Chinook Winds Casino Reviews

The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Rooms are okay... pretty comfortable. Always clean. Looks like they are remodeling. This should take them from just okay to fantastic, I hope... We always have ALOT of fun at the Casino and on the beach. The ENTIRE staff at BINGO are AWESOME! WE LOVE THOSE GUYS!! AND RUTHIE TOO!!

Only place you can rent a smoking room without it being completely disgusting (suites only - regular are disgusting). Great coffee in the front office - try to grab a cup in the morning as opposed to the K cups in the rooms; it's a lot better. Buffet in casino is okay dining for breakfast only - lunch/dinner foods are mediocre at best. Bingo half days (on Sunday) definitely worth it. Free soda/coffee while gambling. Definitely become a Winners Circle member as you receive member rates for booking rooms and rack up points while gambling (it's free to sign up).

We have been going there for a few years and the rooms are ok nothing to get excited about very noisy for a casino you would think they would have nicer rooms

Crowded, loud, food was good but all the lights and sounds were distracting. Although it's a casino, what do you expect, their whole business model is gambling addiction.

I wasn't impressed with our room how ever you get what you pay for I guess

They were very nice to us and had a wonderful Buffet

Great time, great new atmosphere, friendly staff, wonderful buffet and we left with$200.00 each plus change.

Nice casino. First time going. Had dinner and played some. Won some money. Not bad. Plan to go back.

This is a lovely casino right on the beach. The buffet was excellent as were the rooms. This is the second time we've stayed here and we will be back for more.

The hotel and Bartender get 4++ stars. However, the casino smells terrible. As soon as you walk thru the casino doors, you get smacklnkd with smoke. I asked the guard at the entrance, who jokingly referred me to the " no smoking" part of the casino. If those were the non-smoking parts, I would hate to smell how nasty the smoking parts were. Also, the person working the front door was hateful. Didn't even spend the free money that we got from joining the points club.

Chinook Winds Casino is a great place to visit however I do not gamble but it's got that it has nice rooms and they sit right on the ocean have a beautiful ocean view they've got a game room that's big for the kids to play in its in Lincoln City so there's lots of shopping there is the outlet malls Chinook Winds as a great place just to visit if you don't or if you do gamble either way they've got Bingo Etc

Husband I went for dinner mextex night. Food was cold no flavor. Price wasn't bad service for drinks wasn't slow. Dessert bar was great and salad bar selection was good and fresh.proba ly wont go back to buffet though

Nice casino with all the typical games and food court/restaurants. Parking was good. We would certainly go back when passing through.

Wherever you like to do winning some money eat at buffet or ala carte after regardless winning or loss jus got out loss
Your tennis sandals and walk bare foot by the sand on the beach have your own experience see you there

We had a great time eating dinner at the steakhouse. Food was good and the service was great! For the casino, we had fun with the machines but the smoke smell was overwhelming for us. Other than that, we had fun!

Looking for Vegas style fun without the hustle and bustle of the big city?
Escape to the beach and just... B R E A T H E

Great food, fun games and top notch service all the way around. When your done at the tables or the buffet, take a load off and explore the magnificent Oregon Coast.

Be sure to pack your sandles, some ear protection and a wind breaker. Wind makes those beautiful waves and gets those kites up high in the air.

No matter the temperature, once you see it, I guarantee you're gonna want to be out in it.

its a decent casino. The drinks are overpriced, tons of slot games, the "club" is very small, but the overall atmosphere is alright. If your in town its the biggest thing here.

Buffet is over priced for the quality of food served, no one in our 5 person party was pleased with dinner or breakfast, casino smelled strong of cigarette smoke, even in the non smoking area which was very warm I asked a server if there was any area in the non smoking area where there was cool air he said no, the ceiling is low and all the machines make it extra warm in this area. Employees were very polite and friendly. Free soda, coffee and juice in the casino.

One of my favorite casinos! Waiting patiently for them to reopen

Never pans out. People that say that it does, are big liars.

The location is amazing. The casino was clean and easy to navigate and the people were friendly and helpful. The slot machine area dimly lit though which made it hard to see at times.

It's okay. The casino is somewhat small and can feel crowded when there's really not many people there. The buffet upstairs is lacking to put it nicely. The biggest thing the casino has going for it is that it's on the coast.

I finally won, yay! I do reccomend the drive to Oregon to play. Bonus is you have a change of winning and you can also enjoy the beach.

Lincoln City is one of the most diverse cities when it comes to the Oregon coast. It has everything. Gorgeous beaches, great food, coffee and a casino. Chinook Winds offers a little drop of Vegas right here in Oregon. Lots of machines and plenty of tables. The place has cleaned up throughout the years as well. The food is pretty good too. We went late one night to see if the Buffett was still open, it wasn't (after 10pm), but they still offered decent "bar" food at the deli on the main level behind the waterfall feature. It's a good place to try out when you want to escape the beach house for a little while. Good fun. The cigarette smell, which I normally despise, isn't too bad here. They're filters are working great! Haha. Try it out if you're in Lincoln City.

