Had a good time at Shooting Star Casino and at the time of day I went, which was early morning it was really quiet and not a lot of people which made it nice because you had your choice as far as what you wanted to play. The staff was very friendly and didn't make you feel like you were being watched even though you are no matter where you are there! Overall I would recommend it to anyone looking to go out and try there luck at gambling and not just because of the slot machines. They also have tables for poker and blackjack at designated times during the day, but they also have a pool and plenty of rooms as well as musicians and bands that play there and the town of Mahnomen is a small town city so it is easy to get to and the people are as friendly as Minnesota nice! And they also have good food specials most of the time during the day and free beverages for your convenience while you are playing.
