First the hotel - clean rooms, easy check in, but no blankets! Just sheets on the bed with no other bedding in the room! Breakfast was disappointing. A $5 Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwich at the lobby coffee bar was either expired or overcooked. (See pic) The cream cheese danish looked great, but was hard as a rock!!! The service, however was great! The casino was fun - no luck winning but we had a nice time! Staff was a little slow to respond but were very helpful when they did! read more

Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells - Mystery meat on the bacon sandwich - Casinos Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

Super clean and comfy rooms. The Casino floor is clean and welcoming. Staff is friendly and accommadating. The food courts is decent, pizza, mexican, or asian cuisine. The bar makes good, stiff drinks. The pool is meh, but the hot tubs are huge and jets are strong. They also have a sauna but I didn't test it so I have no opinion to offer, sorry folks. read more

No concern or care at all,we left before midnight and drove back home. Room 2119, just sad that no one cared this was Blood read more

It sucks that they closed the poker room 5-6 years ago. I was a regular there, and I see so many former players at Potawatomi in MKE that travel a couple of hours to play poker there. I'll never understand there reasoning for closing the room. Not only that, I can't understand why they don't bring live poker back, considering that there's only two places to play in WI...either in Green Bay or MKE. read more

This place looked tempting and I wanted to see what it was all about. I sure was hoping for the best. My significant other and I walked inside. We stopped at the Rewards Club. I signed up and they gave me a cool card with $5.00 free play on it. I stopped at a pepsi machine and got a complimentary pepsi with ice. It was refreshing. The first thing I played was Single Hand Blackjack on a machine. The Min Table Bet: $2.00 on this one and I chose that denomination for most of my bets. I played quite a few hands with different bet amounts and even added the Lucky Lucky side bet on some of them. Unfortunately, the dealer got Blackjack and not me. I got up $9.00 for my short session, so that was good. After that, I decided to play at the Wolf Run machine. This one was 1¢ for the minimum. I put in $1 and then used my $5.00 free play. I started off by betting 1 Line Play 1 Per Line to learn the machine. I ended up betting each denomination all the way up until 20 Lines Play 5 Per Line. It also had a Repeat The Bet button, which came in handy to use multiple times. After a good amount of bets, I was up $5.00, so it was time to press the Cash Out button. The Cashier was in a convenient spot and it was fast each time I stopped there to claim each Cashout Voucher. The service throughout here was great. I didn't have any issues. Overall, I enjoyed my time here. I won't hesitate to come back. Date of visit: Aug 22, 2024 read more

First the hotel: I had an accessible room on the first floor that had a sliding back door. It was nice that the "do not disturb" or "housekeeping" were each a magnet to put on your doorframe instead of a paper card to place and close inside your door. There are some insignificant dings in the walls of the rooms where the doors hit the walls. The bathroom had a large shower with zero entry. There was a drain in the middle of the bathroom floor itself. A sturdy seat folded down inside the shower to hold at least up to 500lbs. There is a bench across from the bathroom with a deep drawer underneath. Next to this is a closed closet. There are loose hangers, an iron, an extra blanket. There was a side table next to a soft chair. This was the first hotel on my 11 night trip that still provided pens and pads with their name on them. There is a microwave and refrigerator near the TV. Second the casino: Smaller than most. Smoke free is a definite plus! Masks are optional but completely accepted by security as long as they can get a clear view of your eyes. I just got my players card here for the first time. The employee was fun to talk to. He provided me with all the information that I needed. I played only about $.75 - $1 per pull on slot machines. My best result was a hit that was over $36. But I left it behind before I left. Lol! I felt safe, was well rested, could use the bathroom and shower and had a great time here. It was everything I needed! But a bit more maintenance and/or preventative maintenance type of products for the rooms would definitely be in order! read more

I was very unhappy with our stay.  We almost didn't stay and couldn't wait to leave. The casino was dirty and smelled of old smoke.  The nicest restaurant looked like a food court cafeteria from the 80s.  There was a used bandaid, bloody side up, near the elevators after we checked in around 5pm on Friday.  It was still there when we left at 8am on Saturday.  The bed didn't even have a blanket on it, just sheets.  The staff was kinda nice but needed training. The nicest thing was the trees outside and the waterfall indoors.  This was our Anniversary trip and sadly the worst hotel or casino we've stayed at.  Stay away. read more

