    The quality of the air provides an opportunity for those whose friends and families do not smoke. They could now join their smoking buddies in the same parlor.

    The casino’s new General Manager Chris McGahey puts it this way:

    “We have a state-of-the arts air handling system,” he said.  “It allows people that prefer to smoke, as well non-smokers to have a place to go to try the best-of-the-best games. Our new air handling machines allow them to socialize, whether they are smokers or non-smokers.”

    Looking forward, the GM predicts Cliff Castle Casino Hotel will soon become a musical Mecca for big acts from around the country.

    “We have a new focus, not only on customer service but entertainment as well,” he said.   “We want to be the center for Northern Arizona for everyone’s entertainment pleasure.”

    He invites locals who enjoy gaming, as well as visitors from other parts of Arizona and the country, to make it a point to come to the casino and hotel to enjoy the many amenities, including its restaurant and café.

    “Try us out,” he said. “Not only do we have a great restaurant and great specials, we also have some of. the best odds you will ever find, not only in Northern Arizona but throughout all of Arizona.”

    Cliff Castle Casino Hotel is proudly owned and operated by the Yavapai-Apache Nation. The Nation is comprised of two distinct peoples: the Yavapai, who call themselves Wipuhk’a’bah, and the Apache, who call themselves Dil’zhe’e.

    In 1995, the Yavapai-Apache people opened its gaming facility to provide much-needed revenue and secure a financial future for the Nation.

    The success of Cliff Castle Casino allows the tribal government to provide essential services for its members, including healthcare, social services, and education programs.
