I do win many more time than I lose and that is why I go so often. Now you may not always be a winner, but if you were, people would be lined up from California to Little River Inlet, SC. Whether you drive in from Jacksonville, NC, Wilimington, NC, Charlotte,NC, Fayetteville, NC or Columbia, SC OR Myrtle Beach it is worth the drive. I have been going on the Big M Casino boat for years and I highly recommend you experiencing true Southern Hospitality at its best. But as my pappy would say 'it is what it is' I would note that since my friends booked the tour I did not read and disclaimers regarding what you could wear or bring on board. We were NOT trying to circumvent the selling of food or drinks while on board. The crew member confiscated the crackers.

Also, I am a diabetic and my wife had two packs of snack crackers in her purse. I only the bandana style mask due to the fact that the over the ear style masks gets caught up in my hearing aids and I have a fear of damaging on and/or losing one.

Before we even got to go into the registration center a crew member confronted me and said that they did NOT allow the bandanna style masks and offered me a surgical style mask. I had two minor issues, these were very minor issues, but I felt the need to note them. They totally maintained social distancing and was always available to clean/disinfecting machines as people played then left the slots. I appreciated the crews attention to detail w/ regards to Covid. Overall we had a good experience at the Big M Casino. Although we didn't come home with more money than we came with, our friend did. They were very punctual both at leaving and returning to the dock. And there were sanitizing wipes throughout. Employees were constantly wiping down machines as people got up from them.

All the machines (except maybe 1) were in perfect working order. We got to eat outside and enjoy the ride out. The employee said we could get our food and there were tables on the top deck. When we got onboard we went to eat but all the tables were taken. They wanted to ensure distance between players for safety. They had every other machine set with a sign to ask an employee if you wanted to use it. There are 2 decks of machines and tables (for card games, with plastic safety dividers).

We booked online quick and easy and received email confirmation. First time and hopefully will go back on future visits to the area.
