The Riverstar Casino is a Chickasaw Nation property on US Highway 81 in Terral, a few hundred yards north of the Red River and the Texas state line. Most of its visitors come up from North Texas. It rates 4.1 from around 2,500 Google reviewers.
It is a compact, practical floor: slots, a handful of tables, a restaurant and a bar. There is no hotel, no showroom and no resort side to it, and that is fine as long as you arrive expecting a straightforward local casino.
What's on the floor
The venue lists more than 600 electronic games across about 37,000 square feet of gaming floor. The Chickasaw Country listing puts the number a little higher, at more than 650 machines.
There are six live tables: four blackjack, one Three Card Poker and one Ultimate Texas Hold'em. That is enough for a casual session, but with only six tables, expect to wait for a seat at busy times.
There is no poker room, no bingo hall and no craps or roulette. If you want a bigger table selection, the large resorts on I-35 are the better trip.
Dining
Kitchen 81 is the on-site restaurant, with a broad menu. The Bar on the gaming floor handles drinks.
If you would rather eat off-site, Terral and nearby Ryan have a few small local cafés, and Doug's Peach Orchard in Terral is a local favorite.
No hotel
Riverstar does not have a hotel. If you are staying overnight, the nearest choices are in the towns around the area or across the river in Texas, so plan your accommodation separately.
Tips before you go
You must be 18 to enter the gaming floor and gamble at Riverstar. You must be 21 to buy alcohol.
Google lists the casino as open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the Chickasaw Country listing agrees. Some older directory listings show set closing times, which may date from changes made during the pandemic. If you are planning a very late visit, a quick call to the casino will confirm.
The casino sits right on US-81, so it is an easy stop if you are driving between North Texas and Duncan or Lawton.
Nearby alternatives
East along the river, WinStar World Casino and Resort and Border Casino in Thackerville are much larger Chickasaw floors on I-35. To the west, Kiowa Casino in Devol is a similar-sized option near Wichita Falls, though it is 21 and over.
