Connecticut is home to some of the first and largest casinos in America.

Mohegan Sun Resort Casino and Spa is our pick for the ideal getaway. With Project Horizon (a $740 million rennovation) in progress, Mohegan Sun might knock other Mega Resorts out of the water when it comes to entertainment.

Celebrities like Michael Jordan, Todd English and Jasper White all own restaurants here and Justin Timberlake, Cher, and Gwen Stefani have all graced the stage at the Mohegan Sun.

Enjoy the classic beach tune "Under the Boardwalk" sung by podsafe artist Bob Rowe.
