Twin Arrows Casino Resort

One of the stops on my recent trip was at the Twin Arrows Casino Resort outside of Flagstaff, Arizona off of Interstate 40. We had left Meteor Crater RV Park and were looking for a place for breakfast.

Along the way, I saw signs for the Twin Arrows Casino Resort and figured they'd have restaurants there. One fun aspect to traveling is trying out new places to eat and visit.

Sure enough, they had several. We chose the only one that served breakfast, Four Elements Cafe. We weren't disappointed in their breakfast. It is an Indian casino resort located in the Navajo Nation.

According to their website:

After opening on Memorial Day Weekend, Twin Arrows Navajo Casino Resort quickly became Northern Arizona’s premier casino resort destination. In fact, We have been named “Best Casino Resort Destination of 2013” by the readers of Experience Arizona Magazine. 

Tucked within a picturesque view of the majestic San Francisco Peaks just east of Flagstaff, Twin Arrows is the centerpiece of the Navajo Nation Gaming Enterprise's properties. 

Here, art and architecture have combined to both embody and showcase the rich history of the Navajo people, while providing an unparalleled casino resort experience.
Twin Arrows provides the very latest in gaming, often debuting new slot machines before they hit other casinos. 

Along with excellent gaming, Twin Arrows is also known for the lavish resort amenities, including luxury guest rooms (available in three configurations), gourmet dining, culturally infused casual dining, a fitness center, heated indoor pool and more than 11,000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting space.

While waiting 10 minutes to be seated, I wandered into the casino. I noticed that, like Las Vegas, the slot machines don't accept coins, just credit/debit cards or ticket vouchers. It seems odd to me that to play a 25 cent slot machine, one has to use a card or a voucher and no coins. Progress?

Twin Arrows Casino Resort looked fairly new and it had a nice modern appearance.
