Naskila Casino’s temporary facility in Polk County now open
Summary
The Alabama-Coushatta Tribe’s temporary casino in Polk County, Texas, opened on Tuesday, featuring 300 gaming machines and a dining facility, operating 24/7. Tribal Council Chairman Ricky Sylestine highlighted the opening as a milestone following a Supreme Court victory in 2022. The temporary facility has created 100 jobs and generates revenue for the tribe and Polk County, supporting housing, education, and healthcare initiatives. Interim General Manager Keith Sherer emphasized the casino’s convenience compared to the tribe’s main property. Construction on the permanent resort continues, with plans to open between October and December 2028, followed by a hotel and pool in 2029.
