Michigan’s Little River Casino Resort, owned by the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, is in the midst of a property-wide renovation aimed at enhancing the guest experience, with full completion expected in early April.

The project includes upgrades across gaming, dining, and sportsbook areas. The resort’s upscale Heron restaurant has completed renovations and is now open, offering updated décor and a menu highlighting local flavours.

The sportsbook area has also been fully revamped, providing a redesigned space for sports betting and live-action viewing.

Renovations to the main gaming floor are about 75% complete, featuring updated décor, improved lighting, and a new sound system. The upgraded floor includes an expanded selection of slot machines and a more modern gaming environment.

A new smoking gaming area is scheduled to open in early April and will feature popular slot machines, according to the resort. The investment marks a new phase for the property, expected to enhance the guest experience.

“We are dedicated to providing our guests with exceptional experiences at every turn,” said Michael Schrader, general manager of Little River Casino Resort.
