This is our second stay here. The service is great. Everyone is so nice. It feels like a real resort Pros Friendliness of staff Size and value of meals Coffee at the coffee bar is solid Everyone tried to use our resort money and give us best value. Also after one stay our resort offers were great. Pool was 5 foot 6 deep and really accessible. Staff was able to give us a room as per our requests. (Near elevator. And they asked us which was nice ) Room rate was a great value. (This trip was on a blackout date for holiday. We had two free room offers which would have been good any other day) Cons Valet is free for hotel but slow Beds even in an accessible room is ridiculously high. Make sure to approach from the highway coming in from Joplin we got lost on back roads with our gps. Exit 1 off the highway was easy. read more

My wife needed to go to the bathroom and I suggested to come here to go to the bathroom. I wanted to check this casino out to see what games to play and was not planning on playing, but my wife put some money into the machine and I said okay we are playing and saw some games I never saw at other casinos. I ended up signing up for the card and got $5 dollars in free play and then if I earned 25 points, I get a $20 dollar food voucher. I do not know how the point system works, but I got 321 points. I used the voucher on red bull drinks. They have a good assortment of slot games, but I focused on bingo slot machines as I ended up getting quite some red screens. My biggest win here was $500 dollars and I did hit another $300 dollars. I wanted to stay longer, but needed to head to Ameristar. I played other games, but did not have much luck, but I was low rolling the play. They have beverage machine which is a plus. Would definitely come back here again. read more

Downstream buffet...during the week or on the weekend...they do a real good job with their buffet. There's always quite a bit of variety. Things are seasoned to have flavor. Always have some fried seafood options in addition to various other proteins. For what you get...the price is a good value. Weekend nights...usually have the crab leg add on...which is way generous in what they'll let you have. read more

Downstream Casino - Assortment of buffet items. - Casinos Near Me - Quapaw, Oklahoma

I visit this casino two years ago like six different times I was extremely disappointed in their bathroom for woman as well as their slot machines due to being very tight. Bonuses were not provided frequently. When I visit this casino back in 2023 I went Monday Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Saturday. Throughout the year of 2023. I noticed that a lot of seniors went on Tuesday the casino so here I am 2 two years later checking it out on a Tuesday I was hoping for a change however there was no change. Machines are still very tight to which I played forty of the penny machines..... I would sit next to someone & strike up a conversation. This time being an elderly gentleman and found out he was a local and was NOT happy with this casino but like he said he & many other seniors don't travel far and it was the closest casino they could drive too. He also stated "per his words we are SR's we don't have a lot of things to do so we gamble" ...... I find it pretty sad that not even SR's are happy with this place and the years they have been going to this casino..... One Sr in particular was playing a game called "Aztec Temple" to which I went and sat next too & played the same machine. I couldn't believe my eyes on how many times 2 of the needed symbols came up for bonus but never NOT ONCE did the third symbol come up for bonus.... He was betting .80 cents & I was betting $3.00. And we BOTH were getting the same type of spins but never a bonus..... I felt emotionally angry thinking COME ON!!! He is only betting .80 cents compared to my $3.00 and he never got much of anything... I thanked him for his time and input about his feelings as well as sharing how a great deal of his senior friends/ family feel about this casino and moved onto the next machine and experience the same things (very few & petty action from the casino for Senior members ) I walked the whole casino ( which is average size) and saw 90% senior folks gambling and betting low beats ( simply sad that there is no big fun or win for them) I understand slot velocity but when a casino has all machines on high Velocity it's not just seniors who lose. I then went into the woman's restroom and still could not believe that they still had kindergarten low height toilets for woman... yes a few and I mean a few taller ones but 90% of the toilets belong in elementary schools..... I had to laugh at 2 woman I heard talking while I washed my hands saying that they needed to utilize the toilet paper holder to help them get off the toilet...leaving me with the same cold hard fact and the truth of the woman's restroom is it needs a grownup make-over Will I be back to the casino you ask or will my following care to go.... Mmmmm more than likely not for the remainder of this year or next but who knows what 2027 may bring To my following here and on FB & other sites, thank you all for your messages/input... I completely agree the name suites the casino.... DOWNSTREAM thank you & keep on gambling read more

