The Four Winds Casinos are a set of casinos located in the states of Indiana and Michigan in the United States. The casinos are owned by the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians. The primary property is located in New Buffalo Township, Michigan, with satellite locations in Hartford, Michigan; Dowagiac, Michigan; and South Bend, Indiana.

Four Winds Casino Resort New Buffalo is about halfway between my home in Illinois and my family in Michigan. Therefore, we meet at Four Winds every once in a while. Last weekend, my family and I dined at Timbers, a quick food restaurant inside the resort, for lunch. The food was far better than expected. Casino Shuttle provides line runs and charter transportation to the Four Winds Casino Resorts in New Buffalo, Michigan and South Bend, Indiana. Special fall and winter group trip promotion!!!

History[edit]

In 2007, as a federally recognized tribe, the Pokagon Band were able to develop and Four Winds New Buffalo on the Pokagon Reservation, in New Buffalo Township in accordance with the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act and a compact with Michigan.[1][2] A second, satellite casino, Four Winds Hartford, opened on August 30, 2011,[3] and a third, Four Winds Dowagiac,[4] opened April 30, 2013.[5][6]

The band was limited to three casinos by its 2008 compact with the state of Michigan. It has since constructed a casino on lands that it claimed qualified for gaming pursuant to specific provisions of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, in South Bend, Indiana.[7] The band announced plans in 2012 to build this 164-acre 'tribal village', which includes housing, healthcare, and government facilities, and a casino and hotel.[8] Four Winds South Bend opened January 16, 2018.[9][10]
