Ever since it was announced that Lake Charles LA would get another casino, residents have anxiously awaited the ground breaking on the land located adjacent to L'Auberge du Lac Casino.

Just over a year ago, Dan Lee obtained the last Louisiana Gaming License for his Mojito Pointe backed by Creative Casinos.  Last Spring was announced that Dan Lee and Creative Casinos would not be moving forward with the project, so the land and the gaming license has remained up for grabs and Las Vegas Ameristar paid Dan Lee $32.5 million for his Mojito Pointe project.

Today breaking news from the Louisiana Gaming Control Board was shared,  allowing all business interests to be transferred from Creative Casinos to Ameristar Casinos, including the state’s last riverboat gambling license.  This will allow Ameristar to move ahead with construction of a $500 million casino-resort next to Pinnacle Entertainment’s L’Auberge.

Ameristar officials said their development will include a 700-room hotel, an 18-hole golf course, and gambling space on 242 acres that will be leased from the Port of Lake Charles.

Construction is scheduled to begin in mid-July, and the project must be completed within two years.
