There are enough restrictions in everyday life. As an adult people can choose what they want to do. I am not saying that the entire casino needs to put up with smoke, however an indoor smoking section with slots would go a long way. I understand that smoking, drinking, and gambling are all not good habits but I am not going to the health club. Plus when I do this it forces me to leave the slot I am playing. However, I am not going to throw thousands of dollars away to be forced to find a remote outdoor smoking area. I am sure this was the main reason for them to start the no smoking policy.

I am sure Covid impacted them like every other business. The Copper Rock was a great fine dining restaurant and the high limit slot room was fun! People could have a drink, smoke a cigarette or cigar, and gamble in an adult environment. The decor is still beautiful in the casino. The original hotel was smaller but beautiful. Like you were getting away without having to get on a plane and fly somewhere. When Four Winds in New Buffalo opened originally the best part about it was that it was close to home with enough space and freedom to feel like you were on a mini vacation. We enjoy gambling and there is a nice selection of slots. I would definitely stay again.Simply put I will not be back unless some changes are made. The buffet was extensive and reasonable and the Timbers Deli had surprisingly tasty food. The employees in the casino were also quite nice. It would be nice if they had a pool and/or a spa, but I am sure the idea is to drive the business to the casino. I wish there was a little more to do at the hotel. I enjoyed the casino and the shops and restaurants. I was surpirsed that this ADA room was at the farthest end of the hall on the third floor, but the room was excellent and the rest of the customer service was far better. At that point she was miraculously able to offer me an 'accessible' room that was non-smoking. She was not friendly nor did she offer any solutions until I asked if I could upgrade at my own expense to a non-smoking suite. When I walked up to the desk and gave my name the woman at the desk did not say hello or welcome, but simply 'We are out of non-smoking rooms'. The hotel is quite nice and the room was large and very clean. I took advantage of a two night complimentary weekday stay last week.
