Pinnacle Announces Sugarcane Bay Hotel/Casino
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels
It's been less than a year since a series of hurricanes devastated the South. Now, we are seeing the second major announcement of a casino in less than two weeks. Trump is headed to Mississippi and Pinnacle Entertainment, which we have written about before regarding their plans for the St. Louis waterfront, will build a new $350 million casino resort in Lake Charles, Louisiana. The new resort will replace the Harrah's Lake Charles which was destroyed during Hurricane Rita and is located adjacent to L'Auberge du Lac Hotel & Casino. The new project, Sugarcane Bay will have a Caribbean theme. L'Auberge and Sugarcane Bay will be connected and the new project will have a riverboat casino with a poker room. Construction will begin in 2007 with plans for a 2009 opening. You can watch video coverage of the announcement here.
