Casino de Charlevoix

I visited the Casino de Charlevoix once, and the experience felt quietly special in a way I didn’t expect. The setting alone makes an impression — a château‑style building perched on the cliffs above the St. Lawrence River, with beautiful ocean‑like views that give the whole place a calm, elevated atmosphere. Inside, the casino feels lively but not overwhelming. Even with slot machines, table games, and bars spread across the space, there’s a gentleness to the environment. Staff were cordial, the layout was easy to navigate, and the overall mood felt relaxed rather than rushed — something several visitors also highlight in their impressions. What stayed with me most was the balance: a place designed for entertainment, yet surrounded by scenery that naturally slows you down. It’s the kind of spot where you can enjoy a quiet drink, play a little, and step back out into the fresh Charlevoix air feeling lighter than when you arrived. For a one‑time visit, it was memorable — calm, scenic, and quietly special.

Beautiful place, with awesome ocean views. The compulsive gambling is as sad to see as anywhere else. Free drinks were nice

Wandered around the grounds for a while trying to suck in some of that philanthropic ambience....I felt it, and went inside. There's a lot of poker machines and I'm a frugal kind of gambler. The treasury department suggests "Gamble Responsibly"....and I do, but when it comes to drinkin'!!%?? I had a couple of beers and lunch, the young lady at the bar was very courteous, helpful and kind.

Cute casino, not very large but has all you need, at least if your not a big player. Went a Saturday evening when google said it was very busy but still had an easy time finding a spot to park in the 6$ covered section. They have slot machines for all tastes. Staff was friendly and helpful.

One of the best casino in the world. It’s not huge one, and I went in cold winter, not many guests. some dealers are very humorous! I play regular blackjacks, min20and 50 tables. So I don’t know about the machines. There are some huge windows next to the tables, super nice river view! Players are much less mean than Macao for sure. Dealers are kind and funny like some friendly casinos in Vegas. Casino size is larger than European ones. I m sure I will come again in warm weathers.

Very limited machine types when you've been to Vegas... Would love to see multiplayer Black Jack machines with virtual dealers.

Small casino, but entertaining nonetheless! There's two areas to park, one is covered and paid ($6) and the others are a bit of a walk and free. There is a ton of slot machines, but not many games tables (blackjack, roulette, craps). There seemed to be a lot of people present for a Sunday evening, but we managed to find a spot. Won a whole $3, covered half the price of parking ;)

The security guards always had poker faces. On the first two days, they let me in without any issues with my small backpack. However, on the third day, they suddenly took about 10 minutes to call and check, only to tell me that my backpack was “too big” to enter and that I had to store it. This made no sense—if it was acceptable on the first two days, why not today? It’s completely inconsistent and ridiculous. I won’t be coming back again! On top of that, it’s not a place where you can win—the deals aren’t great, and the atmosphere feels overly nerdy.

Had a great night here with my boyfriend! The DJ was pretty good and the bartender even made me a special drink! She didn't speak much English but she was patient as I explained the recipe. Even the bar food was delicious (chicken wings).
