About North Star Mohican Casino Resort

North Star Mohican Casino Resort is a tribal casino and resort at W12180 County Road A in Bowler, Wisconsin, owned and operated by the Stockbridge-Munsee Community Band of Mohican Indians since 1992. The property sits in Shawano County, about 50 minutes west of Green Bay and just over an hour northeast of Wausau. The Wisconsin Department of Administration, Division of Gaming oversees Class III play under the state-tribal compact, with a minimum gambling age of 21.

North Star is one of the larger tribal casinos in northeastern Wisconsin by combined slot-and-table count: 1,225 slot machines and 18 dealt table games make it bigger than any of the Ho-Chunk Gaming properties outside Wisconsin Dells, and substantially larger than Mole Lake, Lake of the Torches, or Potawatomi Northern Lights. The resort classification reflects an on-site golf course, RV parking, spa, salon, and shops, plus dining and event programming.

Games on the Floor

The 18-table pit at North Star is the deepest dealt-table operation in northeastern Wisconsin outside the Green Bay corridor. Blackjack runs in standard shoe and Blackjack pitch (single-deck) variants. Craps and Roulette anchor the dice-and-wheel side. The carnival category covers 3 Card Poker, Let It Ride, Let It Ride Bonus Poker, and Ultimate Texas Hold’em. Bingo runs as a separate hall on a regular schedule.

For dealt-table players, the combination of Blackjack pitch (single-deck), craps, roulette, and Ultimate Texas Hold’em on a single 18-table pit is unusual for any tribal property outside Milwaukee or Wisconsin Dells. The 1,225-machine slot floor adds depth that few northern Wisconsin venues can match, with the STARGUIDE loyalty program tracking play across the floor.

Amenities, Golf, and Resort Programming

The resort classification at North Star is justified by an unusual amenity stack for a Wisconsin tribal casino. The property runs an on-site golf course, RV parking with hookups, a spa, a salon, a fitness center, shops, and a full restaurant. Live concerts and comedy bookings appear on the events calendar, and a buffet operates as part of the dining lineup. The directory marks the property without an attached hotel field flagged true, though the North Star branding consistently uses “Resort” in its marketing.

The biggest, deepest tribal floor in northeastern Wisconsin

North Star Mohican Casino Resort is the closest thing northeastern Wisconsin has to a destination tribal casino outside the Green Bay and Wisconsin Dells corridors. The 18-table pit covers craps, roulette, blackjack pitch, and Ultimate Texas Hold'em on a 1,225-machine floor, paired with golf, spa, RV parking, and live entertainment. For travelers between Green Bay and Wausau who want a real resort floor without driving four hours, this is the call.
