Muscogee (Creek) Nation Principal Chief George Tiger recently announced the tribe soon will break ground on a million golf-themed entertainment complex at the RiverWalk Crossing in Jenks, Oklahoma, a southern suburb of Tulsa. The 20-acre property, located directly across the Arkansas River from the Creek’s River Spirit Casino and Margaritaville development, will feature high-tech golf including an indoor electronic driving range, family-oriented games, restaurants, a sports bar and meeting space.
Tiger said the tribe will give $11 million for the project and investors will provide the other $11 million. “There’s nothing like it in the state of Oklahoma,” Tiger said.
Creek Nation purchased RiverWalk Crossing, built in 2005, for $11.5 million in 2012 after it went into foreclosure. With few businesses currently located at the center, Tiger said the new project will result in “a new, improved Riverwalk Crossing and a great partner for Margaritaville.”
