After eight months of construction, the $100 million “Next Level” expansion at Wildhorse Resort & Casino is beginning to take shape as crews work to transform the eastern Oregon gaming destination into a major regional hub capable of hosting large-scale events and extended family stays.

The ambitious project involves replacing the historic 28-year-old Courtyard Hotel with a new 10-story tower featuring 214 rooms, including standard, luxury, and executive suites. The expansion will double the resort’s lodging capacity to over 400 keys and triple its event space to better accommodate larger gatherings.

“We’re really excited about what we’ve been able to do with the property here in eastern Oregon and Pendleton, Oregon,” said Gary George, CEO of Wildhorse Resort and Casino.
