Maine's only casino hotel — Lucky Ladies, Texas Hold'em Bonus, 7 Card Stud poker, and live harness racing at Bangor's Bass Park

Hollywood Casino Hotel & Raceway Bangor is Maine's only casino hotel — the only property where visitors can combine gaming with on-site lodging. The harness racing tradition at Bass Park predates the casino by decades. Lucky Ladies (Blackjack side bet) and Texas Hold'em Bonus are the specialty table game formats; the 4-table poker room's 7 Card Stud and Omaha add format depth for the Bangor market.
