Comanche Nation Casino OK Review
While many US casinos are run by Native American enterprises, casinos in Oklahoma are the exclusive preserve of tribal businesses, as mandated by the state authorities. Most are parts of larger groups, like this Lawton casino, which is owned and operated by the Comanche Nation and has three other venues in Elgin, Walters and Devol. Comanche Nation is situated in the Southwest Great Plains Country against the picturesque setting of East Cache Creek. If you’re interested in learning more about the Comanche Nation, it’s well worth visiting the Comanche National Museum and Geronimo’s Grave when you’re in the area. Comanche Nation casino is at 402 SE Interstate Drive, has a gaming floor area of nearly 40,000 square feet, is open 7 days a week throughout the year and operates a minimum gambling age policy of 18.
Casino Games
Comanche Nation has a comprehensive casino offer that rivals many larger establishments. There is plenty of room alongside the extensive range of slots for table games, poker, dice and lottery games as well as electronic versions of table classics.
Table Games
At Comanche, Nation poker is a major feature of the live games offer with standard games as well as tournaments, held in a separate room away from the noise of the main floor. Various types of poker are played, including Let it Ride, No Limit Holdem and Fortune Pai Gow. Table games include several types of blackjack as well as roulette and dice games like craps and hazard.
Slots
There are over 700 slots from many of the biggest developers in the industry, including Queen of the Wild, Spartacus Gladiator of Rome, Buffalo Gold and the outrageous Monty Python and the Holy Grail Killer Bunny.
Features and Amenities
This is a sizeable venue but it has a sharp focus on its gaming and dining facilities, so don’t expect designer boutiques or cabaret shows. It’s all about the fun and the food.
History
Comanche Nation casino opened in May 2007, just four years after the legalization of gambling in Oklahoma. Like virtually all Native American casinos, it has a very stable history and has remained under the ownership of the Comanche Nation since the very beginning.
Dining
There are two restaurants and a bar. The Numunu Grill (named after the Comanche word for ‘the people’) serves American classics like chicken fried steak and fried catfish with great sides and salads. You simply have to try the amazing variety of burgers at Comanche Burger Co. For cocktails or beers, including three craft beers brewed on-site, call into the War Pony Brewery
Accommodation
While there’s no Comanche Nation Casino hotel, Lawton has several hotels less than a mile from the casino including Comfort Suites and Hilton Garden Inn.
Loyalty Program
The Comanche Rewards Club advertises itself as the best casino players club in Oklahoma. As a member, you earn points on every game you play which can be redeemed for free play credit, food discounts, free hotel stays and entries to exclusive promotions and special offers. You can use your membership and benefits at any of the Comanche Nation Entertainment properties.
Comanche Nation Casino OK Review
For a resort-level casino experience that offers the intimacy of a smaller local establishment, Comanche Nation gets it exactly right. There is a huge amount of choice in the casino itself and the food and drink are excellent. It’s a very popular and successful place which people return to time and again.
