The Gun Lake Tribe recently announced a $300 million expansion project at its Gun Lake Casino near Wayland, Michigan. Tribal officials said the project will be the largest expansion since the casino opened in 2011. Work will begin when a $100 million, 76,000-square-foot addition is completed this summer.
The 250,000-square-foot expansion will include a 250-room, 4-diamond hotel offering luxury suites, a full-service spa, restaurant and a glass-domed pool with private cabanas and entertainment space.
Sal Semola, president and chief operating officer at Gun Lake Casino, said, “Today’s announcement demonstrates our commitment to maintaining the reputation as a leading entertainment and gaming destination in Michigan. As a vital business in Allegan County, we recognize our ability to invest in our local community. The elevation of our offered amenities drives our economy through tourism and directly impacts the livelihood of local citizens through the development of new job opportunities.”
Gun Lake Tribal Chairman Bob Peters said, “The tribe remains steadfastly committed to reinvest in our collective future, for the benefit of tribal citizens, team members and the local community. This will provide even more employment opportunities and enhance Gun Lake Casino’s position as a tourism driver for western Michigan.”