I've been coming up to the Baraboo-Wisconsin Dells Ho-Chunk location with my family since I was 8 or so. When I was a kid, I enjoyed their jungle-gym type play place and their kids' games along with the beautiful pool and sauna. I could ride up and down the escalators and ponder the Indigenous murals for hours. When I became old enough to gamble, it was pretty fun and straightforward on the machines. I've had brunch here in the past that was great. I very much enjoy patronizing the Ho Chunk nation, and I even want to take my cousin here when he's finally 21. Pinigigi! read more

Have only one bar in entire casino. Not enough seats around the bar. Plenty of slots and table games, but need a bar in the back section

While it's not as flashy and grand as some of the newer casinos in the midwest (even after remodelling), I do enjoy spending a casual afternoon at Ho-Chunk Casino. There is definitely a large selection of games available and the atmosphere is fairly laid-back. Mixed in with free soda and generous spacing between different sections and it's easy to spend some time gambling either by yourself or with friends. There is also plenty of parking available. On the other hand, there is nothing to really make the casino stand out from other large ones in the Midwest either. But the decor and design do lend itself well to fitting in with the resort concept of the Dells. read more

Road trip to Baraboo. We chose here because we got a king sized bed for $79. The bed is okay; but the room smells like citrus and not in a good way. The room is kind of cold, there is no blanket on the bed. We cannot find anyone to get us one. The remote for the TV doesn't work. Nice enough room. It's clean. Wish I could open the patio door to air the room out; but it's barred shut and would only make the room colder. The room has a microwave, a minifridge and a coffee maker. There's a safe in the closet. Incredibly rude and condescending girl at the front desk. So far I'm not impressed, it's sufficient, but nothing outstanding about it. read more

It's an okay casino but, every 3-5 minutes they stop the music and make stupid announcements over the speaker system. It's REALLY loud, disruptive, and not fun I've been to many different casinos and this is not normal. read more

We stayed at ho chunk casino and hotel in the dells. Gaming was fun. The hotel room could have been cleaner. And I was awakened at 2:30 AM.By the fire alarm And a man's voice saying emergency.Please leave the building now. I left my room walked down to the exit where a bunch of other guests were standing around.No one knew what was happening and no staff ever arrived to let us know what was going on. It was a very frightening experience. Finally, one of the guests Told us it was a false alarm. If it hadn't been such a long drive I would have left for home. I was exhausted by the time I did get home Is the next day. That was a very creepy experience.I don't think I'll ever return. read more

No problems here. From the security guard to the food employees, everyone was really nice. The chef salad was huge and actually tasted good. Machines worked well and were spaced out nicely. No smoking except in a designated area. Free fountain drinks! read more

Would NOT recommend seeing a show at this disorganized casino. When you first enter the casino, there is no signage telling you where your show will be held. Asked a very unprofessional looking security guard and he was clueless! We finally figured it out on our own. We made our way to the second floor to only stand in a 45 minute line to just get to our seats. The line was so backed up because they had only 1 security guard screening hundreds of people with a wand. ONE! The venue was nothing but a stale smelling banquet room. Our seats were banquet chairs lined up in front of a make shift small stage. The banquet chairs were crammed next to one another and if you tried to move, you end up elbowing either the person on your left or right!!! This experience is based on seeing the Commodores on Feb. 17, 2024. To add insult to injury, the Commodores only played ONE HOUR!!!! It was a positively horrible experience and a big waste of money! I would avoid this casino! read more

A friend and I go to bingo almost every saturday night. At the same table everytime there are 2 guys and 1 lady that win 2-3 times every time we go. It looks fishy to us. Also the workers one at a time will sit and talk with them while the game is playing. As soon as they walk away one of those people will win. Can the workers talk to only them while the game is playing and why do those same people ALWAYS WIN? Is there some knid of gadget under their table? Check your cameras and see what is going on. read more

