Casinos in Elko
Elko is a ranching and mining town on Interstate 80 in northeastern Nevada, and its casinos cater to drivers crossing the state as much as to locals. The Maverick and Gold Country Inn face each other on Idaho Street, Stockmen's is a downtown hotel on Commercial Street within walking distance of shops and restaurants, and Gold Dust West is a casino and grill with no hotel. All of the hotels are older properties, and reviews of their rooms vary a lot.

How the ranking works. Venues are ordered by their Google rating, weighted by how many people left one: every rating is blended with a neutral 4.0 as if the venue had 200 more reviews at 4.0, so a 4.6 from thousands of reviews ranks above a 5.0 from a dozen. Sponsorship has no effect on the order. Ratings last checked October 2026.
