Michigan Casino Named in Top 10 Casino in Unexpected Places

Twenty or thirty years ago, say casino and you likely thought of only Las Vegas or Atlantic City. Now you are likely a short drive away from a gaming resort. Forbes Magazine recently named 10 great casinos in 'unexpected places.' One Michigan casino made their list.

Forbes noted the Motor City Casino in Detroit for

providing high-stakes entertainment. The 16-story property, which has nearly 3,000 slot machines and more than 50 table games, nods to Detroit’s vibrant history with music-related motifs and automobile paraphernalia.

Of course there are two other casinos in Detroit - Greektown and MGM and many, many other Native American run resorts including Firekeepers, Gun Lake and Four Winds in Southwest Michigan.

Would you consider Michigan an 'unexpected place' for enjoying a casino resort getaway?
