BOS 2025 VICKSBURG

 

This city in western Mississippi has plenty of charm and gaming options. History lovers will really enjoy a trip to the site of a key Civil War battle from 1863. When visiting the area it’s certainly worth a trip to the vast Vicksburg National Military Park, which commemorates the battle and includes the Vicksburg National Cemetery and restored USS Cairo gunboat. Gaming began in the area in 1993 with the opening of the Isle of Capri, offering central Mississippi Vegas-style gaming for the first time. The state legislature legalized dockside casino gambling in a special session in 1990. The Isle became the area’s first riverboat casino right on the Mississippi.

There are now four casinos, attracting players from around the region. All are located on the east side of the river, just across the Louisiana border. Two of these are located north of Interstate 20 (Ameristar and WaterView) and two are located to the south of the highway (Bally’s and Riverwalk).

The top three properties in this market give a repeat performance in 2025. Ameristar Casino Hotel – Vicksburg is back as the top property for Best Overall Gaming Resort. The property offers 1,300 slot and video poker machines, blackjack, craps, roulette and a comfy poker room. Players will find a hotel with 149 well-appointed rooms, an RV Park, restaurants like Heritage Buffet or Bourbon’s steakhouse and more. Ameristar came out on top as Best Overall Casino, Best Reel Slots, Best Video Poker, Best $5+ Slots, Best Variety Of Slots and Best High-End Slot Area.

Bally’s Vicksburg again takes the silver medal in this region and features more than 600 slot and video poker machines along with electronic gaming tables with craps, roulette and blackjack. The property also boasts a sportsbook, great dining options, and nice hotel. Bally’s collected honors as Casino Where You Feel Luckiest, Best Penny Slots, Best Quarter Slots, Best Dollar Slots, Best Comps, Best Customer Service, Friendliest Casino and Best Casino Cocktail Service.

WaterView Casino & Hotel showed some staying power and returns for third place again. This property features 122 renovated hotel rooms and is located right on the Mississippi River. Take your pick from one of 500 slots on the 30,000-square-foot gaming floor, jump in the action on the table games, or make that parlay wager at the sportsbook. Dining and entertainment options also abound. This property continues to shine and finished as Best Video Slots, Best Progressive Slots, Best Hosts, Best 50-Cent Slots, Best Slot Club, Best Slot Club Promotions and Best VIP Service.
