Presque Isle Downs Casino

We visited the Presque Isle Downs Casino and only spent about an hour in the casino. The following are our comments about what we saw and observed. We did not try any of the bars, or restaurants at the casino. This is a casino only facility. There is no hotel with this facility, although there are motels and hotels in the area.

Presque Isle Downs Casino –  From penny slots to Virtual Blackjack, Three-Card Poker, & Roulette, you’ll find a wide variety of choices and denominations to suit your gaming needs. At Presque Isle Downs & Casino…they  are the Home of the Big Jackpots! Look for their Progressive Slots conveniently located throughout the casino.

Presque Isle Downs CasinoThe Presque Isle Downs Casino has over 2000 slot machines and a number of virtual table games such as blackjack, roulette and several others.

There is ample parking at the casino, all surface parking which means on busy days there may be a long walk involved to get to the casino. There are two entrances, with Valet service at the main entrance.

The casino is nice, there is no hotel and there are lots of slot machines. There is also a high roller area as well. The Presque Isle Downs Casino is a combination casino and race track . It is similar to many that have sprung up across the country were the race track has been struggling and the casino addition has meant that the racetrack can continue to operate.

    I really dig what you write on here. I try and visit your site every day so keep up the good writing!

  2. We would like to know if you get a birthday buffet with your Roarin’20’s Players Club Card. If so, do it have to be on your birthday?

  3. Some casinos will provide you with a free buffet in the same month as your birthday. We could not find any information about this casino providing a free buffet on your birthday. We do know that casinos in more competitive markets will provide this sort of reward, however we have not typically seen racetrack casinos providing these kinds of rewards.

  4. Hello. I see that you don’t update your site too often. I
    know that writing articles is time consuming and boring.
    But did you know that there is a tool that allows you to
    create new posts using existing content (from article
    directories or other websites from your niche)? And it
    does it very well. The new articles are unique and pass the copyscape test.
    You should try miftolo’s tools
