Muscogee Nation Breaks Ground on New Eufaula Hotel & Casino

Muscogee Nation Gaming Enterprises broke ground on a 78,000 sq. ft. Casino & Hotel in Eufaula. In addition to the 500 new state-of-the art gaming machines and Player’s Club in the 20,500 sq. ft. casino floor, the development will feature a modern, three-story, 46-room hotel with premier suites, concierge services, fitness center and full-service restaurant. This will be MNGE’s first hotel & casino development since River Spirit in Tulsa. “This project is more than just a new business venture,” Muscogee Nation Principal Chief David Hill said. “It is a testament to our commitment to growing our economic development capacity, expanding cultural tourism, creating jobs and enhancing the quality of life for our citizens.”
