth the 2 hour drive for sure!!! | 2 |
Decent poker room. Good free shows and top acts visiting the big stage. Lots to do and decent staff. Had lots of fun. | 1 |
Not much of a casino-goer but have seen several shows at Firekeepers. Nice venue but the smoke is insane even with the new ventilation system (used to be worse!). | 2 |
Nice Casino, clean, good slots to play (many are the penny machines) went to the buffet - good selection and it was crab leg day!To far away from my home town to visit more frequently but was a nice stop from my trip on the West Side of Michigan going home. | 0 |
This location is just a short drive south west of Lansing. It is one we prefer over several casinos available to us. Has lots of good eating places. One of the best places to eat pork chops. Several of our friends also frequent this casino. Won a couple of dollars the last visit there. | 0 |
Large casino with several dining choices, a cafe type restaurant, a large buffet a four star sit down and several quick stop diners. large number of slots good numbers of table games a non smoking section plus high rollers area. Across the street is another small casino mostly slots and bingo called the slot palace. | 0 |
My husband and I went here on a whim one day when we found ourselves in the area. We're not big gamblers, but do enjoy the casino atmosphere now and then. Very large gambling floor! The food choices are great, and the atmosphere was just what we were looking for! | 0 |
We always have great time at this casino. The staff and dealers have always been friendly and helpful. The casino is very clean. They have great food and the pool is nice too. The only bad thing is they book up fast so you need to plan ahead if staying the night. | 1 |
New casino with plenty of slots. They offer a drink service feature by simply touching a button on the user panel of slot machine. This alerts staff that you need a cocktail waitress. This service has often taken more than ten minutes for a response and by then its time to get up and move to another machine. The staff however is courteous and always states their name which is nice. In response to a previous comment about slot machine payout at this casino, management stated that this casino pays out way more than 87%. Im pretty sure the reviewer was was referring to one cent denomination in which that was a very generous estimate. Indian casinos are not required to report yearly payout percentages. Nor are the three major casinos in Detroit. I will say however that Las Vegas Nevada's payouts on the strip for 2014- one cent denominations were 88.19%. There is no way any Michigan based casino will come close to this!! This location has no competition near by and please don't be fooled by there statements of paying out a lot when they will never release this information too you. I have been to their buffet twice and have been to dozens of buffets in Las Vegas. There is no comparison. I felt like I was at someones pot luck!! They honestly serve some of there dishes out of crock pot type dishes. Its lower quality food and the crab legs are low quality too. My main reason for writing this review was in response to wait I feel is overrated reviews by the hotel itself. I always give recognition where deserved!! I would highly recommend the NIBI restaurant inside the casino. It is high end food with high prices, but worth every penny and the service is amazing!!! | 0 |
How can I buffet restaurant inside a casino hotel, didn't allow for children to come in, they're are only for old people, not good for business | 1 |
