The Garcia River Casino - Point Arena

Personally, not in casinos, but there are so few food options in this area. the hotel is located a few miles outside the city point arena, offering daily specialties along with a moderate menu. Nothing nice, but found both the salat mushroom swiss burger tasty, but the selection of the drink is somewhat limited. expect each employee to be very upbeat.

Food was over priced and not the greatest. We didn't gamble here just stopped in because we were hungry and everything else was closed. Wish we had found something else.

Nice clean regulated casino when you go in there you know there taking care of the machines the best again with the covid

We own an RV Park by the Petrified Forest in AZ. We wanted a break so we spent a week driving the Pacific Coast Highway from LA up to Point Arena in one of our campers for fun. We stayed at an awesome RV resort called Morro Dunes in Morro Bay. We saw the seals. Ate $100 in seafood at the Santa Cruz Pier. We fished in San Francisco and caught a killer striped bass and so much more. We were going to head home from San Francisco but saw a dot on the map indicating a casino and got excited. We hadn't seen a casino during the whole trip. Weve visited casinos all over this country from Atlantic city to Boloxi to Vegas. We decided to drive up in the middle of the night and gamble some before heading home. We had zero problems on our entire trip until this bit. We trekked hours up to this casino and arrived about 2am. We realized the casino closes at 11pm (who does that). We checked in with a night guard who made us fill out a liability waiver. The first security guy was awesome. He asked where we were from and we told him AZ, he mentioned he'd visited Flagstaff before and we told him we owned and ran an RV Park near there. Had a small conversation and he told us the casino opened at 2pm and we said we'd wait so we could gamble and eat before heading out. When that guard left in the morning he literally waved and said goodbye to us. Queue the next shift security officer. Gonzales. Gonzales immediately marched over and told us we had to leave because we never checked in. We told him we did and he said we couldn't clean our camper there. We weren't cleaning it out. My husband had picked up inside our camper and carried the bag out to pick up trash in their parking lot (Heineken bottles and caps) before Gonzales showed up. My husband was bored waiting for them to open and he's a clean freak. Sincere gesture. Gonzales was Polar opposite from the overnight guard and treated us like complete garbage. He yelled we didn't pay for the spot. He yelled his tribe owned the casino and he told us to leave. We dry camped 6 hours waiting to spend OUR MONEY at this business and we were told to leave at 8:45am and accused of not checking in when we absolutely did and even cleared it the night before. I have traveled for 16 years and no business has ever treated me this way. We didn't NEED a free space we chose to head to this casino to have fun not realizing until we got there that they close early and don't open until the afternoon. Soooo...what did we do? Headed out to a nearby casino that appreciated our business. We travel a LOT, will never consider this place again and will urge others to avoid this dot on the map as well. After only seeing 1 other camper in the parking lot with us, I know why.. these people are jerks. Spend your money elsewhere!!

The service was terrible, the food was not very good, and we were asked to leave before closing. I will not be returning.
