We'd planned to eat a real dinner at one of Foxwoods' seven high-end restaurants, but the bowling alley's menu proved enticing over lobster BLTs, veggie burgers, and craft beer, we bowled another game. High Rollers offers regulation, not candlepin, bowling, and the electronics made it particularly fun: In addition to automatic scorekeeping, monitors show the speed (in miles per hour) of every shot.
(Information on all hotels, restaurants, and attractions at both of the casinos is available from the main resort websites.) Our room was spacious and offered a spectacular view of rugged evergreen forest.ĭownstairs, we headed directly for High Rollers, Foxwoods' lounge-style bowling alley. We opted for the mid-priced Great Cedar Hotel. Three of them, including the upscale MGM Grand at Foxwoods Hotel, are part of the main facility, and one, the budget-oriented Two Trees Inn, is within walking distance there's a shuttle bus. Start with the accommodations: While Mohegan Sun (88, ) features a single hotel, a high-rise, Foxwoods (80, ) offers four.
THE TWO CASINOS are located 10 miles apart, but there are key differences.
