Overview
The first place that you think of when you think of great gambling may not be a trip to Iowa. However, the Horseshoe Casino Council Bluffs is a great gambling destination in Iowa. Here are just a few of the things that the Horseshoe has to offer.

Relaxed Poker Play and Gambling
Although places like Las Vegas are full of glitzy gambling spots, they aren’t to everyone’s taste. The lights, the noise and the crowds can be distracting. At Horseshoe Casino Council Bluffs, there is a much more relaxed gambling environment.
Gaming Options Including Poker and Casino
At Horseshoe Casino hotel, of course, there are plenty of gambling opportunities. Table games are especially popular. Craps tables and roulette tables abound. There’s also always a blackjack game to be had. On top of that, though, there are also plenty of slot and video games. In fact, there are over 1,900 of them.
Then there are the poker gaming options. The poker room at the Horseshoe is always running games. There are some for beginners and some for experts. Not only that, but there are many different types of poker games to choose from and at various different stakes levels. So, whether you enjoy trying your luck at no-limit Texas Holdem, Stud, Omaha or other forms of the game, you can always find just what you want to play.
The Sporting Experience
Another great attraction at the Horseshoe Casino Council Bluffs is that you can enjoy the thrill of watching, betting on or participating in various sports. For example, you can kick back, relax and enjoy the experience of greyhound racing at the casino without actually having to go to a track. There are live broadcasts Tuesdays through Sundays beginning at four in the afternoon.
If greyhound racing isn’t quite your style, you might prefer to try your luck at golf. Luckily, there are two great places to golf at the Horseshoe. The great courses are Dodge Park and Westwood.
Dining Options
Every Horseshoe casino is famous for one eating experience, Jack Binion’s Steakhouse. The steakhouse is famous, of course, for its steaks, but it also features wonderful seafood. The great food and service, along with the excellent wine list, will make your dining experience delightful.
Of course, there are other places to dine at the casino too, though. One of them is JB’s Cafe. It’s open 24 hours a day. It features a wide variety of soups, sandwiches, including the mile-high sandwiches that it’s known for, and salads. Also, the bakery at JB’s is not to be missed, especially if you love sweets.
The Village Square Buffet is a great place to eat, especially if you’re traveling with a group. It can be hard to all agree on the same foods, when you’re with several people. At the Village Square Buffet, though, that’s not a problem. You can find foods there from all around the world.
The Shopping Experience
Finally, what vacation is complete without shopping? There are many great malls to visit in the area, such as Oakview, Westroads and Crossroads. Also, if you prefer a different shopping experience, don’t miss the Omaha’s Old Market Shopping District.
