Highway 115 north off the 401 puts you on Fisher Drive at Shorelines Casino Peterborough — 3800 Fisher Drive on Peterborough's east end, a Great Canadian Entertainment property. Monday through Thursday the doors stay locked until 4 PM. Friday through Sunday open at noon — a gap that catches weekday travellers. Entry is 19+ with government-issued photo ID. Guest Services handles Great Canadian Rewards signup on site. Parking is unverified here — confirm on the official GCE Shorelines page before you leave. Below: Fisher Drive routing, building hours versus pit hours, ID at the door, and a numbered path from arrival to slots, live tables, floor terminals, or dinner at Windward or The Buffet.
Shorelines Casino Peterborough sits at the east end of Peterborough — not downtown Crawford Drive. Some third-party listings still show 1400 Crawford Drive. That is not the casino address. Use 3800 Fisher Drive in GPS, ride-share apps, and printed directions.

From the Golden Horseshoe, the usual route is Highway 401 east to Highway 115 north, then Fisher Drive in Peterborough. We do not publish drive times — traffic and season change the math.
From the Ottawa or Kingston corridor, Highway 401 west to 115 north follows the same final leg. Kawarthas cottage visitors often tack one casino night onto a lake weekend without gambling the whole trip.
Sunday departures can line up with a noon floor opening if you want lunch-and-play before the drive home. Weekend traffic on 115 can spike when lake country empties — leaving extra time on the highway.
Monday through Thursday, plan arrival after 4 PM. A Wednesday stop at 2 PM means a locked door.
Friday and Saturday open at noon — slots and electronic table terminals run before live dealer pits fill in for the night. Sunday also opens at noon, which suits a cottage-weekend add-on before the trip home.
The building and the gaming floor do not open on the same clock, so match your arrival to what you actually want to do.

Windward Restaurant and Lounge and The Buffet may close kitchens before the last hour of slot play.
Check the official GCE Shorelines page the same week you visit before you plan around where to leave the car.
Security checks ID at entry. You must be 19 years of age or older with a valid government-issued photo ID in its original form — every visit, main entrance.
Bring the physical document. Photocopies and phone photos of ID are not accepted. Some outdated third-party listings cite the wrong minimum age for Ontario casino floors.
Stop at Guest Services when you want a Great Canadian Rewards card before you play. Membership is free with valid ID — sign up on site or online through Great Canadian Entertainment.
New members may see floor offers like U-Spin. Live terms and eligibility sit on the rewards and promos page.
On a Friday off 115, a first evening looks like this:
Where you head next depends on what you came for.
The slot floor opens with building hours. Denomination ranges and progressive detail are on the operator site — see the games on Fisher Drive page for floor layout.
Live tables run seven named games: Blackjack, Mini Squeeze Baccarat, Roulette, Ultimate Texas Hold'em, Mississippi Stud, Table Bet Blackjack, and Three Card Poker. Pit layout and low-limit timing are on the games on Fisher Drive page.
Floor terminals cover roulette, blackjack, poker variants, baccarat, and electronic craps — on-floor hardware, not browser play. Terminal locations and how to read the screens are on the games on Fisher Drivepage.
Windward Restaurant and Lounge handles modern casual fare at a licenced bar. The Buffet runs themed walk-in nights with no reservations.
On Friday or Saturday, noon opening lets you lunch at The Buffet then move to slots, or play first and eat at Windward later. Venue hours and menus are on the Windward and Buffet page.
Shorelines Casino Peterborough is a Great Canadian Entertainment casino on Fisher Drive — a Shorelines Kawarthas property, not a retrofit of the Kawartha Downs racetrack site.
Shorelines Slots at Kawartha Downs remains a separate address roughly twenty minutes away. That property is slots-only in a racetrack setting — no live tables, no Windward, no Buffet. Peterborough did not simply replace a full casino at Kawartha Downs. The two Shorelines properties answer different weekend plans.
Shorelines Casino Peterborough online lets you play from home in Ontario when you cannot reach Fisher Drive tonight. Your online account does not carry over to a floor visit or Great Canadian Rewards. Registration, deposits, and the online catalogue are on the Shorelines Casino Peterborough online page.