conner is the best host. always have a great time the suites are great and the steak house is alsome. ihave won many jackpots over the years and tell all my friends to go there read more

to start with the staff and housekeeping are very helpful and nice.. great casino atmosphere. however before they changed there player cards i was on the cusp of gold..they gave me ruby ,wich is only one above the lowest..you have to earn 25,000 plus points to move up. i am here almost every week ..if you dont earn those points in so many months they start you at the beginning again..making it impossible for middle class players to move up.. now they have taken away the comp free rooms,food money is gone now and you only get a small percent discount..Q-play money has gone down. these perks were the things that allowed me to come here and play more often.i am sure there are plenty of other people who feel the same way..also the machines have been tightened up as they dont pay nearly as often or as much as they used to..i realize your not always going to win.. but when your spending a thousand or better each time your there and just losing it gets old..years ago i left this casino a 5 star review. this place is always busy and there making buckets of money..can't tell you how disappointed i am with this casino now..i may be looking for a new place to go.. read more

This is probably the best casino in a state that has the worst casinos in the country. But this is what happens when there is no unbiased state ran gaming commission... The casinos in Oklahoma may as be ran by the Mafia because they have no one but themselves to answer to and it shows by the malfunctioning machines that should be out of order but are up and running . People do not realize that if all the buttons on the do not work then machine is malfunctioning which legally makes all plays and plays void... And if there was a unbiased state ran gaming commission things like this wouldn't happen ... The people in Oklahoma got a very bad deal with the casinos due to the lack of an unbiased state ran gaming commission... But downstream is so big that it's hard to win there anyway so they can hide the fact that are cheating you . Like it would do you good to complain because you are complaining to gaming commission that owns the casino ... The best idea is to just not go to any casino anywhere that is in Oklahoma... I have friends that work for the Nevada gaming commission that visit from time to time and after one trip to River Spirit casino they will no longer go to casinos in this state . She told me she saw 3 violations that would get a casino in Las Vegas heavily fined and even shut down and could not believe that it was allowed to happen with no penalty to the casino owners .. But any if you have to gamble in Oklahoma then Downstream is the best of the worst choices you have in Oklahoma. read more

From the Phone representative's, to the front desk employees their customer service was definitely lacking. For the cost of over $200 + fees & taxes a night W/not being able to check in till 4pm, to early check out at 11, it's definitely NOT worth it!!! IF you need a late check out cost $25 for every 30mins!! Housekeeping in resort was NOT white glove, remote was disgusting for just one example! For being a non-smoking room, there was smells of smoke everywhere, burn marks on the carpet, on one wall there was "marks" left & nails where they had taken down some wall decor!!! We were VERY disappointed & if we didn't have a wedding to attend that evening, once we arrived we probably would've looked elsewhere!! Do better Downstream!! read more

Went for our anniversary night out and was very disappointed. The buffet wasn't what we thought it should be for the price on a Saturday night. No steak and very little vegables. Also took in a show and the seating was so bad, couldn't see the stage or the big screens. It was so hot in there that I couldn't stay to watch much of the show was feeling sick. We will not go back, there's better casinos in the area. read more

My dad got violently sick from the food from the sports bar here on 09/13/2024. Please be weary of what you order

l struggled hard to give this a 3 star. The Buffett was $21+ and terrible!! I would have left hungry had it not been for salad and rolls. The desserts weren't even good. Most of what l remembered and liked wasn't even there anymore. Very little to choose from and nothing looked good. Wish I had grabbed a burger at one of the restaurants instead. Then there's the beds...... so broke down if you get near the inside edge l swear you'd roll off. l hate paying for a good room and getting a bed that you can't even get comfortable enough in to fall asleep in. Place has really gone downhill. Pros- very friendly staff. The rooms were nice ( if you didn't want to sleep) and they were clean. Seriously hate to give a bad rating, but with the money they rake in they could and should do better. read more

