An expansion of the casino resort is underway and the expanded gaming floor was unveiled on August 18 which now spans more than 98,000 square feet and includes 1,900 slot machines, 27 table games, a new high limit area, an additional cage and cashier area. Slated for completion in the first quarter of 2023, additional amenities of Four Winds South Bend will include a 23-story hotel tower with 317 rooms, including 83 suites. There will also be a spa, convention area, meeting space, a ballroom, lounge, bar & grille, an outdoor third floor swimming pool, and terraces with spectacular views.
Frank Freedman, Chief Operating Officer of Four Winds Casinos provided the tour and highlighted the expansion by making stops at several areas of the expansion including the newly named Cedar Spa, which will offer a variety of traditional and unique spa therapies including steam rooms, saunas, and vitality pools as well as separate lounges for women and men.

More details on experiences and services as well as treatment packages will be announced at the time of opening.
Commenting on the progress of construction, Freedman, said, “With much of the exterior work now complete, we are excited to focus our attention to the interior features and finishes that our guests will enjoy as part of their overall entertainment experience at Four Winds South Bend. We are also excited to provide some initial details on Cedar Spa, which we believe will be a very attractive amenity. We hope the South Bend community shares in our excitement as we prepare for the unveiling early next year.”
