About Clearwater Casino

Clearwater Casino, operated by the Suquamish Tribe, opened in 1995 at 15347 Suquamish Way on the Port Madison Indian Reservation in Kitsap County, Washington. The casino runs 24/7 and is categorized as a casino-resort combination, with golf, spa, restaurant, valet, and self-parking listed in its amenity directory. The minimum age is 18.

The property is the larger Kitsap-area tribal counterpart to the smaller Point Casino in Kingston. Where The Point runs 625 machines and a 3-table poker pit, Clearwater scales to 1,280 machines, 28 tables, and a 6-table poker room. Bainbridge Island and Bremerton commuters and ferry-out Seattle players are the property’s natural audience.

Games on the Floor

Poker Room

The 6-table poker room at Clearwater stands out for spreading Omaha Hi-Lo Split alongside the three Hold’em formats. Omaha split games are rare in Washington poker rooms — most properties limit themselves to Hold’em-only menus — and Clearwater’s regular Omaha presence is one of the reasons regional poker players make the ferry trip. The room runs all four formats on demand, with No Limit cash the everyday default and Omaha Hi-Lo Split usually requiring a list to form on weekends.

Amenities, Golf and Spa

The amenity list at Clearwater is one of the broader ones in the Washington tribal directory: golf, spa, resort accommodations, restaurant, valet, and self-parking are all listed. The property markets itself as the Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort, with on-site lodging built into the broader resort plan. Verify hotel room availability directly with the property; the resort layer is the reason Clearwater works as a multi-day Kitsap escape rather than only as a day-trip casino.

How Clearwater Compares

★ Editor pick

The Kitsap-area tribal resort to plan a weekend around

Clearwater earns the Kitsap weekend pick because it stacks the resort layer (golf, spa, lodging) on top of a real gaming floor with 1,280 machines, 28 tables, and one of the rare Washington Omaha Hi-Lo Split poker rooms. For Seattle visitors who want a ferry-driven weekend that doesn't require driving up to Snohomish County or down to South Sound, this is the room that gets the booking.
