Had a excellent trip to Potawatomi via our friends anniversary party bus! This was my first visit and would make a repeat trip again. Typical casino, staff were all friendly to interact with. Lots of people but plenty of room at tables and games. Over 2000 slots to try. Social distancing isn't vivid at this Casino. Machines were being sanitized periodically by staff.

Was there for a wedding and had a nice time. I'm not a big gambler but gambled a little bit with not too much luck. Had an incident happen to a friend of mine. His wife won $300 and had just cashed out and had the voucher in her hand and a degenerate ripped it out of her hand and ran away so be careful if you win any money. Not sure how the casino handled it in the end. As far as the wedding it was really nice and the staff did a great job. Rooms were very nice and clean

This is like most casino's.. There's the good and the bad. Always great when you win money! Not so great when you don't (but they aren't in business of just giving away money). While there on 3/6, it was noticed one soda machine wasn't providing ice (which is on the south end of the floor just east of the bathrooms) for about a month. The machine that actually produces ice needed the Pepsi line replaced (the syrup was empty or bad). My girlfriend mentioned it to a staff member that was cleaning the station and their response was "that's not my job", to which my girlfriend stated "you have a radio, can't you contact the person whose job it is?" I don't believe the employee actually did anything but continue to clean the station. I was having an issue with an older machine which an employee came to me after pressing the "change" button because I couldn't figure out why it wasn't printing my ticket (I was confused as I never played that specific machine before). It turned out just before the employee came over I discovered I was still in a bonus free spins. When the employee did come over, they were very polite and understanding of why I was pushing the button when not needed. Only thing two things I wish would happen that I'd see more of. 1 - Have security keep an eye on things a bit more. Often when I'm there, we are with my girlfriend's 91 year old grandmother. There has been times where it's beyond obvious where others are sitting there watching here to see if she sets her purse down open so they can swipe money or anything. It makes it so that if we wish to gamble, we have to stay close to help prevent it. There has been multiple visits that has been noticed and if we say anything to security about it, the person is bound to say we're "racist" or something along those lines. Yet we've seen this before in other venues, which race has no factor, it's just people preying on the elderly. 2- Have security ask guests not to take up seats at machines they aren't playing. Very often there's a machine I see I'd like to sit at, but a couple is sitting side by side with only one person playing. If you're not going to play a machine, guests shouldn't sit at it or steal a chair to sit next to someone else that is. On another note, previously on a visit my girlfriends phone was left her phone behind in the smoking area. Luckily it wasn't stolen but an employee found it and brought it to the lost and found which we were able to recover.

The hotel was very nice. Our room was large, cleaned, and well kept. The bed was soft with 4 nice pillows. The bathroom was cleaned and fully stocked. The casino had many fun games, we enjoyed our time on multiple machines. Very disappointed when the restaurant closed 2 hours earlier and the bars on the casino floor where under staffed.
Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
I would like to know why I haven't been giving a free hotel room. I have been spending a lot of money there I think I deserve at least one free hotel room can you please let me know why I haven't got one and there's people still coming from Chicago don't play like that and they give free hotel watch answer me please my name is Shirley Johnson my pin number is 1991 thank you
I was self banded 12 years ago
It would be nice to have but they have a lot of great slots. To chose
Well they do hit, I am first to admit not as frequently as they did prior to our Governor passing the law that nixed a competing Casino in Kenosha. Switch machines, vary your bets and try going at different times. Best advice I can give you or anyone with limited knowledge of your gaming style. Good Luck?
Yes you can smoke in the casino. Do Not smoke in your room though or they will charge you $200 dollars
You have to spin🎰 a lot, it's about the points you get in a year, but, if you go on days when they have 5 times the points, or 3 times, u can jump up really fast, without spending that much money. Look on the calender they send you, or on their site, they have certain days for 5× & 3×'s, your points go up very fast.Total is 25,000 in a year to get to Topez. Good Luck. 🍀, Also, remember, keep going, or you'll go back down to Ruby if u don't spin for a year.
No, but for gift shop and restaurants they do
World's cheapest casino. Try Oneida. Went there one time ....got 75 plus 2 $25 vouchers. Poto used to give me $125 now I get $15. Not worth my gas to go and a slap in the face to boot. Screw you potowatomi!!!!!
The question is questionable. Bingo died with lock down. We all know it. It's time to accept and move on. Sorry for your lose man.
It takes quite a while! Call the customer service number on your card. They can tell you exactly how much play you need for a host. Perhaps you just need to request one!
They are one of my clients and they have an inspection next week and are planning to open immediately after with limited services.
Honestly I would call to find out. I was treated out there by my God Sister so we just played the slots.
