New Buffalo Casino Sportsbook Lounge

The Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo, Michigan, has officially opened new retail sports betting lounge, and it did so just in time for the college and professional football seasons.

This new sportsbook lounge is expected to attract bettors from across the state and will allow Four Winds to see a huge boost in revenue.

There has been retail sports betting at Four Winds Casino for more than a year, but there hasn’t been a place for sports bettors to gather. Construction on this new sportsbook has been ongoing, and it was finally completed enough to open the doors to the public.

The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians owns and operators Four Wind Casino, and it has already made a name for itself in the Michigan sports betting scene. Online sports betting has carried the industry since it launched in January, but there is still a chance to put up impressive numbers with retail sports betting.

Sports betting won’t be the only major feature at this new sportsbook lounge as this will also be a popular place to watch sporting events. Twenty-two big screen televisions have been installed in the lounge, and there are eight of these televisions that have an 85-inch screen.

There have been sports betting kiosks set up on-site there for months, and that is where the entrance to the new sports betting lounge is located. There is also a restaurant available and many different seating options for guests to enjoy.

One unique feature of the Four Winds betting experience is that it has a website that allows bettors to put together their bets before stepping foot inside of the sports betting lounge. Those bets cannot be made through the website, but that does allow bettors to submit the wagers as soon as they get inside.

Sports betting numbers fell in July, but with the new football season nearly here, Michigan is expecting to start hitting high numbers again.

FireKeepers Casino Sees Massive Upgrade

The Four Winds Casino is not the only property in Michigan that is getting an upgrade, as the FireKeepers Casino Hotel has improved massively as well. There isn’t a new sportsbook lounge being unveiled at FireKeepers, but a new hotel should allow more guests to visit the retail sportsbook.

FireKeepers has been busy over the last few weeks as it just launched an online casino and an online sportsbook. That hasn’t kept the tribe from improving the facilities that are currently there, and it should allow this site to be one of the top gaming options in the state.

The Potawatomi Indians are also in control of the FireKeepers Casino, and this native American tribe continues to look out for its guests. There are six different types of rooms available in the new hotel tower that just opened, giving guests a chance to choose their own amenities.

FireKeepers is known for opening the first retail sportsbook owned by a Native American tribe in the state of Michigan. That occurred all the way back in the summer of 2020, as nearly everything else in the state was completely shut down.
