Harrah's Council Bluffs has many amenities including a 251-room hotel, 2 restaurants and 2 bars.

[2][3] Harrah's began as Harvey's having opened in 1996 with the Kanesville Queen riverboat, a three-story floating casino.

Maintenance costs for the riverboat were high, with Harrah's claiming to have spent over $400,000, to dredge around the boat annually.

In 2013, Harrah's scrapped the riverboat, which was inconvenient to customers due to its 300-foot ramp entrance.

They moved casino operations to the former convention center into a 25,000 square foot facility with room for 600 slot machines.
