Riverboat on the Potomac

The Riverboat on the Potomac is built out over the water so it's technically in Maryland, as Maryland owns the Potomac. Originally known as the "Reno" it was bought by Tom & Penny Flanagan and they began offering Keno, both Maryland and Virginia lottery, and eventually off-track betting in 1994. Hurricane Isabel dealt a losing hand on September 18, 2003. The place was destroyed. Here's a picture of it. The establishment was rebuilt, bigger and stronger than ever, but unfortunately Tom didn't live to see the completion of the new building. All dining rooms, decks and the banquet room have beautiful panoramic views of the Potomac River.Maryland ABC store onsite open daily from 9:00am - 12:00am Tuesdays are Prime Rib Night.