It's always fun staying at the casino right in the beach. Good view and the transport to the casino and back to the hotel is quite efficient. The pool and hot tub is well maintained and perfect for family swim. I never win at this casino so if you dont want to break the bank to maybe win it might not be the place for you.

Today was my first visit to the casino steakhouse in Lincoln City and very good service but the food was very much on hold and to top it off I ordered a takeaway and stand up that someone already tried to find out if it was good

Went to play bingo on mothers day. Had a blast. Pay outs were amazing. They gave all the mothers a treat bag filled with goodies. Loved it, friendly staff. Ordered clam chowder and a chicken burger from the deli. Good chowder.

Great time and the staff was amazing. My only complaint was the DJ should taken requests from customers. Especially a birthday shout out.lol All in all you guys did a great job with masking and having hand sanitizer for everyone.

It was our first visit and we enjoyed our time. Gambled a few dollars on their old and new games, watched some craps and had a drink at the bar. I thought it was cool that you could order drinks right from the machines. Free soft drinks upstairs and there was a tribal event that was going on too. We got to check out the various vendors but never did find where to purchase the fry bread!

I love this place the people are so friendly and very helpful I live two hours away but I still have so much fun

Spent a few hours here getting lucky. First time having actual fun putting money on the table.

The rooms are nice. The food is good. The staff is friendly. The air is a little smokier than I would prefer. Overall nice casino :)

Staff is incredible. They make sure you feel welcome and comfortable. The whole experience was top quality. Exactly what a fun night at the coast should be

A fun place to go. After you play you can take a walk on the beach.

The rooms were clean. We had a beautiful ocean view. I so enjoyed our stay there. The casino has a good variety of slots.

I love the scenery inside that they made it's super pretty and I love the buffet food had it once amazing! I'm not a gambler with anything at a casino but i do like to dine at one. They have soo many choices of the buffet foods but to be honest alot of casino's do. But I do love how this casino looks inside and how huge it is.

GROSS OVER PRICED BUFFET!!
$25 each, same price for Spirit Mountain Casino which is 5x the size with more variety. I mean come on, Hometown buffet has better and more food for much less. BAD FOOD. BAD PRICE. BAD EXPERIENCE. NEVER COMING BACK.

It was clean! Attendants were always cleaning when someone left the machines!

Won a little, lost a little more, but played for a while. It is a clean facility with plenty of parking and a wide variety of slot machines.

We love the Casino and Hotel Thanks Yung for the great service.

I went to the casino and I had a fantastic time. There were no rooms available which was a huge bummer. The whole area was actually sold out. The staff is really friendly at the casino. Overall I had a great time.

Sunday Brunch was fabulous with everything from breakfast fare to seafood and desserts. Would recommend to those with a large appetite!

Great seafood restaurant! Elderberry balsamic vinegar and fresh made bread. Outstanding service.

They need to update the rooms, but it's great being right on the beach & close to casino?

New Game Added...Russian Style Roulette
They can t even keep their air conditioner running properly...do you really think they purify the air?

Specifically booked a non-smoking room but when we arrived they told us they were out of the non-smoking rooms and had to put us in a smoking room. We decided to give it a chance and go see how bad the smell actually was. When we walked into the room we noticed a giant hair ball on the floor. Not sure what kind of cleaning crew they have but clearly they don't take the room's cleanliness seriously. The room had no AC, no ironing board, no soap or shampoo. All basic things you'd expect from a hotel room. The hair ball was the last straw. Because of the hair ball they allowed us to cancel our reservation with no fees and we went over to the Best Western for the weekend. Best decision I've made in a while.

I drove from Aspen to Chinook Winds..( on purpose )..was treated really iffy..I don't know if it was because I was in an RV..or they just don't like tourist Dollars..I don't want to ruffle any feathers.. Not a complainer..But if I'm writing RV ing Articles again, I'm telling everyone to go to Seven Feathers or Taos.. And no slots paying anyone anywhere.. The place was packed..it was crazy loud with bushels of scandalous looking Women.. but not worth the hundreds in fuel and dawdling Service..I would say get better at HR and train the staff Better..

A good place to stop for a reasonably priced meal with attentive service in several sit down places, coffee shops and deli. Plus all the games you could wish for.

Friendly dealers, fun side games on the blackjack tables. Clean. Beverage service seemed a little slow on its own, but the pit boss was happy to call for backup. I like that the building was designed to capture ocean breezes to keep the air inside fresh, but hubby complained that the smoke at the slots was pretty bad this last time. I didn't notice at the blackjack tables this time, but no one was smoking near me, either.

