St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino
A haven for nature lovers, veteran golfers, and casino regulars alike

Golf and Tennis Travel aims to give you the best golfing vacation experience possible, but nowadays, a golfing vacation doesn’t just involve golf. Today, we feature a nice resort offering a great golf course and a fantastic casino, all tucked away between the Purcell and Rocky Mountains in British Columbia: the St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino .

Alpine ski hills, rushing rivers, and beautiful rivers and forests can be found surrounding the resort, and the nature lover is sure to find peace and comfort in the resort. Golfers, however, will have the time of their life at St. Eugene. The golf course was designed by famed architect, Les Furber . While playing on the course, golfers can enjoy spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains and the St. Mary River.

After a round of golf, golfers can head over to the casino, which boasts of being the only casino in the Kootenay Rockies, earning the name Casino of the Rockies. Now, there are a lot of golf courses that have casinos, but we recognize that not a lot of golfers are as adept in the casinos as they are on the course. It’s easy to find yourself sitting in front of one of a machine for hours, so for those veteran golfers who aren’t confident about spending time in the casino, we have some tips and reminders.

1. Understand the stakes If you’re new to the casino scene, you may still believe the movies, where protagonists play a few rounds and suddenly win big. That’s not how it works in the real world. You will probably end up losing more than you win after a few hours of fun at the casino. Henry of pocket fruity maintains that it’s important to, every once in a while, “Drop your stake, take a break or choose another ‘low payout’ machine” if you want to keep your losses at a minimum.

2. Make sure you enjoy what you’re doing The Casino of the Rockies boasts of a selection of 234 slot machines, various table games, and even Off-Track Betting . Whatever machine or table you choose to play at, make sure that you enjoy it. If after a few rounds, you realize that the game you’re playing is causing you stress, then ditch the game. Playing at the casino is meant to help you take a load off, so if losing a few games is making you feel a bit depressed, then it’s probably time to move on.

If you want to play a round of golf and try your hand at some games in a casino, then St. Eugene is the resort for you. Being the recipient of various awards for sustainability and innovation for its world-class facilities, St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino is a haven for both veteran and amateur golfers, whether they enjoy the casino or not.
