US.- The Muscogee Nation and the Muscogee Nation Gaming Enterprises have held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the opening of the Coweta Casino Hotel in Oklahoma. The venue is located on 17 acres at the southeast corner of East 131st Street South and State Highway 51 in Coweta.
The 104,000-square-foot development features a 35,000-square-foot casino with 750 gaming machines. It also features a 46-room hotel with a pool, fitness centre, a meeting and event space and a 150-seat restaurant. Muscogee Nation Gaming Enterprises began construction in November 2024.
Principal Chief David Hill said: “The Coweta Casino Hotel represents a significant milestone. Through capital investments, we honor our heritage by ensuring that lives are improved, opportunities are created and a better future becomes possible for all. This development strengthens regional tourism and welcomes visitors from across Oklahoma and beyond, offering premier entertainment and hospitality while showcasing the beauty of our land and the culture of our citizens.”
Pat Crofts, CEO of Muscogee Nation Gaming Enterprises, added: “Since announcing this project, we have often been asked, ‘Why Coweta?’ The answer is straightforward. The City of Coweta is experiencing sustained growth, and Wagoner County continues to gain momentum as an important part of the Tulsa metropolitan area. Where population grows, demand for entertainment, hospitality and tourism follows. Accessibility, growth and strong community partnership all matter when making an investment of this scale, and Coweta represents each of those in a meaningful way. That is why we chose to invest here.”