Last minute booking for hubbys birthday. Bonus if you're over 50 you can get a king room for only $79!!! Staff is lazy. Rude. Casino is blah. Says they have a spa. Even has a two page spa menu. When I asked they laughed they don't have a spa. Ha ha not funny you're the dummy's who have it on your site We have a new truck. Parked it in the back 40. Front desk wants the plate number. Tells me we can't check in without it. They only have the grill open which is equivalent to a hospital cafeteria Room is decent. But who decorated in browns ? May want to pass on this one and keep on truckin' read more

Worst experience! False accusations, banned for no reason. No explanation given. Been going here with the family for years with no issues!!! Manager Mona Funmaker Promised to fix their mistake but never cared and never gave a call back from. Also hotel is absolutely the worst. Back pain from the beds guaranteed! Spend your hard earned money somewhere else!!!. If I could sue them, I would! 0 stars!! read more

Yes, I would recommend whole chunk. It's a small casino they do do daily prizes for locals which kind of sucks because we so far from them. A lot of people was winning when I was there. read more

They have nice showers. This is the only good thing I have to say about this place. Good luck trying to find your room because signage is either non-existent or worthless. And "service" is clearly not a thing here. From every person I encountered throughout the casino, restaurant, bar, banquet staff, everyone. Both times I've been here. Food is nothing more than edible. The smoke is so thick in the casino floor, we had to leave. Never been to the one in Madison but praying that's better. read more

They do a great job of security and such at the doors and have lots of sanitizing stations throughout the place. For tables, they have plexiglass and proper spacing. You were supposed to wipe down the slots with a sanitizer wipe after you were done, but from how many I have to wipe done BEFORE playing, I may have been the only one doing so. They also changed around the layout to accommodate distancing, but there were still a LOT of people in there. I do love that they enforce mask wearing and give their guests complimentary drinks. read more

I been coming to this casino for many years. I always had a great experience the sunset grill food was delicious. When the buffet was located on the 2nd floor it was pretty good as well. My family and I stood at the hotel twice this summer and just this weekend. We had to drive to the Dells area to get food because the ho chuck grill closes early and the Mexican restaurant near the casino floor is high priced and small portions. What happened to the grill being opened 24hrs Luke it was yrs ago? We were up late playing slots and the only choice we had for food was the vending cookies, chips etc. It is not family oriented kids quest and the game room no longer exists. The swimming pool area is filled with dust and the hot tub floor has black sandy dirt. The pool water looks cloudy its a shame the lack of up keep. All that remodeling for a new registration area and a snack shop that also closes early. It should of stood the way it was they had food options that were reasonably priced and teasted good. The pool area was also cleaned. The slots were hitting more my husband and I both played over the weekend and no matter the bet the payout was very low. Most slots did not payout at all. That being said I can now understand why the casino is not opened 24 hrs every day. People are sick of wasting money in the casino. They need to bring back sunrise Cafe and have affordable food prices People are spending money in the casino at least make better food options. Also what happened to the weekend entertainment I remember when live bands would perform it made the experience more enjoyable. Who ever ran the casino and hotel at that time needs to come back. I miss the way this casino use to be. I don't think we will be visiting this casino anytime soon. read more

Staying at the hotel for work. This is the second time in the last few months I've stayed here. The first time I noted the hotel room was unkempt. It had dust in areas that should be normally wiped down. Carpets are worn down, etc. this time...this time it's BAD!!! I went to put water in the fridge that I brought. The fridge is filthy. There is spilled juice and other stuff in there. I saw something in the microwave and when I opened it there was a styrofoam container with moldy food in it. Now I'm paranoid at how clean this room even is. No washcloth in the room. Just simple lack of general housekeeping standards. I will not be back here! Housekeeping came at 9:30pm to wipe down the microwave and fridge. They also threw away my leftovers from a $70 steak. I was not happy. The staff don't know how to handle situations like this and have no type of offer or resolution for such an inconvenience. I also called to see what time the gym opened and two staff had no idea. Very odd for employees to have zero insight into their jobs. read more

