We went for the Tecopa boat ride and had breakfast outside.
Can't beat a $2 round trip ticket and I think they have free coupons in the local paper
Waitress was awesome and food was good. We both had the eggs benedict.
Just sitting outside and having the lake view was like being on vacation
Casino is so nice being no smoking but didn't win anything.
Only negatives were having to wear a mask even on the boat and casino and the bar didn't open till noon
I think that was the first time I was ever in a casino without a beer in my hand:p
Still had an enjoyable morning together and will go back

There’s been a few mornings that I’ve woken up and wished that the bar hadn’t been open over at the landing the night before.

Years ago I would have the boat already to go when Mrs EZ got off work at night and head over to the old casino for the prime rib special
Then go out on the california side and watch the stars
There wasn't a boat on the lake
Gave you a whole new perspective of the lake and where we live:)

Before COVID we would take the toon over for dinner. Not bad, but I wish they would have built a bigger facility.

We stayed there for a couple of nights with the boat at the docks. Lake view room on the top floor for less than $175/night all in. Hard to beat.

The new casino and facilities are pretty nice, kind of miss the old restaurant.
If you're taking the ferry be advised it's usually the Dreamcatcher on weekdays, which isn't all that bad.

I’m really surprised they didn’t build a big resort style pool (similar to The Nautical). It would have been a huge draw.

Does the Holiday Inn Express on a PRIME LHC location have pool? Holiday Inn must have out bid Motel 6. :)

Yes but it’s not a place you want to hang out at - it’s right on the driveway.

What did they do with the old Havasu Landing Casino?
I assume the marina is still operating

Right now seems nothing going on. We hear possibly a banquet facility. We have lived on private property area @ Landing since 07, have never spoke with anyone in the offices or tribe for that matter.,just employees @ Store and Hardware. So who knows? The maintenance at New Hotel & Marina obviously a well planned program and carried out.Yeah,for sure govt money but if run right the events the landing could attract Summer & Winter could be awesome. Not sure about the campground,but the private property areas are one giant toy box owned by good people who totally enjoy this place on the river. Minutes from ramps and miles of sand.

Vista Del Lago? Such a great place... hoping to pull the trigger there myself.

Finally had breakfast at the new casino this morning....opphhhh. I think the staff were more hungover than the patrons. 2hr breakfast, 1.5hrs of that was waiting.

Place is super clean, we’ll try it again in a few weeks.

We got there early and it wasn't busy. Our waitress was great until it got busy.
But we were anxious to play games before the next boat arrived so we walked up to the register and paid right away.
Yes the place is clean.
You had to take a shower after coming home from the old casino lol

Food is good, service could use some work.
They are promoting the new casino and hotel hard. I heard the hotel was at capacity for Memorial Day. I hope they get the success they're looking for.

The old Marina hasn't changed. Still have the store and fuel. I have a slip there. I love it.

Sadly the new Casino Restaurant is hit and miss. We've been a few times. I'd say 50/50, slightly better odds than BlackJack...

I haven’t been over there for probably 10 years so today I decided I’d cruise over in the boat and check out the area. They built a really nice dock area and fuel dock. Looks like you can pick up supplies (beer) right by the fuel pumps now. I guess I’ll have to try out the new casino when the mask thing goes away.

Mask thing is gone, so I hear

I didn't go into the casino so I'm not sure if masks are required. I did stop at the Walmart in Parker and there requiring you to still wear masks. Unfortunately they weren't providing them and I didn't have one.

They made us wear mask on the boat both ways and in the casino
Be nice if they did away with it but I don't have a problem with mask

As of yesterday 5/25 mask not required Havasu Landing except on board Tecopa. US Coast Guard requires mask on Tecopa.

Decided to give this place a try for breakfast this morning. Took the boat over and the courtesy slips were great much better then at the old casino. Was very happy with the breakfast at the restaurant and made a few bucks at the casino.