I don't know what y'all are trying to do out here running out of food and calling these steak fingers. These are not steak fingers and they are completely inedible. Gross How long have these been sitting under the heat lamp? Are y'all trying to kill people out here? Also, if you are not a local and just passing through then using their reward card means nothing. After spending around $1200 on slots and table games, I asked if I could get a comped or reduced price room and they told me my rewards wouldn't even show up on my card for another month. Lame all around. read more

Downstream Casino - Nasty steak fingers! - Casinos Near Me - Quapaw, Oklahoma

I'm from Arkansas and Hot Springs is non smoking with a smoking area. This is an all smoking casino with no non smoking area for your non smokers. Not appealing to me. I stayed there for a hunting trip in Kansas. I will definitely go back to hunt. Highly unlikely I will stay at the hotel casino again. Too much smoke for me!! read more

I've only been to Downstream a couple of times. However, tonight was awful. We drank at the main bar for about 2 hours and we ALWAYS tip great. At 8:30 PM, the band just got started and the bar tenders were very rude to everyone, as the next shift called in and they had to shut the bar down. The rudeness was not necessary to the customers. I get it that they were tired and wanted to go home. Whomever is in charge of the bar/employees, get your act together. MANY unsatisfied customers tonight! We will not be back!​ read more

Gambled here for years with VIP treatment, a reasonable weekly Qplay, promotions, and events (though, I've never been called on to win any event cash giveaway, ever!). Winnings weren't great, but for a casino it was okay. However, back in October '23 everything changed. Spent thousands and won pennies (if even that)! Their Rewards program went downhill, as well as the food at the buffet. Everyone seem to get the short end of the stick. The reward amount went down. People had to pay cash $ directly to get any kind of discount, including Veterans. There are now stricter rules on how the rewards are to be used. There's quite a bit more that has happened, however to wrap things up, you will spend more money & spend less time and walk out with nothing. read more

Attractive resort casino with nice and friendly staff with just one giant flaw. Each time I've been here I've been impressed with how friendly everyone is and how they take great care of the regulars. If you valet you may see the staff taking personal interest in regulars they know by name. Or helping elderly or people with handicaps with patience and professionalism. The restaurants inside are good too, the steak house is great. So the big flaw that keeps us from coming more often? The unbelievably bad smoke. Let me start by saying I'm from Las Vegas and go there often for work and family events. Most LV casinos long ago figured out how to clear the air and ensure the casinos, hallways, and restaurants stay somewhat smoke free and clean smelling. Downstream seems to hold it all in. Its visibly smoky and hard for some people to even breath at all. I feel bad for the employees who have to work in this all day. Each time we have come in, I could not wait to get out, shower and wash my clothes! Thats too bad because there are some great restaurants and entertainment there. If you don't mind the smoke and like casinos this is a comfortable one with attractive decor and great staff. read more

It' my understand downstreme casino owns quapaw casino. I will never go to one of these casinos ever again!! At quapaw casino it was so bad that it seemed every spin was a loser and bonuses payed nothing!! I asked the cashier what the percentage payout was and she said it was privileged info! I told ever that i had never seen it that bad and she laughed at me! I went to get my wife to leave and cash out. I told the cashier i did not appreciate being laughed at, she instantly got on phone to security and refused to cash me out!! I'm lucky to get out of there!!!! They are a sovereign nation so they have their own laws they can do anything they want and you have no legal recourse is my understanding! If you want to do nothing but lose and can't play for awhile and get disrespected and fear instilled in you, be my guest go to downstream casino or quapaw casino, GOOD LUCK, your going to need it!!! read more

Was approached within 5 minutes of me walking in and asked for ID even tho I look every year of my 39 year old age (if not more). The security there acts like cops on the beat. They immediately escalated the situation after I asked why I had to show them my ID. Threatening to kick me out. They said it was a random selection to run my name? Being a professional gambler and being asked to identify myself while no one else had to was unsettling to say the least. Problems with security persisted for unknown reasons and I'm not going back. Being an Onyx member at Choctaw and Elite at WinStar (both top tier cards) security is there to make VIPs happy and comfortable. They did the exact opposite. Avoid this place like the plague. read more