We stayed here for our anniversary weekend. We had a really, really good time. My hubby called and set up for the room to be decorated, so when we arrived there were rose petals on the floor, the bed, banners, balloons, a bottle of wine.... It was really nice. The room was clean, everyone we encountered was nice & helpful. And even though we lost money gambling - we had a fun time. I can't wait to come back again soon! read more

We went to waste some time. We didn't stay at the hotel, or have any interaction with any employees. All I can say is that the machines were very modern with a lot of choices. My wife put a total of $50 in 4 different machines. We ended up walking out with $125. So I'd say we had a good night. read more

Masks required. BS. Won't go back. I've been vaccinated. Mandates are mostly lifted. Masks no longer required in schools. What makes this place any different I was prepared to stay and spend some $$$. We won't go back. Read other reviews and run away! read more

For someone like me who is not serious about gambling at all, Ho-Chunk is not the worst. If you just want to kill some time and play penny machines for fun you'll have a decent time as long as it's not super crowded (or if smoke doesn't bother you). I am allergic to smoke and when it's busy, it's unbearable despite the ventilation. My last visit was actually pretty pleasant, though - I had minor issues and the smoke-free area was actually living up to its name for once. It was a Monday night, though, so the casino on the whole was pretty dead. Things that most people aren't going to like: limited machine options (lots of repetition), very few non-slot games, drinks aren't free, the bar doesn't list any prices if you do want a drink, the more "fun" machines like Wizard of Oz/Anchorman/etc. don't accept rewards play, the rewards money is hidden in the game menu and you still have to put in real money to activate it, and food options are limited. Things that are good: the Rewards program has gotten me some decent perks despite being among the lowest of low rollers, including a free hotel stay and $25 in house money, the woodsy interior display is pretty, during Halloween they had a really extensive display of creepy props, bathrooms were spotless, and it's easy to access from the highway. Ho-Chunk isn't a top-tier casino, but for a little fun in the Dells area that's not overrun by children you could do worse. read more

It is a shame that I have to write this. I evidently inserted my ticket over another patron's and "took" the money. I was unaware that I did it, but they surrounded me with security in a show of force on the casino floor. They told me it was $90. I gave them $100 even though, as I assume I did it even though I wasn't shown it. I left the casino upset that I was surrounded when I surely would have repaired the mistake in a much less public situation. I then requested the proof and a refund of my overpayment. When ignored I asked again in order to keep it private. They have declined to contact me. So now that they have taken my money it doesn't appear to be as important. Mine was a mistake when I played an unattended machine. Theirs is known, on camera, documented and owed. They lost a customer and don't seem to care. Beware. read more

Jose's Mexican restaurant in Ho Chunk Casino Baraboo. Would not recommend. Food is precooked and warmed in the oven when ordered. Steak had so much fat on it and the combo plate was covered in so much sauce and cheese you couldn't identify each item. Was very disappointed considering it's one of only two options now for eating at the casino. Also sad that the top area of the casino lobby is closed off. Was so pretty up there. read more

I reserved a room at the hotel and showed up with my electric car. There were over 30 spots available at their RV Park. I asked the female manager at the hotel if I could get a discount to park at the RV Park to charge overnight. She told me it was against their policy, then I asked how much to rent a campground site and was again denied. On top of this she and was very rude. I had to get my vehicle towed since I was planning on charging at Ho Chunks campground. read more

We do not recommend staying at the Ho Chunk Hotel. Prices were ok, but the rooms are old and need major updating. When we entered our room it was like an oven. 80 degrees. We figured they must turn off the ac when done cleaning. No big deal. We set it to ac & fan on at 68 degrees. We returned to our room 3 hours later and the temp was even higher. Called the front desk to get a new room and we're told no. They need to try to fix it first. It was already after 8:00 pm and we were exhausted from traveling since early morning. Maintenance came and they were very nice. They said it was all fixed and would cool in 5 minutes. It didn't! 9:00 pm the desk said we could finally have a different room. By this time we had walk down there so many times and it was a very long way from our room to the desk. We were exhausted and decided to leave and go to a different better hotel. We received not one apology from manager or any staff. On the casino side, it's a great casino where we won some money. They are severely lacking is in food selections. 2 places to eat in the whole place. A Mexican buffet or a high priced snack bar with limited choices. We had to leave site and go to a different restaurant in town for dinner. Very disappointed in this Ho Chunk facility and after going there for 20 year, we will not return. So save your money and head to the Torches up north or Diamond Jos across the border in Iowa. read more

