Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Organization Station Casinos LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the "Company" or "Station"), is a gaming and entertainment company that owns and operates nine major hotel/casino properties and ten smaller casino properties (three of which are 50% owned) in the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The Company also manages a casino in Sonoma County, California and a casino in Allegan County in southwestern Michigan, both on behalf of Native American tribes. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been made. The interim results reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates incorporated into the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets, the estimated cash flows and other factors used in assessing the recoverability of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, the estimated fair values of certain assets related to write-downs and impairments, the estimated reserve for self-insured insurance claims, the estimated costs associated with the Company's player rewards program and the estimated liabilities related to litigation, claims and assessments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The amounts shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries and MPM Enterprises, LLC ("MPM"), which is a 50% owned, consolidated variable interest entity ("VIE") that manages Gun Lake Casino. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company consolidates MPM because it directs the activities of MPM that most significantly impact MPM's economic performance and has the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb losses that are significant to MPM. The assets of MPM reflected in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 included intangible assets of $29.4 million and $31.9 million, respectively, and receivables of $3.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively. MPM's assets may be used only to settle MPM's obligations, and MPM's beneficial interest holders have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. The Company has various other investments in 50% owned joint ventures which are accounted for using the equity method, including its three 50% owned smaller casino properties and a joint venture which owns undeveloped land in North Las Vegas. Equity method investments at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 also included $7.6 million and $8.8 million, respectively, of investments in certain restaurants at the Company's properties which are considered to be VIEs, of which Station is not the primary beneficiary. Third party holdings of equity interests in the Company's consolidated subsidiaries are referred to herein as noncontrolling interests. The portion of net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is presented separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, and the portion of members' equity attributable to noncontrolling interests is presented separately on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year have been reclassified to be consistent with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income. Discontinued Operations During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company's majority-owned consolidated subsidiary, Fertitta Interactive LLC ("Fertitta Interactive"), ceased operations. The results of operations of Fertitta Interactive are reported in discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods presented, and the assets and liabilities of Fertitta Interactive are reported separately in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have not been adjusted for discontinued operations. See Note 2 for additional information. Assets Held for Sale The Company classifies assets as held for sale when an asset or asset group meets all of the held for sale criteria in the accounting guidance for impairment and disposal of long-lived assets. Assets held for sale are initially measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. At March 31, 2015, assets held for sale primarily represented undeveloped land in Las Vegas, Nevada that is under contract and is expected to be sold within one year. The contracted selling price of the land less cost to sell was greater than its carrying amount at March 31, 2015 and accordingly, no loss was recognized upon its reclassification to held for sale. Income Taxes The Company is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax purposes and as such, is a pass-through entity and is not liable for income tax in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the Company has no liability associated with uncertain tax positions. Significant Accounting Policies A description of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in Item 8 of its Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Recently Issued and Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued amended accounting guidance that changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and expands disclosure requirements for disposals that do not meet the discontinued operations criteria. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2015, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In May 2014, the FASB issued a new accounting standard for revenue recognition which requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard supersedes the existing accounting guidance for revenue recognition, including industry-specific guidance, and amends certain accounting guidance for recognition of gains and losses on the transfer of non-financial assets. For public companies, the new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Upon adoption, financial statement issuers may elect to apply the new standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or using a modified retrospective approach by recognizing the cumulative effect of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures. The Company will adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations, and has not yet determined which adoption method it will elect. In April 2015, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance that changes the balance sheet presentation of debt issuance costs. Under the amended guidance, debt issuance costs will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. For public companies, the new guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 (including interim periods within those fiscal years), and is required to be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2016. Upon adoption, approximately $20 million in debt issuance costs which are currently included in other assets will be reclassified as a direct deduction from the related debt liabilities. The adoption will have no effect on the Company's results of operations. A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting guidance is currently under study by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed accounting guidance, the Company has not yet determined the effect, if any, that the implementation of such proposed accounting guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
