Can't get enough action playing the ponies
at Churchill Downs? A visit to Horseshoe
Southern Indiana–ok, we broke the rules a
little, but it's only a scenic, 20-minute drive
from downtown Louisville--should do the
trick.
Located on the banks of the Ohio River in
Elizabeth, Indiana, the four-deck riverboat
casino and hotel has it all from nearly 1,700
slot machines, a 30-table poker room and
table games such as blackjack, roulette,
craps and mini baccarat. If the overwhelming
aroma of cigarette/cigar smoke proves too
much (it really does hit you awfully hard), no
need to bee line for the exit--there are also
non-smoking levels of the casino as well.
There are some great options to grab a
bite from here, too. Big day at the casino?
Cash in on your winnings with an upscale
steak or seafood dinner at the luxurious
Jack Binion's. More casual dining choices
include: Smoke & Rye, known for its BBQ
(their burgers are top shelf) and 160
varieties of bourbon are on offer; JB's Café,
