Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.
Where the venue is fixed
Century Casino Cripple Creek is in Cripple Creek, Teller County, Colorado. The published reference sources available here document the venue at city level only, not at property-coordinate level, so the defensible location statement is the city, county, state, and venue type rather than a parcel-level pinpoint.
That matters because this name sits in a city with more than one documented casino property. Publicly published reference sources also note a caution here: figures for one Cripple Creek property should not be presented as if they belong to another.
The city coordinates available for Cripple Creek are 38.74833333 latitude and -105.18194444 longitude. Using those city coordinates, the place sits in Colorado and can be described in relation to the listed reference points only through the documented straight-line pairs below.

How to read these mileage figures correctly
Straight-line distance answers one narrow question: how far two points are from each other across the map surface in the shortest geometric sense. It is useful for orientation, for comparing one reference city with another, and for understanding regional position without implying a route.
It does not tell you what your odometer would show. Once a trip has to follow roads, the path bends around terrain, follows the available road network, and crosses state lines only where roads and junctions allow. That is why road mileage is longer than great-circle mileage.
Several kinds of detour create the gap between straight-line and real-world travel. Mountain terrain can force roads into curves and passes; water can require bridge crossings or long way-round routing; the road grid may not run directly toward the destination; and cross-state travel often follows major connections rather than a pure compass line.
Because of those factors, a straight-line figure should be read as a map reference, not as a trip-planning promise. This is especially important for any reader trying to convert a city-to-city geometric number into a driving expectation, because the article cannot support that conversion.
Regional position within the documented reference set
The documented city coordinates place Cripple Creek in Colorado. Relative to the listed comparison points, Denver is the nearest documented reference in this set at a straight-line 69.3 miles from the city, while the other listed places are much farther away and spread across several directions outside Colorado.
The western reference set includes Henderson, Las Vegas, and Laughlin. The southern and southwestern set includes Phoenix, Denton TX, and Arlington TX. The eastern and central set includes Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Topeka Kansas, and Kansas City. Bourbon Street is also in the documented comparison list and is farther from Cripple Creek than Denver by a substantial margin in straight-line terms.
That does not rank routes or convenience. It only shows that Cripple Creek's documented city position is much closer, in straight-line miles, to Denver than to the out-of-state reference points injected into this measurement set.
What this article can and cannot measure
This article can give you a fixed location description for Century Casino Cripple Creek at the city level: Cripple Creek, Teller County, Colorado, with city coordinates of 38.74833333 and -105.18194444. It can also give you the exact documented great-circle mileage pairs listed above.
It cannot measure a road trip to the property, because the available location precision is city only and the published distances are from city centre to reference point. It also cannot supply a property-specific straight-line distance to any place that is not already in the documented matrix.
If your own starting point is not one of the listed reference places, the useful way to use this page is as a fixed anchor. The venue's location is fixed, but your location is not. Compare your own map position against Cripple Creek, Colorado, and then use a mapping tool to measure from your actual origin rather than treating any city-based figure here as a substitute.
What to confirm before you go
Before travelling, confirm the property's exact street-level location on the venue's own location or contact page, because the material used here identifies the venue only at city level. Also confirm current access details, parking arrangements, and any building-specific information on the venue's own channels, since those are live operational items and can change.
If you are planning from a specific starting point, use your map service to check the route from your exact origin to the property's published address. That is the right place to confirm road mileage, route options, and any practical arrival details that a city-centre great-circle table cannot provide.
FAQ
Is the distance table measuring from the casino building itself?
No. The documented measurements here are from the city of Cripple Creek, not from a property coordinate for Century Casino Cripple Creek. That distinction matters because city-centre great-circle figures are useful for orientation, but they are not parcel-level measurements and should not be read as building-to-building distances.
Can this article tell me how far the venue is from my location?
Only if your starting point matches one of the listed reference places, and even then the figure is straight-line from the city of Cripple Creek. If your location is somewhere else, this article cannot measure that pair. Use the fixed city coordinates and the venue's own published location details to measure from your actual starting point.
Why not convert these miles into driving distance?
Because that would require unsupported routing assumptions. Great-circle figures cut across the map, while real trips follow roads shaped by terrain, water crossings, network layout, and border-crossing options. A reliable driving figure belongs on a live mapping service using your exact origin and the property's current published address.
