Ameristar Casino Hotel Council Bluffs is just fifteen minutes from downtown Omaha on Interstate 80, within an hours’ drive of more than a million Iowans and Nebraskans. Omaha was the major American gambling destination for a century, well into the 1970s. Changes in Nebraska gaming law mean that the closest place to find real casino-style gambling is across the border in Iowa. Council Bluffs is the first town Nebraskans will find on I-80, hence its position as a home for legal casino operations.
