Sonoma County’s gaming landscape is reaching a new level of competition as the Graton Resort and Casino prepares to debut a massive $1 billion expansion.
Owned by the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria—comprising Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo tribes—the resort is upping its ante as potential new casino competition looms in nearby Windsor.
Set to officially open May 4, the expansion is described as both “Vegas-class” and world-class, featuring a high-tech casino section defined by vibrant colors and modern glitz.
In a significant shift for tribal gaming, which often allows smoking on sovereign land, the new wing will be entirely smoke-free.