The slots are (too) tight. My best bonus round yielded $400 but it did not come easy. The blackjack uses 8 decks - at least at the tables I played at. After 2 days at this casino I think it's time (for me) to steer clear of native American casinos - too hard to win in them in general. The (female) pit bosses seem very uppity and up tight, I don't know why. I never heard any screaming from winners the whole time I was there. Did not see any hand paid jackpots. The waitress service is decent - they come by every 20 to 30 minutes it seems There is only 1 place to cash in chips - a far inner corner of course And it had 1 person behind the counter on a Saturday Some of the dealers were cool I did not find this casino very smoky But then again it was not that crowded when I was there The VGT slot machines are hit & miss - mostly miss in my opinion I walked into the high limit tables area twice Both times no players to be found Another thing is there are not enough table games The casino is 90% slots read more

After driving all the way from Houston Texas, after jet setting from around the world, I was told by a front desk troll named Dena and the floor manager josh, that had zero patience or knowledge of whom we were, where we were coming from or what we were here for, hardly help us and in fact was rude to my client. I've worked in casinos before, all over the place. Vegas, California and more. Having told me that there are absolutely no rooms you could get us in until 4:00 p.m. on Thursday is absolutely Absurd. Because if you guys had somebody hit a jackpot right now that is one of the first things that would be offered to them complimentary of the casino in the hotel. I can honestly say I will go out of my way to never stay at downstream again and neither will any of my clients and fighters. Way to lose an entire league of professional fighters that like a low key get away. read more

I don't ever leave bad reviews but I was so incensed today after being ripped off at this casino. After a long drive from Chicago, I stopped off at Downstream for a little R&R and possibly an overnight stay at the resort hotel. Sadly once I experienced the following scam they run on unsuspecting travelers I opted to push on to Tulsa. Sitting down at a table to play a few hands I was informed that it would cost a .50 cent surcharge to buy into $200 in chips. Fine, I can live with that. Upon playing a hand I was then informed that I was misinformed, and it was in fact a .50 cent surcharge for EVERY HAND I played at the table. LITERALLY HIGHWAY ROBBERY! Or in this case interstate robbery. This greed is unparalleled and something I have NEVER experienced at any other casino. It's not enough that they already have a license to steal your money legally but they also charge you a .50 cent PER HAND surcharge if you do not have a casino player's card. I didn't bother to ask how much that would cost me. The casino and the surrounding resort seem nice enough but why must they nickel and dime every tourist and player to finance their greed during a pandemic no less! It seems too many people want a little piece of your ass. Downstream wants a piece of you every single hand. It shakes my faith in humanity. Greed will ultimately kill you. The upside of the deal is that I beat them out of 100 bucks to finance my hotel room. I didn't stick around to get robbed anymore. I pushed on to Tulsa, OK to give them my money hotel money. I'll probably get a better night's sleep there anyway. read more

This place was s all high tech gambling. Machines are not fun to play. Their buffet on Christmas Eve was sad. $16.99 for food that 85% wasn't warm and should've been. The meal was worth about $4.00 Should have eaten at the sports bar there. At least they used to have a decent prime rib Sandwich. read more

My wallet fell off my wristlet while visiting the casino. While it was safely found and turned in, the staff was amazing in helping me. They all were attentive and making sure I had been helped while I waited. I appreciate the helpful staff. read more

Omg the spa here is probably the best I've ever been to. Plus the people were just the sweetest ladies ever. We spent the whole day there almost. It was amazing. Food at Red Rock was incredible. The bands playing were good too. We aren't big on gambling so I can't really speak much to that but you don't have to gamble to have fun here. Thanks for the amazing weekend! We had fun! read more

The casino is dark and extremely smoky. The machines do seem to have a decent pay back though. The hotel rooms are just okay. They have several options for food. I'm a bit sad that they took out a bunch of modern games such as ElectroMax, Fortune Rooster, Griffins Throne, Cleopatra 2, and some others and now have a million HexBreaker cabinets... It was better when they had a wide variety of modern games. It is large casino and it's always busy. It is not my favorite casino but it's not terrible. Also, the High Limit Room has no video slots?? read more

