The original Sam's Town opened on April 1, 1979 and it was one of the first locals casinos to open in the Las Vegas Valley. Over the next 21 years, Sam's Town would undergo eight expansions. In 1994, its original hotel rooms were demolished for an expansion which added a high-rise tower with 650 rooms, along with Mystic Falls.

An $86 million renovation and expansion project took place in 2000, toning down the property's country theme while adding more casino space, a buffet, a pool, and a parking garage.The project also added an 18-screen Century Theatres facility, and a 1,050-seat showroom known as Sam's Town Live.Sam's Town is part of the Boulder Strip.From 1980 to 1999 the studios of Nevada Public Radio were located in a separate building on the property.

The 2006 album Sam's Town by The Killers was named after the casino.

In 2023 Sam's Town became the last known casino to remove Full Pay Deuces Wild Video Poker from their casino, a variant of video poker known for its vulnerability to advantage play, essentially making it an extinct version of the game of video poker.
