Poarch Creek Indians Open Revamped, Expanded Montgomery Casino
December 2, 2015
Wind Creek Montgomery, a dramatically revamped expansion of the former Creek Casino Montgomery, opened Tuesday.
“I cannot adequately express how proud I feel today, when big plans and big dreams have finally come to fruition,” said Stephanie Bryan, Tribal chair/CEO of the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, which owns Wind Creek Montgomery, Wind Creek Wetumpka and Wind Creek Atmore. “The brick and mortar before us is certainly a milestone for the Poarch Creek Indians, but it also represents a team of people – both Tribal and non-Tribal – who worked together hand-in-hand to reach a common goal.”
The property represents a $65 million investment and includes a new 65,000-foot gaming floor, three restaurants with 10,000 feet of dining space, a deluxe swimming pool, a salon and barbershop, and a soon-to-be opened hotel with 123 luxury rooms on 5 floors.
“Wind Creek Casino and Hotel Montgomery is another win for our tribe and our state,” said Tim Martin, president and CEO of Creek Indian Enterprises Development Authority, that oversaw development of the property. “It brings to the Montgomery market family-friendly entertainment that features the best of the South and celebrates our past while embracing the future.”

I am impressed with the progress the tribe has made… Now I wish they would open
The roster up or at least .. Checks should be huge for them this year!!
If it;s anything like the one in Atmore, there is plenty of family friendly activities. You don’t have to gamble, if you don’t want to. More important than anything else is the jobs created. If you don’t like it, don;t support it, its that simple.
One things is for sure! There will be a lot of new jobs for the people in this casino. If you want to gamble you are going to do it anyway. It will help a lot of people. I am not Creek but, I am very proud of what they have done for South Alabama and Northwest Florida. They don’t brag about all the things they do for the community like our elected officials do. You never see their pictures in the news for helping schools in both states or any of the things they do for people. They are making a difference when the politically correct don’t give a damn.
Gambling is “family friendly”? That’s a new one.
Soon to be ariving at the Blue Collar property at Orange Beach.
