From the city of Choctaw, Golden Moon Casino is 158.0 miles straight-line from Tunica, 163.8 miles straight-line from Biloxi, 164.2 miles straight-line from Gulfport, 202.0 miles straight-line from New Orleans, 274.0 miles straight-line from Shreveport, 280.3 miles straight-line from Atlanta, 299.6 miles straight-line from Lake Charles, 408.8 miles straight-line from St Louis, 424.7 miles straight-line from Houston, 447.7 miles straight-line from Dallas, and 453.0 miles straight-line from Tulsa.
Road distance is longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.
Where the venue is fixed
Golden Moon Casino is documented in Choctaw, Neshoba County, Mississippi, and it is identified as a Native American casino. Publicly published reference sources for this venue row place it in the city of Choctaw and note that it is part of the Pearl River Resort.
The important limit is precision. The published location here is the city, not the property itself, so every mileage figure in this article is measured from Choctaw as a city reference point rather than from the casino building.
That distinction matters if you are trying to judge where the venue sits on a map. City-based figures are still useful for regional orientation, but they are not property-gate measurements and they are not road miles.

Each figure above is a great-circle measurement between city centres. It is best read as map orientation: how far apart two places are in pure geometric terms, not how a real trip unfolds on roads.
Why straight-line and real travel differ
A straight-line figure ignores the shape of the road network. Real routes have to follow available roads, and those roads bend around local layouts rather than cutting directly from one point to another.
Water, terrain, and built infrastructure also create detours. Even when two places are not especially far apart as the crow flies, bridges, river crossings, and the pattern of connected roads can lengthen the practical route.
State lines can matter too, not because the straight-line measure changes, but because actual road networks often connect places through a limited set of crossings and corridors. That is one reason a city-to-city great-circle distance should never be read as interchangeable with a driving figure.
For this venue, there is another layer: the measurement point is Choctaw, not the casino parcel. So even before road routing enters the picture, the number is a city-centre reference rather than a door-to-door one.
Regional position of Choctaw
The city reference for Golden Moon Casino is Choctaw, Mississippi, with published city coordinates of 32.77805556, -89.10055556. That places the venue's documented city in Mississippi, in Neshoba County.
Using the reference cities in the distance list, Choctaw sits east of Shreveport, Lake Charles, Houston, Dallas, and Tulsa. It sits west of Atlanta.
It also sits north of Biloxi, Gulfport, and New Orleans. Compared with St Louis, Choctaw is south.
Those are simple directional relationships supported by the published city coordinates and the named states and cities in the distance matrix. They help with regional orientation without implying any unsupported route, highway path, or travel time.
What this article can and cannot measure
If your question is simply where casino Golden Moon is fixed on the map, the answer is Choctaw, Mississippi. If your question is how far it is from one of the listed reference cities, this article can give you the city-to-city straight-line figure shown in the table.
If your starting point is somewhere else, this article cannot measure that pair unless it appears in the published distance set above. That includes any phrasing such as near me, from here, or from my location: the venue's position is fixed, but your position is not, so you need to measure from your own chosen starting point to Choctaw.
A practical way to do that is to place Choctaw, Mississippi, at the centre of your map check, then compare your own city against the same map tool's straight-line or route measurement. Keep in mind that the city coordinate is the documented reference point available here, not a property-pin for the casino building.
What to confirm before you go
Before setting out, confirm the items that change and that this article does not publish. That includes the venue's current operating hours, any access or parking arrangements, the exact on-property entrance point, and any live lodging or amenity details tied to the wider resort.
The authoritative current answer for those items is the property's own official information channels, such as its location page, contact page, booking page, or guest services desk. Ownership, branding, access arrangements, and amenity details can change over time, and city-based location references do not answer those operational questions.
Also confirm that the place label you enter into your own map is the venue you intend, not just the city. Because the documented public reference here is city-level only, readers should check the property's own directions page for the final on-site location details.
Using the distance table correctly
The safest way to use the table is as a scale reference. It tells you whether Choctaw is regionally closer in straight-line terms to one listed city than another, but it does not tell you which real-world trip is simpler.
For example, Biloxi at 163.8 straight-line miles and Gulfport at 164.2 straight-line miles are very close in geometric distance from Choctaw, but that near-equality should not be turned into a claim about equal road mileage or equal travel conditions. Straight-line data is precise within its own method, and limited outside it.
The same caution applies to larger gaps. Houston is listed at 424.7 straight-line miles and Dallas at 447.7 straight-line miles from Choctaw, but this article does not convert that difference into route length, schedule planning, or transport advice.
FAQ
Is Golden Moon Casino in Biloxi or Choctaw?
Golden Moon Casino is documented in Choctaw, Mississippi, in Neshoba County. Biloxi appears in this article only as a comparison point in the straight-line distance table, where Choctaw is listed as 163.8 miles great-circle from Biloxi. That does not place the venue in Biloxi, and it is not a road measurement.
How far is Golden Moon Casino from Houston?
This article can give only the published city-to-city straight-line figure: Choctaw is 424.7 miles great-circle from Houston. It cannot publish driving mileage, route length, or travel time, and it cannot convert that city-based number into a property-specific trip figure.
Can I use these numbers to plan my drive?
Use them only for broad orientation. The table shows great-circle distances from Choctaw, which are geometric measurements between city centres. Real trips are longer because roads curve, crossings are limited, and the casino itself is not represented here by a separate published property coordinate. For live trip planning, confirm details through the venue's official channels and your own map tool.
