Majestically overlooking the Pacific Ocean from the Lincoln City shore, the 157,000 square foot Chinook Winds Casino Resort is Oregon's premier Casino. Owned and operated by the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians of Oregon, the spirit of the Tribe is captured in the decor of the facility. Chinook Winds Casino Resort opened in 1995. The Casino includes a waterfall flowing to a pond (designed to resemble Euchre Creek, an important area to the Siletz tribe) where "wishers" can toss their coins for good luck and make a contribution to the Tribe's educational fund. The round lobby and weave design painted on the exterior give tribute to the tribe's traditional basket weaving techniques. Salmon, a fish that plays a special and important role in the history of the tribe, decorates many of the interior and exterior areas. The casino is a Las Vegas-style facility with more than 1,100 slot machines, along with keno, bingo, craps, roulette, blackjack and poker. The convention center has 37,000 square feet of meeting space. The "Concerts by the Sea" showroom seats more than 1,200 people and features monthly headline acts. For reservation: leihosmillo@msn.com
