Casinos... CLICK HERE TO SEE CRIPLE CREEK CASINO LISTINGS CLICK HERE CENTRAL CITY CASINO LISTINGS In 1991, limited stakes gambling was approved for 3 small mountain towns in Colorado. Two of the three, Black Hawk and Central City which are located within a couple of miles of each other, are about a half an hours drive from Denver. The third gambling town, Cripple Creak, is located near Colorado Springs and Pueblo in Southern Colorado.  Gaming
is limited to $5 per bet no matter what gaming device you are using.
Blackjack tables are very popular in most of the casinos along with
rows upon rows of slot machines. Other tables common in Colorado casinos
are; let it ride, 3 card poker, crazy 6's and some casinos have separate
poker rooms. With the advent of limited stakes gambling, these small towns were revived with generally small casinos in existing buildings. Nevertheless, with the overwhelming popularity, many new 'Vegas style' casinos have sprung up with 4 star restaurants and fine lodging. However, if you would like the rustic Colorado cabin-like casino experience, there are plenty still surviving today to suit your needs. 
There are two ways to get to Black Hawk and Central City. One involves
a beautiful drive up the windy Clear creek Canyon on US 6 out of Golden.
Follow the scenic canyon to highway 119 and vere right, Black Hawk
is located about 7 miles past the turn and Central City is only 1
mile further up the road from there. The second option is to take
I-70 west out of the metro area and exit shortly before Idaho Springs
at Colorado 119 which will lead you up the hill into Black Hawk &
Central City.Cripple creek is located about an hour outside of Colorado Springs. Take US 24 out of the springs and travel west to highway 67. Turn left (south) and follow highway 67 all the way into Cripple creek. Click here to go back to things to menu.
