It includes a hotel resort, outdoor gardens, an aquadome, and entertainment stages. This will make Gun Lake Casino one of the most modern and biggest facilities in Michigan. The hotel will have 252 rooms and a 32,000 sq. ft. indoor pool complex. It will include tropical vegetation and two pools enclosed by a glass atrium that allows the daylight in.
