Coyote Valley Casino is a tribal casino just off US-101 in Redwood Valley, California, about 9 miles north of Ukiah. Its strongest appeal is convenience: slots, table games, Angelina’s Grill, and Shodakai Showroom sit beside an overnight option at Wyndham Garden. I see it as a useful casino-and-hotel stop within a Mendocino County road trip, rather than a gambling vacation by itself. Table players face the main limitation: the advertised schedule runs Tuesday through Saturday, not every day.

What kind of casino is Coyote Valley?
Coyote Valley is a regional casino with lodging next door. It suits a meal-and-gambling stop, an overnight stay after a showroom event, or a hotel base for exploring Mendocino County. The nearby Gasino adds a fuel station, convenience store, and separate mini casino, but it should not be confused with the main casino.
I would choose Coyote Valley primarily for location and convenience. If your trip revolves around extensive gaming or a broad resort itinerary, compare the options in our California casinos guide first.
Casino floor and games
Slots and table games form the core offering. For a specialty-game trip, call ahead: your preferred game, its rules, and its opening time matter more than a general promise of table action.
Slots and video poker
Check the total wager before starting. A slot machine’s denomination is not necessarily the cost of a spin, and jackpot eligibility can depend on the amount wagered.
If video poker is your main reason for visiting, ask about the current selection before making a special drive. Check the machine’s pay schedule rather than relying on the game’s name. There is no sound basis here for calling Coyote Valley’s machines unusually loose or tight; another player’s winning afternoon does not establish a payout rate.
The Coyote Valley Gaming Commission lists fair resolution of casino-patron disputes among its responsibilities. That is an oversight role, not a promise that a disputed payout will be decided in a player’s favor.
Table games: Tuesday through Saturday
The advertised table-game hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 a.m., subject to management changes. This is a table schedule, not the casino’s overall opening schedule.
For a card-game visit, I would put that detail ahead of everything else. Do not arrive on Sunday or Monday assuming an open casino means open tables. Ask about your preferred game and current minimum, and read the posted rules before buying in.
Poker room and sportsbook
Coyote Valley Casino has no dedicated player-versus-player poker room and no on-property retail sportsbook. Its resort page advertises poker tournaments separately. Ask for a current event schedule rather than assuming daily cash games are available.
Hotel: Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah
The adjacent Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah is a separate, nonsmoking hotel at 101 Coyote Valley Blvd. The casino is at number 77.
Rooms and suites are offered, with guest-room features including a mini-refrigerator, microwave, and coffee/tea maker. Wyndham advertises included breakfast, Wi-Fi, and parking, plus a heated outdoor pool, hot tub, and 24-hour gym.
I like the practical side of that package more than a resort-style sales pitch. Included breakfast and parking help when comparing overnight costs, while adjacent lodging reduces the need for a late drive to another town. Confirm the route between buildings if walking distance or accessibility matters to you.
Compare final booking totals. Wyndham says its calendar rates include taxes and fees, while rates displayed elsewhere include fees but not taxes. Compare the same dates and cancellation terms, not just the first nightly price. Included amenities do not establish that a stay has no other charges.
Restaurants, bars, and entertainment
Angelina’s Grill and late-night food
Angelina’s Grill advertises breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night bites. Its lunch/dinner menu is listed from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., followed by a separate late-night menu from 11 p.m. to midnight. Call (707) 467-4739 for breakfast timing or dining questions.
Floor/Side Bar Bites are listed from 3 p.m. to midnight Sunday through Thursday and from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday. A late snack option does not mean the full restaurant menu remains available.
Hotel breakfast and lobby bar
The hotel lists included breakfast from 6 to 9 a.m. Monday through Friday and from 7 to 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Its lobby bar advertises beer, wine, and light fare daily from 4 to 11 p.m. These are hotel offerings, not casino dining hours.
Keep breakfast expectations modest. Several July 2026 hotel guests on Trip.com described the included selection as limited, with some reporting pastries and fruit rather than a substantial buffet. Those individual reports differ from the hotel’s advertised buffet and do not guarantee what will be served during your stay. Ask what is currently included if you are counting on a full breakfast.
Shodakai Showroom
Shodakai Showroom and cultural events give visitors another reason to stop. Check each event’s ticket price, age restrictions, and start time before booking a room. I would also settle the post-show food plan beforehand, especially on nights without the later bites service.
Practical comparison: travel, late meals, and hotel value
The useful comparison is how the published travel estimates, dining windows, and hotel inclusions fit your plans, not an unsupported ranking against other casinos.
