Casino Resorts

When the warm, fragrant summer breezes arise, it’s playtime in lazy rivers and outdoor pools at Golden Nugget Casino Resort, L’Auberge Casino Resort, and Delta Downs Racetrack Casino Hotel.

When you walk through the majestic entrance of L’Auberge, to the right, the L Bar awaits with muted greens and blues mixed in with brass creating a calming sensation – the perfect place to enjoy a specialty cocktail, fine wine, craft beer or an old favorite. Other amenities include a lazy river and lounging areas outside in the tropical oasis environment with a swim-up bar. Meanwhile, the serene adults-only pool offers luxurious cabanas and full-bar service. You can also sign up for a deep dive into luxury with a spa day at Spa du Lac! For dining, Ember Grille & Wine Bar is always on point with its upscale atmosphere and exquisite dishes, and you can choose from a variety of other restaurants as well from Favorites Southern Kitchen, Asia, Modern Pantry, or the Barstools Sportsbook experience for sports betting.

Nearby, you can walk outside to the boardwalk area and stroll along the lake to Golden Nugget Lake Charles. The Golden Nugget’s bright reds and golds contrast with the more Texas Hill Country experience at L’Auberge. The glitz of Las Vegas stands out with flowy bubble chandeliers reminiscent of champagne dancing on the ceiling. Golden Nugget boasts all Landry’s restaurants throughout the property. There is no shortage of delicious food at every turn. The darling restaurant is Vic & Anthony’s where people can celebrate special occasions and enjoy an extensive wine list. A variety of restaurants are sprinkled throughout the property: Bill’s Bar & Burger on the beach, Chart House, Grotto, Landry’s Seafood House, Lillie’s Asian Cuisine, Cadillac Mexican Kitchen & Tequila Bar, and Saltgrass Steakhouse.

On the west side of the parish, Delta Downs Racetrack Casino & Hotel adds its unique flavor to the gaming scene in the Lake Charles area. While the property features Rosewater Grill & Tavern with signature cocktails, steaks and Cajun/ Creole flavors on recipes, you can also check out the Clubhouse, a new dining experience, and other dining options on site. In addition to playing the wide variety of slots, you can check out the horseracing during racing season and place your bets! But, for sure, you can bet on having a good time.
