Foxwoods Table Games and Fixed Location

Foxwoods Resort Casino is documented with 53 table games, not a single blackjack table, and its fixed position in Ledyard, Connecticut places it 118.9 straight-line miles from New York City. The question of whether the venue has "1 blackjack" is better answered by facility counts than by a yes or no, because the documented figure describes a category of games rather than one specific table.

Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance. This article does not publish driving mileage, travel time, highway numbers, or turn-by-turn directions. It gives the venue's fixed coordinates, the documented facility figures, and the straight-line distances to reference points that are already measured.

The venue's fixed position

Foxwoods Resort Casino sits at latitude 41.47388889 and longitude -71.95805556, in Ledyard, Connecticut. The location is in the southeastern part of the state, east of the Connecticut River and north of Long Island Sound. The property is owned and operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation on their reservation.

The resort opened in 1992 and is described in publicly published reference sources as an integrated resort that, including six casinos, covers an area of 9,000,000 square feet. Facility figures like room counts, machine counts, and floor area are revised as properties are rebuilt and expanded, so these numbers describe a documented point in time rather than today's condition.

Documented facility figures

The table below lists the venue's documented facility counts. These are the only figures this article can state for the property.

The 53 table games figure comes from a description of the MGM Grand at Foxwoods portion of the property, which also documented 1,400 slot machines and 825 hotel rooms and suites within that section. The MGM brand split from Foxwoods in late 2013, so the 53 table games figure is tied to that documented period and may not reflect the current table count across the whole resort.

What "does Foxwoods have 1 blackjack" is really asking

The query reads as a question about whether the casino offers blackjack, phrased as a count of one. The documented facility data does not break down the 53 table games by game type, so this article cannot confirm how many of those tables are blackjack, whether any specific table is a blackjack table, or what minimums or rules apply at any table.

What the documented figure does establish is that the venue has a table games operation measured in the dozens, not a single table. Blackjack is a standard table game found at most large casino properties, but the exact current mix is a live operational detail that changes and is not part of the fixed geographic or facility record supplied here.

Straight-line distances from Foxwoods

The table below lists every straight-line distance pair that is documented for this venue. All measurements are great-circle distances, meaning the shortest path across the surface of the earth, not a road route.

Why straight-line and road distance differ

A great-circle distance is the shortest arc between two points on the earth's surface. A road route is longer because it must follow the actual transportation network, which bends around terrain, water bodies, and existing infrastructure. In the northeastern United States, the difference is often substantial because of the region's dense but irregular road network, river crossings, and coastal geography.

Foxwoods sits inland in southeastern Connecticut, away from the interstate corridors that run along the coast and through the center of the state. A driver approaching from Boston, New York, or Philadelphia must leave the main highway system and follow secondary roads through wooded, hilly terrain. The straight-line figure to Boston is 76.8 miles, but the road route is longer because no direct road follows that line.

Water bodies also add distance. Long Island Sound lies south of the venue, and any approach from Long Island or coastal Connecticut requires either a ferry crossing or a long detour around the sound. The straight-line distance to New York City is 118.9 miles, but the road route crosses either the Throgs Neck or Whitestone Bridge, adds mileage through the Bronx and Westchester, and then follows I-95 northeast before turning inland.

Regional orientation of Ledyard, Connecticut

Ledyard is in New London County, in the southeastern corner of Connecticut. The town sits north of the coastal city of New London and west of the Rhode Island border. Foxwoods is positioned in a rural, wooded part of the town, away from the shoreline and away from the state's major north-south highway corridor.

Relative to major regional anchors, the venue is east of Hartford, southeast of Worcester, southwest of Providence, and northeast of New York City. The straight-line distances to Boston (76.8 miles) and New York City (118.9 miles) place it roughly between the two metropolitan areas, though closer to Boston in a straight line. The distance to Philadelphia (198.0 miles) and Washington DC (320.5 miles) extends the reach further down the eastern seaboard.

How to measure from your own starting point

The venue's position is fixed. Your starting point is not. If you want to know how far Foxwoods is from where you are, you need your own coordinates or a mapping tool that accepts the venue's documented latitude and longitude: 41.47388889, -71.95805556.

You can enter those coordinates into any mapping application to get a road route, a driving distance, and a travel time from your location. The straight-line distances in the table above are reference values only. They tell you which major cities are closest to the venue and how it sits relative to the rest of the country, but they do not tell you how long it will take to drive there.

What to confirm before you go

Several details about this venue change and are not part of its fixed geographic record. Before travelling, confirm the current table game mix and whether blackjack is offered, the current hours of the table games pit, the minimum and maximum bet limits at any blackjack table, the current hotel room availability and rates, and any entry or parking requirements.

The authoritative channel for current table game information is the venue's own gaming floor or its guest services desk. The venue's published website and its reservations line carry current room and amenity information. Publicly published reference sources document the historical facility figures, but live operations are confirmed only by the property itself.

FAQ

Does Foxwoods have exactly one blackjack table?

The documented facility figure is 53 table games, not one table. That figure does not break down how many of the 53 are blackjack tables, and it is tied to a documented period when the MGM Grand at Foxwoods operated as part of the property. The current table mix is a live operational detail that changes and is confirmed only by the venue itself.

How far is Foxwoods from New York City?

The straight-line distance is 118.9 miles. Road distance is longer because no direct road follows that line and the route crosses Long Island Sound or its bridges. This article does not publish driving mileage or travel time. Use the venue's coordinates in a mapping tool to get a road route from your starting point.
