Lets just say we were disappointed with our experience at the HS Lake Charles, especially when compared to HS Bossier. We have been eagerly awaiting the opening of the Horseshoe in Lake Charles, Louisiana in the hopes that it would be similar, with a much shorter drive time. My wife and I are big fans of the Horseshoe Casino in Bossier City, Louisiana we travel 3 hours, one way, from our home to visit that property.
