In effort to protect the health and safety of all Gun Lake Casino guests and team members, the short-term closure will begin on Monday, March 16, 2020 at 3:00 a.m. and extend through Monday, March 30, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. All casino events, including promotions are canceled during this period.
“Protecting the health and safety of our guests and team members is of utmost importance and our main priority.

Gun Lake Casino proudly stands by its high standards in maintaining a safe and clean environment for the community.
