OUR COMMENTS: NO RV CAMPING... BUT LOTS OF CAMPING AROUND THE SANTA FE AREA This casino is located North of Santa Fe and as I have mentioned in other reviews this are of New Mexico is a must see... The games here leave nothing out, with a full selection of table games and slots including Roulette which is a nice touch. Dining include the standard Buffet and a cafe which has good food at a reasonable prices. No fine dining but that certainly should not prevent you from enjoying and outstanding day at the casino with lots and lots of gaming.

OUR COMMENTS: NO RV HOOK-UPS But the good news is that there are several in Santa Fe and the drive back to the casino is not to bad only 15 miles. Mary Alice took the car and went back while I and my two oldest grandsons RJ, Mc, went rafting. WOW! Santa Fe has lots of outdoor activities and it is a must stop for us RVer's. Back to the casino. Many many slots Mary Alice said and most of the kind she likes. She eat lunch at the buffet and said it was OK. We all had dinner at the Gold Dust Restaurant next door to the Casino and it was GREAT. Oh, back to gaming. The casino has craps and cards and although it is on a small scale it is good playing. Now remember this is a second had report but it is reliable. Mary Alice knows here casinos! 1-800-455-3313

OUR COMMENTS: WOW! RV HOOK UP'S This is a 24/7 casino and for us, RVer's, it has a great advantage...with 35 RV sites. The casino has about 20,000 sq feet and has over 500 slots. Not the largest casino but plenty to keep Mary busy. There are 8 table games including Blackjack, Roulette with the Blackjack have $5.00 single deck and $2.00 shoe play. Dining includes complete breakfast, lunch and dinner menus. Gas station and market are within the complex and provides reasonable prices, well at least when we visited. OVER ALL ---- A GOOD STOP!

OUR COMMENTS: THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE ARE RV HOOK-UPS THE BAD NEWS IS THAT THERE ARE ONLY (5) & IT IS $25.00 PER NIGHT WOW! The comment WOW was about both the price and the location, "not many people use the hook-ups", hello I wounder why. But the casino is well worth a visit and of course the area between Albuquerque and El Paso is wonderful to see and worth the drive, the long drive. Slots at the casino area plentiful with all the newest gaming machines. I even played for a while but I could not stay away from Baccarat or Blackjack. This casino has roulette and craps to play and almost anything in cards. I did not see any 4 card poker, which was a good thing at least from my view. Dining is good at the B B Q with plenty of food but the best was at Wendell's fine dining. The wine list was great and the food excellent. A GOOD CALL! 1-800-545-9011 1-505-464-7777 CALL FOR RESERVATION IN THE FIVE (5) HOOK UPS OR BETTER YET JUST STAY IN THE PARKING LOT.... I WOULDN'T PARK IN THE RV PLACES AS YOU NEED A RIDE TO THE CASINO AND NOT A GREAT LOCATION.. SO WHY STAY! MAYBE THEY WILL WAKE UP ON THIS ONE... EVERYTHING ELSE AT THE CASINO IS FIRST CLASS!

OUR COMMENTS: Well, NO RV CAMPING... staff not helpful at all, and the web site is not operational... We did not stop the first time but this time we did. We parked in the parking lot overnight and as the weather was cool it was fine. The casino is good and has lots of slots and table games. Dining is ok, but nothing special so we can only give it a 2. The RV park has been closed and it appears as if it may not re-open in the near future. I left our business card and maybe just maybe we will hear from the casino staff.

OUR COMMENTS: YES - YES - YES RV CAMPING WITH HOOK UPS $10.00 PER NIGHT good price! Gaming has plenty to keep you busy most of the night. Oh, the casino is not a 24/7 casino but it is open until 4am and on Thursday Friday and Saturday all night... For us 4am is plenty most of the time. The slots are numerous with all types and kinds and Mary Alice enjoyed her best pick. The poker was Blackjack and Pai Gow Poker and of course Roulette. Dining leaves a little to be desired although the prices were low but the quality do not measure up to our standards.

OUR COMMENTS: NO RV PARKING! Located about 10 miles from I 40. on Highway I 25. The casino has a lot to offer but sadly we have no hook ups. There are over 1,500 slots and guess what that is more than Mary can play. But she did find her best picks...sorry I can't tell you what they are. Thirty plus table games which I love. This location against the mountains is beautiful and with golf as an added attraction it is a good stop. But remember no RV camping! Table games include Blakjack, Caribbean Stud Poker, Pai Gow Poker, Mini Baccarat which we don't see often, Roulette, Craps and Let it Ride. Dining is well above average and we will give a good rating. The "Council Room Steakhouse" has very good food and not French Gormet but good American type food. I would like to see the hours a little longer in the steak house but they are what they are. The buffet is looking good although we did not eat there. Also there is a deli for fast eating so you can continue winnnnnning! JUST A REMINDER IT IS NOT A 24/7 CASINO

OUR COMMENTS: NO RV HOOK UPS You have to look to find this Casino but it is worth a stop, although it is only 24/7 on Thursday -Sautrday Slots are looking good here at Santa Ana Star Casino. We found all the major machines with over 1,000 to through money in and of course win. Table games in Blackjack - Craps - Roulette - Let it Ride - 4 Card Poker - Texas Hold'Em - Omaha which includes High/Low games and of course Stud. Dining is not great but with several offerings. The standard buffet at the Feast with a Southwestern look and taste but with many other options to pick from. The other restaurant are more like grills with fast food type of meals although much better than street fast foods. NO RV HOOK UPS 1-505-867-0000

OUR COMMENTS: RV PARK WITH FULL HOOK UPS $26.75 with Tax but NO GAMBLERS COMPS..... To bad.... Gaming is a full service casino with some limitations. Blackjack with single deck Pitch Blackjack - 3 Card Poker - Roulette and Craps. No Texas Hold'Em ???? Slots are a little smaller than some New Mexico casinos but over 800 seems to fit most peoples needs. I know Mary Alice like these machines here as they have her favorite. No I won't tell you! Dining is not a high priority here but it is a pleasing fare. The food looks good and a reasonable price but there is not a lot of option. The standard buffet and a couple of snack bars, just OK! We did not eat here. TODAY NO RV HOOK UPS NOW HOOK UPS JUNE 10, 2008

OUR COMMENTS: NO RV HOOK UPS OR CAMPING Limited hours BUT CLEAN LITTLE CASINO & is 100% smoke free casino (small place) Lets start with this a beautiful place to visit. Above Santa Fe in the City of Taos with beauty surroundings. This location for The Taos Mountain Casino is second to none in New Mexico. The city of Taos is an art community with great shops. Now back to the business at hand, although I feel it is important to tell about the area as well as the casino business. Slots, well, it would be sufficient to say enough for an hour or two of play. Table games have only two to pick from, Blackjack which is good for me although Craps would be great. I am not sure the reason for the lack of variety but that is what it is. 1-888-946-8267 NOT A 24/7 casino By the way there at least two RV Parks worth a look. A GREAT AREA TO VISIT WITH A LITTLE GAMING
