Station Casinos and Station Sportsbooks lead the way in terms of Las Vegas betting.
MGM Resorts International has eight resorts in the Las Vegas area. Caesars Entertainment has nine. Station operates the widest selection with an even 10 — including the Palms, Red Rock, and Palace Station.
More than four million tourists visit Las Vegas every year. The majority of those guests find a spot to stay at one of the mega resorts on the Strip. The rest are either on Fremont Street in Downtown Vegas or enjoying one of the Station Casinos, which doesn’t have any resorts on Las Vegas Boulevard or in Old Vegas.
There is a large local casino market in Las Vegas, and Station Casinos are a dominant force, with even more development sites on the books.
Station Casinos sportsbooks are located throughout the Las Vegas valley area. There are five resorts situated within the city limits of Las Vegas, three in Henderson, and two in North Las Vegas.
All of the Station Casinos Las Vegas sportsbooks are scaled-down versions of those found on the Strip. These venues are aimed at locals and tourists looking to get away from all the hoopla and pool parties on Las Vegas Boulevard.
Station Casinos sportsbook hours are quite extensive, with some open until the early hours of the morning. Most of them are open 14 or 15 hours a day.
Is this where you will find one of the best sportsbooks in Las Vegas? Hardly. But if you just want to bet on your favorite team and enjoy the slower pace of an off-the-Strip resort, Station Casinos sports betting has a spot for you. All the major sports are available to bet on, including the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL. Station Casinos sportsbook odds are posted throughout their venues on display boards and hard copy printouts.
Most of the Station sportsbooks have seating for about 250 sports and horseplayers, with a poker room nearby.
The group of resorts also has its own online platform on the STN Sports App. The Station Casinos online sports betting app offers more wagering options that the land-based sportsbooks, but it’s only available to play during your stay in Nevada. You can even find odds on Station Casinos entertainment esports after downloading the app to your Android or iOS device.

You don’t have to be a high roller to get a complimentary drink at any one of the Station Casinos’ 10 sportsbooks. While MGM properties on the Strip want at least $200 or $300 in sports bets to earn a drink voucher, many of the Station sportsbooks require around $20. Some will even be offered a beverage just by showing a valid betting ticket.
Expect to find just a few betting windows open on any given day at these spots around Las Vegas, which makes sense since these are not high traffic areas. Here are some of the sports for wagering with posted Station Casinos Las Vegas sportsbook odds:

Station Casinos has the same rewards card for all 20 of its properties, including the 10 in the Las Vegas area.
It’s called a BoardingPass where cardholders earn points for casino play, horse and sports wagers, and poker. But your points and status credits also pile up on everything you spend money on at any Station resort, including restaurants, bars, concerts, bowling alleys, movie theaters, hotel stays, and spa experiences.
Membership is free to join at any of the Station Casinos resorts, like Fiesta Henderson and Texas Station.
The entry-level status is called Preferred. From there, cardholders graduate to higher levels like Gold, Platinum, President, and Chairman. Points are accumulated from January 1 to June 30, and from July 1 through December 31. You keep your status for the remainder of the six months, plus the next six.
The higher levels earn resort and cruise discounts, plus many other privileges and free play.
Many of the Station Casinos resorts are located on major roadways, with the Palms and Palace Station just a mile west of the Strip. For the most part, plan on using residential streets to get to your destination as these 10 resorts are located in every direction from McCarran International Airport.
Some of the Station resorts that will probably be the longest drive from the airport are:
While free parking seems to be a thing of the past on the Strip, it certainly isn’t at Station Casinos. Each and every resort offers complimentary parking, most of them with garages and covered walkways to the casino.
Some of the highlights of the Station Casinos parking lots include:
All of the Station Casinos are located near residential areas, many around shopping centers and fast-food restaurants. There are a few options for public transit, but they won’t be as easily accessible as the Strip.
Station Casinos restaurants have won multiple “Best of Las Vegas” awards, including T-Bones Chophouse at Red Rock for best steakhouse and wine list.
Here are some of their other top restaurants:
Station Casinos operates a wide selection of hotels in Las Vegas, with 10 distinct hotel and casino properties and more than 4,000 budget-friendly hotel rooms. These off-the-Strip resorts feature rooms and amenities for every taste, style and budget.
