Mount Airy Casino Resort in Mount Pocono is the Poconos' casino: a casino floor with a poker room and sportsbook, several restaurants, live music at the bar, a spa and an 18-hole golf course, all in one place.
It is not a family destination. Mount Airy says all guests must be at least 21, and that covers the whole resort, including the hotel, restaurants and spa. People under 21 can't stay or visit. If you're traveling with kids, plan Mount Airy as an adults' night out while someone else stays back at the rental.
