The Toronto Resort, Seen from Dundas
This page looks at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto for readers who know the room on Highway 5. It covers where the resort sits, what it has that Flamboro does not list, and what to carry to the door.
Part 1
Worth the Longer Trip from Dundas?
Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto sits on the Woodbine Racetrack site in Toronto. From central Dundas it is 57.2 km north-northeast, measured as a straight line. That is not a road distance, and the guide gives no drive time. Flamboro, on the same measure, is 6.8 km northwest.
The resort first opened its doors on June 20, 2023. Its old Casino Woodbine floor now goes by the Grandstand Casino. That floor connects to the newer Expansion Casino. Great Canadian Entertainment runs the resort, as it runs Flamboro, with OLG conducting and managing both.

Part 2
Extras Flamboro Does Not List
A hotel is the plainest difference. It opened on August 1, 2023 and has 400 rooms, so a late night need not end on the highway home. The resort also runs a concert venue called The Theatre.
The Grandstand Casino keeps a poker room for card players, up on Level Two. The loyalty card is Great Canadian Rewards, the same one carried at Flamboro. One card covers both rooms.
Parking is simple on paper. An enclosed garage offers 3,800 self-parking spaces at no charge, and an outdoor lot is also available. Valet runs $20 from Monday to Thursday, rising to $30 from Friday to Sunday. This guide prints no machine or table counts for either venue.