Yes there is free parking in their parking structure! It has 6 floors and tells you which floors are full or empty.
Yes they do have this dude however you should call so that someone can give you the specifics on pick up times and drop offs.....i hour this was helpful 🤙
Yeas there ate over 4p rable games and 200 slot machines and there are 4 bars
It's not hard to win. It's hard to stop gambling once you've won and are ahead. Know when to stop. Always set a limit for yourself.
Masks are no longer required to enter the building, there is still no smoking allowed inside though.
As soon as I find out when they have them again.
I feel that the machines remain very tight. I'm not sure I'll continue playing there. The last three times I've been there the machines barely pay out enough to continue playing for awile.
Due to Covid, the buffet isn't open. However there is two restaurants open in the casino.
I guess once everyone gets vaccinated! I don't know
Yes they require a mask. Slots only as of 4-10-21
I didn't see any plugged in camper in the garage parking but it can't hurt to call.
Senior day is on Tuesdays. They are on hold for now.
Only thing I ever lost or had gotten stolen was my money, and that was the tight a$$ machines that took my $$$$$$$ .....
If you want less people go during the day on a weekday. If you don't care about people then yes Friday and Saturday.
No pool or hot tub. There are rooms available with a whirlpool tub.
It's only 21 and older to enter the casino. Will get carded when trying to enter the casino itself.
It's just bad luck. Try a different game.
90 minutes
You can stay there and I felt like the rooms were a bit on the pricey side when you really arent spending much time in there.
Far as I know the casino will be open 24! The food court is 8am -2am , the hotel 4pm chk in , 11am chk out!! But best to reserve a spot for the hotel. I hope this helps!!
Yes
Do not under any circumstances attempt to play while banned. (I work here.) Even if they dont catch you walking in, if you win a jackpot while banned you DO NOT GET TO KEEP IT. Instead the money will go to charities in Milwaukee.
Call hotel and ask for group sale rep. Its coolest place in Milwaukee.
Unlimited, small fee/percentage charge like anywhere else
Use the kiosh or the Fire keeper desk. And on a machine there at the casino.
They do have bingo on new years eve. It runs most of the day
Shiela was banned. Please ignore her.
We are players only. You might want to google your question.
No Pottawatomie does not have RV parking over night. You would have to park at State fair grounds. Its about 10 minutes away
ON THIS TUESDAY FEBRUARY 20 2018 I GOT CHEATED AT POTAWATOMI IF U HAVE A RED CARD PEOPLE WITH THE GREEN CARD OR BLACK CARD GETS YOUR WINNINGS I WON BIG TIME & I SEEN MY WINNINGS GO 2 THIS SENIOR CITIZEN THEY HAVE THEM MACHINES RID UP BUT ONCE I CAN REALLY PROVE HOW THEY HAVE BEEN RIPPING ME OFF TRUST & BELIEVE IM GETTING ALL OF MY BACK PAY & I AM GOING 2 FINE THEM ALSO 4 THE STRESS THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING ON THEM CHEATING ME 4 ALL OF THESE YEARS SAD BUT TRUE GOD DONT LIKE UGLY U GREEDY DIRTY PEOPLE Y'ALL GOT ME OUT OF 3000 IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2018 BUT U CAN'T EVEN GET A BONUS OR LOAN SMH
Most of the casino allows smoking. There is a smaller non smoking section on the 3rd level near the bingo hall.
No pool wish they did have a pool or at least presonal pool for the rooms meaning presidential suite that would have been sweet. Unfortunately no pool in or out the rooms hey you can always go to the Sybaris. They have specials going on for the winter months where you can get a 400 room with a pool and jacuzzi with a slide for like 250 a night love it there im a member for life.
Their open 24-7, if you looking to stay overnight, i would call 1st.
Depends on how much gambling you do. Gambling at the casino does have it perks
We've had no problems and stayed there twice in the last 2.5 years
Eat at sports bar. Food is much better. With covid protocols, I don't feel safe with other people touching the utensils to serve themselves food. Or coughing over the food. I don't see it ever opening again? Alot of questionable people eat there??
That might prove a bit of a challenge. I've never seen one. But, there's a will there's a way. There are signs that state you cannot park under the rail road but it's unlikely you can Jimmy that in there anyhow.
Don't even waste your money here this place is such a rip off they have the tightest slot machines in the country potawatomi would rather pay the state fine and pay the customers they have Monopoly in Milwaukee it's the only casino with a hundred and fifty miles of a city truck drivers save your money don't spend it here you be better off going to a gas station slot machine
They moved them to the 3rd floor that suppose to open November 1 2021
Yup normal
No. However they encourage you to wear a mask.
