The 35,000 square foot casino is expected to open in the spring of 2026.

The Muscogee Nation announced plans to break ground in September on a $100 million casino in Coweta.

The 35,000-square-foot casino will include a hotel with 46 upscale rooms, a pool, a fitness center and more, according to officials. The new casino and hotel will create 250 new jobs.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Coweta had a population of almost 11,000 in 2023 and is the second-fastest growing city in the Tulsa metropolitan area.

The Coweta Casino Hotel is expected to open in spring 2026.
