Exit I-94, just 75 miles from Chicago, and be ready for a surprise: the pastoral setting explodes into action at Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo, where there are 3,000 slots in 130,000 square feet, 100-plus gaming tables, and the Midwest’s only World Poker Tour Poker. Managed by Lakes Entertainment, Inc, for the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, the casino has awarded more than $150 million in jackpots since opening a year and a half ago.

Four Winds boasts six restaurants, one with a wine list topping 400, and four bars. For shopping, you’ll find a variety of shops, specialty boutiques and retail outlets to choose from in the retail promenade.

Big-name entertainment comes to the stage, and hotel accommodations include 165 luxury rooms, suites and celebrity suites with pillow-top mattresses and flat-screen TVs. There’s something for everyone, says general manager Matt Harkness. Who adds that “Credit also has to be given to our outstanding staff that provides a quality of service that goes above and beyond the call of duty.”
