Great Mystic Weekend Trip Idea
Day 1 -
Spend the morning going fishing at Amos Lake, Avery Pond, or Lake of Isles. You can even play a round of golf at the Lake of Isles golf course.
If your wife or girlfriend does not like fishing or golf, she can spend the morning at Foxwood's salon and spa or shopping at the 20,000 square foot shopping area.
For lunch, you can meet at the Fifth St. Cafe in Foxwoods Rainmaker Casino World Poker Room. They offer fast, casual and fine dining with soups, salads, deli sandwiches, carving board and grill favorites. Price range from $10-15 per person.
After lunch, spend the afternoon exploring the wide range of games Foxwoods has to offer. There are more than 7,000 slot and video poker machines to play. If you don't enjoy slots or video poker, there are over 380 table games to choose from. Foxwoods also offers the only casino poker tables in New England. Bingo, Keno, and sports betting are some of the other favorite games available.
You will have your pick of three gourmet restaurants available in a moments walk from your room. Each of the three gourmet restaurants offers different types of cuisine. You can enjoy continental favorites at the Paragon Restaurant atop the 24th floor of the Grand Pequot Tower or visit Al Dente Restaurant and enjoy an authentic Italian meal. For the steak-lover, Foxwoods Casino and Resort features Cedars Steak House which specializes in preparing the best cuts of Angus beef and pairing them with the local seafood Connecticut is famous for.
Foxwoods Casino and Resort offers an array of after dinner activities. You can relax and enjoy a drink at one the five bars and nightclubs that feature everything from creative coctails to locally brewed beers. Foxwoods Casino and Resort also has live entertainment, so check to see if one of your favorite artists may be performing during your stay.
