Riverside Resort Hotel Casino Tickets

Riverside Resort Hotel Casino
Don Laughlin?s Riverside Resort Hotel & Casino is located in Laughlin, Nevada, on the Colorado River. Laughlin operated the 101 Club in Las Vegas. He opened Riverside Resort which offered all-you-can-eat chicken dinners for 98 cents, 12 slot machines and two live gaming tables, and 8 motel rooms. Out of 8 motel rooms, 4 were occupied by Don Laughlin?s family.

The resort has a full-service RV park with 740 spaces, as well as several restaurants. The hotel has its own yacht, The U.S.S. Riverside, which is available for charter. Along the banks of the Colorado River and nestled between surrounding majestic mountains, emerges the picturesque expanse named for gaming pioneer Don Laughlin.

Construction of a 14 story hotel tower added 253 rooms and later on, a second fourteen-floor tower added 307 more rooms and an automotive museum.

With free admission to the public, the Riverside?s extensive collection is an offshoot of the famous Harrah?s collection. The largest expansion came in later year with the addition of 800 more rooms for a total of 1404 rooms. A 34 lane bowling center, the only one in Laughlin, was then constructed. Today the resort features a total of 1,400 rooms, and a 6 screen movie theater.

Nearly 5 million annual visitors retreat to this desert oasis renowned for a seemingly endless list of activities including fishing, boating, water skiing, golf, camping and hiking. An average temperature makes a perfect climate for enjoying all the outdoor activities available in Laughlin.

Don Laughlin?s affinity for gaming began when he was a child and ever since, he has lived a life destined for success. He first found his gambling inspiration while growing up on a farm near Owatonna, Minnesota.

With his profits earned from trapping mink and muskrat, he bought slot machines from a mail-order catalog and installed them in local pubs. The profits he earned were shared with pub owners.

The young businessman was making $500 a week when his school principal gave him an ultimatum: ?get out of the slot business or get out of school?. Laughlin got out of schools. Then he struggled hard and saved enough money to buy his own business.

Ten years later he sold his place for $165,000. Ready for new challenges, Laughlin embarked on what would become an incredible journey. It was in 1964 that the course of gaming history would change forever.

Fresh from a successful 10-year gaming venture in North Las Vegas, Laughlin began scouting the rugged Mohave Desert in his private plane. The area was vacant except for a boarded-up eight-room motel. Two years later, he paid $235,000 for the motel and six acres of river front property.

In later years he made different additions in his building. The latter expansion cost Don Laughlin $30 million and gave the resort a total of 660 rooms and suites. In 1994, a new 30-story tower opened and added 792 rooms for a total cost estimated at over $70 million.

Laughlin?s ingenuity surfaced again with the development of a $10 million 34-lane state-of-the-art Brunswick bowling center and all-new Race & Sports Book.

Construction was completed in early 1999. The town of Laughlin?s first casino and only family owned and operated property boasts numerous gaming and entertainment amenities. In addition to gaming, amenities include plenty of fun and entertainment for the entire family.

Laughlin?s Celebrity Theatre seats 1,000 guests and is home to top-name entertainment such as Charo, the Oak Ridge Boys, Vicki Lawrence, Roy Clark, Glen Campbell, and Debbie Reynolds, to name a just a few.

The Dance Club offers more than 1,400 square feet of dance floor for you to kick up your heels or experience the Karaoke club by night. In April 2003 the Riverside expanded across Casino Drive with an all-new casino addition.

The new gaming area can be accessed by either adjacent parking garage, or via bridge. In the same year, the Riverside also opened an all-new Food Court in the North Tower featuring Cinnabon and Seattle?s Best Coffee, Pizza Hut and Dreyer?s Ice Cream outlets, and the Rice Garden in the South Tower.

Free shuttle service for guests is offered between the Riverside Resort, Laughlin/Bullhead City International Airport. Along with his success, Laughlin believes in supporting the local community.

Today, the Riverside?s work force numbers over 2,000 employees with an annual payroll of over $50 million. Laughlin?s population is now approximately 10,000. Today, the Riverside boasts 1,405 beautiful rooms and suites, most with breathtaking river views.
