Jamestown, CA – Earlier this year, Chicken Ranch Rancheria Me-Wuk Indians of California unveiled their plans for the new Chicken Ranch Casino Resort. This month, site work for this state-of-the-art property began. Slated to open in late 2023, this ground up property, located near the Casino’s current location, will be the very first of its kind in the area.
While many details of the project are yet to be announced, the community and guests traveling to the nearby Yosemite National Park, can anticipate a new spectacular Casino Resort experience. Unparalleled views are infused throughout the entire design, and highlighted from Casino floor, 190 key 9-story Hotel, 9,600 sf Convention Center, and many world-class resort-style amenities that are sure to attract local guests and travelers alike. Chicken Ranch Casino & Resort will be the premier destination for leisurely travel, corporate events, and memorable celebrations. During the construction of the new project, the current Chicken Ranch Casino will still be available for their guests and travelers.