Not yet but I think soon but don't waste your money at potawatomi they got the tightest machines in the country it's a total rip off they rob you without a gun even though you go there willfully you could spend $500 and walk out with 45 cents in your pocket this place is a total scam and should be investigated
It is available when it it shows up on your menu like if you swipe at the kiosk and you hit time for emotions or your profile and tell you if you have rewards points so once it is says like $10 rewards points or whatever they should be available immediately or if you got certain days to use them between some of the machines there though you don't you can't use rewards play but it'll be like a white and red circle. Stuck to the machine and says do not can't use FireKeepers points or rewards play on this machine
At the casino at the kiosk
No!!!! NO BINGO GAMING SINCE COVID STARTED! Who know's when it will return!
I don't think bingo will be a thing for a while, if ever again. Everything is electronic now, no dealers or staff except a limited number of security guards and cocktail waitresses.
No table games they are closed because of the pandemic. They have video tables
No news on when bingo will resume
Not yet . Hopefully soon 🤞🏽
Good question, the only thing I can think of is the demand for power.
We do
They have mircowaves only in the suites though
Unfortunately outside right, they need to install a more proper air filtration system for inside smoking
I don't know where carter at ,this casino located in Milwaukee,Wi
I won $100; quit for the night.
Very clean place to always cleaning when I go to the car
You can go on line or reserve a time to go up there
If you have had one before just go to the kiosk and you can have another one printed out right there.
So far one number no person just recording, taking elderly mother want to know procedure to get her in while I park car
Still limited by reservations only. 9am to 12am.
No Sir Slots Only
Next month, probably when Pride Fest start up so like June 6th.
Called there yesterday, and they are still closed.
It's all about playing the slot machines and earning points that way they reward you with free stays etc
Well I called. Apparently they are still open. Smh
This is laughable! Its people like you, spreading misinformation and fear, that are the real problem.
Depends on the time of day starting at 5 dollars and goes up to 10 dollars there are more expensive tables also
And unless there is a entrance that was not obvious, then walking through the smoking sections is the only choice. Asthma being a concern, maybe not the best entertainment choice for like peoples.
You're best off calling I knew they do have a shuttle bus
Yes you get to go to the kiosk and spin for fkc points for your birthday and they might give you something like a promotion, plus you can go any day throughout the month of January
Through the kiosk by swiping your card to check for promotions and if you have fkc points check on any slot machine
When they get new machine they like to have them up front. If u are looking for a special machine ask any slot workers.
Wednesday and Friday nights, 4pm-9pm
Sun thru thur 11am to 4pm and sat and sun noon to 7
I am not able to answer this
Balcony is for guests staying in the suite
No idea I play slots and Black Jack
It is true that you only pay taxes on winning over$1199, but you will pay State taxes up front.
aug 12 13 15 2pm 2pm 8pm
Not understanding the question, if you really what to know the answer, call the hotel.
Depends on what color card you have
No it not if it was I would be on it
Call the Casino.
Call 1-800-pays-big. The call center will have that answer for you hopefully. I'm not sure
Call the Casino.
I am not sure. I do see it
Yes they do. May be little or enough. Its an awesome place to go to and just to get away. Friendly environment, great food. Fantastic
Call the Casino , check their website.
Call or go on there website
Yes
Apologies I was at work but you can look on the website every day has different times and some days have long sessions some have short sessions they also have a glow light event, early bird session
They have slot style machines with variations of Black Jack. But no tables with video. Only live dealers.
My mother is a frequent player and she gets them every month. Whereas I only go there twice a year and will only receive mailings after I have visited.
No you can't get a credit card and what are you thinking this is?
Red
The tier levels reflect a combination of how often you play and how much money you play. Not everyone of the same tier level receives the same thing because of this. The higher your tier level, the better your comps usually are, but are almost always exclusive to the type of gambling you do (if you're a slot player you'll get slot match play, if you play table games you'll get table match play).
You do not need to be a registered guest to use the casino. I am not a big casino person so am not sure as to the Texas Hold Em rooms. Nice rooms and food though. Overall a good experience.
No kids are allowed in the bingo hall. The only place where the kids are allowed is the food court across from the bingo and the restaurant and coffee shop in the hotel. The gift shop is the other place that they are allowed to go.
Good on line and view the rooms they are very nice and comfortable for getaways I highly recommend this hotel/casino.
Night owl starts at 7:30PM
They will pour it in a machine that counts it
My nephew is a worker there. He deals with the table games . He gets a decent hourly wage around $15/hr and that may not include tips. He enjoys the work. But to me, he had wacky hours.