Downstream Casino - is A-OK. Let me start off w/ I am fiscally conservative (read: TIGHT), so gambling doesn't do a whole lot for me. On vacation, my sister really wanted to hit up Downstream, so I dug deep. First impressions about this place - it's not horrifically smokey. It's clean and very well maintained. We were there on a week night, so not busy at all. We played various slots and had a few drinks. The waitresses never came around - - there weren't that many of them and maybe we didn't look like high enough rollers. No worries, I can walk to the bar and tip the bartender! Drinks are priced reasonably and just for signing up for the Downstream card - you get $10 toward a food purchase. I would go back, but I wouldn't kill myself to get there. Oh yah, it's CRAZY cold inside and I am warm natured. Bring a jacket! read more

Downstream Casino - Playing some Hee Haw slots!!! - Casinos Near Me - Quapaw, Oklahoma

Time to update my review! I've stayed and played here many times. Valet is super. The Nee spa is top notch (check my review on it). The free live entertainment is always good with numerous machines around to play and listen to music. Forget eating anywhere but the Redoak Steakhouse. Yes more pricey but so worth it. I've never had a bad steak. It's quiet and smoke free. And can be intimate for special occasions. Plus a discount with your players card. We have enjoyed room service for breakfast in bed and a nice late checkout. read more

I am staying here on business and was shocked to find something this large in a small town near Jolin, MO. When Id rove up to it I was shocked at all there was in one small area. I had to go to the gas station and that alone was one of the nicest ones I had been to. This had only raised my expectations for the casino and hotel I was about to arrive to. At first I was confused on where the hotel was and parking, but once I managed to get it together it became a very pleasant experience. The hotel itself is a very nice and clean place which is always a good sign. The staff was really friendly and I got checked in and to my room in little to no time. Positives- there was free valet parking for guests, retaurants within the hotel, and the room was one of the most spacious ones I had been in. The bathroom was definitely different and loved it. Negatives- I got in a little late and wanted to order room service, but when I looked at the menu the chouces were limited and nothing special/ appealing to eat. Also, being from states that smoking is not allowed inside it was something nor typical for me to see. There were guests from both the hotel and casino smoking in the lobby as well as around the area. I couldn't get away with it and did not find it appealing one bit. Overall I was very pleased with what I was expecting from this casino and actually am thinking about making a personal trip back there with some friends. Definitely a good weekend get away! read more

Came here a while ago with my wife for a night away. We thought we would get down there and get a room for the night. Well the front desk said, with little care, "we are booked for the night and no rooms are available for you." The lady that said that then proceeded to look past me to the person behind me and ask if she can help them, Letting me know I was nobody and that she was done talking to me. Thought to ask about a room waiting list, but I didn't, thinking that it wasn't my job to suggest a simple customer service solution. I can accept you are booked, but not the ugly response that followed. We booked a room then and there down the road at Buffalo Run. Not five minutes after I receive my confirmation email from Buffalo Run for my room, the same lady that didn't want to help me, got on the intercom and said there were rooms now available for the night, for only x-dollars!!! I was pretty pissed at that point. Wife and I played a few machines and then left and made our way to Buffalo Run. Where we got our room and then played until late in the night. Seemed like a nice place, hence the extra star, but zero decent customer service left a bad taste in our mouths to ever return here again. read more

Terrible experience. Their player club doesn't give you anything. You could spend $500 and they will give you a dollar in points. The buffet tastes awful. Don't come here, trust me. read more