Very disappointed, we specifically reserved a room near the elevator for my terminally ill Mother and paid extra for it - when we arrived we were told that there were no rooms near the elevators. The PREMIUM LUXURY room that we had was a joke! The bed linens looked like they had been sitting in a dryer for a week - totally a wrinkled mess (I know that is petty but it was icing on the cake). The beds were hard as a rock with cheap thin pillows on the bed. The entertainment center was missing doors and they maybe had 4 working cable stations. The "ample" tub is just a regular tub. I travel frequently and have stayed at MUCH nicer for far less. Don't waste your money! read more

Ho-Chunk Gaming Wisconsin Dells - Our not so "premium" room! - Casinos Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

I have experienced several casinos in the last year in WI and MN. This one just didnt impress me. First off their players card program was horrible...no free play until you earn 10 points, and 1 point is $10 in play...we showed up at like 10 and usually play penny slots so there wasnt any hope at us getting there... Now we both put in $20, he walked away with $70 and i walked away with $27, so you would think that since we both came out on top it would be better rated, but we just werent impressed with this place. read more

I was staying at the Wilderness for my little sister's 19th birthday when we saw a sign for an 18 and over casino at Ho-Chunk so we decided to check it out. I called down to the front desk to ask for the shuttle and it showed up about 15 minutes later. It was a short drive to the casino and I was grateful not to have to drive myself. When we got there the security told us how to get to the 18 and over casino, It is on the second floor and is very small but they had pretty good slot machines and even had a rewards desk up there. We wound up staying for almost 5 1/2 hours and had a good time. It threw me off because they don't allow smoking in casino's by me and they do here and it smelled terrible. My coat smelled like smoke the rest of my trip. read more

Very fun place! It's always a stop of mine on my annual trip. Very clean and spacious. I LOVE that they have many of my favorite old slot games. Wish the video poker area was bigger too. Otherwise it's a fun place to spend an evening or afternoon. I'll see you in a few months for my birthday! read more

Spent a bit less than an hour on the floor of the casino on Tuesday, 6/26/2012, in the late afternoon. This was our first visit here. First impression: They have a large no smoking section of the casino. Nice! We saw that they had blackjack tables set up in this area, but no live games were being dealt when we were there. We noticed several kiosks where patrons can help themselves to coffee, water and soft drinks; no charge. Nice touch! Video Poker: Yep... they have video poker areas in both the no smoking part of the casino and also in the main room, including a progressive jackpot video poker bank. I played double-double bonus; the dollar game was 9/5. The quarter game was 7/5. I'm a dice player, thus disappointed to see that they had one and only one craps table in operation. To boot, I saw that they only have two dice tables, in total, for the whole casino. Huh? WTF? They pimp their craps game on TV ads, Online and in print, and then only have one dice game going and a total of only two tables for the whole casino? What's wrong with this picture? I didn't play dice 'cuz I wouldn't have been able to get a position... numerous people were waiting on the peripheral and the table was jammed. I was none too happy about this and let my feelings known to the dice "pit" supervisor.... a one-game supervisor at that! (LOL). The casino was busy.... Lots of gray hairs and a good quality crowd. Three stars given due to only having two dice tables for the casino with only one working table on a busy, summer afternoon. Shame on the HoChunk management. read more

Off season gambling looks depressing, I wonder how much livelier it is during vaca times. But on another note, as far as location and gaming offered it's a nicer layout than what we have at home (currently March 2011) in Chicagoland. Free coffee and soda areas. Tons and tons of slots, I got tired walking the circumference of the place searching for my dear friends. A good workout thought at 4 am. Also, AT&T signal blows inside their common areas, WTF At&t. The venue looks brand spanking new, it's clean and the place looks immaculate. I'm saying in comparison to some of the casino's I've been to in and around Gary, IN. As far as card tables and roulette wheels, these are games which they offer very few of in comparison to the hundreds of machines. read more