Another tip. Once a member of any casino's Players Club, they figure your comps by average daily play. So.....if you stay there, or go to eat but dont gamble and use your card, you're screwing yourself. Play $1,000 on Friday, but wake up Saturday and use your card to eat you now averaged $500/day instead of the $1K.
Yes. Definitely through a phone call or perhaps an email. But I think calling is your best bet. No pun intended.
Check ! I know that the hours are goify fir a couple of the ines in Potawattomi . One or two are actually closed on Monday's .
Just like any casino, they are out to make money. They are set up to only pay out so much. They can say not rigged, however i have watched last minute several times the last reel do a last minute jerk to next when i would of won a big amount several times. They are set up just like a computer, therefore can be programmed. Considering the Indian set up of casino's they can get away with anything. One hand washes the other.
What happened?
Alot
They don't tell anyone about the paybacks on the slots because they don't have to. Thanks to our moron governor, they only have to pay 80% back which sucks. And they get a fine when the payout is below that level, but they figured out that what they make covers the fines and then some.
fkc is a card for players points, I have saved 150.00 in points. you can use the points for everything.
I believe they have space available for birthday parties.. not sure
No they do not but Uber is available
10 table and up
I have seen them parked along the road going to the casino on a side street
Their security is heavy, they'll card ya even if ya just walk through the casino
Yes they do, I walked by after Summerfest at 2 in the mornin' and a game was goin' on.
No you must have a valid state issued id or military id or passport
If you win a lot of money you will need it. They take the taxes out before you get the money.
Call an ask and they will be. be glad to tell you that cuz I have no idea
No. Pin numbers safeguard it.
You have to become a Firekeeper member
If you have to go through the casino to get to their buffet which you do,then no you can't into the Buffet. If you go to the valet/hotel entrance they have a breakfast buffet and don't have to enter the casino nor will you be carded if you go directly to the restaurant.
Potawatomi is a very nice and fun place to gamble. The downside of the casino is, it stinks and reeks of smoke. In addition, after spending a few hours there, a shower is needed quickly and fresh clothes. Just sayin....
The ones I have stayed are nicer than other hotels ive Paid for.
You sure complain alot. Pink on meat, pop issues.etc. you sound spoiled
Yes but not in most of the restaurants
Yeh. There not very big but they do have them.
Sorry I don't but keep your hopes high because someone does
Yes they have certain area where in can smoke and certain slots areas where you can legally
No
I don't think so but, randomly for special occasions they might
Get off the slots, learn how to play cards and you can win. The house always has the edge but be smart and you can do ok.
Same girls you would see anywhere else.
What time did you go on a Friday Anita?
A couple of years ago they had tournaments every Sunday afternoon and other days as well. Just wondering how long ago that changed.
What happens if you a lady leaving from what l seen you can't trust security they not Armed l would not go.Ho Chuck not that from milwaukee
I am sure they would let you but I don't know for sure
Really don't know what happened to them only what they won't the public to know could have been much more.
I'm assuming u were trying to say the security sucks? Couldn't exactly tell. But as someone who knows a lot of the people working there I can assure you they have both armed and unarmed security guards. I don't know what u consider a 'kid' but most of their security is mid 20's to mid 30's. They're just as secure as any other casino. I've never once went there n felt unsafe but I'm sorry if you have had a unpleasant experience
Drinks are not free as in most casinos.
I will simply say, where there's money, there's corruption, this is sad because up to 10 years ago Potawatomi Casino was a fun place where you could win a few bucks, today I would have to say your just throwing your money away. However The Northern Lights Theater is still a great value.
Nothing it is free. The more you gamble the higher level your card is the more perks.
Lose all your money........go home......come back and repeat 30x. Then receive a $10 match play.... Then come back and lose 20 more times and get your free room.
Go back in there big n bold n play....they will love you again. If not, NEVER go back!!
9pm and the food is always good. Best days to go is on Wednesday and Friday for the Crab legs.
Call cr industries they might want them they r located in Cudahy
you'll need to get a win/loss statement from the casino go firekeeper club desk.
The circuit events are the 1-9th. Main events are the 9-12th
Otb is off track betting
Fwiw my husband has been an employee for 8 years and loves it. The benefits are great too
YES
Google NYE Party Potawatomi for more info. They're planning a huge blowout
Hard to see. Top floor. Take a drive. East by summer fest grounds
You can wear what ever you like, just please be respectful of others.
Depends on how long it takes to bingo, each games is about two and a half hours long
Bingo is in same area as casino.
thay play every night and you can also call 1800pays big I really enjoy my self when I go so go and have fun