The payouts have gotten a lot better over the last few years and they have a whole bunch of new games. The best times to come and play are on Fridays from 2-4 pm and Saturday nights around 8. It's usually rocking in this place and the winner bells are going off left and right. I would give them 5 stars but can't because they took their Tuesday night Seafood buffet away! Downstream had it going on Tuesday nights and the crab legs were delicious! Your server would personally bring them to your table and they were really good in providing refills. However, they still offer crab legs during lunch or dinner as an add on for $10 a pound and half price on Wednesday's I think. I overheard a fellow truck driver inquire about them getting rid of Seafood night and they said it was too expensive?? Yeah ok, lol. This place brings in millions on Friday and Saturday alone yet crab leg Tuesday was too expensive. Interesting..Anyway, there is also plenty of truck AND RV parking with hook ups provided. I'm not sure how much it is per day for that but that area is always packed with really nice RV's and campers. We have never stayed at the hotel but we have looked at their rooms and they are super nice. Spacious king suites and the pool is beautiful. This casino is my 2nd favorite in Oklahoma and we always try to stop in and play some good ole VGT bingo machines when we're on our way to Illinois. read more

Possibly one of the worst stays I have ever had anywhere. The staff, and I do mean all of the staff, was seemingly unwilling to help at any point during our stay. Any person we spoke to was either rude, unaccommodating, or flat out apathetic. For the price you have to pay to stay there, it was very unsatisfactory. The buffet restaurant in the morning turned us away twice, the first time that they are only open for breakfast until 10:30am and in the rooms and at the front desk of the hotel, it says 11:00am. The second time was at 10:00am and they could not admit anymore parties in the restaurant because they were short staffed, the entire half of the dining room was empty. To also add another layer of incompetence, the elevators in the tower we stayed at in the hotel continuously broke down, one completely non-operational the entire stay (there were only two). I don't mind taking the stairs HOWEVER, there is no stair going to the lobby which literally left my party stranded on our hotel floor - this cause my 70 year old aunt to have to go down to the bottom floor near the pool and walk uphill through the grass, over bushes, to get to the lobby to then go to dinner, causing us to miss a reservation. The staff was completely unapologetic for this, the security manager was even rude about it. AWFUL, AVOID AT ALL COSTS. read more

Unable to provide 11am check in on a Monday morning when hotel empty , even offering to pay for an extra day. Room view in second floor overlooked bleak roof and parking lot.

They seem to have lost the lesson of cleanliness that was a criteria throughout covid ... every machine is sticky and covered in cig ashes...a lot of them are so sticky the keys dont even work. Did not enjoy our time there. Will drive a little further next time we feel like gambling. read more

We stayed at the RV park at Downstream. It was very clean and the shuttle bus picked us up when we called and took us right back to our RV spot after we finished playing for the night. They let us stay 2 nights free with a red card. Which anyone can get at the casino. read more

I started with $200 and ended with $400 - and from some of the reviews it seems that's quite a feat! I may quit while I'm ahead! The wings at the Legends Sports Bar are amazing. There was a special of AYCE for $10. What a steal! BUT the casino drinks are NOT free. They got me on that at least! :) read more

Stayed here for one night and was pretty disappointed with the room. I guess, for $114.00 (inc tax and the other fees) you get what you pay for. Although, I did think I was paying for heat (room was so cold despite turning it up to 79). The bathroom was even colder which sucked when coming out of the shower. I requested slippers and towels and was told they don't provide slippers. For a casino, hotel, spa I was kinda surprised but maybe that's because pechanga does it and I assumed they all did. The TV didn't work at all. I guess it was the satellite feed but we wanted to lay around and watch tv (and be warm) and it was clear that was not going to happen. The shower handle was broke so you were either freezing cold or almost scalding hot. Oh, the overwhelming smell when you enter the check in area. It was WOW. smelled like a teenager, who got his first bottle of cologne, and completely doused himself with it, so as he walks the smell just lingers and it gets caught in your throat. That smell. I didn't care for it. Check in was easy and quick. Room size was nice and bathroom looked newlyishly renovated. I probably won't stay again but I will come back for the legends bar onion rings. They are hand made and delicious. read more

We had a great stay, nice rooms, generous comps, good selection of machines, over 2000 machines. We are from West Coast where Keno and Poker is popular and this casino has those machines. Most that we have been to do not. The buffet was very good. The selection was more than adequate but not huge, thus the food was fresh and very tasty. Our bell man, Sean, was excellent and Dusty also at front desk. Both went way above and beyond what we service we would normally get in California.will go back if ever in the area. read more
