Steve;
You will need a car. None of the casinos are near the game.
I suggest you get out to the new Barona Valley Ranch Resort and Casino that just opened, very nice, all new, very big. Between 10 and 15 miles out.
From Barona both Viejas and Sycuan are short drives.Both large.
Thirty miles further out east is Golden Acorn,
small.
If you have time to make a north tour you can cover Pechanga, big; Pala, big; Pauma, med. Harrah's Rincon,big; and Valley View.med. About 100 to 120 miles loop.Will take most of a day.

As to card rooms Oceans 11 is north on the ocean and big.Lucky Lady and Palomar are in San Diego on El Cagon Blvd, both small. and Vilage club is in Chula Vista, down south, also small.

Any other questions, send me an EMail.
Jim