They have multiple conference room of various sizes. The steak restaurant is also very good. I did not gamble while there but saw table games with 5 dollar minimums.

In Lincoln City we found the casino had some gaming entertainment like other casinos. The food we had was good. We did not stay there, but I wish we did. It is a very pleasant place.

Needs more tables. Non-alcoholic drinks are free. Club DJ's are hit or miss. Most of the slots appeared to be penny slots. Still managed to have a fun time with my wife but mostly because we got lucky and doubled our gamble money!

Food great the person helping in the kitchen great people good price

Aside from the beautiful ocean side view. It's average. The only thing we don't like about it, is that everything is in a separate buildings. The suite is separate from the lobby, the regular rooms are also separate from the main lobby. There's no clear identification (room numbers or letters) on the buildings. Pool access is separate. Pigeons and pigeons droppings are all over the place. The main casino is also in a separate building. You either have to take your car on a rainy day or their shuttle service. Although It's not too bad of a walk either.

This is tuff employees are either extremely nice and helpful or just unfriendly and don't like to be bothered. But only experienced a few several times. Been here over 100 times my odds - have been better here. I'm still in the hole even though. I prefer this casino over Vegas and Reno's and ive been to all of them. spirit mountain casino has them all beat!!

Ate at the buffet here. Arrived just before lunch and caught the end of breakfast. Short line and short wait. Seated immediately after paying for our meals. The food was fresh and seemed to be seasoned well. it was quite tasty. Other places just heat up food and put it out there without seasoning usually so this was a nice surprise. Not the largest buffet but for sure a nice selection and the salad bar and dessert options were very good. Will visit here again. Recommend this buffet over the one at the other casino on Highway 18. That one is larger but its also overpriced, bland and the staff is not as friendly. Often times there is also a long wait as well. I will visit Chinook Winds again as my first choice.

Had a great time at the club, other than the girl DJ she's not a people's DJ. She doesn't talk to the people as she's DJing. I think that's really important time be in touch with your crowd she was not, and she also was very rude and ignored you no matter what not even some eye contact. Very disappointed with with her!!

Said they where open 24 hrs and they don't open until 10

Just came in and spent a couple hours there to play some slots. Had a pretty good time. Lots of different machines at different prices

It is so sad to see so many zombie like humans spending precious time being so lost.

Let me be clear. I DO NOT COME HERE TO GAMBLE. I just go here with my wife to pig out on the buffett. But yeah, i guess you could do some gamblin'

Great place to take your family or for a vacation and fairly priced and great activities to keep you busy just wholesome fun

Pretty fun casino for what it is... Sometimes they bringing some headliner musicians.....

Small, crowded, not a lot of variety. We decided not to stay.

forced to use hand cleaner every throw of the dice and run by two men that did not know the game and pit boss that did not care .

I don't gamble. Came here for a wedding a few years back and had a great time on the beach as well as had some fun watching my friends gamble. Good staff, free fountain drinks and good food for what you pay. Granted the food is expensive.

Clean quiet safe and fun! Amazingly Clean casino and hotel staff was super friendly!

24 hour Deli makes this a great late night stop after a night of drinking

I never received an email confirmation as I was promised when I booked the room. When I checked in the rate was considerably higher than I was quoted. And now I m stuck paying it. Very overpriced. We went to enjoy the pool and it was a bad experience. Every person in the pool was coughing like crazy because of the chlorine levels. It is hot, humid and difficult to breathe in there. Also dark with no lights on yet it s open until 11?!? The doors to the rooms slam shut. So loud. So the room next to us going in and out al day and night literally sounded like they were coming in and out of our room. Staff was friendly. Location is nice. But the switching up of the prices and terrible pool did it for me.

Like all casinos it is an interesting place even if you're not a gambler as I am not. Pretty Smokey place though since they allow smoking seemingly everywhere. Not as big inside as it appears outside.

Machines are tight good food upstairs in rouge room

Fin place will return but get the staff up to par on service

Very safe environment. Restaurant upstairs is wonderful, great view and the foods incredible!

The steakhouse serves chicken breast covered with steak sauce and shrimp cocktail with a red horseradish sauce. The rice pilaf was pure garlic. Will never eat there again. Drop a 20 in 4 different machines and never one more then a $.40 win. The food is no good and the machines are not fun to play.

Entertaining place, not very expensive but very very smoky. We did have a really fun night.

Smaller casino but still really great. The dealers were helpful if you aren't exactly sure how to play a game. Great food up in the Rogue Steakhouse as well. Our waitress was awesome!

The siletz buffet is excellant..slot machines were tight..