Gamboool original analysis
We assembled the comparison below from published information and our calculations. These are selected examples, rather than measured gambling sessions or a representative survey.
| Detail | Published information |
|---|---|
| Coyote Valley Casino table games: Published operating schedule and change policy | Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.; management may change the hours. |
| Coyote Valley Gasino: Mini-casino age and smoking policy | The Gasino is advertised as an 18+ nonsmoking mini casino; this description applies to the Gasino, not necessarily the main casino. |
| Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah: Relationship to the casino and hotel smoking policy | A nonsmoking hotel adjacent to Coyote Valley Casino, off US-101. |
| Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah: Included amenities versus other available amenities | Breakfast, WiFi, and parking are advertised as free; on-site dining, a heated outdoor pool, and a 24/7 gym are also available. |
| Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah: Calendar prices versus prices displayed elsewhere | Calendar rates include taxes and fees; rates elsewhere include fees but not taxes, so displayed prices need not be directly comparable. |
| Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah breakfast: Weekday versus weekend service windows | Free buffet breakfast runs 6–9 a.m. Monday through Friday and 7–10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday; the coffee bar runs 6–10 a.m. |
| Wyndham Garden Redwood Valley/Ukiah Lobby Bar: Published service window | Light bar fare, beer, and wine are advertised with daily hours of 4–11 p.m. |
| Coyote Valley Casino cafe: Lunch/dinner versus late-night menu windows | The all-day lunch/dinner menu is listed from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.; a separate late-night menu is listed from 11 p.m. to midnight. |
| Coyote Valley Casino Floor/Side Bar Bites: Friday and Saturday versus other nights | Service starts at 3 p.m. and ends at midnight Sunday through Thursday or at 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday. |
| Coyote Valley Casino approach from Ukiah: Published travel estimate and highway exit | The published approach is 8.9 miles and 12 minutes via US-101 north and exit 557. |
| Coyote Valley Casino approach from Willits: Published travel estimate and highway exit | The published approach is 15.0 miles and 20 minutes via US-101 south and exit 557. |
| Coyote Valley Casino: Visitor address | The casino contact page lists 77 Coyote Valley Blvd, Redwood Valley, CA 95470. |
| Coyote Valley Wyndham Garden Hotel: Hotel address and reservation contact | The hotel has a separate address at 101 Coyote Valley Blvd and a reservation number of 1-844-462-6968. |
| Calculation | Result | Takeaway |
|---|---|---|
| Published approach-distance comparison: Willits versus Ukiah | 6.1 miles | The published Ukiah approach is shorter than the Willits approach; use these route estimates rather than assuming both towns are equally convenient. |
| Published driving-time comparison: Willits versus Ukiah | 8 minutes | Ukiah has the quicker published approach, but actual travel time depends on your starting point and road conditions. |
| Extra late-night Floor/Side Bar Bites service on Friday and Saturday | 2 hours | Friday and Saturday offer a later bites window than the other nights; do not assume the cafe’s full menu follows that schedule. |

Method: Published inputs collected 2026-10-15. Illustrative assumptions are labeled, and the full calculation inputs remain in the saved research record. These examples support planning; they do not predict a particular session.
- Ukiah versus Willits: The casino’s published approaches put Ukiah an estimated 6.1 miles closer and eight minutes quicker. These are advertised route estimates, not a timed Gamboool drive. Your hotel’s location and road conditions will matter; with otherwise similar room prices, I would favor the shorter return trip.
- Late meals: Friday and Saturday offer two additional hours of Floor/Side Bar Bites service. That makes a late snack easier to plan, but does not extend the cafe’s full-menu hours.
- Overnight value: Include the Wyndham’s breakfast, parking, and Wi-Fi when comparing final hotel totals. Those benefits do not make it automatically the cheapest option.
Directions, parking, and practical advice
The casino’s directions and contact page lists US-101 exit 557 for approaches from Ukiah and Willits. Its estimates are 8.9 miles and 12 minutes from Ukiah, or 15 miles and 20 minutes from Willits. Use the full casino address in your navigation app.
Free parking is advertised for the adjacent hotel; follow your booking instructions rather than assuming every parking arrangement across the property is identical. Wyndham lists Charles M. Schulz Sonoma County Airport at 63 miles away, leaving a substantial onward journey after a flight.
- Smoking: The hotel and separate Gasino are advertised as nonsmoking. Neither statement establishes the main casino floor’s policy. Ask about the gaming area you intend to use if smoke is a deciding factor.
- Transportation: Arrange your return trip before drinking. Do not depend on an unconfirmed shuttle or last-minute ride.
- Accessibility: Discuss parking, entrance, room, and building-to-building access needs directly with the property.
- Budget: Keep room, meal, fuel, and event money separate from gambling funds. Confirm current table minimums instead of planning around an old advertised bet.
Players Club
The Players Club contact number is (707) 467-4750. Ask about enrollment requirements, how play is tracked, and offer restrictions before your session. My usual advice applies: take benefits attached to play you already intended to make, but do not increase your budget to chase a reward.
If gambling is becoming difficult to control, the California Department of Justice lists free, confidential help available around the clock: call 1-800-GAMBLER or text SUPPORT to 53342.
Our take: who should visit?
Coyote Valley suits US-101 travelers, nearby residents, and showroom visitors who want casino time without a complicated detour. The adjacent Wyndham adds overnight appeal through included breakfast, parking, and Wi-Fi, although limited guest reports suggest breakfast may be less substantial than advertised. I would shortlist it for a Mendocino County trip that includes gambling, rather than one built entirely around it; table players needing daily action should choose a property with a seven-day table schedule.
