How Far to Foxwoods Casino: Fixed Location and Straight-Line Distance Table

Foxwoods Resort Casino sits 118.9 miles straight-line from NYC, 118.9 miles straight-line from Manhattan, and 320.5 miles straight-line from Washington DC. Road distance is longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

For this question, the fixed part is the venue: Foxwoods Resort Casino is in Ledyard, Connecticut, at documented coordinates 41.47388889, -71.95805556. What changes from reader to reader is the starting point, so the most reliable way to read any mileage here is as a great-circle reference, not as a route plan.

Where the venue is fixed on the map

Publicly published reference sources place Foxwoods Resort Casino in Ledyard, Connecticut. The documented ownership description says it is owned and operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation on their reservation in Ledyard, Connecticut.

The coordinates place the venue in the northeastern United States, in Connecticut. From coordinates alone, you can also say it lies east of places with more westerly longitudes such as Chicago and Charlotte, and north of places with lower latitudes such as Washington DC, Charlotte, Houston, and New Orleans.

Facility figures are a snapshot rather than a live status report, but they help explain the scale of the place a reader is trying to locate. Publicly published reference sources describe more than 5,500 slot machines, 2,228 hotel rooms, and a documented figure of 53 table games for the MGM Grand at Foxwoods amenities listing; figures like these can change as properties are rebuilt, rebranded, or reconfigured.

Documented straight-line distances to Foxwoods

The table below lists every injected venue-to-reference pairing available for this venue. Every mileage figure is a great-circle measurement, which means a straight-line map distance rather than a road route.

How to read those miles without mistaking them for a route

Straight-line distance is useful because it fixes one clean geographic relationship between two points. It tells you how far apart the points are across the earth's surface in great-circle terms, which is why it works well for comparison across many origins.

It does not tell you how a real trip unfolds. Actual road mileage becomes longer because routes must follow the available road network, bend around water, respect terrain, cross bridges at limited points, and handle state-line transitions through the connections that exist rather than through a perfect straight line.

That matters especially in the northeastern United States, where coastlines, rivers, developed urban areas, and inherited road patterns often make route geometry less direct than the map line suggests. So if your question is really about planning a trip, use the straight-line table to understand relative position first, then check a live mapping service from your own starting point for the current route.

How to get to Foxwoods casino, in the only way this article can document

If you searched for how to get to Foxwoods casino, the documented part is the destination, not a turn-by-turn path. The venue is fixed in Ledyard, Connecticut, and the coordinates 41.47388889, -71.95805556 are the most precise location detail available here.

From there, your own route depends on where you are starting, what roads are available that day, and whether your trip includes state crossings, urban approaches, or coastal detours. Because this article does not publish road mileage, route numbers, exits, or travel time, the practical next step is to enter the venue name or coordinates into your preferred map service and compare the live route it returns.

Regional position in plain terms

Within the supplied facts, the clearest geographic description is simple: Foxwoods Resort Casino is in Ledyard, Connecticut. Compared with reference points in the distance matrix, it is much closer in straight-line terms to NYC at 118.9 miles and Washington DC at 320.5 miles than to western reference points such as San Francisco at 2659.3 miles or Sacramento at 2592.5 miles.

The same table also shows a northern cross-border relationship to Toronto at 406.5 miles straight-line and to Niagara-area references such as casino niagara at 380.2 miles and fallsview at 380.6 miles straight-line. These figures do not create a route, but they do place the venue clearly within an eastern North American context.

What to confirm before you go

Before spending money on a trip, confirm the live items that a fixed-location article cannot safely publish. That includes the route from your exact starting point, any current access changes, parking arrangements, hotel availability, and venue-specific operating details.

The authoritative current answers live on the property's own contact and visitor-information channels and on live mapping services. If you are booking an overnight stay, also confirm which hotel tower you are using, because room inventory and property layouts can change over time even when the overall venue name stays the same.

One more point to verify is naming. Ownership and branding of casino properties can change, and some facility figures in public references describe parts of a resort at a particular moment rather than the entire property forever.
