New suites, an overhaul of the existing hotel, and two new aquatic facilities are part of an expansion project planned for the Black Oak Casino Resort in Tuolumne.

Owned and operated by the Tuolumne Band of Me Wuk Indians, plans include a renovation of the 148 existing hotel rooms, an updated hotel exterior, and an additional 48 brand-new suites. In the front of the hotel will be two aquatic facilities. There will be two pools, a pool bar, a large hot tub, a massive television screen to enjoy big games, and a stage for live music. One of the pools will be designed for kids with a splash zone and slides. It will complement the recently opened Elevate jump center that provides family activities for both the community and out-of-town visitors.
